You know I started my T-bird today because I had to move it to my parents garage so I could clean out mine. It sounds exactly like your Cougar ;).

I've got Flowtech Afterburners, which I believe you're also running.

You really need to get the Cougar on the street and drive it. I forgot how fun mine is to drive since it's been in the garage since the last week of October. The streets were clear last night (no salt or water, I wouldn't have had it out if there was any) and since it was cold (about 36*) the car had problems getting traction above 1/2 throttle. I could fish tail down the street, which was kinda fun. I think you'll really like the engine you have once you start driving it. It will only be more fun once you add a blower. When you do get a blower I strongly recommend a Kenne Bell. Instant boost and instant torque at low rpms would make your Cougar really fun ;).

Jerry I'm sure you mentioned it somewhere in this epic tale of epicness but I don't think I will be able to search it out... What paint did you use? Factory black or another?

It's not factory... I believe it's a Chrysler black. Straight urethane, no clearcoat
I never liked Ford black. even my Ranger looks boring... It just doesn't pop
