Very nice sound clip Scott! Your '70 sounds even better than the '05 with the cams in. You're right, there's no way we will make our newer cars sound like the old cars, it just isn't happening.

I had the 'stang running a bit on Wednesday morning, nothing like a v8 rumble at about 7:30am. (had to take the car out so the garage door could be replaced)

Tom, I like the Roush seat covers, the only issue I have is it looks like they have fit problems sometimes....

No I haven't. I would be curious as to what kind of numbers she would put down. I don't really think it would put down any more HP than my 05 but I think the torque #'s would be higher. That coming straight from my butt dyno. I am not even sure what the HP rating on her was back in 70'. The #'s back then and now aren't the same anyway.

Looks like in stock form she was rated at 300 BHP / 380 lbs. torque.
