      Since you dolts couldn’t understand the reference he was making let me explain. He’s going to turn it into the Vanilla Ice “iced out” fox body of the 90s that was all white everything. He’s probably going to paint the whole car white maybe even do an all white interior like how the original was done. I’m 27 and wasn’t even born when he was relevant and the car existed yet still got what he was saying 😂

    I’m sorry but, white… there’s a reason that hotrod magazine called there engine “white trash”. Like some one else said at least you’ll be able to clearly identify ANY leaks but I would have left “the old grey mare” alone and just put some contrast color on it, not a complete respray. All I can think of the build now is “Ice, Ice, Baby” and depending on who you are that HAS NOT aged well nor will that white paint on that car if you actually drive it.

I swapped my 1991 Ford Mustang LX Convertible from an Automatic to a TKO600 in 2007, and never measured for misalignment. Never had a problem...cough, cough,cough...(just nightmares of what I might be doing to my transmission) It hasn't given me weird noises and doesn't seem hard to shift, but it is a nagging thought in the back of my mind.

    Do they know how hot it gets under the hood? Blocking off the fresh air intake for the motor is killing horsepower. Now that they have EFI.. they can just see how hot the air going down the throttle body is. We all know cold air makes more HP. Open element air cleaners look cool but just ROB HP. Im looking how to cold air my 68 Mustang. On a 65 deg day, rolling 45 mph, engine 180 degrees, air in the Holley Sniper 2? 100 deg. That's 40 degrees warmer than outside air, thats a lot less HP
