I drove to Los Angeles and then to Long Beach last month for an all Convertible Mustang cruise. Then I made a trip to Huntington Beach the following weekend for a sick car show/cruise that happens once a month. If you'd like to see a video that I put together of those events you can find them on my YouTube channel, High Density Network. What I see before I hop in every time. Freakin love it.[ATTACH=full]9622[/ATTACH] Anyways, this car just keeps getting better and better. I swapped the jets out from 31/16 to 35/17 which according to Nitrous Outlet's jet chart is a "50 shot". Wow, what a difference in the hit! Now it really feels like it's going somewhere in first and second. It still falls on it's face in third. I want to gear it. I also had to build a solid bracket for the nitrous bottle, not only to secure it a lot better but to also achieve a better mounting angle. A 15* degree angle is suggested when mounting the bottle horizontally.[ATTACH=full]9620[/ATTACH] It's two separate pieces, and each piece is made to mount to the factory seat holes. The rear piece has a stubby boxed section to achieve the angle I was looking for. [ATTACH=full]9621[/ATTACH] Total cost was $0. All scrap parts.I also wired up a bottle heater that I got for stupid cheap. It's basically just a heating element/heating blanket, nothing fancy about it at all. This thing works excellent and heats up way fast. I made a shoddy little plate to hold the switch in place. [ATTACH=full]9623[/ATTACH] Since I deleted the center console I had to do something about the wiring harness that runs inside of it. I ended up deleting a few pins on it and splicing in the bottle heater to the wires that operated the cigarette lighter. [ATTACH=full]9624[/ATTACH] I retained the switch for the convertible top as well and tucked it nicely. It's still completely accessible even if I'm strapped in. [ATTACH=full]9625[/ATTACH] Next I need to drill a hole in the floor pan to mount the blow down tube properly. I have to figure something out on that because the tube might be a little bit short due to the angle the bottle valve needs to be in (45* degrees).[ATTACH=full]9626[/ATTACH] Since my last update I also got a chance to prime down both side skirts and as high up into the door jambs as I could. The body work is really coming together.[ATTACH=full]9627[/ATTACH] I'm currently working on the last pieces that require paint preparation, the hood and the A-pillars. I'm really particular about the details when doing all of my sanding. This makes the process a lot longer but gives the greatest results.[ATTACH=full]9628[/ATTACH] Well, that's all for now. Thanks for looking, and thank you for being interested in my project. $$$$$$$$$$ Dirty Money $$$$$$$$$$[ATTACH=full]9630[/ATTACH]</blockquote>
