Yes ! I have.

Thanks that is really cool.

Now that's what I am talking about. I did not think the boss 9 would fit with the shock towers. As for as the hood who cares, you need that monster to be seen.

 

[Thomas]

What are you doing for a hood?

I am building a hood that hopefully will fit.

My god that is BEAUTIFUL!!!! Keep up the great work and keep us posted on that monster. Cant wait to see more!

I was really kicking around the idea of building a kaase boss when I was doing my 408 Cleveland. But man they are not cheap!

Thomas, looking good, absolutely amazing! I am really looking forward to see your hood finished. Should be interesting, since I've got three hoods and just not sure which one to modify.

Btw, did you modified your mustangs shocktowers? We had an ol' drag racer who had a OEM boss 429 in his Mach 1 between the stock shock towers. It was once in 90 degrees wheelie which ended with broken collectors and oil pan. Car was scary fast.

Is it a 598 boss or how big is it?

 

[Thomas]

I managed to squeeze it down between the original shock towers.

But there is not much space left.

It is a Boss 572.

Yes, I intend to lift up the whole center section.

I've thought about doing that. I need to use a deep air cleaner just to fit my engine under the hood. I feel like my MACH needs more air. It runs great but you know how it is more air more better. Mine MACH is just a 514in. big carb engine. Thanks for showing us how to chop the hood open. "Impressive"

Now I really can't wait to get my 429 in the coupe, that beast looks huge in a not so tiny engine compartment! Can't wait to see the hood all finished!
