Thanks!!
It is actually parked in the garage awaiting new parts.
GT-40 intake,65MM throttle body, and a few other minor things.
Oh and maybe even 3.27 gears.(Will be DD once done)

I tell everybody my 5.0 is "slow"...

When they ask what I got, I just tell them its a warmed over, stock block, 5.0 with a little sqeeze on it.

Nothing special really... :wink

About 2/3's of the people who I let look under the hood...dont even realize what they are looking at.

If it's a natural and will remain so, get 4.10's or else you will regret

You can get 'em as cheap as $140 Summit brand, $160 Richmond Gears, Motive Gear, Superior Axle, Ford Racing and so on.. pricing's from Summit Racing of course..
