Here is a couple projects going on at psi ..


First .. our 1966 mustang ..

This car was orignaly a 6 cylinder with a clean interior that the previous onwer had restored and installed a v-8 302 and c-4 into.

We pulled the dive train and started with removal of the inner fenders followed by tig welding in a new fabed up cross member and short long arm front suspenion with biller coilovers and willwood 13 inch brakes

For the rear we removed the leaf springs and installed a four bar kit with rear crossmember and pan hard bar along with another set of 13 inch willwood brakes.

For wheels we went with chip foose nitrous limited editions in gunmetal grey 20x10 front and 20x11 rear 275 front and in the rear we will be runnign 345 30 20 but temporarily since they were out of stock it has 305 35 20's

Drive train will be a a-4 block 347 with will burt cnc ported high port heads tfs box intake and one of our psi turbo kits with a t-76 turbo fed by a fast dfi fuel injection and our own fabed up tank and fuel system.

The second project is a 89 convertible being assembled to show case our turbo kits and show what can be done with a reasonable budget with well thought out modification plan over time..

this car could be build by anyone one step at a time over time in relativly small steps and you would end up with a exceptional car..

Originaly a four cylinder car it was converted by the previous owner to v-8 without any suspension upgrades and while this makes for a nice low looking stance the resulting ride is horendous with lots of float and poor handleing.

The fuel system was also rigged by the previous owner and is being replaced with new line and a 255 in tank pump.

We have installed eibach sway bars and poly bushing kit KYB shocks and struts along with eibach pro kit springs and a set of economy rear control arms.

A pro 5.0 shifter was installed and a spec stage 2 + clutch

The motor was pulled and the accesories and intake all sand blasted and painted to match the cars yellow and black paint scheme and the engine compartment was taped off and painted as well in black since the firewall was still the original maroon.

We then added Air flow research 165 cc heads with bolt down 1.6 ratio roller rockers and a E-303 cam and then covered the rockers with a set of motorsport efi valve covers.

We installed a 70 mm T body as well and are adding 42 pound inectors in preperation for the turbo kit.

The short block remains the stock short block that came with the car with forged factory pistons.

A ford motorsport aluminum drive shaft was added and the rear was treated to a set of 3.31 gears < in prepration for the turbo > and a new traction lock and some ranger 5 lug axles and drums..
the entire rear end was rebuilt including all new hardware for the brakes and new hard lines on the rear end for brakes as well

The front end was converted using svo 5 lug rotors and stock 89 v-8 calipers
The brakes were then treated to a hawk brake upgrade kit consisting of braided lines and hawk arbotic brake pads for the front and rear shoes for the drums.
New drums and calipers were installed after beign painted yellow along with new parking brakes and cables as the previous owner had not installed or hooked up the brakes to the v-8 rear end during his conversion

For wheels we are going with the old stnadby 95 cobnra r 17 inch 5 lug along with 275-40-17 et street drag radials in the rear and 245 45 17 front tires.

The car is still under construction with the motor going back in this weekend then the fuel upgrades and the custom exhaust being done next week and by next weekend it should be running.
We expect some where close to 500 rwhp from this car and it should be a blast to drive and a corner carver.

here are some pics of the 89 in progress.

I don't care for them either, to me it looks like they belong on a lowrider's Cadillac, but hey, to each their own.

I just have that mind set (I'm sure Kat does too) that a muscle car should look like a muscle car, and to me, that looks like a lowrider...but whatever makes you happy!

[timpryor]

i think they will look awesome ONCE the cars paint and body is done.

[egomez24]

I'm not too hot on the wheels but the car is gonna look sick otherwise

[95 GTS]

The 66 would look absolutely sick with some kind of matte finish, though I doubt the owner will go that direction.

[psiperformance]

the 66 at the moment is on the fence on the color scheme thinking about
strawbery metalic with ghost pearl gt-500 stripes
bright metalic poly blue .. similar to the old bimini blue color on fox bodys a sky blue with lots of metalic

or titanium with gun metal stripes same color as the wheels

[95 GTS]

Titanium!!

[psiperformance]

it made 505 rwhp 510 rwtq stock short block afr 165 heads and cobra intake with 70 mm t body + our turbo kit.
