Getting my Driver's side airbag (recall work) done first thing in the morning ...
Instructions say to clean rust off, wet the pipes, put a 1/2"-thick bead of sealant on the pipe, put them together and clamp them, wait 30 minutes, then run the engine for 10 minutes.
Forgot to wet one side, and I waited about 40-45 minutes, then ran the engine for about 15 minutes.
That's the only parts where I deviated from the instructions.
The side I forgot to wet ended up leaking, the other side sealed up ok.
Took the car to the local Meineke, had them touchup the weld at the H in the H-pipe (had 2 small leaks there), and they applied some more of their sealant to the joint that was leaking, then clamped it back down.
So far so good, I only got on it all little bit since then.
I'm having a hard time getting the car to be OBD-ready for the state inspection, it doesn't wanna set, even after I drove it a couple hundred miles.
And I have a nagging tinny rattle from the middle/rear-half of the car, floor board area, when I hit sharp impacts with either one of the rear tires. I've checked the shock upper nuts, Watts Link clamp bolts, Watts Link bolts to the body and the propeller, LCA bolts, UCA upper bolt.
Driving me crazy, can't figure out what's causing it.
^^That is an awesome photo and kick ass engine bay!
Permatex High Temp Red RTV is what I used. You just smear a little thin layer on and bolt back together.
I'd check inside the trunk in the fender wells and tail light area. Also check the mounting brackets for the suspensions as you do auto cross your cars.
Headers done. Front/side exit--nothing below the car which will make it easy to redo the belly pan and work on the car.

Agreed, do dump to the ground or out the front bumper area?
Thanks -- I am really getting impatient now, I want this thing out on the track.psf that is simply badass.
I really like my Bullitt Mustang a lot.
But .............
When I see pictures of your's it ALWAYS puts a Smile on my face.
It is definitely a Wild-Machine !!!
Love this shot! Such a badass car.
You should be drug out into the street and shot. All kidding aside, that is a pristine engine bay. What's your method for cleaning it?
...and instagram filters that blow out the highs and lows and help hide the dust. LOL
