The Whipple has been on for about 35k miles. She is running fine. A new engine block and cylinder heads are in the garage waiting for forged internals. Hoping to see some time a either New Jersey Motorsports Park or Summit Raceway for a little fun. More interested in turns than the 1/4 mile. She proved herself well on the track last year during the Shelby American Auto Club 33.

I've used prestone gold in every vehicle I've owned with redline water wetter as well. I've had coolant go over 100K miles and still look like it was just put in. I think your prestone idea is a good one.

Have you guys heard anything about a new intake for whipples?
I noticed info on the 2010 GT500 says its supercharger has some kind of intake resonator to reduce whine. If I could get that in a whipple kit for our cars, that would interest the hell out of me. My decision on which SC to buy would be complete.

the Rock Steady Crew is an old school breakdancing group from New York, nothing to do w/ mustangs or cars. but since i used to breakdance back in the day, way way back in the day, i'm more of an honorary member. i think all that head spinning back then is why i have neck pain now. lol.
but back to mustang stuff. i will be in a car show this weekend. its an all ford show. i placed 1st last year in the DD class and got best modified DD. this year i'll be in the modified class. nothing to stress over, should be fun. a bunch of us from my mustang club will be there too. will have an exhaust competition for best sounding exhaust and thats the prize i want. i'll post up some video next week of how it went. so until then i'll be shining up the GT and representing the Whipple Crew!!!
