It is the most complete kit for the cost. And also I like that it keeps the boost low enough for me not to worry about the bottom end.

And it looks good. I will have the fuel rails sanded and painted, I think they went to far with all the name badges.

I am getting my list of shot together so I know how much Cash I need for my mods.

I need a timing chain wedge tool and a valve spring compressor.

Just those two tools are gonna run me 450$. There has got to be cheaper ones. Wonder how much to have them installed? If it is cheaper I might just have Mustang Magic do the cams.


Also, I am guessing that I would need a phase limiter or cam lockout if I am going with a comp stage 2 cams.

I sent you my number give me a call sometime when you get a chance... Let me know what cams you are doing... If you are doing NSR... I can help you do them easily without tools... Timing wedge is a waste of money either way... (make it, use a garden hose, tie a rope to your garage door track then to the chain, zip tie it up or JUST HAVE SOMEONE HOLD IT FOR THE 5 Seconds it takes...)

I did mine quick... My drivers side would have been so easy but I over examined it and took some time too think too much.. Drivers side took 1hr and passenger side too 10mins cause i knew what i was doing...
Hardest part was pulling off the valve covers and not knocking over the oil floating rockers...

SO give me a call... I have a wire mess so I help you you help me lol... :headbang:

We need to have a cam installation party. :) I want to get some real bad but I am thinking about getting my heads ported & polished so maybe I should wait.

If you are getting the heads done, I would wait and do the cams at the same time. I am getting to the point of just saying Fuck it, and pulling the whole motor so I can do a forged bottom, heads, cam, and headers in one shot. Then just drop that bitch back in and call it a day, or few.

Still waiting for my obama stimulus bailout package he promised all the Construction workers.
