    "he was constantly getting stuck in my sump pump in the basement. Sure, I may have told him it was a water fountain, but he could have waited until the next rain to drink out of it instead of trying to sip water from the very bottom. I also caught him eating my dog's food numerous times"...

    Do I need a tune with my mods?

    What I did was the exhaust 1st (no tune needed) - then buy the CAI and the tuner together as a package - you'll save $$ -

    Is this worth it?

    I say no - unless this is some 'show' car you don't plan to drive or rarely drive -although it's your money - I paid around $350 for my exhaust system - shorties + off road H + welded in cherry bombers - it sounds bad as heck for me - I bought my 07 Gt new and never plan to sell it - but I'm not...

    Considering buying a super clean low mileage 05 GT, Carfax please!

    No major issues (some guys get picky about the hard to change spark plugs (should be done around 25k - they crack in 1/2)) - an 05 GT w/45k - I would be sure to check the usual things w/any used car - is it a (1) one owner? / any pictures? - plus wouldn't the guy selling it have kept the ford...

    My (2) two car garage w/the 93 project coupe out (not too long or the HOA nazi's who love to ticket me for it - will call me in) - of course something always ends up getting put back in on jack stands - it's like a 'chinese' fire drill for me moving all (4) four cars around to get something in...

    5.0 emblem placement

    I've not seen the blk one's on a fox - but there was a car in 5.0 magazine that had them stock silver - looked a little over sized for me - but pretty neat - I think w/your car and the dark colors it should pop.

    5.0 emblem placement

    Thanks tca and ERM636 - I was hoping someone had a low mileaged / know no wrecks car to measure. I'm repainting my project - still going back and forth on 5.0 emblems / no emblems / could go 5.8 (installing a 351w) but those are - I don't know - odd to me - or small pony emblems (from 03/04 V-6)...

    short block rec

    Question - I know you don't know if you have terminal damage to the block you have now - but if it's salvagable and you're on a budget - why not just rebuild the original block? you could have it machined and fix the damage.

    Dupont Vari-prime vs. epoxy primer - w some progress pics

    Yeah - I'll have to talk to my old boss - I have a ways to go - b/c I plan to just 3M red scuff the firewall (no filler or metal in-fills there ) plus the underside and topside of the K member - but the rest ....see I thought I could just sand it all down to bare metal - weld the metal in fills...

    Dupont Vari-prime vs. epoxy primer - w some progress pics

    Hey Scott - not sure - my old boss at the bodyshop swears by it - that doesn't make it a complete truth - he said to lay this down before any other primers or sealers / light coat of Vari-prime on all 'bare metal' - standard procedure at his shop - and his shop is one of the best - I'm asking...

    Dupont Vari-prime vs. epoxy primer - w some progress pics

    Anyone have an opinion on either using Dupont Vari-primer or Epoxy primer on bare metal? - I hear Vari is an excellent corrossion inhibitor - but can be a little more costly - I'm at the point in my project where I'll be spraying it soon - I have a steel contractor who is going to CNC all of the...
