Two of the screws were too long and pierced the washer fluid tank. Black RTV to the rescue. I'm hoping to get it back together either today or tomorrow at least enough to get it inspected and back on the road in time for bantam. It won't be pretty just road worthy.

Shes looking good man! Ive done my fair share of rockers on the old mustangs at work, kudos, thats a helluva lotta work!

Installed my DynoMax Turbo muffler and cat back kit with the Magnaflow Cat.

Took it out for a test drive (Victory lap?) and I have tons more power, she makes 60 MPH at considerably less RPMs, and I can actually hear a medium growl coming from the power plant.

I can't believe I didn't do this sooner. Can't wait to see how much this is helping my mileage.

I need some louder speakers now.

Thanks, I'm just glad to have it inspected and back on the road. I'll start working on it again hopefully by the end of next month. I just needed it road worthy to rip out some bushes at the new place.

Its honestly not a bad job. Just very time consuming. Its more like a puzzle then anything.
