heads have to be pulled to replace valves. fr5oo top end stuff is different than regualr 4v stuff.

i smoothed the coil covers and painted them. the bezels were painted by previous owner, did a piss poor job so i fixed that. and installed the GT pump tonight.

SWEET2KSTANG · October 23rd, 2009, 12:50 AM

as soon as modular performance is done with the head, i will start putting it back together. i just wish i could be there when rob gets it tuned.

Mach Boy · October 23rd, 2009, 08:38 AM

I'll film it.

SWEET2KSTANG · October 23rd, 2009, 08:59 AM

Molitor · October 23rd, 2009, 09:16 AM

SWEET2KSTANG · October 23rd, 2009, 09:27 AM

hmm what esle did you do?? ur not telling us something

SWEET2KSTANG · October 23rd, 2009, 09:37 PM

well, this is the 3rd time we have gotten together for mods. i will actually probably have more than 100hrs in this car. i have done just about everything on the car minus CAI, and tuning since he has had the car i believe.

Mach Boy · October 23rd, 2009, 11:20 PM

I did the control arms, RAI, the rear springs, water pump and driveshaft

The tune, UDPs, and subframes were put in by local guys here in St. Louis. So that leaves everything else with Mike's fingerprints on it.
