1969 Mustang Restomod 408 stroker 500HP

[Ranger0024]

Why 3.55 gears and not 3.73 or 4.10 would really wake it up.

[gja888]

You laugh like a 10 year old cunt!

[Fairlane351C]

Can edit out the girly laughs in the back ground!? and the yankee accent comments.............it had to stop watching it halfway through

[elbichoportu]

Love your car!!! Im finishing a 1969 mustang Restomod coupe. Im thinking in putting the gear vendor unit on my car. Is it worth it? My Mustang has a healthy 302 / C4 / 9 inch possi.

[markbell1969stang]

@elbichoportu

If I had to do it again I would install the new TCI 6 speed automatic. It will truly give you 6 gears. The gear vendor splits all 3 gears but it is very awkward. End result is you only end up using the overdrive for 3rd gear. I have had some issues with the control unit and had to pay big bucks for a new unit. I am still having trouble with it turning off the overdrive after I drive it for any appreciable distance. The TCI 6 speed is very costly but so is the gear vendor.

[abielm123]

this is my dream car so...thumbs uuuuuupppp.. :)

[Trav450ER]

Awesome ride man, what radiator do you have in that? Did you have to do any work to the tranny tunnel to fit the Gear Vender unit?

[markbell1969stang]

@Trav450ER - the radiator is by Be Cool. It is large with 2 electric fans and cooling is never an issue. Hot summer days in traffic with ac on and never a hint of running hot. The gear vendor did not require any tunnel modifications. Just remove tail shaft housing, bolt up gear vendor and cut the drive shaft to fit.

[Vulgrun]

Beautiful car!!

[kremecheez]

Acapulco Blue???

[windrifter3]

Oh , to live in the country! The wide open spaces! Being able to race your car up and down and no cops botherin' ya!

[astuteness]

Beautiful car. I can see you have coil over suspension in the front. Ive thought about it doing to my car which is a daily driver / street car only the negative Ive heard from source is that the bushings rubbing and all the noise and vibration from the suspension transmits inside the car making it noisy is this true.

[markbell1969stang]

astuteness, I do not experience any of those problems with my TCP coil over conversion. All the bushing locations have grease nipples. I like my system and would do it again if I build another Mustang.

[DameonShelby]

all i can say is wow great build guys.

[elbichoportu]

Is the gear vendor overdrive worth the money? or should i just put a AOD on my 69 mustang? Love ur car, I painted mine RX8 Blue!!

[mhcosss]

I like the blue.. That is a beautiful car

[blacknikes93]

Im glad to see its not a trailer queen

[Gutzymustanggirl1]

That car ROCKS!!!!!! I LOVE IT!!!!

[Mach1club]

Search for Mach1Club we would love to have you! Awesome Stang!

[shadeybeast]

that motor is choking with that shitty paper filter

[BrinS1990]

That is a beast, Nice

[zedobernard]

500hp on a 69 ford mustang......DUDE ...u ROCK!!!

[BessJoshEver]

that 408 got some pussy ass burnouts for 500hp.

[russnord]

dude im pretty sure he was going easy on it... he could easily lay wholeshots with that...

[rocketteer121]

why is the guy laughing most of the time??

[skloogerblugin]

trade you..... please?

[thing503]

jesus, you're kicking 500hp without a supercharger on it? don't know a whol lot about the 408, but that's pretty impressive. from the reading i did on it i noticed other people getting a lot out of theirs too.

[TtopFoxRod50]

500hp with a supercharger? I'm pushing over 550hp with my 408 N/A.

[SkateBoardsTasteGood]

Or was that Back window custom

[SkateBoardsTasteGood]

Was that a Mach 1?

[thing503]

no it was a fastback, mach one wasn't out yet

[jasLBJ23]

dude they had the mach 1 in 69 that was the first year. know your car before you spout out false facts. tho not all sportsroofs are mach 1s they did have them in 69

[thing503]

yeah, you're right. lol, i never bothered to look it up, i always figured the mach 1 was that bizarre extremely swept body style that started in the 70's but i guess we learn something every day.

[redghost105]

idk

i think it reached mach 1 though

[AngelusofDeus]

69 is my year Mustang!!

