Speaking of mods: I'm now looking into the rotorpros Which ones should I be getting again? By the end of this month I will have finished my exterior mods (with the exception of a shaker)
My plans in the past where to do all this by July...guess I met the deadline
Where's my sponsor?!

The majority has spoken.. SD and MGW can't co-exist, so it looks like I may end up converting over to all SD caps in the near future.
Brian: Parts look great! I didn't know that you ordered the UCA. I remember you talking about it, but didn't know you got it.
Leo: I think you couldn't get traction because of the track/parking lot condition and moisture. On gears, have no regrets on the 4.10's. Track is only 1% of your everyday driving, so if you're happy with the acceleration that the 4.10's provide on the street, that's what matters.
Just pick up a set of used 17's with DR's just for the track and take revenge on those BMW Z3's.
Jed: That camera mount looks robust! Makes my Sticky Pod look puny. You should be able to capture some killer in-car videos now!
Jon: I originally liked those lumpy Shelby hood pins, until I saw them in person. They're just too big for my taste. If I ever make up my mind on getting a set, I'd most likely go for the FRPP ones.
Luis: Cross-drilled and slotted!
Me: The 4Runner is history. Just picked up a 2008 Toyota Highlander Sport this afternoon for the wife. Loaded to the hilt, just shy of a Limited model. I think it costs a tad more than a Shelby GT.

Bill-Congrats on the new car.
Jed-That's some very $pricey$ looking camera equipment.
FYI-Hardcore Mustangs in San Diego is having a special on Saleen SC. They're offering the 450HP kit for 5169 with free install.
(Chekout that other "mustangforums" for more info.)

George THANKS !!!!
TacoBill WOW !!! That's nice, bet your wife was happy.
Off to put on the LCA's and Relos right after a quick bite for lunch. I'll take a couple pics of the differences between the BMR and CHE relos that I have been able to notice on Leo's write up and the product I have.
Leo was kind enough to send a UCA write up wow. I hope I don't need to do it. I will install it if I have to but if I don't I'm gonna save a bunch of time.

I just wonder if the screws will rust on the Shelby version. I think I deff like the look of these over the other Shelby ones. The're simple looking

I dig hood pins...... I've had the faux CDC stick-ons for years now, first on my '04 Mach 1 and now on the '06. I think though when I get a new hood, I'm gonna go "real".

It took me a little longer than I expected but the LCA/Relos are on. Didn't take many pictures during just a couple key shots. What a pain. The biggest problem what elongating the holes on the relos themselves, which is mentioned in the directions and luckily only on the pass. side. I think it was harder than it needed to be because I couldn't really get a good spot on a couple bolts to use the leverage of the torque wrench.
On the driver side the relo bracket was almost bent inwards and would not go on the stock shackle/bracket. Coupla blows with a hammer and we were cooking. The driver side took about 1/2 the time that the passenger side.
so here are a couple of pics ( it was late when I finished so daylight, can you see 'em pics will follow later.)
These two pics are to show how they 'line' up on the stock bracket, I didn't see the same fitment with the BMR brackets on Leo's car (not knocking your car or the brackets Leo)
Here you can see how it didn't line up. Luckily I only had to elongate it maybe 1/8-1/4th tops. Thank (deity of choice) for the drill press and having the right bit laying around.
The bracket is BOLTED down to the base and not held in with vise grips except for the small pair that was insurance from it twisting.... Sorry for the bad out-of-focus finished pic, it looked good on the little LCD
This was about as close as I got to a 'finished' pic, I just wanted to get it done and didn't want to get the camera filthy, so after this nada.
Road test... It feels good. I think it burns out easier, if it's possible. I gotta drive it some more.
