OT= off topic.

I like the 5.0 engine myself. Ive had good luck with them in cars and trucks.

The 4.6 liter is pretty quick in a stang too, they might actually surprise ya! I was against them at first, but after owning one, I can say they are really good little engines.

I have it in my head I would like my next stang to have a twin turbo charged 5.0 engine in it. Not sure if I can make it happen, but ive heard they fly once ya stick a couple of turbos on em!

The closest we ever came to a 5.0 racing was a GT350 engine (289cuin).We took it out of a '66 mustang and put it in a '62 falcon
body

We had the 428 in several bodies but work best in a '67 fairlane

Evening, all. It was a LONG day at work today. I knew it was going to be a busy day when I was coming up the hill to get to the orchard and I was following a customer. I knew it was one of our customers cause they were going like 10 miles an hour! It's a 30mph road, but I didn't want to soot a customer.

But on the way home as I was getting on the interstate there were 2 hond-tards with other tard friends in their cars. They were hanging out of the car as I was getting on and then decided to hang their feet out (including the driver of one) after that. Were I not getting off at the next exit I would've jumped over to the left lane, thrown it in 120, and let them know what I thought of their behavior.

Hey Tom, I was thinkin of you last night.

Killed one of the biggest wolf spiders I have seen to date. I was sittin here watchin a movie at about midnight last night, and something caught my peripheral. Thought it was a mouse, it was black. Nope...spider. It actually made a sound when I squished it.
