Fun times ahead for the Mach

[brtnstrns]

When I picked up the Mach in October, I remember test driving it and the awesome feeling of spinning the tires in 2nd and 3rd gear. Well since I swapped in the IRS, I had to go from 4.10s back down to 3.55s. Well, this makes the car a whole lot less fun under 2500 RPMs. So, I'm looking forward to this:



4.10s, installation kit, and ford racing upgraded cover. Now the IRS will truly be bulletproof (also has full FTBR kit - fingers crossed!) and if the car is really pushing over 390 RWPH like the previous owners dyno graph showed, it's gonna be a hell of a good time. Hopefully have these all installed in the next month or two (sucks I gotta take the pumpkin out again, oh well), then 4 wheel alignment, then hopefully a few months after that save up to get it tuned perfectly. So excited

I can't take any credit for it since the previous owner had the engine work done on it (thank goodness cause that saves me a ton of money). But its a 5.0 stroker generally built by HPP (originally started as an MMR motor but didn't last long apparently). Ported intake and head work, comp cams, intake spacer, mac LTs, electric water pump, cobra tank, upgraded fuel rails and injectors etc etc.

If it has the FULL FTBR kit, that diff cover won't fit without some milling.

Well, sorry, it's got the full kit minus the upgraded rear diff mount - but the other "full" kit comes with a bushing to replace the rear diff bushing. I don't seem to have any driveline vibration so the replacement mount isn't really necessary.

This is from when I first got everything hooked back up. It was late at night and in my apartment garage so I didn't get on it much at all, but it still sounds pretty sweet. Its MAC LTs, Lethal Performance Catted X-pipe, and Steeda catback
