Very nice! I see that you corrected Ford's inexplicable omission of an intercooler.[cl[cl[cl

Goes like a bat outta hell and gets 30 mpg! I definitely need some lower gearing though. 3:1 in the 8". The T5 is in 3rd gear on the freeway!

Well done! What ratios are available for an 8" rear?

[Burgerman]

Awesome! Like those flames. I bet 100 mph is no problem with the 3.1 ratio. The track is calling.
