The seller states the short block is fresh and is all forged but does not list any parts in it....he does list every part down to a new carpet otherwise. You need to get a build sheet on the short block and call the builder....plus if its built why only 7 psi. I would think he would be running at least 12psi.

I feel the same way Lou, that is why I have requested the previous owners contact information becuase the current seller had purchased the car the way it is. I have also requested the builders contact information. The shop that did the work is in NY called Mustang Magic. Anyone know anything about this shop?

Another thing that caught my eye is that there are Mac 1 3/4" headers on the car, with a turbo kit, dont you have to have headers that come with the kit?? Someone elighten me.

Mustang Magic built the Terminator in the Snakebite vid that went around a couple years ago. The guy who bought my car lives around there and told me they do some nice work.

Mustang Magic "Joe" does good work.....the headers are a little big for the power level, unless the heads are port matched....PS I fixed all of your miss spelled words in the quote college boy:poke:

Anyone know much about leak down tests? A car I was looking at had a leak down test done and I was told that most of the numbers being in the mid 90% range and one being at 88%. Can someone explain?

Meaning that leakage was around 5-12%
