I have more kills in the Cobra than any other car. Just keep quiet about it. I'm just a lonely ol 13 second Mustang owner.

Hey stop if you were to do a turbo 5.4, which block would you use? Is there a difference in strength between the aluminum and iron 5.4 blocks? Ive seen vids of Ford GTs claiming 1900hp, is that with an aftermarket block or stock block? Also, whats the fastest street-legal Modular car out there?

What is the first impression you guys get from a car when you roll up on it on the street and you see A-pillar gauges?

The aluminum 5.4 is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

I would go with Iron.

^ I had speedofsound's A-pillar pod and looked sweet! Much better than the traditional looking A-pillar pods.

Not true at all...

Single pod on the steering column
A/C vent gauges

These are just the two that popped to mind.

I seem to remember you could get a pod that replaces the clock on the top of the dash for gauges on those cars.
No pillar mounted gauges on any of my cars. I hide everything.

they make cool kits for f-bodies that mount the gauges neatly in the little console between driver and passenger seat.

There isn't a clock on the dash after 98 if I remember right.