[markbell1969stang]

I had CNS Carbs build me an aerosol blow thru carb that has been modified to have 8 air bleeds. She is now pulling 477 to the tires. phygian previously thought I had 500 to the tires - he should read the info - that was estimated at flywheel. Anyway with 477 rwhp and 508 torque this thing will shred the tires. I can drive along at 40 mph punch it and smoke both BF Goodrich 295 15's

[phrygian360]

so you openly admit to having traction problems??? you sound like a pro for sure. i seriously would have no problem blowing your doors off with a mild small block... here's your clue. money does NOT = fast. know how and experience build speed. keep spinning your tires, i'll see you at the finish line.

[markbell1969stang]

Thanks for the support vinmann66 and saiforymustang. I need to update this video when I get time. I have added a Novi 1500sl polished supercharger with 10 pound pulley, custom ground cam by Cam Motion and converted to hydraulic roller lifters. The mechanical fuel system has been changed to boost referenced aeromotive electric fuel pump system and an MSD BTM ignition box has been added to allow timing variations as the boost comes on.

[saiforymustang]

phrygian360 ur a freaking dumbass just hear the dam engine idiot bet it has more balls than ur inport car

[phrygian360]

i'm the dumbass but you failed to spell "IMPORT" correct? and when did a 1969 falcon 1968 plymouth fury III a 1970 dodge van and an 87 K5 blazer become labeled as "inports?" idiot.

[phrygian360]

ok lets see a burn out with out standing on the brake? lets see the dyno run that proves you got 500 hp at the rear wheels.....

[vinman66]

once you learn how to drive a standard car... you will know that when you have a car with that much torque.. you dont need a brake.. give it some gas and dump the clutch and next thing u know you will be buying new tires. if you listen to how deep the engine sounds.. you can hear the hp growling up the hood.. so stop watching videos on youtube and actually get out and learn something about engines

[phrygian360]

obviously your mother taught you to mouth off before you learned to read. read my comment "vinman" it says "lets see a burnout WITH OUT STANDING ON THE BRAKE" and im so impressed with your knowledge of muscle cars and engines.... "listen to the horse power growl up" start turning wrenches instead of spinning your tires moron.

[untoldguitarist]

Um your retarded phrygian360 he can get over 700Hp out of a 408 stroker with a set of CHI aluminum 225cc heads with a matching intake. And get around 650Hp to the wheels with no problem.

[weewoodeal]

wasit on the brakes...

[phrygian360]

lmfao.... ok mr. "NEUSPEED" very clever screen name, thats the same as the sticker on the side of your neon sport says right? who in the fuck brought up import cars? last i saw was this video of a mustang......

[gpfordstang302]

awesome car! and notice the length of the video lol

[twistedjimbo]

haha good observation!

[xmodrock]

damn.. 6.7L V8

[smokeyjane315]

omg i jus had a orgasm niceeee

[stip27]

orgasm, my dick droped off

[holycruddoesthissuck]

sweet

[sccs9eax]

slow

[metalhead917]

-_-

[HwyPony]

jealous

[adfasdfasdfluy]

i... i... think i just came

[JayGeePee1]

Awesome car!!! I'm frettin' between putting a 408W in an older Mustang Coupe, or a newer Fox body coupe.

[Treyhtown]

how good are the coil overs? Want some for my 69, but idk if they are worth the money

[markbell1969stang]

Well worth the money for me. TCP now makes a set with the 1" Shelby drop built in - no need to drill additional holes. The ride quality and ride height are very adjustable. Mine runs like it's on rails!

[Treyhtown]

How easy is it to install and how much money? I am only 16 and I literally can't afford to fuck up you know. Also, how far can you drop it? I would like mine to sit an inch, maybe 2in lower than yours. Hopefully you can help me out along the way too :)

[SFINX01]

i love this car

[eber222]

ford = ferraille, ordure, résidu et dechet

[mustang347man]

This car isn't in Lincoln, NE is it? Amazing job on the car, it looks/sounds/IS fantastic!

[markbell1969stang]

No it isn't. It's a 1969 mustang - originally a 302 - nothing special. That was what I was looking for so I could modify it without destroying something rare or special. Thanks

[mustang347man]

Ic...a guy has one extremely similar to this from around me. My old man has a 69 mach with a 351W stroked to 383 with fuel injection - same story as you, was just a plain jane fastback so no harm in cutting it up. Mine is a 347 stroked 95 GT - anyways, great car, take care!

