    yup. but just some shorties. ive come to the conclusion that dumping a bunch of money towards performance just isnt worth it. Modular motors need forced induction to make big power and even still id rather dump any of that money towards the stang because thats far funner to drive and would be a better use of money imo.

    Waiting on the machine shop. Gonna be swapping to new Romeo heads with 01-04 mustang cams. Gonna be tearin apart the transmission pretty soon and see what needs to be done. It ran perfect when I pulled it but figured it'd be good to refresh it/add a few better parts

    so pulled the tranny apart just to check it all out, put the case in the parts washer. Tranny has 100k miles and is all original, didnt have any issues but just wanted to check everything while Im already this deep in. this clutch packs look awesome. Probably gonna replace anyways, but Ill be getting a new reverse drum because of some wear on the ears but everything looks top notch inside still, thats a good feeling.

    intermediate clutches still look fine

    Heck yes danny. Ford tough. Glad to hear the tranny has no issues. I have 133k on mine and want to go for awhile before i have to tear it apart. Nothing wrong with making it stronger though

    ordered more parts, for the tranny went with raybestos stage 1 red clutches and kolene steels, still deciding on shift kit ( may just do j mod) and torque converter. That combination of clutches and steels is supposed to hold 550-600 hp. so should work for my truck haha
