I mocked up like 5 times to ensure a good fit before trimming the hoses.


My hand feels awesome after muscling the factory PCV connectors into the new hoses. It was brutal trying to get them in all the way. When I took my gloves off I didn't realize I created and popped two huge blisters in the process lol


Turned out pretty good. I went with the silver powdercoat to match the strut bar, and the red/blue AN fittings for a trick look.


It looks great!

Driving is cool. Try it sometime
i just got my first oil change today! just under 11k KM not miles though.

got a tire inspection report done and the front and back at wearing evenly and are at 8 / 32nds for the front and back!

I KNOW I've worn out some of my rear treads.... maybe they just scribbled something down and didn't really measure ....

Thanks it's still pretty new, but I make it a point to wipe down the engine bay after every wash.

Thanks JoeMidnight ^^^!

Replaced my stock GT grille with the Boss 302 grille... Not a huge change, but I like the look. I think it makes the driving lights appear further apart, and its one more tiny step towards the "Boss GT" theme I've been working towards.

At $182 for the parts, its not too hard on the wallet, and the install is pretty simple (although you do have to do a bit of trimming around the light openings- the Boss grille has a lip designed to retain the block-off panels that has to be removed to work with the lights).

Nice set up. I went with the Moroso. I had to mount it on the drivers side due to the Edelbrock's coolant tank.

Thanks! I was considering the Moroso as well as it was a high quality unit and I liked the drain valve on the bottom. I went with the Bob's setup because of the variety of finish options and the pre-upgraded Russel Pro Classic braided nylon hose and AN fittings. Yours looks nice as well. I see you did the legwork and upgraded the hose and fittings yourself. That's a beast of a motor you got there

Keep, keep, keep! (IMHO ) The big grille lights on the Mustang GT are one of the things that immediately broadcast "S/he went for the fast one!"

Here's the link. The parts are 1 & 2 on the page (I ordered the retainer nuts as well, but the emblem comes with adhesive on the back, so they aren't necessary). If you decide to delete the lights, you would just need to order part 4 (both sides) and then remove the lights and their mounting bracket.

Since it was a nice day outside, I decide to put one last coat of wax on before winter sets in.

I removed my sound tube. That thing is even ugly outside the engine bay.

Swapped grilles today. Went with the Boss 302 grille to get the tribar emblem to make my center caps. Sucked that I had to pull the bumper cover off to get to it, though. Took me a couple hours in the rain today in my driveway, but I like how it turned out....

You do if you want to do it right and not risk damaging anything by yanking.

The install directions that I found online for it showed pulling off the bumper cover to make it easier to swap grilles. I just went with what the instructions said to do. Wish I would have known I didn't need to pull the bumper. Here's my car halfway into the swap yesterday...
