SHEOOOOOOOOT
hell with 13's lets see some 10's 
that 1-2 shift is killer
i can play answer man, its kooks headers into 2 bullitt mufflers (like a glasspack size) into a xpipe behind the trans out to 2 tiny mufflers under the bumper cover. his rims are from brad (baggedtaco) they are the correct bolt pattern and his rims are the ones in my sig pic. just go through the thread and look at the pics its all in there to see it all
(note the exhaust in the dyno vid is the second set up, listed above. there was a earlier setup that was too loud and looked tacky)

sorry for jacking the post but its all 4 the greater good, can i just keep my imrc open all the time? was the tune done on a dyno? called my local shop and they said 6~7 hunderd. ifor afull dyno tune, ihave no idea but if i can get it cheaper down there i can tow it there.

get a cookie cutter tune from lonnie at blue oval chips for a dohc into a bird, the window switch was the easiest and cheapest part so why skip it. were looking into doing a dyno tune to squeak a few more ponies out of it. also dont know what your planning for a exhaust, not sure if mark manifolds will fit we just skipped the maybe bullsh1t and got kooks headers for a dohc bird

just a follow up project thundermark is finally finished (for now) midwestbird is moving about 2 hours south so i had a few things to finish up on the car. i pulled the tank and swapped the pump, pulled the "whistler" drive shaft and also tossed in a 3500 stall also dont think i mentioned the jmod in here but that was done a few months ago. were taking it to the track next friday (see http://www.lincolnvscadillac.com/showthread.php?t=44691) and gonna see what she lays down now
*edit* also realizing i dont really have any "finished" pics he went for a thin double silver pinstripe to break up the sea of blue. i gotta bring my camera tomorrow maybe i can snap a few

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! BACK FROM THE DEAD!!!!!
figured why not? so as ive posted here and there, i got the car, well "ma did", it was that or i gave up the lincoln and uhhh no. so heres what ive been up to lately.
dont they look cozy
swapped out clusters because the needles kept falling off, drove it back with just a tach and a fuel gauge. here is the old cluster when i pulled it (the day the tach needle fell off)
and the new, not as nice but functional!
i even bought lurkers car for parts
then this nice man showed up
with these...... since ultimatesvt got the last set off the shelves i bought these off brads car, and dont worry i aint plannin too many miles on her this year, new rubber next year
oh..... and her plate came in
got some noise from the trans area, thinking converter or front pump. it knocks when its cold then is gone when warm, and there is a screeching noise from the center of the car if i launch it hard
