Congrats. Been considering giving my car up for a while. It needs a paint job and very very minor bodywork (few small pea size dings, no actual dents) but is mostly stock. Door panels just now showing signs of wear. Slightly noticeable but not bad.
Nonstock items are the ac compressor, alt...
R888Rs need to be at 160-220°F for optimum operating temps. They need nearly as much of a burnout as a DR to get sticky. They will not, of course, be as sticky as a true DR but they're decent.
Termis aren't DDs for many people so getting rid of them for a good profit makes sense at this point in time. I suspect this may not be the case in six months given how high priced everything is, it's unsustainable.

Just wanted to point out that Todd Warren is still contributing to the mod motor community in meaningful way and it helps us all.
The build is pretty basic so no super crazy parts but...
I don't understand why motorists have to give a damn about morons who walk in the road.
I suppose you can say "iTs AbOuT tHe KiDs YoU mOnStEr!" but my parents taught me that roads are for cars, not people. They also taught me to look both ways when crossing the street.
If you walk your ass...
the best part about this car is the 2.2 engine. it had a cosworth head and fully forged rotating assembly. Mahle supplied the pistons, Crane supplied the cam specs but apparently they were made in italy. the rods came from a mfg called Casar, im not familiar with them, european mfg i guess. the...
those two oils are the same oils at any temp that matters to an engine. if anything, the 15w40 will have less VIIs in it vs the 5w40 so itll be a little less prone to shearing down in high heat and longer oil drain intervals.
also, T6 5w30 is REALLY thick for a 30w. its practically a 40w...
my vert is nowhere near as nice as the OP's car. shes got 93K on it and while the interior is pretty ok, she has a fr500 repro wheel and and TMI pro chicane seats. it needs a paint job pretty bad and the body has a very very minor dings here n there. i also need to replace a motor mount.

Apparently I'm the the minority here in regards to the Blackwood. I think it's ugly as hell and nothing more than an insulting, badge engineered F150 with reduced functionality in ever way.
Lincoln couldn't be bothered to put real wood in the interior for a $52,000 truck and used an F150 dash...