[Morgandrag]

The cameraman is enjoing it :)

[poderosov8]

the best musclecar, don´t????

congratulation.

here in Argentina there are only 40 Mustangs... so when i see one it makes me crazy...... byezzzz.......

[mstangsmitty]

weak, I want to see smoke rolling!

[markbell1969stang]

Yea the road I was on didn't lend itself to generating great tire smoke. Lots of tire spinning - just not much smoke

[sparco06]

dude thats sweet

[ANDE2004]

Two words,,,BAD ASS!!

She would look REAL NICE in the garage next to my '79 Stingray...

[NextGenerationMovies]

What is a "Restomod"?

[markbell1969stang]

A restored car with modern upgraded modifications - not factory original. The suspension has been upgraded to coil overs and fully adjustable tubular control arms, the transmission is 6 speed semi auto with custom TCI converter, 4 wheel disc, modern AC system, modified console with ratchet shifter......you know restored but modified modified...restomod.

[NextGenerationMovies]

thanks

[EnemyRCA]

thats sweet dued

[mustangfan00]

beautiful car there

[bigasian19]

she sure is purty

[mrsbuckmaster]

omg that was te prettiest motor i have ever seen lol

[Xarmy187]

amazing car

but that take off was weak

[408Sleeper]

well, 395 to the wheels is pretty damn good. my 408 puts out 405 to the wheels and its more than just a street car. but i do have a 68 stang(coupe). i think its a bit lighter too...

[oscar7869]

Apart from the stroker kit, what more does it have? I have a 1969 mach1 with a 351w and I am trying to find out whats best for my stang.

[markbell1969stang]

Completely blue printed shortblock - decked, line bored, balanced, Ported Brodix aluminum heads, port matched air gap intake, a nice lumpy cam, 770 street avenger carb, 1 7/8" long tube coated headers, 2 1/2" exhaust with H pipe and Spintec mufflers, MSD ignition - all professionally dyno tuned. I am currently researching power adder options i.e. Procharger, Paxton ...

[87iroczzzz]

dude!!!!!

i jus saw that mustang gets its ass kicked by a '69 camaro last week :D

[markbell1969stang]

Maybe one like it - this one is currently in storage. :)

[squirrelfreak700]

Is that Chris Wolf?

[SPHINX144]

Nice ride, I love this type of cars... they've got character.

[markbell1969stang]

Thanks

[NightLarker]

great video of a really nice 69.The toughest of all the Mustangs for me.Love the Cragars SS and the 295 rear tyres,the colour is great too.Fabulous car,thanks

[gulupo]

mmm, is that street made of concrete? that just dont help for the "show". check minute 03:01 and you will see what i mean.

other kind of pavement will obviously help the car "shake" more violently, hehehe

[jon350]

No offense......but for a "500hp" 351 stroker, you're launch sure was slow..and it's not like you were sitting there "frying" the tires, nor was the ramp rate of the engine as fast as a 500hp small block should be. What am I missing here?

[markbell1969stang]

I still have 8" rear end and I eased into it then shifted into 2nd to soon on the first launch. Got on it pretty hard on the last launch in the video. It's estimated at 500 at flywheel considering parasitic loss - On the dyno she put 392 to the tires. It is not a race car just something cool to run the streets. With that said she murders newer GT's at the red lights.

[roguegenin]

wish i had me one of those workin on rebuildin a charger now, but itll never go like that.

[markbell1969stang]

Never thought mine would either. One step at a time and one day in the future it will come together. Remember - Rome wasn't built in a day!

[408Sleeper]

man, that car sounds healthy. what kind of gears does he have in the rear end, is the tranny built, or what?

[markbell1969stang]

3:55 limited slip - Street fighter c4, tci 2800 converter and Gear vender overdrive. It make the tranny a 6 speed semi auto.

[408Sleeper]

the reason i ask that was cause im finishing a 750 hp nitrous 408 windsor. on motor it puts a lil over 500. i just had a custom built C4 with a trans brake. Im thinking of putting a 3400 stall with 3.73 to make it a little streetable. thanks for the reply!

[83merccapri]

hell i know a guy no shit runs a 4500 stall converter and 4:56 gears on the street cruisin every weekend
