    Needs rear coils and modern rims. The mustang rims I have would seemingly need 1 3/4" spacers or 2" spacers to fit. I may try to find some good quality 2" spacers all around.. Dunno yet.. That's a bit large..

    Runs eye watering rich at idle, runs great at cruise and great at wide open. Time to battle the Demon.

    That is how you're supposed to jack it.

    Up and down.

      make sure you have the float level right. If its too high, they will run pig rich at idle and you won't be able to adjust it out.

        How it currently sits. Awaiting pilot bearing removal and install, maybe this afternoon..

        It's been sitting like that for about a week and a half. After I started it up and heard a clunk noise coming from the bell housing when I started it up one morning.

                      That looks proper. Is the MSD box still in service, or is it just hanging on for looks?

                          The MSD box is in service. Just relocated from the other fender because of the relay box for the computer. It's running pretty good. We managed to get it to idle pretty well without hunting. The car is definitely gonna have to be tuned, but it is driveable.

                            Well fellas. It's official.


                            John said my car is faster than his. even though I'm using his old intake parts.


                            I have achieved my goal. Time to make it look cool.



                            Oh. Guess the one wheel peels are pretty good. Since third gear has started to whine.

                            If I blow the rear with an open diff. I'll be super excited.

                            And broke.

                                Depends how you drive it. I'm betting it won't last long with him though Drive like an old fart like I do and you can rock a 4 cyl T5 behind a V8 without any trouble.
