yeah iam hoping to have the motor out this week and then i gotta take the nose off so i can sand blast the engine bay and the floor than take of taillights and mouldings and badges and start the body work the night mare has only just begun
 
Hopefully get a tranny solution that stands up to the motor I have and get the car consistently in the 9's. Been through quite a few trannies this season, thus keeping the car on the sidelines for far more time than it was on the road. Kills me to put it away with a 10.01 for the winter.....................maybe a trip to NJ is in order!
 
Just a few minor cosmetic things + a tune for the new injectors/MAF setup. The engine is done for what I want it to be, and almost everything else is as well. Finally, an 'easy' winter.
 
The Winter List:

Raptor shift light
SOS guage pod
SLP line-Lock
MM full length subs
MM IRS subframe bushings
FRPP 3.73
Chrome FR500s 17x9s
Billet-flow IRS braces and IRS Girdle
HANS shock tower brace
03/04 half shafts – still looking
Kenny Brown Diff/IRS brace
Kenny Brown ALUM diff bushings
SPEC stage II Clutch

It should feel like a different car in the spring
 
well....

Saleen rear seat delete kit (the one from dugan racing)
Install my lower control arms
Install my tach, water temp, and oil press. gauges
White Speedo gauges
weld in my subframes
lowering springs/ caster camber plates

and hopefully an explorer engine, i just need to find a junk yard quick so i can go pull one, and then swapping my e-cam, intake, and front accessories onto it along with an electric fan, new rockers, and maybe a better intake than my cobra

anyone no any good junkyards in the boston area that might have the 5.0 Gt-40 explorer engine??
 
painting/ installing cobra R hood, repainting front and rear bumper covers from A**hole drunk kids on campus, weld in full length subframe connectors, legal tint, machine-finish 03 cobra wheels, eiback pro-kit, rip out the junk aod-e, and swap in a T-5, w/ pro 5.0 shifter, adj cable and quadrant, maybe rear seat delete(undecided) and maybe 3.73 gears (if not the winter than the spring when i buy gt-40 intake.) hmm, whatelse, oh ya, another job or a winning lottery ticket for us college guys
 
any one know of a place with a lift from the wheels, or a pit where i can get full length subframes welded in?... no one here is willing to do it or just doesnt have the lift capabilities.
