I imagine the thrust plate could wear a little or as we know things do go bad. Did Chris check the timing at various engine speeds?

I talked to a guy in OOB Friday night who has a procharged white early 90's GT. Car has blueish stripes on the sides of the cowl bulge on his hood. Sounds very healthy too.

Been awhile since I have seen you around. Have you made it down to Epping at all? Ive been chasing a problem w/ my car for about the past 6 wks but I think its finally figured out at least I hope. If the weather is good next saturday or sunday Im calling out from work and going to the track providing the car is running right by then (cross's fingers)

I've been lurking, just not posting much. I've read about your car, sorry it's still not right. I have been tempted to apply some baseball bat therapy to cars of mine in the past for much less than you are going through.

Haven't been to Epping yet. I can really only go on Wednesdays and it seems like it has been raining almost every one since May. The few it hasnt, I was working in Bow, NH and would have had to come all the way home and grab the Bullitt and then turn around to back to Epping.

Plus I had my appendix out on Friday before Memorial Day weekend, which seriously cut into my fun money budget. I planned on getting a set of M/T street radials to mount on spare wheels before going to Epping. I really didn't want to go on my street tires.

So we have been sneaking in short cruises between rainstorms, that's been about it.....

Yeah, the apendix out kind of sucked, especially on the Friday of a long weekend. On the plus side I had my first dose of morphine. All I can say is WOW.

My spare wheels are 18 X 9". One of the guys on BOR had a set earlier this spring that would have been perfect, I should have jumped on them then.

sucks about the appendix.

Still busy working on my house. Ripping off and replacing some siding on one side of the house. Plus mowing the lawn and the various day to day stuff. My wife has been busy painting inside so we haven't done much beyond that.
One more week and I'm on vacation. Hope to get down to Epping in that time provided the weather holds up.
Chris I'll have to bring the car over so you can replace the tint.

Mustang runs!

It was the DBX meter it went bad. Chris hooked up his C&L meter that he had on his fox and it runs mint and no hesitation at 4,000 RPMs anymore. I'm buying a PMAS meter and it should be here by Friday. Im calling DBX tomorrow to see if I can get any kind of refund.

Good news!!! What a relief it must be to find the cause. If all the planets line up right maybe we can get to NED next Wednesday. I almost went tonight but got tied up in traffic (Accident on I-95 sb) trying to get home from Auburn and was too ticked off by the time I got home....

Like I said over on Hollow point if I go next week it will prob be sat/sun if the weather looks good b/c all I have is my slicks now and I cant run them on a wednesday but I can on Friday/sat/sun. Only other tires I have are my Nittos for the street. I still have my MT DR's but I dont have another set of rims to put them on yet.

that sucks to hear the DBX crapped out on you. Good to hear that that cured the problem. Maybe they will just send you a new one.

I wonder if its a wide spread problem or just a isolated incident.
Got my MSD box the other day and will put it in this weekend. I'm going to mount it in the hatch area.
