Roylerumble's Build
Well, it's time to get this build on the way...
I bought a never assembled CRII in May of 2021, spent a while doing some research on them and finding all the parts I needed. Life got in the way, so I'm late getting to it, but finally ready to start the build. Hopefully gonna turn a pile of parts into something over the next while.
Thanks to everyone who's offered advice, experience and knowledge. I'm going to need more along the way for sure.
5.0, T5, 8.8 rear out of 91 mustang. Engine will get a fresh build, stock pistons, mild Trickflow cam, GT40P heads with Trickflow spring kit and rods, Edelbrock RPM airgap intake, Holley Stealth Sniper EFI (if it ever comes off backorder, been that way since March last year),
Rear end will get a complete rebuild, new gears and a posi. Took 5 bolt axles from a Ranger and Aerostar van and SN95 brakes I found from Junkyard doggs on youtube. QA1 coil overs inspired from upgrades I found here. Thanks gents.
Front suspension is Heidts tubular and QA1's with manual rack and GM single piston calipers.
More details as my build progresses...

Good luck! A good winter project, as long as there is sufficient heat in the garage.

Don't know what you intend to run for gears in the 8.8. But I have a used set of 373 gears you can have for the cost of shipping.
They came with a pile of parts when I was restomoding my Mustang. Look in good condition. As I remember, the gentleman went with 410 gears.

Good luck on your CR project  This is the site (To help you) I brought an unfinished CR-1 60% complete, back in 2015, and without the help of these guys, mine would never been finished, (Missing parts, incomplete manual, etc.) The boys here went out of their way, to help with info. parts, everything I needed, and mine came out great  The only issue with the CR kit, is the wiring (All white wires) If I was to build other one, I think I would use a Painless wiring harness, or something like them. Cheers Tom. |
