Thats right go check it out its in the new June issue of 5.0 Mustang Magazine on pages 114-121 I believe. It is the tech article on the Steeda Triax Shifter title Who said Hot Rodding is Dead? or something like that. You can only see the under side of my car but it is my car, the mention my name a couple of times (Rich Robello). I dont know why they called me Rich and not Richard but oh well, that and I didnt say anything about going easy on my car during the test drive, in fact we got on her pretty hard to test the new shifter. Anyway I think its cool.

Nice! I'll look for the write up. Looks like it's time to give Richard's thread another bump.

unfortunately there are only pics of the underside of my car, but stay tuned there will be another magazine shoot whenever JBA finishes the headers theyve been working on.

Got it! Very cool! I like how they mentioned that you didn't want them to beat on the tranny.

Yeah I dont know why they said that part about taking it easy in the car, I didnt and we didnt. Now we didnt go racing around like a bat out of heck in it but I wanted to see the difference in the shifting so both myself and the writer drove it in different manners both slow and steady and racing through the gears down the 52, oh well it was fun and cool

I was reading that last night. I had forgotten you had said they were doing a writeup on that. Looks a little tougher than the last shifter upgrade I did, but I still think I can handle it. It's nice that the drive shaft bolts to a flange, instead of having to worry about tranny fluid leaking all over when you pull it out.
