time for: The StreetTank thread

[LumpyCheeseman]

like the title says, its about time for my progress thread. i've started doing stuff and i should prolly document it on here, maybe get me own sticky.

ok, here is teh new rundown (and will get pics as soon as possible):

ford factory headers on their way
dual exhaust waiting for the headers, no h-pipe, glasspacks with pre-axle dumps
set of stock size Goodyear Assurance V-tread tires, very nice, a soft compound, took me a couple tries to break them loose for a smoke show i wish i had on film lol
i've also got some new cb antennas, came off the parts car this weekend. they clip to the edge of the trunk, and the cables run well past the front end of the car lol. just means i will have all the cable length i need when i run them under the seats , carpet, and into the center console i wanna make. i also left my magnet mount on there as well to fuck with people. from the back it looks like an old cop car with all the steel whips

the radio going in is a 1977 Cobra 32XLR, an early 40 channel cb. a very very good radio. also just found another one on ebay....SCORE!!!

and now for the pics i just took with my crappy ass keychain cam

Looks like a nice project. I see you're having pleasant weather as well.

tonight i threw on new plugs and wires, and did the egr removal. i found my exhaust leak. turned out to be one of the air tubes on the cats broke off. so i just cut the other one off too. makes a nice blatblatblat sound for now
she runs a hell of a lot stronger though.

What else ya got planned for it?

[LumpyCheeseman]

i'm gonna see about doing the duals next week whether i have the headers by then or not. and of course i'm gonna replace all my lights with leds.

i should prolly mention that it made me feel reallllllll good to do that work on the car lol. quick question though, seen a post somewhere about mustang headers not lining up with stock exhaust. are the flanges just rotated or are the bolts also spaced differently? was wondering cause the duals that are waiting for me have flanges that arent welded on, so i can spin them round the pipe to accomodate different location if that is the only problem.
