What have you done to your mustang today?

[Doug M]

Congrats Ryan!

So after thinking about what Darren said about the 302 grill i went outside and took a closer look. In order for it to sit right the fog light holes need a trim to sit to where the fog light isn't pushing against the grill.

That's what I was told as well. Looks AWESOME!

Removed the stock tranny cooler host at the cooler and replaced with a section of rubber transmission rated hose. Double clamped to help make sure it doesn't pop off or leak. This was to help make room for the lower bracket on the TVS.

Was a pita especially in that small space there.

Took her out of a 6 month hibernation to finish the exhaust and blew the transmission.

That sucks!

Installed my new MGW shifter on my s197. Holy crap it is so much better than my old Hurst!

 

[302GT]

Drop it off at the dealer... for an oil leak... again...

Granted this was Sunday but started painting the rear axle aaaaand new wheels.

Finally got my BMR UCA Mount installed.

OEM mount juxtaposition to the BMR Mount.

Redfire, what paint are you using for the axle?

Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?!?!??!? You got to be kidding Kev!!!!

Just use Rustoleum self etching primer and solid black paint - works like a charm and holds up well.

You ever sit back and realize you haven't driven your car in 8 months and realize you are still 3 or 4 months away from getting it finished and ready to driveat the beginning of winter? That's when you lose motivation :/

It's pretty discouraging when projects lose steam. Just keep your head up bud and you'll have a pretty badass car to trade in on a GT350 soon enough!

Swapped out the heater coolant tubes and hopefully fixed my leak. It wasn't bad at all. Worst part was getting the stud out that holds the lines in place in the back of the engine. I had to remove the battery and tray and squeeze my hands back there to get to it.

Changed mufflers....again. After my LT headers and O/R H my FR500S mufflers were pretty obnoxious when the throttle opened, no drone, but really loud when the throttle opened. I figured if the headers and no cats made that big of a difference to those, maybe it would impact the stock mufflers, it didn't, way too quiet. So last night my MBRP axle backs showed up and went on. They look straight through, but really aren't very loud, just about right when the throttle is opened, but now I have a bit of drone. The jury is out as to whether I can live with that or not. Not sure I will ever be fully happy with the exhaust sound.

Have you considered credit card debt to finish it sooner? I'd be straight pissed.

I used some VHT rust converter and a little Rustoleum rusty-metal primer and then some semi-gloss black auto-spray.

Selling your FR500s?
