Yeah, I thought about giving you a jingle but figured everyone's busy with family. I thought about driving to Sonic in Savage or at least up to the Southdale area and find that Five Guys Burger joint.
yeah he made 460 awhp on map's and he made like 406 on DB's.... last year i raced him when he was at 337 and i was a 350 both on db's dyno and he beat me.
Happy Easter everyone. I finished installing my Swift springs last weekend, so I figured I'd post up a pic. Drop was about an inch all around....I think it's perfect, just what I was looking for.
Thanks Tommy for loaning me the spring compressors! It made the difficult job of replacing the front springs possible to do myself.

how do you like the ride? I put swifts on a honda I had a couple yrs back, based on rave reviews... and I did not like them. the drop was good and all, but the ride, well, um... no

or
406 shootout? (this would be not so 'a lot')
mine makes like 408 with no corrections and 501 in shootout... and mine is a rocket, but I am taking my Z into town shortly

don't worry fellas.... 80 acres of corn in the ground already. we be rolling so warm weather is on its way. we'll just appreciate it more when it does come.
And for those that may or may not know... my father had a kidney transplant on good friday (the 22nd). all is good with him and the donor. If any of you have the chance/opportunity to donate, it is a chance to do something truly special for another person and their family

Glad to hear your dad is fine, Aaron. I didn't know he got a transplant. Hopefully, I won't ever have to experience that but I'd do it for my family if it did happen.

I was a bit concerned about that too. So far I really like the ride, I drove to work 3 days this week and for a while yesterday. Very close to stock. A bit stiffer of course, but still pretty smooth.

i believe that is their shootout where it is supposed to be calibrated to mustang dyno numbers... interesting to see their shootout numbers compared to map's numbers. not close at all. have you taken yours to map yet?

Agreed. I've got an optima red in my 61 Continental - although the first one I had went bad after a year (there's always some bad ones).
I've left my lights on for more than an hour and it still starts right up.
Now having said that, it will probably be bad when I go to get it out of storage.

interstate, duralast gold or a premium battery from batteries plus. I have lost faith in the xxxx-top batteries. quality control isn't there to justify the premium price
glad to see you are still around. haven't seen you post much
