LOL funny you say that, I got chrome door lock pins in my stocking this yr.
#6
So given that, I recommend option 3.... of course, with MGW
#7
It just felt too notchy for me....tried it in the Mach1 , then switched to a HURST and like it MUCH better! I have never tried the Tri-ax shifters though....
It's funny how I can post this same thing on another forum and get an exact opposite!
SVTPerf.com poll shows that everyone on there says to go with the POWER option hahahah, here it shows suspension/handling is the popular choice.

Suspension is usually inexpensive and easy to do. And you can also do it a piece at a time. Go for power because it will be more expensive and is more gratifying. A good suspension is just not as exciting. SVTP guys want the power first and are a little more excitement oriented. Members here are a little more refined. Except for me of course.

for $400 I'd install a Ford Racing Pro Cal tune...great improvement in throttle response and low end torque. Car pulls harder throughout, and you don't have the warranty worries you will with after market tunes...and I have no problems what so ever with the stock shifter.

I agree with you on the procal, as that is on my next to do list. Although, had to comment on your shifter comment. I had no problems with my OEM shifter too, worked just fine. But then when I got my MGW, I realized how vague, imprecise, sloppy, the oem one was. I guess what I'm getting at is... it's hard to know how much better something can be if all we have is that same something... try out the MGW, it's night and day to the OEM.

Hey man... I have been thinking about getting the 3d carbon spoiler. Do you have to drill new holes on the actual trunk?

Thank's for the tip, Z...btw, years ago my best friend owned a '70 Z w/ serial # 0003457...supposedly they kept the first 2000 in Japan. Guessing yours was a bit newer.

Very Cool! You both are into the hobby. I have the whole family with me here at the Ocala/Silver Springs show for the weekend.
