Well, I said I wasn't gonna do it. I initially planned on leaving it stock :rolleyes: . Then came the K&N filter and short throw shifter to start the madness :think:. Then came the cold air induction system a couple of weeks ago. But now I've really gone and done it....On Saturday I'm installing Moser 31 spline axles and Ford Racing Traction lock diff, 4.10 gears, Magnaflow cat back and catted X-pipe, Mega Bite jr. rear control arms, and a Ford Racing aluminum driveshaft.

My friend thinks I need professional help and he decided to stage an intervention :o .....he's a Ford tech and is gonna do all the work :D

Sweet. It's when you start touching the engine that problems happen.

Yeah, I don't plan on going internal. But then again, swapping the cams is always a consideration :cool:

Yeah, I'll definitely be making a Reilly's run or two this year. I haven't gone in the past couple of years though. That's why I never emailed you to meet up. I'll keep ya posted.

Very nice should have went w/ the 430's though :D Funny you should say that. I initially had ordered the 4.30's but reconsidered and returned them for the 4.10's. I plan on running street tires and I didn't want to render 1st gear totally useless. The Mega Bite Jr control arms help to a point but the taller gear would have made things ridiculous. Heck, 1st is quite short as it is.

Joe when you get those mods in are you going to take it to the track? I saw a Mach1 running pretty good last night @ the track. My friend with a 2001 GT ran 13.9@99mph not bad for a basically stock car. It has flowmaster mufflers and K&N filter. I ran 13.7@102mph with the mods in sig.
