I plan on posting some pics, but my camera is messed up right now. This weekend it is suppose to be around 72 and sunny, so I should get some pics. I'll use a digital from a friend.

Almost have 500 miles on her.

Nothing so far, I only have 700 miles on her. A shifter will be in order in a month or so. Then Exhaust. Then . . .well this list begins!!

All-

Thank for the compliments!!

Should be taking her to the track in a month or two. After thorough break-in period.

WhiteMach1-

Only if I do well!!

It has been a while since I went to the strip. Been reading on mach1registry.com to identify launch RPM, shift points, etc. This is my first 4.6, though I've had 3 5.0 Capri's.

I keep wanting to shift around 5200rpm because of past experience with the 5.0. From what I've read 1/2 shift about 6400, and 2/3 about the same and hold 3rd through the traps.

I think I will wait for the shifter, and ***. I like the billet shift ***, but when my hands start to sweat (even a little) the shifter wants to slide out of my hand.

I am thinking about getting this shifter combo, or buying the parts.

Very Nice. I love the Mach 1s. I almost bought one in December (Azure Blue) but told myself to wait to see the 05s. Liked the 05 so much that I'm hoping they will make a Mach in that body style.

I saw a grey Mach today and it starting tempting me again...but I must resist.
