I like the cowl look personally on the stangs better than the scoops. I think Ford throwing all those fake scoops on them turned me on the scoop look.

Trufiber 3in Cowl Mustang Hood - Unpainted (10-12 GT, V6) TF10025-A49-3 - Free Shipping!

All the coolest fox bodies I've seen had cowls.

I had a working cowl similar to that on my Z. I like ones that go to the front like that.

yup. It has traction control. It wont spin a tire with it on. It will make you look like a fool.

Cars I've had with traction control defaulted to the on position. Sometimes I'd forget look stupid.

this is what mine will look like when I am done.

 

[bubbacurry1]

Same with his. Of course with it off it likes to walk sideways pretty good.

I took this car out and hammered on it yesterday. Spun all the way through 4th gear with the traction control off. I cut figure 8's with ease. Had to see what it would do.

Does the Stang have a six speed manual?

I am taking mine to my paint guy Friday. Hood, grille, and stuff shipped today. Should be delivered Thursday. Only thing chrome will be the 5.0 emblems on the fenders.

Does the Stang have a six speed manual?

yes. with a hydraulic clutch.

 

[Slydell]

Two of mine had that. Fun in the right places. Killer in traffic.

car has alot of compression. I figured my wife would have a hard time taking off in it. She actually took off better than I did the first time I drove it.

What is the compression on that engine? I don't have a clue with new cars.

That's getting back up there with the old muscle cars. My last Z was just under that. How much hp is it actually putting out and can you chip it for more?

guy told me it dyno'd almost 600 hp. It has a programmer on it. I can tune it to however I want. I am gonna bump it back a little from where it is now. The tune that is in it now has it running a little rich.

Can you tune it with what's on board or do you have a plug in programmer?

 

[bubbacurry1]

you have to plug it in.

 

[bubbacurry1]

stupid damned internet.

 

[Slydell]

Those things are great. I had one that some company in Nashville made. Can't remember the name but it did what I wanted.
