    The vendor will tell him the same. And yes, 211 and 740. These were the Mach 1 spring rates as well. Early on, Ford kept stiffening the rear of the car more than the front GT, GT PP, GT350-350R-500 are increasingly more rear spring with minor... (see full post)

    So the internet gives me a formula that says the stock spring rate is only 211 #/in on the Handling Package for the Dark Horse. 742 in the rear.

    Sounds like a nice arrangement. Holly and I have agreed that I cook and she cleans. And she usually cleans as I’m cooking. (see full post)

    I like doing the Weber and love the way it makes different foods taste. I usually handle that and Debby is the boss in the kitchen.

    Does that work with a newer, S650 Dark Horse? It says 18-23 (S550).Also, if it does work, please note that AJ Hartman says a maximum of 400 #/in. TeeLew is suggesting a range exceeding that, so you may want to check with the vendor prior to... (see full post)

    Bribed the wrap guys with some green beer and got them to do your stripes between sessions. 🍻 No beer for you till the end of the day after you have kicked everyone's butt.
