Default Finished the machine work on the Ford GT block

Got the machine work done on the Ford GT block i have. I decided to punch it to a 3.70" bore, and machined the block for the starter provision and a wet sump oiling system.

Don't be confused, this is a seperate build than the teskid based 4V i'm building as well.

I'll post pics when i get it in the next couple weeks.

what kind of retro-mod? at a local car show, i saw a 29 A truck which had the body on hydraulic lifts, and it would lift the rear, hinged on the front to reveal a midmounted cobra 4.6 and transaxle. it was wild. that kind of retro mod? i want to help!

I'm not sure... i'm not really anywhere near starting that build. The engine will be completed and just sitting waiting to go. To be honest, i'm more of a GM guy when it comes to cars, but the GT based engine is one of the best designed engines (in my opinion). I'll find something to put it in, maybe a classic mustang or torino.
