    A new three-link by Lateral-Dynamics

    The EvM kit was supposed to be done for a while now... I was actually a little surprised by how fast they initially said it would be completed....especially as a bolt-in kit...while from reading about the lateral dynamics part, it sounds like they have been working on the basic design for a long...

    GT-500 = Boat

    The extra weight in the Shelby comes from the transmission, clutch, iron 5.4, supercharger/plumbing, brakes, seats... Ronale... Don't like it. The Shelby at MSRP is hard to beat for the money...but I wouldn't pay over MSRP for one, thats for sure.

    How do you figure out housing length?

    I have wheels in mind already and they only come one way - so I need to make the rear fit the wheels.

    How do you figure out housing length?

    I know the wheels dimensions that I want - how do I pick the correct housing and axles, so that when it is all together, the wheels tuck "just right"? I guess I could get the wheels and tires, sit them under the car, then measure between the mounting face of the wheel? figure in for rotor...

    A new three-link by Lateral-Dynamics

    Wow, I really like everything I see there...except.. $200 for custom length axle housings? I mean, don't they have to cut it anyways during fabrication - whats the issue making it a specified length? I could see $50 or so for special order paperwork, or something like that, but jeeez.

    big block 429 1968 on ebay

    ^^Yep, and I bet he is out of the country and will "fly in" to help get you the car. This could be the type of scam that they are just after a huge deposit, then they are gone.

    Another day, Another GREEDY dealership.

    Receipt AND in writing? You can get this car. An attorney will not charge all that much for just a "threat" letter - and usually that's all it takes to get things done. Your attorney should just write a letter stating their intentions and the charges that are to be filed. Also have him say...

    18x9?

    315s kinda fit, but from what I understand, they rub. Im planning on 315s on the rear of my fastback - but Im not going to have leaf-springs. I'm also researching if I can fit a 17x9 - 275/40 setup on the front using the griggs suspension and some masaging.

    If anyone actually sees Mr.Pratte...

    Lol, not my first choice either, but when I saw it on that car, it didn't look as bad as I had pictured it in my mind. Tungsten w/silver or black w/tungsten for me please :)

    If you have it in writing, and a receipt for your deposit, call an attorney.

    Well, it didn't sell

    It's still together, believe it or not - 16+lbs. However, he did eat a set of head gaskets, finally :) (they were original!). He doesn't drive it much though and it's a pretty safe tune as far as the fuel goes, but I too think it's a time bomb :) Here's a link to his car...

    Well, it didn't sell

    Crap! - and just like that, I found it again! :) http://www.cardomain.com/ride/838966 Doesn't look like it's had any updates since the last time I looked.

    Well, it didn't sell

    I guess I need to qualify myself here....I've owned an aftercooled t-trim setup and we installed an HP single kit on my friends 7k mile 93gt - other than the kit, 100% stock and over 600rwtq. I've spent years on turbomustangs.com, so I know about combos that dont require ICs. The fact is...

    Well, it didn't sell

    AHh, I remember seeing this now. The first thing I looked for was the IC - no IC? I know the project is probably difficult to begin with and routing an intercooler would only add to the task, but personally, I wouldn't run a turbo kit without one. I had some pictures of a killer turbo project...

    Almost done

    Yes, I sold my 93 coupe. I really regret selling it though - it was so damn nice :) I ended up buying a 67 fastback. I almost bought a coupe, but the seller backed out at the last minute :( I got a pretty good deal on the FB though. It came with an Eleanor kit, and a ton of new parts...

    Almost done

    Hey man - it's Jeff from Pro-touring. You know I love your car - looks better every day! I gotta ask though - is that a buffing wheel sitting on the GROUND next to your car? That should be illegal next to a car like that!

    I've been casually reading for a while too and also have no idea what you are talking about. Link?

    Venting good for the soul

    This is going to sound messed up, but I often tell my wife that if I was driving and could swerve left to avoid a human, or right to avoid a dog - I would have a hard time choosing. I'm guilting of picking up strays any time I see them. I found my dog, Cooper, at my work (busy intersection)...

    This just in.... Evan Smith runs a 12.25 @ 117.18

    Here's what I think we will see... The 03/04 cars were quick, but not many people could duplicate the 12.40ish benchmark that was set - I mean, It happened, but conditions had to be perfect and it just wasn't that typical. I'm hoping that the difference will be that, with the Shelby, most...
