New guy from ND

Hey everyone whats up. My name is Shawn and i dont own a cougar or a T-bird. I own a 93 Mustang Gt with lots of mods. Can we still be friends? I was referred by Capitlj. He used to own an 88 bluemax edition cougar. I used to call it the undercover mustang......lol! Sorry josh i couldnt resist. :)

Anyways The mods include.........CAI,70mm TB w/ egr spacer, edelbrock performer intake, lightly ported and polished gt-40's, E-303 cam, Mac 1 5/8 longtubes matching h-pipe, dynomax exhaust, 3g conversion, electric fan, a/c delete, ford racing radiator, eibach springs, welded subframes, torque box reinforcements, king cobra clutch, and 3.73's. Im sure there is more i am forgetting. O well. Here are some pic's of my pride and joy and a little vid. enjoy.

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
Torque is how far you take the wall with you

Where is your belt tensioner? Interesting setup. Motor looks like it would fit good in a cat or bird.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

He remembers well the little eccentricities of my cougar, most of the work was done in his garage.
