I had that happen to me before but with parts for my paintball gun. I ordered a new bolt and some small stuff and they sent me about $400 dollars worth of parts (bolt was only about $50 bucks). I kept them and they never said ANYTHING to me!

Yeah I know i paid a little too much on couple of things, but was willing to eat a little
for same day satisfaction. I HATE waiting for stuff to ship in.

See prices below
I didn't think their pricing was all that bad for being a Ford dealer

Yep was surprised myself

Full line of AFR, Ford Racing and Edlebrock heads and intakes in stock
plus all the other supporting parts, fuel, exhaust ...... everything.


They even had a brand new GT-500 and $200,000 GT-40 sitting on the show room
