Nothing exciting to view but exciting for me to improve my lousy ride quality.... Replaced stock (156k mile) shocks,struts and inner/outer tie rod ends with new motorcraft parts. This should take care of the steering wheel play (inner tie-rod ends were loose enough to shake by hand)

Swapped the drag wheel and Tire setup out with the street setup on the notch now that the race season is over.

I got rid of the stock oil dip stick tube that wouldn't fit with my headers and never read correct anyway. I replaced it with a Lokar dipstick that is way nicer

What is the part number on the dipstick from Lokar if you don't mind me asking? I have to do the same thing this winter.

Lokar ED-5004. Found a dealer on eBay for $49. The old one pulled out fairly easy from under the car and the Lokar I installed by pushing and turning a bit from the top-side. I oiled up the base and O-rings before installation.

Uh.....tech write?

Nice work! Now hows about a tech write up on that!

Thanks man! I actually used the write up on this site for the COP harness, it was spelled out in an easy step by step guide. I used the site below (second time around) to have closer to exact measurements on wire length to make it cleaner/ use thicker gauge wires.

Went to install this little thing before dinner and was shot down by the update. Tomorrow I guess.

I laid in the hospital dreaming of wiring my holley system. Got the relay box and wired it up. Got the fuse box and drew up a schematic for all the wiring. And then laid here....

But wish me luck they are going to a follow through test in the morning and maybe a test will show something someday.....
