    Made an appointment for this coming Monday to have the rear diff drained and refilled after the 500 mile break in and ordered a LubeLocker diff gasket which is supposed to work pretty nice with the aluminum diff cover so I’ll have that swapped out cause I’m gonna have him pull the cover even tho...

    Now we are pretty much caught up to where I am now, I decided I’d like to install a trac lok since I’ve got an open diff and at the same time switch out to 3.73 rear gears for quicker acceleration, so over a few months picked up everything needed all parts are Ford or Ford Racing: trac lok, 3.73...

    One of the passenger side cats started to rattle so picked up some new Magnaflow assembly’s had them installed and was able to sell the old cats for $250. The LWB Vics which were primarily taxis had an ashtray in the rear doors all you need to do is remove this panel and they pop in so was...

    License plate light lens was yellowed found an OEM one on eBay. Down the road I’d like to install Town Car seats and since my passenger seat isn’t power I’d need to add a switch so found a NOS door panel out of an LX Sport to have ready for a latter time. Since the Bullitt wheels poke out...

    The civilian Vic’s and MGM have a few of these rubber sound insulators the P71/P7B don’t have so I picked up a set there’s two for the B pillar as seen in these pics, one behind the rear seat on either side then the rear pillars in front of the rear window. Old front sway bar vs the new one

    Been slacking and haven’t updated this in awhile. After I installed the new wheels/tires I emailed my tuner and he sent me a new tune with the updated tire size so the speedo would read correctly size the Bullitt wheels/tires are like an inch smaller overall, so uploaded the new tune. Then I...

    That’s kinda what I’m thinking, in that case only real hp gain is a custom tune, I mean the power gain is nice but the drivability is a night/day difference fixes the sloppy trans

    I’m pretty sure you have the P71 airbox and tube with the LX sport if you don’t that’s I think a 10hp gain but you need a tune for that due to the increased airflow, only real hp gain you can do is a tune from Marty but that isn’t cheap comes with a tuner to upload the tune the drivability is so...
