Default Oooo..

I got behind some old guy today going 35 in a 50 and I'm like "Com`OOOOONNNN!!! Let's go!" He pulled off in the median and I hit the gas, not WOT but probably like 70%, and my car pulled really well. I felt it lightly push me in my seat and it just pulled and pulled, that gear lasted forever for some reason.

Made me alittle happy

Was this in the '67?

I had someone doin' 20mph before in a 55, when I passed him, I was going sideways.

No, the 67 is a full blown project from the floor up. It makes me sad though because it needs soo much work still and soo much money and I don't have the time/money to invest in it right now. Maybe in 3 years when I'm finally finished my career and pooling some money..

It was the 98, very lightly modded. Little things just make me happy when everything seems to go wrong...

Just wait until you get that '67 ready.


Or, you could put an m90 on your '98, I loved my supercoupe swap mustang, crazy torque!

They are very hard to find...I pulled the entire setup for mine off a supercoupe engine with a rod knockin'. If I still had it, I would sell it to you...you could try getting on v6power and contacting Jamie (v6sprout). Last I remember, he was building complete setups for people upon request; it worth a shot.

Give me 20k and the 67 MIGHT be running...

I don't have the time or money, so I dont care what happends to it. All Ive done was dump money and time into it for 6 years and havent accomplished anything.

Just like my good ol' vette. I've spend 4K on it since I got it! everything was perfect for the first two weeks, now it won't idle cold, runs super rich, and can't even move (busted rear end). LOL.

Last time I had an encounter with an old dude I went out by the lake (really kickass windy roads with some good straightaways, best place to drive around here) Some old *** guy in a brand new Z4 went 20 miles an hour the whole way. I was stopping on the side of the roads for a few minutes at a time but i'd catch right back up with him. God that sucked.
