Kool - Me Too@!
 
BIGDADDY!!!!! SWEET!!!! I can't wait to feel them in Carlisle!!!!

Curious, how much do those babies weigh? and the damping (which ever you chose) how much does that weigh? I've neer seen it, but it would have to be some pretty THICK stuff to keep that lovely growl outside and not in....hey, wait a minute....will the damping also take out the vibration....may want to re-think that idea BIGDADDY!!!! heheh

Moes, MM is leaning on the hood, looking hot as ever - HI HOTTIE, SMOOCH! Nice pic too HOTTIES. Why don't you take another pic when you got your Mark up again of your lovely pipes and you under there with them and post in the Guys Guys Guys thread for me...making me drewl thinkin about it!!!!

When do you get your gears?

Ok....as hard as it is...Im leaving the thicker comment alone....it's killin me...but can't leave this one alone...what happened at the track?

The only thing I didn't like about running mine is it took 2-3 hours to clean him back up again...dust all under the hood, some rubber up on the rear..dang it!

SMOOCHES !!!!

I got somewhat lucky today as my friend who is a mechanic at a garage had a 93" Mark in for some problems. It would fall on it's face when you floored in neutral and my friend had just put on the pass side cat because it had failed. Now I know you should replace the entire pipe assembly but they were going the cheap route and had him cut out the one car and weld in another.

Well the car still had problems and it wound up being the center cat was now clogged up with the pass side cat. So he cut out the center cat and of course had to lower the car so we could hear it open exhaust.

Even tho it was through manifolds it sounded great! I am sponsored by QuickTime Performance with my WRX and I have one of his Electric cutouts on my car. I love the thing cause I can really screw with people with it and then go back to muffled at the flick of a switch :D

I did'nt PAINT mine. Thats the only thing I don't trust myself enough to do. I have 1800 invested in paint alone, and did'nt feel like sanding it off to get the runs out of it.


BTW.... They are/did take the plate bracket off before they painted it, right?

Of course. I kinda added to the job halfway through - Thats why the ehadlights are still on in the first few pics, I was originally gonna just do the hood, BUT -- well, you know how it goes.
 
Well, got all the parts now.....
  • Torque Converter (3200 stall)
  • Denny's Driveshaft
  • 4.10 Gears (and rear rebuild kit with trac loc)
  • High Performance Polyurethane Rear Spindle Bushing Kit
SO, sometime next week I hope, Ill take it all in and have it installed.....
 
Tell me about it.


I've got 4X the ammount of money in the 95' that I originally planned on.


I can't wait to see your car with the new mods Joe. BTW.... Are you installing these to be able to keep up with me in the 95?

Holy christ! :eek: That's as much as my custom stainless steel 3" stuff cost. Ah well, I guess that's the price you pay to mod a Lincoln.
