And where is that Ford vs. The Rest forum when you need it? :rofl:

Sorry if you took my rant as an assault on you, it was not, merely an observation based on experiences.I will say this however, the problems in factory applied automotive finishes like your GM fiasco are hardly rare, or over. Other fiasco's include Chrysler's in the late 80's, GM again in the...

A little off topic and a bit of a rant but...It is better in the sense that it is easier to apply, has a higher initial gloss, and is easier to repair, but they do not have the 'longevity' of the older systems, and nor do they need it nowadays, as it's all about polishing your apples.In my...

Closer to home.I never did understand this four-door either. A disgrace to the vintage Charger muscle car badge. I don't get it.

WTF???Dude, you're talented. Nice work. YelloThumbUp

The wrap-around headlight cluster is a MAJOR improvement over previous years' 'stacked' version. The grill however, is getting a little stale.

Knock, knock......BKW, you there?Guess not. After checking his profile, he hasn't been around here since March. Unfortunate really, Bill is a major asset to the site.Try a PM Paul, he may have the email forwarding function turned on.

I think that's one of the reason he doesn't come here anymore!!!:headbang:The BIGGER crank pulley will spin the blower FASTER for a few more pounds of boost until he needs to upgrade the blower like DNF stated in his post.Jack said that's about it though on stock rods and stock blower...

Still talk to him regularly. He's pissed that his kid's Ninja can beat his. He said he gave up at 170!!His two choices are:Diet or throw $$$ at his bike. LOL!!!

Missed ya here, but got ya THERE. :DWelcome again!

I'm 99% positive that is a Utah GVW rating. I have seen other older trucks at car shows from Utah with this also, usually painted on. Although the truck was rated by Ford for only 7400 lbs. max GVW, it was not uncommon in 'farm country' to see them rated higher by their owners.
