What did you do for your Terminator today?

Clutch broke in yet???

I kinda considered it broke in right before I put it away last fall for storage. I hit 450 city miles and only did one 3rd gear pull.

Centerforce says 450-500. I'm around 490 now but probably have 20 miles on the highway. Once this 91 gas is out of the tank I'm filling up with some liquid gold and letting her rip!

Clutch feels great so far.

That clutch is easily broke in by now.....get that junky 91 out and let her rip on the gold! Preferably in 4th gear on top of some rollers! Go slay that heart breaker dyno.....bet their jaws drop "gees...I was figuring 650 tops...." Lol

Hahaha!

I definitely need to get that crap out! The wife will be done with work soon. Now the plan is taking her for a cruise, then we'll swap cars and pick up the notch. I have less than half a tank in there. So I'll put what's in the cobra in the notch.

I'm on nights, so tonight I probably start changing motor mounts and transmission mount in the foxbody. Debating on swapping out injector harness as well.

Hopefully, I can get it done tonight or tomorrow. Then the cobra comes back home. Tomorrow is the last nice day, at least for my days off. I don't work until Friday night.

I washed it again. As I rinsed...I said to myself...this stay at home thing has its advantages...but I say in general ....FU China. FU Communist government, not the people.

I drove it to work today. Yes, I know it's not a Terminator, but it is a 2003, a new edge and has a supercharger. So, close enough LOL.

Hey, at least I washed it...…. I should get "some" credit for that LOL.



After I got my Roush inspected I drove home and almost hit a mile stone...…

You washed the Roush and not the 2 Terminators that you own???

LOL, I washed the Vert and the Roush because they normally sit in the car port under a car cover. My coupe sits in my garage and I have easy access to it. So, it is next on the wash rotation list …...

I finished getting the blower installed last week then work got in the way of my progress. Now since I have off for a couple days I’ll be starting on my fuel system today. The stuff from Fore is top notch! For years I’ve heard so much praise on svt towards their products, now I know why. I went with the L3 system.

pics of the new cobra! shop is refreshing it up new boost controller, plugs, coil packs, re dyno tuning
shes almost ready to rip

Got the last of the steering wheel play out, the pinch bolt on the MM solid steering shaft just needed to be tightened more.

Next is an MGW shifter to replace the old sloppy B&M, new header gaskets to replace the leaking metal stockers, 3" resonators to replace the gutted cats, a good alignment, then return to tuner and try to hit 900+.

Well I put the RPM belt on. The green hd belt was 74.5" and this one is stock 75.1". And I took about 1/2" less tension off this one. Baby steps, lol.

Initial start up. Zero squeaks and chirps that my hd belt would create on cold start up.

Tomorrow forecast, 3-5" of snow.....

Is the rpm belt black? Thats reason enough for me to change!

Yes sir. I'll drive around normal with it for awhile. See how it goes. I'm not sure how many have used this belt with a carbonite coated pulley.

The more I get bored with all this stuff going on lately, I'll probably put the lower on.

I need ethanol bad, still have a damn near full tank of 91 gas from storage.

Well damn, I'll have to look into those. Even my wife makes fun of the big green belt, ha

Took mine out for a drive yesterday.

Ya it's black....but has some cool graphics on it. And dust is near non-existent. Well, at least in my case with the RR upper. Not sure how they'll react with griptec or other coating

Knocked the rust off the rotors today. And it likes the new plugs.

How do you like the MM shaft.
I have one going in my car while it's in the shop. Any real bad NVH?

Where can these RPM beltes be purchased? Not that i'll need 1 anytime soon i just replaced mine with a gates green belt when i did the pulley/E85 swap.
