750 with A/C on i imagine. When you come down to stops it just hits 750 and stays there right? Not wobble up and down? They need to fix this for me. Mine is shaky when it comes to a stop and dips below the 750 and again lower with the A/C on. Enough to kill the engine. I have to drive no a/c at stops.

Nope none of that at all. It was killer hot out here, 100 or so, had the A/C on and it just stayed right there.

You must of added this sentence later, I missed it first time around. Oh sure... just use me for a few months and toss me away.



I'd love to hang with you bro. Where do you reside? How about a BBQ next Sunday at my place? Maybe the rest of the crew will get jealous and join us!

Wow Leo, that's some meat! Congrats!!!

Yupers, that's an invite! I have to double check my calendar when I get back to work on Tuesday but I don't think there will be a problem.

Holy batman your rods are.....

Look at our rods...

Modular Mix & Match, Part 1

Stock Modular connecting rods (except 2003 Cobra) are of the powdered-metal type with cracked caps. Stronger "I-beam" and "H-beam" rods (center and right) are available from Manley Performance. The 2003 Cobra engine gets the Manley units.

Link from where it came.

I would not say no to that. Talk about one fast ride. The car you filthy minded perverts Her or Danica.... I feel like a dirty old man though.... I remember in the late 80s-early 90s when John flipped the car over in the sand-trap in Pomona and came back up the return road standing on a flat bed with the car all messed up and Ashley on his shoulders waving to the crowd.

Sounds Good That's May 4th, right ?

If I had a chance, I would.

If it's happening Sunday is the only day for me.... I'm practicing my Smoking skills on some baby backs Saturday to make sure that when the BBQ happens at mom & dad's we do it right. BBQ weekend.

On another front... anyone else watching the NHRA race today ? Ashley Force won, the first Female Funny Car winner...
Yup totally agree it was awesome watching them draft. Also saw the NHRA races. She almost lost it on the second to last race.

Ian - what's up! Late june... that's coming up fast. The stang going with you?

Just got back from the Edlebrock show with the socal crew Boy, was it hot.
Yup. She is going north with me. I need to represent the California Special with the California Kid

Staggered does look sick. Dan's GT has staggered wheel. Looks great.

Ray's BBQ cooking is the bomb. I have left over beer from the service.

That is very close. Wanna ask Dan and Ashley. I know that they live a distance but you never know.

Question about LCA's. Is there a big difference, other then price, between tubular and billet as far as performance/life/NVH? And are they noticable in DD or just when in WOT? I *might* buy a pair this week.

If you want the bling, look no further than the billet LCA's.
