ok..first of all, after installing my crate motor i ran into all kinds of probs...too many 2 talk about. So after a few weeks and getting it up and running for a few minutes, i decided to drive it home from the yard. So about 3 blocks down it dies, then restarts, then dies again at the next stop sign. Then the throttle springs stuck on my tall valve covers so the rpms were stuck @ 2500, and i had almost NO vaccum. So my braked were not working. So i had it towed to a specialty shop. They looked it over and fixed it up alittle. So 3 days later the guy calls me and tells me that the shop's computer is giving codes saying that the MAF is jacked up. So i removed the MAF, which was a granatelli 75mm cold-air tuned, and sent it back to summitracing.com. Then after a week i call summit and they said that ALL granatelli products are on BACK-ORDER!!!...till next week. Now its been about a month since ive been in my car and its killing me!. SO i decided to tow the car out of the shop so i dont get charged anymore holding fees. Then as i was loading it on the tow i noticed this HUGE SCRAPE on my left rear fender!!. I couldnt believe this crap!. I dont know what i did do deserve all this crap but its driving INSANE!!....i just felt like venting. Im sooo depressed. [sm=sigh.gif]

Damn man sorry for the bad luck. Sit back have a drink or smoke or find a lady to help you relax. Life is too short for worry about things you cant change.

sorry dude, mustangs can be a real pain in the ***. I have about gave up on them myself. Mines for sale. Its so hard to get a fuel injected stang to act right for some reason. i may end up keeping mine and if i do its getting a carb. With the fuel injection- its one problem after another it seems. My buddy has a built IROC Z28 and went through so much crap because the fuel injection wouldnt act right- he slapped a holley carb. on it and it runs better than ever. Good Luck dude.

hope you come out fine . maybe it will run good & last a long time . good luck.

sry about all the bad luck just keep at it and you will be fine. Im having bad luck right now too so i know how you feel. I just got everything fixed on my car and then the tranny goes out. First i couldnt get the driveshaft out, but i got it out now. Now i cant get the tranny bolts out so i can get the tranny fixed. So i know how you feel
