I think what you should really get is something with SVT on it...
+1 to both.

As busy as you are now George with the job and fam, a resto project will end up taking the back burner.

SVT..

Wet roads and you didn't have the TC on?

Speaking of torque, since you're not really dragging the car anymore, any reason why you haven't de-tuned it yet?

Why push it? Just sayin'..

Yeah a little reckless, but fun none the less. I will admit it wasn't near as bad as I made it out to be. It was dry in LBC and was showing off and toying with my friend who was in a rental crap-box. By the time I got to La Mirada and up Valley View it was wetter and I had forgotten the TCS was off until leaving a light and spinning the tires once I hit the paint.

De-tuned.... I thought about that when it was 100+ this summer but de-tuned it with my foot. No boost when it was hot. I'm hoping it will last to get me to a DD and then forge. That's the plan at least. Knowing it's not a "sure-sign" problems have been naught for me motor wise and since I'm not hitting the strip I think the likely hood of me blowing it to hell is somewhat less. But you never know. If it happens and after I stop crying, I'll get it forged.

The thing is that I am 6"2 and the misses is 5"10 so my 2 yr old is the size of a your average 4 yr old
My son had kicked off the lever on the passenger (to move the seat forward) side seat 3 times on my S197. The few times the misses and baby were in the car at the same time....well let's just say they were fighting for space.
Lets see if the coyote engine comes out in the stang and maybe I'll let the misses keep the charger and I can jump into another stang.

Leo's UPS Sancho is sitting on the steps at Leo's old place crying right now for being abandoned.... No one to see everyday, no one to run out to the truck like he was selling ice cream, no one to help him unload, no one to wait patiently for him to 'round the corner. not even a "Dear John" letter. What a d|ck.
