I need a cheaper hobby. Everytime I see a car like this or hear about a motor build like this I begin looking for a second job.... God damnit

Half of the cars I work on I can't afford for myself (unless I want my kids to starve) Hobbies like this you either do before kids, after they leave the nest, or you do the Grassroots po boy specials and build a cheaper car from used go fast parts. I am on the 3rd option myself for a few more years I reckon.

Well another option is to just be independently wealthy I guess

Does that plate stand for Quarter Horse or Cuter Horse? And that Stang is exactly how Mustangs should look. It looks perfect.

You got some splainin' to do! lol I have no idea what this talk about load is. I thought cars were under 100% load whenever you go WOT? could you explain this a little bit to me Nick?

BTW, do you have an ETA for the TFS Type R heads at all? Or any hearsay on them?

If i recall, I think it's a measure of possible air that could possibly be pushed through the engine in a given time period vs what's actually going through it.
a fraction of Actual/Possible basically.

So its moving more air through the motor than it actually should be able to? lol and Nick, did you do the work to this car? What parts were used? Your heads and cams and I see its got the Eddie intake with 6061 plenum and probably a 75mm tb.

wait wait wait....TFS type R heads are coming out? Nice to know, if I pony'd up the dough for TFS heads this winter and a newer/better version came out right after I'd be flaming pissed.
