    Thanks Kev! Can't wait to get her home.

    Some more good news - the Edelbrock AirGap intake I bought allows my hood to close over the Paxton carb enclosure. Woooooo Hoooooooo!!! I was a little worried about that as space was very tight under the hood, even with the Performer 289 intake I had on my old motor

    I can't wait to hear the new cam and the extra cubes!

    Looks good on the rollers... I'm sure some faggot will say "don't get caught up in the numbers" or "you can't race a dyno." Just to rain on your parade. Looks damn good Ron!

    Thanks guys - I don't get caught up in the numbers either. She is just on the dyno for tuning purposes - not just to make a big number. I just want it to run well and haul ass!...and that's just what I told Tim.

    Final numbers coming soon. Giggity giggity giggity!!!

    I want a front row look when you get her home. I love the old style stangs, and yours is my favorite coupe, love the stance and color!

    Thanks Randy - I really appreciate the compliment! Once she's home I have a bunch of little non-mechanical stuff to do on her, and then I hope to wear out the remaining tire tread before the cold weather gets here.

    I will post up the final numbers once I get a dyno graph. :D

    On the stance...I bought some 1" spacers for the front coils. The car is REALLY low in front. I absolutely LOVE the stance, but I might sacrifice a little of the wicked look for a smidge more ground clearance.
