Well project 6.8 Expo is coming along nicely. Motor is tore down and have begun port matching the heads and cleaning up and smoothing the horrible casting job ford did inside and out of the intake. Also replacing waterpump and timing belt while it's out and on the stand.
As for the body itself the five k+ stereo wreaked havoc on the roof. All supports had been shook loose, so I cut inserts out of 3/4 inch plywood and with alot of liquid nails frp flooring adhesive, scissor jacks, bottle jacks, and patience,(each panel took two days to fully dry) the roof as as solid as can be. Estimated power levels after build should be around 12-15k via a custom dual altenator setup. Will have pics soon
