Super Jealous! I can't believe how little you had to do to get it running. It looks great after the clean-up too.

It wasn't much, because I've done this a few times before - old fords (any older car really) are super easy but then there was an old half ass installed alarm system that i had to remove and the guy decided to relocate the belt tensioner to some weird spot that didn't work and use the wrong serpentine belt... but again easy fix - put the tensioner back and buy the correct belt.

returning back stock resolves so many issues

funny how a lot of DIY think they can out-engineer the mechanical engineer teams at huge companies

 

[SRT41320]

Yeah its pretty crazy i don't even know wtf the guy was thinking... used a bolt that was about 2in too long and just added 20 washers...and it didn't even put tension on the belt

Damn, that is cool. I take it the Saleen front bumper is gone? Probably a bitch to try to find one.

Not really, they make reproduction front air dams and the entire ground effect kit, except for the rear diffuser which was 87 only - the reproduction ones are later models.

i already have a front air dam coming, and 3 out of the 4 wheels showed up yesterday!
