Thanks man. I thought it was really cool when she still ran with her 4-banger. It made the intake sound a lot more audible form inside the car, and just gave it a mean, growly sound. Plus, as soon as I put it on, every guy with a sideways cap and a Honda tried to jump up on me. Back then I...

yah, I know. That's why I'm trying not to throw an absolute piss fit. And I think your primer stang looks bad ass btw. I just hadn't realized that the Stigma of the 5.0 mustang had changed so much since I started caring about them. I thought people would think this project was neat, and...

Well I do appreciate that. See, I kind of have two projects. The Mustang is for raw power, nothing else. The car to which the buckets have been promised can be found in my signature :) The Z is a V-6, N/A. It will never be fast, but it can get good gas mileage, and it is DROP DEAD SEXY in my...

He would have a DIS module. And usually when those go out the tach starts reading 50% less than actual engine RPM right? It's been awhile since I trouble shot a 2.3 but I believe that's what mine did. I have two DIS modules I need to find homes for if anyone needs one. PM anytime.

Well I was referring to when I am 45, being 22 now, I'm sure it will be a lot cheaper in 23 years to buy an electric car and swap everything over :)

Lol U and I are quite similar. I am 22, have owned 4 mustangs, and have owned one since I was 18!

No I am not going to use a f**king dryer vent as a hood scoop. This thing is a freaking lx hatch that came originally with a 4-cylinder and has 300k plus miles on it. You are all acting like I started out with a 93 Cobra R or something. This car is what it is, if all you can do is make fun of...

I have made two orders so far from http://www.rockauto.com and everything arrived in good condition, and a timely fashion. All parts worked and where of standard o.e.m quality. I consider them a good source for factory replacement parts.

The stuff I am using is made by duplicolor. So far it has dried well and doesn't rubb off. I'm planning on using a high gloss enamel paint to seal everything up. That should keep it from rubbing off. I will be the final owner of this car, no matter the outcome. Cars do not escape my grip...

Christ I bet that sounds mean as hell! I've never heard a 5.0 rev past 5.5k that I can remember. In fact I doubt the one I'm working on now has been past 5k in it's life.

That picture makes me sad that my mustang will never have an interior again. It's a good thing I plan to get another one day. :) The other two pictures posted look very out of place to me amidst stock interior pieces. I personally have to question the visibility of gauges in the radio area...

You sir are an inspiration. I could never be so patient as you've been with this. I've only got two weeks in my current project (2 years if you count the cars entire span in my ownership) and already I'm itchy for results. I think of how the 93 notch I owned for a while ran with the same...

I think Jay Leno deserves it...

I dunno, when I'm cursing I usually shift at a high RPM, as Cursing is a sign of my anger.

That sounds worthless. Especially in the engine compartment. I sincerely hope that doesn't start happening.

Its not just paint, it's rubberized undercoating. The color is black, and will be a bit flatter than it appears in the pic, as it is still wet there. I chose to do this because it will resist rust for the life of the car, and should oil start to leak anywhere, it will match :)

s**t edit error.

Well I do appreciate your input. But like I say, this car is Function over form. This scoop works as well as any I could purchase. Remember that this cars interior is FINISHED in that pic down there. Only think lacking is a flat panel for gauges, a steering wheel, and a seat or two.

It could very well end up that way. I haven't decided on a top color yet, but I am surely leaving the bottom with the rubber undercoat. It will most likely end up being two toned white black because I am already almost in love with the look. It will be either that or all black with red trim...

I made the scoop from a sheet of aluminum. I have another hood if I decide not to use it. It is getting the 5.0 HO out of my 91 thunderbird. Suspension upgrades will be light at first. Later on I will stiffin the suspension and add structural improvements to the body. The scoop *is from...
