Modding the MACH 1 this weekend!!!

Well, I said I wasn't gonna do it. I initially planned on leaving it stock . Then came the K&N filter and short throw shifter to start the madness . 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 .....he's a Ford tech and is gonna do all the work

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

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.
