finally got all the parts I needed to finish the holley hp install. I have a little wiring to finish on the panel and then it should all be ready to throw in the car finally. Thankfully it will be in the 60s this weekend as well so the garage will be a little warmer the it has been lately.

I also realized after going through my mustang bible/manual that its not going to be nearly as helpful in some area anymore with the wiring being replaced. I started a new bible/diary that I started making wiring diagrams with color codes for all the new stuff I am running so later I will have something to look over if/when needed. Funny enough I grabbed an old school 3 ring binder that said something about "the writing process" on the cover and will probably get much more use out of it this way then originally. After filling it with the manuals from all the new stuff from Baer, Ridetech, MM, Steeda, Ford racing, and holley its already getting full and making me wish I got a big one before I stuck all my unused decals on it.

Wish me luck completing the hp install, I will need it... But holey hell I could think about starting it after a little more work I never thought about it till just then.........

Wasn't today, but over the last month or so I installed some '00 Cobra R brakes on the race car, and modified the header panel after I cracked it. Should provide the radiator with more cooling for open track days, WIN WIN!

Drove the car to work and back. Really enjoying the FR500 replica wheel.

Did a little work on the notch.
Pulled the body panels off the front end, did a little hammer work to the upper core support that was hit, installed the FRPP aluminum driveshaft, Stifflers transmission cross member, and Energy Suspension trans mount.

Pulled the front wheels off the car, pulled the bumper steer kit off, and sway bar off. And cleaned the threads for the ball joint. Didn't feel real ambitious. Lol

Made a trip to Menard to get a pair of grade 8.8 or higher bolts nuts and washers for the k member swap but turns out it is an inch to short. So need to make a other trip to some where else.

Next comes the removal / hanging of the steering rack, calipers spring removal and control arm removal.

Good Luck! I'm about to do the same with the notch.

Bolted in the IRS. Gotta drill a few holes for the steeda reinforcement plates, connect the driveshaft, install the exhaust and do all the brake stuff, then its just waiting for rear springs to arrive.

Installed my new Exedy lightweight flywheel and Mach 400 clutch with ARP bolts. Now I need to drop the K member and replace the oil pan gasket...
