    New Tank ....

    Well I found a powder coater (Collins Powder Coating) in Allison Park who did a great job matching the winkled texture and color of my TVS. I like to keep things as stock looking as possible .... I know I'm boring!

    What do you guys think?

    This is the intercooler tank ..... I'm not sure If I want to do the engine coolant tank? The once I have found aren't any bigger than stock so it's purely a cosmetic mod. Plus I have to save up for a drive shaft. Man do they pull the KY out when you're buying GT500 parts!

    o damn, shelby tax sux :(

    And yeah, the rad is what I meant!! sorry! brain fart I guess!

    I like the red cap, but if you want low key, go with the black. Also, since the red is a different color, you won't have two different colors/textures to think about if the black cap doesn't match quite right.

    I was thinking you should paint the red cap black before I read this Would look good either way, but the black would blend in better and look more stock.

    I was also going to suggest a black cap before you posted that.
    Collins PC is on the Contour SVT board and he is going to do some work for me, glad to hear you liked him.

    Yeah he did a nice job and EXTREMELY fast. he turned this tank around in a day!

    He was telling me about his 24 valve 3.0 swap he was doing on his Contour, that little bugger is going to fly when it's done!

    Sorry I have three more mods that need installed and one to order and then I'm done!!

    1) JLT brake cooling kit (Hopefully install tomorrow)
    2) Line Lock
    3) Shelby Dash Plaque ... had to get this before the unthinkable happens and you can't get Carrol's signature.

    and last but not least I still have to order my drive shaft and loop.

    With these mods it sounds like I'll be seeing you at PRP more this year.

    Tell Sean to bring that performance red car with him this time and put it in the staging lanes!

    Yes sir, that's the plan!

    Me being a beginner hopefully I don't do one of two things, embarrass myself and run in the 14's or get one run in, then immediately get thrown off the track ... I really don't want to put a cage in my car!

    Yes I conned Boomhower to come out of retirement .... I promised him a few runs with my car!
