Re: Anyone have a yellow engine?

purple??????? :D

i did mine blue instead of orange like i probably should've...the blue still looks good, but it's duller than when first sprayed and i can never manage to keep the underhood area very clean, since the car rarely gets driven, it's mainly just dusty i think

Re: Yay for this forum!

it is very true...i learned my lesson on the mustang forums when i used to frequent there....didn't last long there. plus, i'd rather deal with mopars than anything else. forum has been a little dead lately - i'm attributing it to guys not having the funds to work on their cars. i know i'd really li...

Re: kids, don't let your parents drive your car...

they offered, but it wasn't what i was expecting...they wanted me to continue making my monthly payments PLUS pay $3K and they'd give me the 8K to get it fixed wherever i felt like...paying an additional 3 grand on an already 24K loan doesn't make any sense.

Re: kids, don't let your parents drive your car...

she was fine...airbags didn't deploy even. the worst part is all the money i had invested in the car which i now have nothing to show for. i just barely broke even on it all, so in the end it's probably better i don't have to keep making payments every month on it, but i would've gladly taken it bac...

Re: Elastomeric Bumpers

you can buy the reproduced rubber eyebrows, but they are expensive. or, you can paint your bumpers. that's what a lot of people do - most likely since re-chroming is so expensive.

Re: Anyone running these cams?

idk, i thought about a voodoo cam, but they recommend a higher stall converter, which was not on my agenda, so i went with the XE268. i like it - sounds like a quiet freight train rumblin along. mine's a 440 ~9:1, 69 HP intake, 650 DP, hedman headers, 2.5" summit exhaust not the best video, for soun...
