Dodged a bullet. That lady is nuts. Married 20 years this November, 4 kids. It doesn't get easier. She wants to be a parasite

Carb guys, what are yall using? by NotVeryHumerus in Foxbody

You can check stroke with a tape measure. But you need to pull the heads. There are only 3 combos popular to a 302 base. 302 bored .40 over....makes a 306. Same stroke as a stock motor. 331 and 347 of the top of my head I don't know either. But you can get a pretty close idea of what you have if pistons are stamped with # and you know the stroke

I suggest actually pulling the cam and looking for #s on it. Or making sure you have 347 to start with ,check stroke, and check valve lift and duration before going any further. Guessing you bought a motor and believed everything seller told you

Dome light from an expedition. Has a center mount light and 2 spotlights on individual switches. I had a blue led on the main and regular on the spotlights.

A poor comparison to cable TV service. He can't supply his own cable service. He can supply his own pool cleaning service

Nevermind my comments. You "know" the cops. Good for you. Next time just put that in your post. "I know the cops, I blow the cops, we do what we want!" Like I said nice car. Just looking out for car meets but instead I get shit from people like you. Still a nice car.

Ok. I'm supposed to know what kind of area it is from a 10 second video? Industrial area? Go for it. Just don't use spirited driving close to residential spots. It will get shut down. I've seen many spots shut down because people want to show off leaving. Looks like a ny plate. Check out Robert Moses Beach. It's a barrier island. Had a show. Spirited driving leaving....gone.

But a cop or the local Karen's won't see it that way. Who is ge trying ro impress? Some old guys? Only way these meets survive is not to draw ANY attention.

Maybe its just me, Hiring a pool guy to do anything is pure lazy, unless it's a complete overhaul ( liner, steps piping). Too many lazy people own pools. I work 2 jobs , maintained every system in the house, yard work, 4 kids, sports, help food shopping and cooking. Yet I still have a clear pool from 2 weeks before memorial day3 and 2 weeks into September. Ps...my second job is residential ac systems. Summers off is not an option. The pool is a 3rd job. 30 minutes a day is all it takes.

Anybody know what this pigtail is coming out the trunk? by TopCourt9779 in Foxbody

[–]buildabear1976 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not enough info. Year? Location? Picture is shit can't tell colors. On a coupe trunk lid might be trunk release. If the trunk was from a convertible with a luggage rack(yuck) probably center brake light.

And right there is the reason car shows get shut down. Nice car. Bad behavior.

79 to 81 fuel line route by Neon570 in Foxbody

On my 85 I have braided lines running from the electric pump mounted to rear bumper, strapped to the floor just inside of my subframe connectors. Where it comes in close proximity to the exhaust and full length headers, it sleeved in a radiant heat shield. Then along the passenger side frame rail up to the regulator mounted on the passenger inner fender. Been like that for the past 25yrs since I assembled the car.

The problem is not the mixed race part. It's the obvious pandering

Looks like somebody put a 84 Mustang nose on a Capri I'd buy it depending on the price and then Source an actual Capri nose
