Default KB 2.2 here I come!

Yep, I bought a used tuner kit that was previously on a car that was in the 5.0 Mustang mag KOTS contest last year. Blower only has 1500 miles on it and it's polished too! Shortblock and supporting mods will follow soon.

This month will mark the 5th year owning this car. To many, that's a very long time. I'm glad I stuck with mine and will finally build the dream car I've always wanted out of it.

I'm still on the stock block. I'm having the 2.2, built bottom end and everything else done at once. I'm hoping to get as much out of the 2.2L as I can.
