Default Bring on May 10th

just found out today that my last final is on next wednesday!

so that means I can get home, change my oil and have my mechanic check over my car before I roll out to beaver springs. Ive been having idle issues lately, and am sick of looking for the cause, so I'll let the mechanic handle it.... etc etc....

what kind of oil would be good this time around? quaker state high mileage is what I was thinking and either a Motorcraft or K&N Oil filter.... Ive got 127K on her....


where is that link that guesses E/T again? I am running stock gears, tires, numerous bolt ons including clutch and short throw...

stock intake, heads bottome end....

91's were rated at 225, so I would figure with my exhaust, ram air and UDPs, I my be somewhere around 240ish?

A stock 5.0 is less than 225 HP even if Ford said it, I'm not sure how much less can be 5HP it might be20HP, I don't know.
