Cool. I'd love to see it and hear it. Let me know when you're coming and I'll try to be around. I really want to check out the clutch pedal effort and see how loud the car is. What exhaust/mufflers did you go with? I still need to get back to LA and pick up my front rims.

I am using flowtech ceramic coated long tubes, magna flow x-pipe and spintech mufflers... I started with flowmasters but I wanted a different "old" type sound....

I used the complete mustang steve setup for clutch and brake combo. The install was very straight forward. I have not changed out my steering which is manual at the time. I am watching and studying the market for the best steering upgrade. I did replace the whole front end suspension and did a shelby drop...

The cluster is something I picked up off of ebay and added my own autometers. I actually ended up with another setup that uses autometers and stock cluster. I will take some pictures and post in a minute....

Pictures of the cluster are enclosed in this link. I switched to get back closer to the stock look... The cluster and tach are for sale, tach is new autometer. make me a fair offer... Peace!!
