[QUOTE="ford20, post: 15406495, member: 140884"] There are 3 or 4 E85 gas stations around here supposedly. I haven't driven around to all of them to find out if they still have E85 or what they test at RGR Sleeved Block RGR Stage 2 heads RGR Custom Grind Cams RGR lockouts Cobra Jet Intake Monoblade Throttle Body JLT Cobra Jet Intake Kooks 1 7/8ths Long Tubes Since this was the first weekend I have had time with the car I took care of a bunch of small things that needed to be done. I got the Aeroforce Interceptor all hooked up and zip tied the wires out of the way. You can tell you are driving a Ford because of all the Horsepowers you are making :clap: [IMG]https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8413/28717917594_a71494c0d2_b.jpg[/IMG] Then I went ahead and grabbed the 2013 tail lights and AM plastic bits and threw those on as well. Pulled off the Laguna Seca rear emblem along with the matte black graphic so I can start cutting out the hump for the RTR decklid. I grabbed my Dremel and ended up cutting the hump in half in order to remove it. It was pretty easy work, maybe 30 minutes in total. I ended up using some Rustoleum spray paint on the center section that got cut out to prevent the trunk lid from rusting. [IMG]https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8311/28652847314_2fb2337755_b.jpg[/IMG] Here it is all done. [IMG]https://c1.staticflickr.com/9/8482/29275693355_9d88c886be_b.jpg[/IMG] I ended up washing the car and started the process for Polish Angel.
