I'm not buying THAT for a second.

(I sold mine. But I sure didn't trade it for a Chebby!)

I am not going anywhere, I looked on LS1 tech for five minutes to see the comparison of the LT1 and LS1.....didn't sign up.....not going to mod this car.....save for the SLP Lid......maybe some deeper more agressive mufflers....but that's it......



and by the way Jimmy,,,,,,,tellin' you a fib.....didn't trade the Stang...would take more than this to get me to get rid of old Opal.........I love my Stang's....never had anything against GM , build some good running rides...not the best getting in and out of...BUT I will hand the keys to the wife and I will stay nice and comfy in my Stang........

Good call Rob...you know I saw your car on CL awhile back when it was for sale.....I got to work early but I have a great story of Tristan and the Camaro....let's just say he is a die hard Stang lover at 3 years........he cried when I had go to the carwash and vacuum it out, he wanted to ride in "the fast car, the "nustang" as he says..." god love the little guy.....

Good to see you're still kicking around, and better to see you kept the stang around!

Finally, congrats on joining the 1000 post club!

Yea, I was lurking once in awhile for the last few months, was coaching Drake's baseball team, took a lot out of me and lots of time with practice and games, I don't think I have put 200 miles on the 95 this summer...BUT you know the Mustang is in the garage.
As far as the post count 99% of that was from when talk counted as posts.....and remember all the pic threads I did .....that was 2005.

My extent of tech knowledge is push the go fast pedal, break it, cuss, fix it!

NICE! I'm currently torn over selling mine and stepping up to a C5 vette.

I'll loose my ass, be slower, but in the end I think it might be worth it.

The 98' LS1s actually have the most aggressive camshaft. Chevy put a smaller camshaft in the car in 99', and an even smaller camshaft again in late 01', which they compensated for with an LS6 intake. So you are actually best off with the 98' and putting an LS6 intake on it.

Yaaaa! Me too! I saw a sweetheart red 94 Corvette the other day. Damn, that's a good looking car. I can't see anywhere that I'd need to hot rod it. Wheels and tires are good. Stance is good. Power is good. Damn! Bowtie on the hood. I might try one, just for the fun of it. Got kids to get out of school first, though.

I did sell the Stang in hopes that I would eventually be able to grab up a 94-98 Cobra. I'd love a 4 cam, ya know.
