Default Feels good.

Been a while since I posted here. Had a lot of trouble with the stang. Everything from the accident, to problems with insurance, and then a massive engine failure when I finally got the car back. Well couple months ago bought a longblock and I'm gonna get it tuned soon.

Will have the vid from the dyno run up soon. For now the vid my mechanic made for me. Hope you guys enjoy.

Oh skip to 0:50 if you just wanna see the damage in the old motor.

Thanks for the welcome guys, appreciate it. And CT white stang I was running 8 pounds of boost when that rod went on me. I don't think it was the boost, I think it was the fact I was pushing 420 to the wheels last time I dynoed it. The engine only had about 60k on it and about 7 - 8k of that was with the supercharger on it. I really thought it would last longer, but oh well. I took her to the track a bunch of times, and had another load of races on the street.

Now that I won't be doing that crazy **** on the street anymore and taking her to the track a few times a year, should last me a lot longer. Plus I've heard good things about DSS Racing longblocks, should last me a while. Now all I have to worry about is destroying the rear or the tranny.
