Well Dad got bored and installed the rear. He said I got some clearances issues I guess, I haven't seen it yet. As for the the gt, my car(00 SS)with 2.2 60's and 1.0 reaction times at phoenix city ran 8.3 at 84mph and I was thourghly pissed due to all the suspension crap. I drove my buddies stock ta and cut better 60's right around 1.90 if I remember correctly been a few years. I imagine there's been a slew of mustangs popping up since the troops are back. Only 55 days or so left idaho.

Come on up. We got room for yall.
And as for the SS, not sure yet. My dumbass didnt read the part on there about "IT HAS TO BE FROM A DEALER" Anybody got a hook up at a dealer around Columbus that could LIE. Capital One needs dealer info.
Payments would of been $218 a month for a $9500 loan.
Called a place in town and they said it would $325. WTF.
Still working on it.
