    Gen2 Engine Rebuild Needed or not?

    I went with a built Gen3 shortblock. Hindsight, I should have just went with an OE Gen3 shortblock.

    Gen2 Engine Rebuild Needed or not?

    Did he look in the cylinders with a bore scope? When I broke the ring land in mine, the piece of loose piston dinged the electrode strap on the spark plug, causing it to misfire immediately. Limped it home a short distance from the track for further inspection. The bore scope confirmed the...

    I talked with them about that bar during the fitting session we had a couple weeks ago. The bar sits in the same space where the plastic trim was below the steering column, and in place of the glove box on the passenger side. Should be far enough up and in to not make contact with my legs...

    Thanks Ricky. No firm plans at the moment, but quickly removing the obstacles to being WTW legal. Really just a cutoff switch, fire suppression system and some containment nets from being legal now. I took the weight penalty and had them install the .120” wall tubing that NASA requires for...

    The Mustang is still at Tracspec for the cage install, and I was already signed up for my friend Kyle’s annual Racing for ALS charity event at Willow Springs. Decided it was a great chance to introduce one classic icon to another! For a donation, they had a photographer doing roller shots on...
