#5150 3L build

[Smalls]

So here's a little background on this car. One of the first owners of this car was a CEG'er on here. He installed konis with eibachs, a b&m shifter, nyceboi emblem, and a few other mods. nothing crazy. anyways, a friend of mine at a local ford dealer picked this up on a trade and decided to keep it for himself. he had the court ordered breathalyzer installed and drove it for a few weeks. this guy is one of those 40 year old affliction wearing guys thats all tatted up and rides a chopper as a DD. so needless to say, he realized that the svt wasnt for him and sold it to another buddy of mine to buy an old trans am. go figure. anyways, my buddy picked this up and beat the crap out of it for a few months. in this time, i installed an alternator, a PS pump, a headunit, fixed a ton of jacked up wiring from the breathalyzer, and few other things. well, he got in a fight one night and peeled out of the parking lot where he was at and next thing ya know, the engines knocking. he called me up and asked if i wanted to buy it. so $1000 later, i get to drive this knocking beauty home.


2 miles up the road, after just getting on the interstate. BAM!


AAA hates me


But we made it back home in mostly one piece. We collected the other pieces that were scattered all over the highway


Yanked that bad •••••


And got to working on the nice, low mile 3L i picked up this morning from Joker on the boards


Before-


After-


A lot of people on here use those tiny little carbide bits that make huge gouges and real uneven ports. i found a pretty good solution



Thats all of the progress so far. I've seen enough contour stuff for one day

The detail about the car's history/owners is great. I really got a kick out of this line.

he realized that the svt wasnt for him and sold it to another buddy of mine to buy an old trans am. go figure.

Looks good!

That bit is awesome...I would love to have one like that. Seems like it would make the job much faster/clearner.
