I am interested in your CE. Can you tell me the color and where it is located

I discussed this with a Ford engineer many years ago and believe there is a different "reason for the coating" than discussed in this thread. He explained that the coating was applied to simulate "dimensionally" the carbon looking build up that occurs after several thousand miles. The coating...

JP, Sorry to hear about your car. It is totally repairable though. 15 years ago I was restoring 60's Mustangs and repairing damage like that was not a big deal for a car that was worth keeping. Yours is worth keeping.

I hope to find out on Saturday if all goes well with the Friday dyno tune! I think a track in nearby Cincinnati (Tri-State) has a test and tune day.

Nice to see you there JP, I envy those 60 foot times of yours! I was also delighted with how well my 98 LSC ran. Thanks for mentioning it! I have the bug again and I am going to get a dyno-tune this Friday after a finish an install of a 120HP dry nitrous system. I am shooting for the...

not interested in a trade for seats, but thanks

The rims are still available.

Bill, I sent you two close pictures of the caps. F5 Chrome part number. Wheels are F6 part number. I don't think they have the 6 holes. The CE special cap is a new one to me. They are the original CE wheels off Deans CE though.

These wheels were originally from Dean's (FLM Fan) awesome Collector's Edition. Thought you might like to know!

Perfect Condition Chrome 10 Spokes, removed from a 40K miles 1998 Collectors Edition. Center Caps perfect too. No tires. Bought on this site about 1.5 years ago for $600. I used them for one summer only, too nice for my daily driver, so I took them off. $500 firm. I will email pictures...

+2 On the cabin air vent. I haven't seen one that doesn't leak. Easy fix with silicone after you take the wiper cowl off.

No. You can not put the converter on the flexplate/flywheel first. The converter must be in the transmission and "set in". It was described earlier, the converter must be spun by hand and pushed back until two splines are engaged. You can feel the converter set back into the transmission as...

JP Count me in too! I will PM my latest timeslips this week. Bob

I have seen a bad tensioner create a "battery light on" condition also. The belt in this example was bad too as it skipped on the alternator pulley. This condition was more evident with an increase in RPM.

Driller, I wanted to go to the SC shootout bad, but unfortunately I am traveling this weekend to NY to help my brother with his new home. If the weather is good, I will run the car Friday, Oct 3 - test and tune. Devin, I hope my car is at least as quick as it was last year (high 12's). I...

Nice work Devin. My car has been back together for couple of months now (fully forged bottom end- stock stroke) I have lots of build pictures, which are much nicer than the broken piston shots from earlier this year. I have yet to run down the quarter, but it sure feels faster NA. I have a...

I had a chance to drive a friends new Orange Challenger SRT with only 150 miles on it a couple of weeks ago. He let me get on it and it was only OK. I expected a bit more out of the car and I am sure it would be more impressive with the stability control shut off. Challengers are one of my...

Jamie, How about a passenger door (only need shell) for a 98 in bright torreador red? Thanks, Bob

Dean, I will be driving through the Akron area on Tuesday afternoon 3/18 and would like to check them out. Let me know if that works for you. Bob

Driller, It was a pleasure meeting you today at Kil-Kare Dragway I have posted my timeslip from today for your future update. Naturally Aspirated LSCforme/Bob Cotter/98 Mark VIII LSC/14.4011@97.40 http://s234.photobucket.com/albums/ee46/LSCforme/?action=view&current=scan0001.jpg
