Sorry bro, but you need to get rid of the ford. Once a chevy leaves you numb, you'll know. You can make 5.0s fast, but its cheaper to fix up a SS camaro.

It's not your cars fault that you:
#1. can't drive
#2. don't know how to fix cars
#3. are impatient

So by all means... Go buy a Camaro! That way I'll have one more bow-tie fanboi to insult, while im doing everything better and faster.

no, he's just upset that his car is a turd... He's expecting something with 180hp to break the sound barrier. Even though he's got absolutely ZERO go-fast mods

I had a tough time yesterday trying to remove a front strut. I am aware that these cars are not fast stock and that the bolts on I have do little.

I had to return rear shocks a couple months ago, then i finally got the tool that does the rears. So i bouthg shock AGAIN, but there was no way to get the front stut off w/o having an impact gun.

Sorry for talking shiat about ford. I would NEVER get a camaro, I'm just irritated that my alignment is killing my new tires and I can't do a job that should take 30 minutes.
