Here is a quick rundown of what I ended up doing with my '66 Mustang coupe:

Engine - Complete rebuild = bore .030 over, Comp 260h cam, port work in the head, 3 angle valve job, port divider, dual outlet header and exhaust from CI, Aluminum valve cover and carb hat from CI. Pertronix ignition and Autolite 1100 carb.
Compression was 95 lbs a cylinder before rebuild....it was tired. Now its 145 per cylinder and 9.7:1 ratio.
Rebuild done by Done Right Engines in N. Royalton Ohio.

Trans - Rebuilt T5 replaces the C4 auto....Figured no better time than now to make this change happen. Conversion parts from Modern Drive Line. Transmission bought local

Its winter here in Ohio so I haven't actually drove it(except backing it in and out of the garage a couple times as a quick test), but it seems like everything is working good. It sounds great and runs excellent.

Comments or questions welcome!

:beer: success your pictures work, that's a great looking Mustang! :nod:
 
Nice pics.
You're gonna love the T-5 on your car. I did the same conversion a few month ago and I love it.
What exhaust pipe size do you have?

Cant wait to drive it!

The exhaust is 1 3/4" pipes. Its what was recommended by Waldron's Exhaust through Classic Inlines when I bought the header and exhaust kit together.
