Hi I am Sheen!
This place Looks like a great resource!

Long story short I purchased a fox mustang with a buddy last year. It came built with a tremec trans and kenne bell sc. We decided to gut it, seam weld it, and swap in a sbc 350 stroker with a built 700r4. He's in the process of building the trans now and I'm finishing up the wiring (real easy since it's carbed). Hoping to have it ready for the strip next Spring.

In the meantime I've been looking for a donor car for the 302 driveline. Seems like an sa/fb would make a good candidate. Also considering an fc, mgb, and datsun roadster. Leaning towards the fb due to weight, cost, availability, and rally-x-ability

 

Sounds like you got a plan. The FB is certainly the cheapest option for the swap that I can see.

 

Definitely the cheapest and easiest. Hopefully the most fun! It's been a long time since I've driven an fb, but I do remember it being a blast!

Some pics of the mustang. Not sure if I should switch to carbed or leave it fi. From what I've read the wiring looks really easy either way.









As it sits now:

 

Been doing a good bit of shopping around and settled on an FB.

Problem I'm running into now is the more I test drive them, the less I want to swap one lol. They have so much soul and character stock.

 

Found one! Way too nice to swap. Planning to restore it first (some rust repair) then go from there.

 

Drove 27 hours straight to pick up an '84 fb this weekend. Love it so far!
