Kind of excited, tomorrow I'm headed to Lake City to start my next Hurricane build. This time, it will be a GenIIa  ;D

Gen II Hurricane with the a new 2015 style IRS. Pictures to follow. Yes, it will be more period correct than the first one and yes, it will be a Big Block Shelby Side-Oiler FE

Paul, great news. I'm sure you will do your usual good job of documenting the build. Can't wait. Did you sell your current Hurricane?

Nope, driving and enjoying it. Will figure out next plan once both are completed.

That's exciting, Paul!   

What's 2015 style IRS?   Mustang?

What's "Gen IIa"?  I guess I have Gen II "beta" - number HM2008.  What number will yours be?

Not sure how much I can share and not share, so if i have to take this down, my apologies to everyone in advance. Don't have a number assigned yet but I am guessing HM202x-HM203x)

Kind of fun to be working beside Monty, Steve, Jason Hatfield and Jason Kruse, we really are blessed with this team. Alec Daniel is off work this week, took a vacation. Wish he was here, kind of rounds out the team. I see an enthusiasm at Hurricane like the days when they first bought it. I feel there are a lot of good things coming our way, we just have to be patient. (who wants to do that? patience, my ass, I want to gut something}

Initial pics attached. Yes, it is an IRS out of a 2015-2017 Mustang. More to come tomorrow

Paul

ps: have you seen the video by Kirk Curole? That crazy cajun has a smooth tongue  ;D  Great review, Kirk

Is yours the prototype / test mule for the new IRS?

Wow snazzy! Lots of moving parts ...

Think this will retrofit to an earlier Gen II ?

That's one of the highlights, it will bolt onto both GenI and GenII cars. Order one for you?
