The car hadn't been out in several weeks and I needed to dry it off after the car wash. Too bad this is the result of a bad stepper motor. I'm actually sitting still, but I just couldn't pass up the photo op.

I posted a teaser photo of this about a year ago, and now I've had a few minutes (in between remodeling the house) to get a bit more work done. It's still a long way from finished, but it should give you an idea of what I'm trying to do. First shot, taken last year. With a little bit of...

A long time ago I replaced my 500 head unit with an AVIC D3. I sorta remember the wiring required to supply 5 volts to the amps, but it's all pretty much a blur. Fast forward to a month ago and I upgraded to a Kenwood DNX7190 (MUCH prefer the Garmin Nav to Pioneers) and I now get the pop every...

I was at the Amazon dyno day in SC and hit their Mustang dyno with 489 HP / 454 TQ, so that's 552 HP / 513 TQ in DynoJet numbers. JDM emailed me this tune 2 years ago and expected 550. Not bad Mr. Jim!

My new company truck arrived a few months ago and it was decided it should have Texas plates, since I'm officed out of Houston. Having spent 4 1/2 years there, that's all the association I want to have with Texas, so I got this: For those of you that actually like being in Texas, no...

It seems lots of the front spoilers / splitters are made of this, and they are the first thing to find those 'little' obstructions as we travel about. I purchased an aftermarket ABS splitter for the car some time ago and had the misfortune of removing a sizeable chunk. I was lucky in that it...

Are there any within a reasonable (around here, that's about 100 yards) distance from Somerset? You have to understand that I have anger management issues that make Steven King's horror stories seem like childrens books, and in the 4 weeks I've been here I would have already reduced the state...

My brother has been awaiting word on his Boss LS that he ordered through Planet Ford in Houston. They called him last night to say the car was in transit! Too bad the train it's on derailed, and the car his is on tipped over. There were 5 Boss and 3 LS cars on there and they're all totaled...

I finally got more than 2 nights in a row at home and made good use of it. Pulled the rear end out to weld up the LCA relocation brackets, install the 3.73's and build a custom breather, then set it back in to mount the watts link and adjustable rear sway bar. Moved on to the transmission to...

Some stuff from the garage and leftovers after the 6060 install. All prices plus shipping. If interested I need to know soon, as I'm out of town for several days at the end of the week, then gone for three weeks the following Wednesday. Exedy Mach 500 clutch. 9000 highway miles, hasn't even...

I'm doing my swap this week and thought I'd settle this question with a photo. The difference has been posted as anything from 1/4" to 1", so here's the real deal - just a shade under 7/8".

If anyone is interested in the CAI in this picture for $50 + shipping, it's yours. After I swapped hoods to the Saleen SC unit this was making contact, so it has a couple of rub marks. I will take some photos if you're interested. It includes the stock MAF sensor but not the MAFia.

BNIB, didn't want to mess with swapping the pickup tube. $250 + shipping.

We're not far from the Flaming Gorge Reservoir here in Utah / Wyoming, and I thought you guys might like some photos. This is 3.8 million acre feet of water, probably 60 miles long, and 400+ feet deep near the dam. It's kinda scenic, too. Right behind the dam. A bit further up the...

Fortune smiled upon me as I happened to be in the right place, at the right time, WITH my car to do 1 day of a two day event at Watkins Glen. My brother's best friend is an instructor and gave me the scoop on how to make it happen, and I did about 90 miles on the 3.4 mile long course. I wasn't...

I won a $100 cert from American Muscle at the Saleen Nationals for the long distance award (1900 miles!), but it is only valid on pre-painted parts for S197's. If anyone is considering parts I'll let this go for $75. Parts available are side scoops, factory style hood scoop, quarter window...

I'm just buttoning up the stroker install and some of the other new stuff I have laying around. First up, the Innovators West OD pulley, a set of Metco pullies and a ThumpRRR 'budget' tensioner. I had some 1/4" plate aluminum lying around and decided to do a little fabricating. I've...

I've got to start looking for one as I sent mine out for some work and can't get hold of the people. If I don't hear from them by tonight (14th) I'll need one pretty quick.

Next Saturday is a All Ford show at Gullo Ford in Conroe, and I'm going to be there (It's only 950 miles...). It would be nice to see some of the local crew showing, or at least drop by to say hey. Here is a link to the show thread sponsored by the Northside Mustang Car Club...

This was at Coffee and Cars in Denver on Saturday. A kid was driving it around the show area at nothing more than an idle. I was hoping he'd get out on the access road and hit it to see how long it would take him to get dead. I saw the lawnmower racing mentioned in another thread...

In my continuing quest to get a real heating system in the house (hot water radiant floor) I need to get everything in the house OUT of the house to put down the new floor. It’s going on a concrete slab, so the entire floor of the house will rise by 1 ½”. Since I have to live here during the...

I'm cleaning out the garage this weekend and came across my stock intake manifold with plates. Since I seem to have a bit of talent bending tubing I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in a completely stealth, under the manifold, individual runner nitrous / fuel setup. If you were...

I’ve been getting some requests for information regarding how I did my wiring and whether there was a thread about it. Well, here’s the thread. It’s a long one, so proceed at your own risk! First and foremost – Prepare! Second – take your time. If you’re in a hurry you will mess this up...

He should be posting up here in a bit, but he needs to change his username. I was unaware that his other car was stolen about a month ago, and I just saw his new ride about an hour ago. It's grabber blue, has some white stripes and these funny looking snake thingies all over it. I suggested...
