Dam that fuel pump is loud,must be a holley.
One in my old cougar sounds just like it.
You bringing that to mapleview ron,like i had to ask LOL.
Don't think i can make it this week though.
On a + note, the sc stuff should be off by next weekend.


LOL, Yep it is a holley, I think it is screwing up though.  Sometimes it is loud, then it goes quite, then comes back loud again...  I am on afternoons this week so it will be a no show for me as well.  Let me know when the SC stuff is ready to rock, and I will come get it.

Provided i get the engine out tommorow(pretty sure i will) then the stuff will be ready for pickup this weekend bro.
Judging by your video,the sound gets softer when she idles down(due to less charge being sent to the electrical system)then goes back up just off idle when the voltage comes up,normal,mine does the same.

K cool, because I just got my personalized plates for it today and they wouldnt look right on a stock tbird.. ;) .
You are right about that in the video, but the video doesnt capture what I mean...  I can be cruising along and you can hear the pump whinning away, then all the sudden it goes  near silent for a few seconds, then comes back to noisey..  The pressure barely changes when it does it...  I will have to take you for a rip sometime and show you what I mean.:D

Np sounds good ron.
NO SPOILER,it looks weird because it's a CAPRI not a RUSTANG,the hatch really sets it apart.
I can't believe it carpimp actually had a few good idea's LOL,as i thought the same,just no crome rims.
However if i know ron, those things will be fixed within a week.

X2  Im amazed! LOL.
yeah Im not putting a wing on this unless I swap a stang hatch on, then it will have the Saleen wing, NO chrome rims, too flashy.  I was actually going to redo the flat black last weekend, but I was haveing too much fun driving it.  Will probably tackle it this weekend.  the car will be getting repainted this summer so the bumper paint doesnt really bother me right now.  May touch it up this weekend as well anyways, we'll see.
