The big thing was getting past the smog nazis. I did it! Had to go to the BAR ref.....twice but he finally certified it! Had to go for the dyno and sniffer test twice also but it passed today with flying colors! Now I'm legal and the PD can't touch me! This puppy cruises like a dream. Handles quite well with an 8.8 TC rear w/3.55's and fat sway bars and stops on a dime with 4 wheel discs. Haven't had the motor dyno'd yet but I'm expecting 350+ in the hp department. Oh yeah..........30 mpg!<br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/THUNDERSTANG/P6140001-1.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/THUNDERSTANG/P6140003.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/THUNDERSTANG/P6140002.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/THUNDERSTANG/P5230007.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/Misc%20photos/P6050001.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br />The coveted BAR certification.<br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/THUNDERSTANG/P6140002_01.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /><br />So very, very clean!<br /><br /> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v356/evintho/THUNDERSTANG/P6140001_02.jpg" alt=" - " /><br /> <br /> <small>[ June 15, 2010, 12:41 AM: Message edited by: evintho ]</small> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Notch1320</b> <br /><small>Member # 2647</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2010,5,14,23,17,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> That is a clean little car!
