Forgive all the dust, I live across from a dirt field and its been windy as hell the past couple of days. Plus the crappy cell phone pic/bad lighting makes it look 1000x worse.


I also finally got around to installing a watertemp gauge.


I left space for 2 more gauges in the face I made.

I also pulled the chip for a retune for the 70mm frpp tb, 4.56 gears and bbk LTs. Big ups to Wes for that.

Looks good what all is done to the car? Why 4.56's?

Eighth miler? I am all for the gears but damn that is stiff. I'd also be interested in hearing more on the combo.

thanks,

This thread is not what I expected, with a title like that.

LOL @ the 4.56 gears with a long runner little intake. Car should fall on its face around 60mph.

I like those valve covers. I really want to get them for my Cobra. I'd like to find a good junkyard around here and see if I can find a set of the old "Power By Ford" valve covers that Ford used on V8s in the 70s.

I used a smaller Mr.Gasket one that cleared the bottom of the iac.


I got the gears for next to nothing and on recommendation from a couple of local guys. They're really not all that different from the couple of cars with 4.10s that I've driven.

You would probably be alot faster with 3.55 gears from what I can tell about your setup.

No offense but I wouldn't be too worried about covering up your vc's with an engine that dirty.

Rinsed off the dust that had settled and took a pic in the daylight with a better camera.

Only thing that sticks out is the alternator, polish it up or paint it black!


And any more pictures of your car? I'd nominate it for stang of the month!
