2. Oil change
3. Differential fluid change
4. Emissions equipment re-attached:
---a. New midpipe with cars installed
---b. EGR re-attached
------1. 1.7s taken off so old valve covers can
--------be installed and spacer can be taken off
5. New front brake lines
6. New front brake pads
7. New front A-arms

It will also get:
1. BBK shorty headers
2. March underdrive pulleys
3. Short belt for after inspection

I am still needing to get started on my "winter" project.
-New GT-40x heads
-'94 Cobra intake; lower ported by Tmoss; upper polished (I hope) by me
-24 lb injectors
-76mm C&L Maf with Pipe
-New HB
-255 lph pump
I think that's it. It's actually a good thing that I haven't started this yet. We found out on Saturday that someone bought the building that we are leasing for our company. They need us out by Feb 28th. This is the shop where I do all of my work. So, now we will be moving the entire company to a different location in less than a month. I don't know how we're going to get all of this done and still run the business. I'm just glad that the Mustang isn't in pieces in this shop; that's the kind of pressure that I avoid at all costs. When I get in a hurry to do things, they end up getting done WRONG!
Good luck to all with their endeavors!!
Phil

I havn't even started my winter project yet, but I hope to start ordering parts in a couple weeks. Here's what I will definitely be doing:
TKO 600
Bellhousing, clutch, and any other parts needed to install the TKO
replace leaking oil pan gasket
QA1 tubular k-member
Ignition box
Dyno tune

These parts have a strong possibility of getting installed at the same time, depending on how much I spend on the TKO swap:
Tubular control arms
MM coil overs
New struts
MM c/c plates
Steeda bumpsteer kit
