[QUOTE="Paul., post: 15196505, member: 156070"] Thanks man. :) Thank you. Me too. Although it was a huge pain in the ass, it really was worth it. They look and work perfectly just like OEM. They are extremely comfortable, even on long trips. (I've done 5 hours straight in them) They are, by far, the best mod I've done to the car so far. Haha. Well, keep in mind this is a nearly four-year build for me. Some parts of this build (like the seats) are for detailed write-up purposes so that other guys can feel comfortable making the attempt if they want. I've been into 5.0 mustangs since the 90s, so it's nice to help folks out like people helped me out. It's four years of thread squished into one post. :) The thread on my "home forum" is 11 pages long. Thanks for the compliment. Thanks man. Yes, the Coyote continues to come along. I really, really like this car. I've almost caved a couple times and bought a '13/'14 Shelby, but have resisted thus far. Yes, my notch is up and running these days. I actually drove it about ten miles for the first time two weeks ago. It has been a huge project spanning nearly nine years. Now that it's up and running, I'm looking for a place to narrow my axle so I can measure for the huge wheels and get them ordered. I think I'm going to run Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial IIs in 345/30R18. It should look bitchin'. Of course, there's a million other odds and ends that still need taken care of too. I hope to get it to a point of being sort've "done" this year so I can just cruise it around and enjoy it. Thanks Aaron. I'm sort've at a crossroads with the car. I really love it all the way around, but I want more power. I've resisted modding the motor because the only engine mod that makes any sense to me is a blower. No use in spending a few thousand bucks to gain 40 hp when I can spend $8,000 and get 200 hp. Of course, then I'll waste the driveshaft, and then the clutch, then the spider gears, and on and on and on. I've been down that path many times with all my other Mustangs, so I'm trying to decide if I continue to enjoy it (and race it) the way it is, or I buy a Shelby. Still, a blower would probably placate me for a while longer. :) Paul. [/QUOTE]
