Right on Thomas. Sounds like 'you done good'. While the motor I put in
my 67 is made for boost, I am putting of the blower until later when I
can afford it. For us 'po' folk, we have to do these things in stages.

I wanted to thank everyone who answered my questions about the
Grab-a-Trak stuff from Mustangs Unlimited.

I wound up buying:

1) Grab-a-Trak Spring and Handling kit (upgraded to the 1-1/8" sway bar
and 5-leaf mid-eye rear springs) (http://tinyurl.com/8ro4t)

2) Grab-a-Trak performance suspension rebuild kit
(http://tinyurl.com/a94ra)

3) Make-it-New Steering Rebuild Kit (http://tinyurl.com/d4w65)

4) 4-Piston Front Disc Brake Conversion Kit (http://tinyurl.com/cakg2)

I talked to Carl at Mustangs Unlimited, and he was awesome to work with.
He actually talked me *out* of some more expensive brake stuff I wanted,
and urged me to have my mechanic call him directly when doing the brake
conversion so he could talk about some of the common gotchas.

So the plan is to pull the motor and tranny, put the car up on the lift
and pull the entire suspension out, sand/wire brush and POR-15 the
underside and engine bay, then put in the 351W and all new suspension
bits in.

The car should be a serious beast when all is said and done... I can't
wait to get into it!

The only bummer is that the blower is really out of my budget now. I've
spent so much more than I expected that the extra $2500 is just not
feasible right now. I guess that will be next year's project! :-)

Cheers,
Thomas
