The actual fact is people are thinking In 2006 dollars. 5k for stripes would have been expensive but would have gotten a pass. Dollars are extremely small now, but people still think a 6 figure income means you've made it. Not even close!
I'm looking at challenger t/a 6 speed cars now. Cloth seats, lighter than the mustang, more comfortable, 392 cubic inches, 500/500 at the tires with a cam and headers......

Don't think you can damage an engine that way, but someone has been driving it hard.
I'm 100% confident, I mean, look at the Mustang GT's and the getrag transmissions they've been honing for almost 10 years.... sure the odd bbq tick, lost engine, grinding synchros but you hardly ever hear about it! Ecoboosts, what's the big deal with an engine steaming and heating up like a pot...
I know! I figured you had the other seats - I am only ~200 at 6'2" and my love handles rub. No problem to cut down to suit, but they are such skinny person chairs. I guess Ford figured the high functioning folks and porsche conquests who were into such a $$$$ Mustang would have mainly...
I have a 600 hp old junk 3v, and it's batshit and difficult to control on regular 295's, but does not spin at all in 3rd, which feels boring until you realize it's irresponsible trying to reel in 100 mph rolling burnouts on public roads.. This new GT500 will be nice and whelming with a...
Sales guy moving a "used" 2017 with 40 miles sold as dead stock at auction. He was giving it the beans.
I take off hard whenever I can. Time and place. Not around humans.
you are putting words in my mouth, what exactly made you think I didn't like you saying "I don't know," twice in response to my question? This is just a conversation. I don't even know what I said, damn right I'm obtuse. I'm confused! Nothing in this world is black and white, I am a...

Are you a young person or something? How do you deal with real life?
Thanks
makes more sense to bin the 5.2 and just build up a 5.0 based engine, then. Could use the GT350 heads, I suppose, they are pretty nifty, but I haven't yet seen if the cams work with a cross plane firing order, or even if it differs.
years to sort this out.
