Sounds like you got the master plan, just have to put it in motion.

touche' nicely played sir.
On deck for this week..
Another oil change!
It's been around 600+ miles since the first change, so it's that time again.
This time, I'll be stepping it up to the Motorcraft synthetic blend 5W30.
Still will go with the standard Motorcraft filter.
So in total, I now have around ~1100 miles. After this change I'm wondering if I should spread the interval to 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500, or 3000 miles?
I do know that both MMR and Greg said don't even entertain the thought of running full synthetic until after 5k miles.

Koji, what made you get a Meziere electric water pump?
I've always been interested in getting one, but always chickened out.

First of all, jury's still out on the longevity. I've heard both sides on durability. If mine goes, I'm f_cked as no tow truck's gonna hook me without screwing up my front bumper... As to your question, since I've got to pay for dance, piano and day care , I can't afford to blow any warranties, especially my Roush blower. As such, the only mod I could do that could POSSIBLY boost my output by reducing parasitic load was this electric water pump. Plain and simple.

At knotts there was another 1972 429 Torino, turns out there were 52 built in Maroon. Makes me miss my car even more.

When I was N/A, I almost went with the Meziere because it was one of the last 'bolt-on's' left to do.
The oil in my motor now is a conventional dino Mobil 5W30 oil. Thus, a synthetic blend is a step up from conventional.
Whether your bumber gets messed up or not will greatly depend on what type of tow truck driver you get; one that gives a sh*t or not.
Nope, not at all. Don't forget, I'm no longer running the Mobil 1 synthetic like I did before.

So that's motor craft ?
becuase if so I'll just let the dealer do it as I have less & less time working so hard getting the Big Bonus 's and all

Three Sheets was a drinking show that aired on Mojo HD. That cable channel went dark on Dec 1st. The host of the show, Zane Lampry, is looking for a new network to pick the show up.
If you've never seen Three Sheets, you're missing out!
Hulu
Looks like a fun hill to attack!

Bill - can your front go over curbs when parking? I accidentally went to far once and found myself safe It barely clears it. I'm asking you and not Brian because he has FRPP springs. Different variable. I've never scraped and have had no issues
Meanwhile, mine is stuck out in the rain. I'm going to spring for that cover. It's too much rain
Brian - great plans you have with a DD there. I'm just trying to look for a beater. I keep drifting to fox bodies every time I look They can be had for cheap. You can fix them up fairly cheap and it's a mustang

Nope, it'll be crunch time. This is why I prefer to reverse it in parking stalls.
