No, but she fits like a glove so it may as well be. lol


I almost took another shot in between without any covers on it just so I could tag you in it. haha
I don’t even have a leg to stand on there! Lmfaoo, I would have had a good laugh. I’m at Mecum now, I’m ready to make bad decisions.

I'm watching the Kissimmee Mecum auction now. Watching a '67 Mustang being auctioned off. Started life as a V6 and now has a 5.7L supercharged motor from a 2007 GT-500. Nice build! Sold for $93K.
I’ve got plenty of photos to share with you guys. I’m there now trying to take as many photos as possible.

Took my first L in a while working on it today. I went to swap in the G Force half shafts and part of that plan was replacing the inner bearing and hub bearings. Well, I managed to damage both inner bearings trying to install them. So I moved on to the hub bearings figuring at least I'd get those done. The first one went as smooth as it could as it took a minute to remember my tricks. The second one the inner race of the hub bearing got stuck on the hub. And of course while trying to get creative I managed to damage the hub. Fine, I'll swap the bearing and deal with the hub later. All of the insides of the bearing came apart and left the outer shell in the knuckle. I messed with it for a couple hours, but in the end the frustration was getting to me. So I shoved everything back in the garage and closed the door.

The new hubs and bearings should be here next week.

The support bearing pictured is the original passenger side bearing. I think I found the cause of the vibration.

Went back at it today with some fresh eyes and managed to get things worked out. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep the new hubs when they show up or send them back. But now I'm just waiting for the new inner bearings to get here.

Finally got the chance to take it for a test drive. I'm happy to say no more vibration at WOT. The car is almost as quiet as stock now without the bearing noise.

I also played with one of my Christmas gifts since it was a nice day.

Hell yeah buddy! Thats awesome. How did you clear your CEL? I’m deleting my EGR, and such when I get this whipple on. I’m told they won’t clear codes for emissions now?.. I heard with an HP tuner you can disable it though.

Ask Malcolm. He usually has better prices.

The stand alone doesn't use rear O2's. They're not read at all.
Oh that's cool. Maybe I will look into a stand alone at some point. I don't like all the emissions garbage on the car, all it seems to do is cause more problems.
