Did those vans come with a 4.6 or 5.4? I don't recall seeing many 4.6 3v with the issues that the 5.4's were having. If its at 130k and you don't hear chain slap, it may be a good one. From what I remember, if they are going to have issues, they start around 100k.

Chiller killer. Look into them. Several guys here running them with proven low intake air temps.

Great build thread. Keep it up!

Looking for a charcoal dash and center console. Shipped to 38606 Let me know what you got and price. Thanks

Wouldn't expect anything less! Attention to detail on this build has been fun to watch. Again, car just keeps getting cooler.

What gear are you running in the rear? Even with a 3.73, I finish the 8th at the top of 3rd gear. Sounds like you are getting into 4th, which you shouldn't in the 8th. 2nd seemed to be nothing but spinning...a stickier tire will yield you some nice times!

Only weird if you don't act on it..... Nice job, man. I'm anxious to get your take on the improved stopping power once it is all back together.

Car is coming along! I remember when it was dipped white with gold bullitt wheels. I have loved watching your progress with it, and the attention to detail is great! Any plans for boost down the line?

Ohhhh that's nice. Can't wait for updates. Been following this build on instagram for years. Really love the attention to detail that has gone into it. Good work!

Good to hear! I am anxious to receive all of the items and really get to put a nice job into this car. I will try the microfiber pads next. Thanks for all the help!

Well, I ended up ordering a new DA to try out, and the CCS Lake County foam pads. 3 orange, 2 polishing, and 1 for wax. Also ordered the finishkare 425, and the Duragloss 105. Going to start with the M205..

You did better than me! Mine didn't come with proper cables, unfortunately. Those springs....sheesh! LOL

So as far as microfiber pads, any recommendations? Putting an order together through Autogeek tonight.

I'm definitely going to give the microfiber pads a try. I love that they can be washed, and microfiber gets better and better the more they are washed from what I hear. Definitely could get more use out of them than the traditional foam pads.
