Build Thread Want To Blow 5 Years And $50k On A Foxbody? Step By Step Instructions Inside!

lrs, me too, hmm.. we then threw a shop one on but it was worse. ordered a nos and leak was gone. but dang I love that shift feel of this trans!! no question whats going on! by 3rd youre way over the speed limit, lol....
That's the truth. Especially with the wide ratio trans and my 3.27 rear gears. The car is such a blast to drive.
 
Here's a little underside video I shot today.

Jeez, after watching that I'm all sweaty and feel like I should give you a fifty.....

Your really going to make me bring my buffer home and buff my entire exhaust, aren't you.

Damn, that is sweet. Thanks for doing what you did man, it really makes me push harder on mine.
 
Might I suggest the musical score for said video?

That would be so perfect. I went back into the video and tried to find the orchestra song from YouTube's list of licensed songs, but no dice.

Better break out the sandpaper too! The buffing was a the easy part on the exhaust. The sanding suuuuuucked.

Glad I can be of some inspiration!

Looks Great brother....
Be honest though-you shot that video laying on a creeper right? Lol

My camera was laying on the creeper. I was behind it just shuffling back and forth. That's why there's no sound in the video. All you can hear is my sneakers on the garage floor. It sounds like a basketball game.

Attach your GoPro under your car and go for a drive....

I have considered this, and there is enough tubular stuff underneath that it would be possible. Once I get the trans broken and and the fluid flushed, you may see a video. Would be cool to see the IRS in action under load.

Suck or not, I can't unsee what you have done!

I'll be sanding and buffing, smh. Oh well, it won't take for ever and it looks so nice.

What grit did you start with?

The bends of the bassani pipes were rough, so I hit them with 100 to start. Everything else started at 180 and then went up to 1000.

I think this is the first time I've used the cover since buying it two years ago.

Anyone actually know how to remove the thing without introducing dirt to the underside of the cover?
