Installed the new BMR rear springs and rear lower control arms that I've had for a couple/few months ... the front springs and new swaybar bushings are getting done soon. Car's still on jack stands and the weather is supposed to finally be warming up starting next week ...

You know you can always move west... At least we get winter in months that are supposed to be cold and wintery.

Seems like over the last few years in the eastern states the cold crappy stuff waits until it is supposed to be getting nice. Then it just pounds you with deep Sh**.


Not nice, but not cold and NO winter weather out here, at least in the last week or so.

Had my guy install the VMP triple bypass heat exchanger, Moroso coolant reservoir, ceramic coated headers/collectors, new MS109 tune to 775 RWHP...oh and linked the wheels to the TPMS. Tired of seeing that **** blinking light every time I glance at the dash.

It was unusually warm and sunny today, so I cracked open the passenger window while I was driving.

I'm expecting another 6" of white crap tomorrow.

Yesterday I installed the front BMR GT500 springs, did an oil and filter change on both Mustangs, and swapped the wife's stock wheels onto the car, holding off on the Alcoas until the usual beginning-of-the-season potholes get fixed somewhat.






I used new lower isolators for the new springs, since I already had them:




The new GT500-spec BMR spring was shorter than the GT-spec Steeda Sport spring I took out:




BMR spring short enough that I didn't need to compress them to put the top nut on and assemble the whole shebang:

Washed the vehicle, even though its in a garage most of the time the pollen from the trees makes everything yellow. Now I cover it with an old sheet, at least for a few more weeks.

Took it out of the garage, let it idle for a good long while, and dusted it off.
Re-activated the full insurance coverage instead of just the minimum I ran during the winter while it slept in the garage.

This picture will give some people on here a heart attack .... huh Tony and Burton?

Code Alarm makes alarms and remote starters, so it's one or a combo of those

Been good, you?

I just took the Mustang out for about 40 miles, ran it low on gas and re-filled with some fresh 93 plus an octane booster/fuel additive thing I use.
So nice to drive it again !!!
