Default What did you do to your mustang today?

I woke up early and washed my Mustang then I decided to wake up my pain in the butt neighbor :-) He hates Mustangs. He actualy believes that a 4 cylinder Honda Prelude can beat any 5.0 Mustang. Apparently, in his world Honda always win on Pinks. It wasn't hard to wake him up. My mustang has straight pipes no mufflers. You should have seen the smile on my face when he screamed out the window at me. I am one bad boy!

:edit: I pulled the lower radiator hose and let all of the water that was in it drain out. Then i filled it back up with coolant/water and let the air bubbles work out.



After i get back from the gym, im probably gonna adjust the clutch.... since it seems to be coming out of adjustment. Ill probably pull the kick panel and look at the computer to see if i got a chip, too. I needz a tune man.

I'm in the middle of the charging system upgrade. Routed a braided ground strap from the stock battery ground on the block to one of the sway bar bushing bolts on the frame bracket. Put in a new starter solenoid and a 4 ga wire with 200 amp in line fuse that I routed around the rad support and under my air box. Mounted the fuse where the battery used to be. Today I'm putting the battery in its temporary home in the spare tire compartment and running the cables and more grounds and maybe even installing the 130 amp alternator.
