Roommates sync is awesome.

I do like iDrive better, but that could be because of button layout.

And I <3 my Helga.

Wow, egg protein powder's gone through the roof.

[dem beats 1,223]

Skoll. Goofy win.

Glad I don't watch football. I would be sad to have missed that ending.

It's constantly crashing.  Stops reading the USB, won't communicate with the phone, stops working mid-call,  BT works when it wants to. . . .

 

Ford... Quality is job none.

Got to work on the Stang some more this weekend. A lift has been a godsend.

Installed a tubular export brace and monte carlo bar.

A before pic without.

Welded in subframe connectors. They connect where the front fo frame ends and the rear fo frame starts. should help with the body twist.

Prepped for welding. 

Dry fit.

Welded in.

Lower cross-member and finned aluminum oilpan installed. The crossmember is right behind the oilpan and ties the lower control arm mounts together. 

The Ron Morris motor mounts.

Please tell me you did NOT weld those while the car was on that lift?

I did. Was by far the easiest way. Being the car body is like a noodle, I really didnt see doing it on the lift as a bad thing. Is not going to make the car rock solid, just stouten it up. 

 

Why, whats your thoughts on it R1?

Getting ready to drop some coin on a Holley 650 double pumper and DUI HEI distributor. And some finned aluminium valve covers.

You always want the suspension loaded taking the weight, and the car level.  This is how the chassis will sit most of the time and how the uni-body develops it's "memory."

If you can wait a day, I think my old man has the Holley, an Edelbrock air gap and the valve covers in his barn.  He might let them go cheap.  I an get you some photos tomorrow.

I hear you brother. I really wasn't being to picky as its not my shop AND it beat welding them in my garage like i did the eccentric setup on the lower arms. 

 

Its at a dealership so they don't even have a welder. Had to haul mine from home.

Definitely interested. Let me know what you got. Thanks mang!

For the record i didn't tighten any suspension bolts until the suspension was loaded.

The Air Gap is one of the best all around intakes. Great setup if available, J

Remember that you will have no life from Feb to aPril but certainly not a bad gig.

Try Jan-Dec if you awed willing. My bil is one and pulls in $400k after 15 years of working 70hr a week

I knew I went into the wrong line of work!

[MKader17 332]

No thanks on the 70 hours, but $200K for 35 hours a week I would take.

[topgun 262]

If it was linear I would be working less than the 35hrs a week.
