    B head porting

    Where are you located? I have a pair of AG cast C heads off a 03 Marauder I'd sell cheap as I don't need them. Came off a running and driving car.

    Fab Fords 2024

    A lot of moving pieces in the puzzle. I'm driving up to the Buffalo area and loading my car on a 18ft sure-trac tilt frame car trailer (along with doing a one way rental with a F150). Towing the car out to CA because a friend whom we're staying with in the inland empire is buying the trailer off...

    Anyone going this year? I'm trekking out from PA, towing the Mustang out there. Didn't know if I should keep an eye out for some SVTP members https://www.fabulousfordsforever.com/

    Say it isn't so!

    Discount Tire bought out Tire Rack a year ago I believe. I guess the plan is to do all online ordering via tire rack and physical locations are just going to be discount tire?

    My neighbor is actually buying my XLT bronco for his 16yr old son as a first car. Told them I'd be ready to sell it in May once I bring my old truck home.

    Roof Paint Fade

    The car wash rainbow spooge won't provide long term UV protection. If I were in your shoes, I would claybar, compound, polish, then ceramic coat it. It should keep it from getting any worse for a while. Just make sure you keep up on it or it'll all fade out again and keep getting worse. When...

    Caprice Classic vs Crown Victoria

    This is kind of a comical take considering the Marauder ran circles around the SS in the handling dept and I remember some people back when the cars were new complained the suspension rode too stiff. Yes things could have obviously been better, in fact the Marauder team had a whole roadmap of...

    Car Show Etiquette

    It doesn't help that they all get the same like 5 exhaust setups, usually all as loud as possible, because as we know, volume = performance. Borla ATAK and Corsa extreme along with the Roush axlebacks are like the defacto choice. Two step bouncing at 8am is a thing at my local C&C as well as...

    S650 vs C7

    The challenger design came out back when Ford was still selling the 3V S197 and the 6th gen Camaro was so successful sales wise that they stopped building the Camaro for a second time. Right? This race could have been predicted just by reading wikipedia.

    Car Show Etiquette

    I haven't been to a "winga-dinga" type car show in many many years. I generally only do Carlisle and one C&C event anymore, Caffeine & Carburetors in New Canaan CT. Our local C&C has sucked for years, I haven't attended since 2019. At the things I attend I haven't had any issues with spectators...

    Came a day earliy, Apex VS-5RS 19x10 forged wheels for the Mustang. I'm due for new tires and was never super crazy about the heavy all black factory perf pack wheels. These weigh about 14lbs a wheel, stock ones are like 30-33 a wheel not counting tires.

    Roadkill

    still exists, I stopped paying for MTOD when they using the HotRod magazine social media page to advertise the Oprah Winfrey "Wyte pepo r awful" power hour after the george floyd ordeal. I've torrented what episodes I can find but I don't have a complete libaray. MTOD is going away anyway, the...

    Malinois Scaling 20 Foot Wall.....

    this perfectly demonstrates why my friends 2yr Malanois / Shepherd mix was able to springboard over his 7ft tall fence to chase after a stray cat.

    Came By This Cheap.... What is It?

    post a pic of the top so I can see the top of the intake manifold the long block is all the same either way, they used the same heads / cams / rotating assy / block between the aviator, mach 1 (except for the mach 1 manual which had the forged 8 bolt crank) and aviator

    Came By This Cheap.... What is It?

    That is an aviator motor and absolutely NOT a panther frame, not a Marauder frame. That is a truck frame, the wheels remind me of an early expedition. Someone stuck an aviator motor on a truck frame. The aviator had a totally different intake from the Mach 1 and Marauder (M1/Marauder were a...

    1995 Ford GT90 Concept Car Found

    I did not expect to see the Paul's High Performance Marauder in this video, I haven't heard much about that car since high school. It had a full Terminator engine swap back in the early-mid 00's, I can't remember exactly what year the car was built but well before I ever owned mine. edit: went...

    Parts That You Want Made

    Boy have I got news for you guys MFP in Australia has designed exactly that, they're starting up production on billet intake manifolds for C head 4.6's and 5.4's. It's not using a flipped lid style like new cars, but at least it has the separately mounted GT500 IC so pulling the...

    Let's see those Latest Purchases!

    I sure do, the "new truck" made me regret ever getting rid of my old one. I sold it with a blown brake line and leaking gas tank, that's all since been replaced as well as new O2 sensors so it's completely drivable. It's only gone 3000 miles since I sold it, not much has changed aside for the...

    New Plates............

    It's stamped? It still has the squares for the registration stickers they stopped using in like 2005? I didn't realize they were still stamping any plates these days, figured even the specialty ones would have been the flat printed ones.
