shes gone two

must of you know i sold my 05 f250 4x4 v10 lariat sc, swb and got me a 07 mustang.

well she's now got a stage 3 super charger from procharger, a 8.8 inch rear in the place of the puckie 7.5. with a nice ls installed with 3:73 gears behind the 3636 5 speed manual. exhaust is from jba from the heads back with 50 state legal headers, high flow cats and dumping out into true duals. nose is a take off gt, tail end is gt. better tires replaced the the rotten perilis it had all from www.newtakeoff.com. my own custom tuning with a sct excal2, rwhp out of the little 4.0 liter v6 is now 419hp with a car that weighs in at 3347 pounds so it's some tight little rocket that still can pull a very nice 26.38 mpgs at 70 mph highway.

well she kept me busy, so have 4 magizine write ups for muscle mustangs and fast fords. trans build ups for mucle mustangs other new one which is a truck mag. and the companies sister mag. diesel power and 2 others.

i don't have any thing else to share in my head any more. and i need to take a lot of time and get my mind worked out from the other major and still rageing medical problems that mean more spine surgery work next month so i can keep on walking around and not running on a electric scooter. then getting both knees replaced so can lower the pain levels and be rid of the morphine patches i have to wear right now.

it's been a great 3 years guys stay in touch. if you want and know how to reach me.

Sounds like a fun car now...

Good luck with the medical stuff.

You can buy as many cars as you want but you only get one body, make it last.

Capt - sounds like an awesome 'stang! Take care of yourself and get back in the saddle of that bad boy! Chime in when things are less, um, painful. I appreciate all the advice you have contributed in my short time here and I am sure there are thousands more out there that are grateful for your influence.

May you feel God's healing hand in your life. In Christ name, Amen.

Capt. You are one hell of a great person to learn from. You will be in my prayers. (and I personally know prayers work). Your car sounds like one sweet ride and you will be driving it for a long time to come. Please keep us posted on how you are doing. Tim

You're just never satisfied cap'n. It was probably all those hotrod mods that threw your back/neck out of whack again.

Take care & keep in touch, we'll be thinking about you.
And no snow-blowing after this next round of surgery!!
