this is going to sound stupid, she wants the looks of the mustang
but she is talking about a 6 cylinder model.?????

now if that is what she wants to pay for Im not going to argue ...

but I may try and talk her into a 289, at least that way once its here we can upgrade it to a bigger motor legally ,due to NZ's over protective vehicle modification rules

no digging with the 4200 as we were rudely interrupted by guests bringing beer and steaks.
so dragged the old go cart out and taught the wife what more power means



a few sore heads this morning but no one is dead , so all good.

Oh that's good. The Big block Mustangs are a pain to work on. Pretty much have to pull half the car apart to remove a valve cover let alone do any serious work.lol A 289 or straight 6 will leave some room for your hands between the shock towers at least.

It looks like the carting was fun as well! Friends only show up at our place when they want something....

so, with the 4200 nearing being finished , I stopped working on it and started to finish the thumb for the KAT .
I used a 8mm stainless tube and slid a 5mm solid shaft inside to make a fake cylinder , welded a couple of nuts on the ends.
I drilled a couple of holes in the shaft and used a clip of an old rc car to hold it in place, seems to work.

painted and done.









and because I had some paint left over , I decided to paint the cylinders and the 4200, two more to go.
