    2003 Z06 Should I buy it?

    Looks like I have to come in a dispell a few myths. #1, the vette's insurance is more expensive than a modded Mustang. False. I know, I've done it. $10 less a month for the same coverage. #2, vette's mods are more expensive. Only with clutch's and headers. But when you add long tube...

    look what flew over my house just now

    I try to go the Houston air show every year. I love watching the older aircraft, but there's nothing like a P-51 doing a high speed flyby. Open headers on a Merlin V12 is incredible. But I would have to say my favorite military aircraft would be the A-10. Built like a tank, ugly as sin...

    installing springs.. what to look out for

    DO NOT use a spring compressor. And you won't have to remove the brake lines, just remove the clip that holds the ABS line to the frame. 10mm socket.

    I think i'm going to trade my car for something else...

    Have you called YOUR insurance and see what they can do? Seriously, if your car isn't right, they should do everything they can to make it right. If you love the car, fight for it. And FWIW....I AM old....so driving a C5 doesn't jive me. ;)

    MGW question

    The 130 is for the metal plate PLUS the boot. You can order a new boot by itself from 5.0resto or Randy Stinchcomb (member here). Actually, let me check at home, I may have a new one that was supposed to go on Sundance before I wrecked her. I'll check and post up tonight....if I have it, pay...

    MGW FTW!!!

    I had a Pro 5.0 on my 99's T45 and I missed 3rd repeatedly. Eventually broke the 3-4 shift fork. Put the MGW piece on and never looked back. It's the best shifter I've ever used. So good that I got one for my TKO600. Shame he doesn't make one for the Z06......yet. :D

    Got my wheels mounted today.

    If I ever do it again, I will go a totally different route. Make a lightweight street fighter. Strip all non-essential stuff....radio, ABS, back seat, etc....go with some lightweight wheels, and a monster powerplant.

    Got my wheels mounted today.

    Very happy. But keep in mind, my heart is still with Mustangs. Everytime I see a modified GT or Cobra drive by I ALWAYS look to see what they've done to it. And everytime I see a yellow GT with loud exhaust I get a little sad, I do miss her. :(

    It's like comparing apples to oranges. The Vette handles incredibly, has torque whenever you want it, and fit anf finish are top notch. That and I can go 100mph and get 19mpg. Or slow it down to 75mph and get 30mpg. It's incredible.
