As long as you use this as a polish.

I just got my 530 hp 98 Stang back on the road tonight, and almost got creamed by a trailer with a modular home.

I had to change heads, clutch, tranny, rear, driveshaft, axles, one spindle, one A arm, three wheel studs, pistons, connecting rods, and a set of gaskets from a unexpected early nitrous shot.

Dude, that dent sucks. Even if it is a Ford.



















(a Ford that would kick my ass)

Didn't have the money, had to put it back together with stock parts

Hopefully I can finish up the remaining things tomorrow, and hopefully it runs right after I finish.

Well at least you got the heads ported, and got the studs....swapping out the rockers later is a lot easier!

Yeah, pulling off the valve covers is a lot easier than pulling the heads.
