Hi Ben...Long time no posts! I just emailed Brenspeeds about quoting me a price to install these cams and do a customs dyno tune in late January or February. Maybe we can get a package deal. I am really serious about these puppies. You know we have some pull up there. We know the Brenspeed poster child!

Scott,
Read on your shaft install about the diff fluid. If you actually lost that much, I'd top it off.

Good idea about mating your Prochamber to the H pipe. If you need an extra to practice, you can have my straight-thru one. I'll not be needing it
I'll see how the setup sounds with the GTA's on mine before I look @ the Prochamber.

Larry,
I am going to check the differential fluid level while the car is up in the air. I have a need to know if it's low. Got a link to those headers bolts??

Thanks Larry. I will check them out. I went to Brenspeeds website looking for the O2 extenders like you bought but did not find them on the website. Did you have to call them?

I called them for the O2 extensions for my headers. Do you still have to trim an ear from them or are they making them with the correct plug now?

I was wondering if maybe Tom was Brent's long lost twin, seperated at birth.

I generally read the thread everyday, but have not been able to post. I have been having some problems with my hands and feet going numb for about 3 weeks now. It is getting better or I am dealing with it better now. Causes alot of cramping when I type or write alot. Hopefully the MRI, EMG and numerous blood tests will find something soon.

Double Dang Ben! For sure get to feeling better. I guess we are just getting old. I have been resisting for a couple of years but I finally let the Dr. put me on highblood pressure meds 2 weeks ago. I think it time for the bullet.
Scott

And yes when we did Larry's install he had to clip off the tabs to fit. Sounds like they are the same.

Well guys I just got off the phone with Brent @ Brenspeed. I just couldn't wait so I placed an order for a set of the Comp NSR Cams and O2 sensor extenders for the OBX longtubes I will order next week. The cams are in stock and I will get them tomorrow. He quoted a price of $280.00 labor for the cam install. No way I would risk doing the install for that little coin. So my plans for the next few weeks will be to get the OBX longtubes installed by say mid January (Hey Larry) and go up to Brenspeeds on a Friday in February to have them do the cam install, put her on the dyno and tweek the tune as required. This will conclude my performance mods on this car. Now I just need explain to my wife (Karen) that these cams really won't make the car go any faster. Since I promised her I would stop doing that kind of stuff. Also, I am wondering if I might get a Comp Cams banner while I am there? Maybe if I put a good word in with my buddy Tom he could get one for me.

Scott,
Here's the link for the extenders;
http://www.brenspeed.com/mustang_46/HXpipes.html

Those header bolts was just 1 place to look @, but the buy-it now is a little pricey. I'd shop around with a Google search. Brent may even sell them????
Mid-Jan will be fine for doing your headers.
Cams, eh?

Ben,
Hope you find out whats going on & get some relief soon.Sorry to hear whats happening.
You still have to trim the tangs off.But the little lock part still works, so I'm not worried about it.

Congrats Scott, let me know when you plan to go and I'll take the day off- we can hook up here again and head up there if you wish.

Hey Larry,
I don't know what to do about those header bolts. Brent told me they use mostly the stock bolts or the supplied bolts with the headers they install. He does not sale the Stage 8 bolts or any other header bolts. I am not sure what to do. He also said they have no issues with the stock bolts coming loose. BTW, that price on Ebay is 1/3rd cheaper than Steeda for the same kit. Yeah, the bonus fairy was pretty nice this year and if I don't do it now it might never happen. At my age you have to go for it while you can. I am not even sure why I had Brent ship me the cams since all I will do is rub them until the install.
Scott
