    Ifs is like mustang II style. I have a 460 in a falcon and installed Sanderson shortys although had to move the flange back one hole and retube on side. My engine suffers with these. A real header will really help torque and upper rpm power. I use a stainless flex fan on the waterpump, a cicular metal shroud ala streetrod and a elec pusher on front. Ran hot with other combos. I have a temp switch on the front elec. Radiator is a custom vette crossflow with ford tanks 3 row. Still overheated till above combo. Without welding shop tools ,an ifs will be $3000 easy for someone to put one in. I bought my crossmember from rod&custom motorsports. Used old ford and chevy stuff to put it all together, ex granada rotors and monte carlo calipers.

    the IFS packages are great i'd love to get one for my mustang if i could afford it....

    BTW i dont know about using the dremel method on cast iron manifolds if they've cracked and been repaired.... cast iron manifolds tend to break once they've been repaired anyways.....
    just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day
