    Check out this 14 year old's driving prowess....

    " Don't worry, we'll get you a new bike." WTF!!! Yeah, saw it before, some people don't have common sense. Not too long ago someone in Fres-burg did the same thing with a Viper and a 9-year old, plowed into two other cars on the street and all the guy could say was "didn't see that coming"

    Am I the only one who?

    Am I the only one who would rather have the painted black, $30 a piece D-hole rims and spend the money saved on a killer set of tires? I guess I just like the no-show all-go look too much :shrug:

    Remote mounted twin turbo

    It's always been my understanding that maintaining heat prior to entering the turbine housing is a good thing. There's some BS associated with hot gasses taking up a greater volume then equal amounts of cold gas, thus creating a higher pressure differential between the inlet and outlet's of the...

    Remote mounted twin turbo

    I'm sure they 'work', anytime you pressurize the intake tract (and add fuel too!) you're going to get more power, I just don't like it. Call me old fashioned, but I think a turbo's home is under the hood. There's another member here working on a single turbo setup for early Mustangs, he's...

    Remote mounted twin turbo

    I remember when these guys first started selling these kits. I didn't like them then and I still don't like them now. My first problem is that you are losing an immense amount of heat between the head and the turbine, and heat is energy that could otherwise be spinning that turbine wheel. My...

    Are you strictly a Ford person?

    I'll work on anything that presents a challenge, it's more fun that way. I think a better way to phrase this question would be, if someone dropped $40k on you, what CAR would you buy first?

    That's a nice looking coupe oboebrian. As promised, I have pics! But she's been living in the backyard for a few years, so she's a little weathered right now.

    finally completed the turbo kit

    Im surprised I didn't see this question earlier, maybe I missed it, what's up with the crank pulley? How do you run the Alt and water pump? Will the instructions come with recommendations as far as timing adjustments? Will it come with new "anti-crush" floats? IMO, clock that SOB and run a...

Pics should be coming tomorrow as promised, haven't had a chance to get to my parents house as that's where she lives right now. I'm pretty sure...

    If your gonna buy a welder buy this one (pic)

    IMO, and after talking at lenghth with the local Praxair guy IHO too, the Miller DVI is the best hobbiest welder on the market today. I have one and have to say it stands out against all others i have used. And the best part, it will work with 110V or 220V by simply switching the plug adapter...

    Paint On The Stang!!

    Congrats, it's always fun to paint your car yourself isn't it. Don't sweat about the little nick, just sand it down and repaint it, you've waited how long anyways, whats another day? Like someone before me said, you'll be so much happier 6 months from now if you just break down and fix it now.

    Alright, alright, I'll get some pics of the old girl, but it's not too pretty yet, been sitting in the RV port for about 4 years and she's still missing a fender but... I've gotten pretty interested in Road Racing, and there's some damn decent undiscovered mountain roads out here (a person...

    71-73 Mustang Hood for sale

    You wouldn't by chance have a good passenger fender to go along with that hood would you? Are you in Orange County, CA or the other one where those Tuetle boys live?
