I'm planning on repainting my camcovers before then. Not sure if I'm going to use the same color as before or just go with black and call it a day.

Check this out. Not so much the headlight but what's in place of the turn signal. Brake ducts??

I have always wanted to paint my headlight buckets to stick out, like in the photo. Never noticed the turns being removed though... my guess would be air ducting to either the brakes or filter I guess.

Yup, I'm guessing brake cooling ducts.
I think we need front turn signals though, or else risk getting popped for another fix-a-ticket.

Hey! We resemble that remark!

No way I'm spending $200+ on camcovers. I'll just paint it black and it won't show flaws or dirt as easy. If it wasn't a DD I'd buy chrome. I've seen to many DD's with chrome parts that just look like crap after awhile.

The turn signals are built into the headlamp.

Wish I could join yall, I'll get over to the left coast one of these years.

I've got a car show to go to Saturday. I may be seeing the Roush Reactor Mustang.


Jed, is your paint stock, or was it redone; for it to be wetsanded and polished?

That was my thinking exactly! With the money I saved by painting them I was able to order today my sct x-cal tuner from JDM with
two tunes, one with the stock air box and the other with the c&l racer. should be here by the weekend

I just hope that the wrinkle finish holds up, so far so good.

Tom Great numbers!! Glad you have it all sorted out!

That's fine, just need them for basic reference. Just don't wait too long, by Sunday I'll have my own reference pics.

+1
How long does it take to scan a dyno sheet?

Painting the covers is fine, I was just harassing Leo.

Good deal on the JDM package! Finally going to wake up the PJ!

OK... here are the results:

First Pull: Only some minor tweaking to the tune:

434.8 RWHP, 464.1 RWTQ, 6.9 psi, 11.7 - 11.8 A/F Ratio

Ponies on The Run!-trickpro1.jpg

Second Pull: One turn on the Boost Controller & some fuel added between 3500 and 4000 RPM to soften the rise in the A/F ratio:


475.2 RWHP, 505.6 RWTQ, 10.0 psi, 11.7-11.8 A/F Ratio
