I look forward to making some gatherings next year. I only got the Mustang out to one show this year, and that was when it was only a week old

You absolutely won't regret dropping the money on those S-Types. I love mine. I would recommend drilling the much-talked-about weep holes before installing if you're at all concerned about water collection in the muffler. There have been a couple times where I've parked on an incline and watched a decent amount of water spill out (enough to leave a little puddle).


And I'll be happy for the warm weather as well. I have that Stillen splitter to put on the front end!

Borlas are pretty awesome.

I had my set replaced by Borla, and when I took the old ones off after 3 years they looked brand new.

Speaking of borla s-types, these are by far the cheapest I've ever seen the mufflers sell for. If you have a 2011+ v6 and are in the market, I'd recommend taking advantage of this sale! http://www.allfordmustangs.com/forum...aust-sale.html

Well, got my motor mounts installed this afternoon.

I made up a customized set of Prothane bullets to pull the whole drivetrain forward a 1/2" to perfect the shift linkage position (the transmission adapter plate moved the trans back a 1/2" from the factory position, which the MGW shifter was occasionally unhappy with).

Here's a stock Prothane mount and one of my modded ones (with the black base):

A little more, yes. Like crazy, no.

Anyone still checking in here? The off season doldrums appear to have hit hard
