It does look good . Dont let anyone sway your choice of Mods. It's your Boss and you have the right to make any changes that you want. That is.......unless someone wants to pay your loan off. That all said: Nice Job, Keep up the good work and keep us posted on any handling changes......Good or Bad .

Gary, I think its safe to say you'll be running that stock suspension for a while then.

Hey Bill--if you change your mind about getting on-the-track w/ the car, check out www.proautosports.com. I will be out there running staring in September through December. It's a blast.

With all the people upset about the delivery time on the Boss sometimes you have to sit back and think how lucky were are having only one Boss. Someone always has it worse, having to wait on two must have been a b!tch

+1 for tint. We're at 59 consecutive days of 100*F+, it was time.

30% on the sides and limo on the 1/4 windows and rear.

I have the book on order, I'm curious as to what they point to ie; understeer, oversteer or what. I have drove a fair amount with the Roush 1" springs in the rear and have't noticed any real difference. I haven't been on a track @ 10/10ths but it sure does look better than the we gave ya clearance for tire chains look. Kidding aside it would suck to discover snap oversteer or sumthin!
