Hi all,
I found this site through a link on Hotwheels site (Insanemustangs.com). They had nothing but good thing to say about your site and the experence of the members here. I been looking around for a little while and I like the setup a lot.
My project is a 1991 lx 5.0. Still stock. Only work done to it is a auto to manual conversion. Looking to do a 5 lug swap with disc brakes in the rear next. I will make the rear end 3:55 at that time while the rear end is still out of the car. Once that is in I will get my sub frame connectors and strut tower brace. I will give it a more agressive stance and order a adjustable camber kit. This car is to be built for open track,auto cross and a bit of drag duty so she wont post up sick 1/4 ets, but she should hold her own and be fun to drive. I got like a million things I want to do to the car. In the end It will be a 347 stroker w a single turbo (street car, daliy driveable). But Im still working on the rear and suspension first. No Hp mods till that part is done.

Right on...... The beaches are awesome down that way. I spent a few years in the islands back in my younger days; was on Oahu for about a year and a half and lived in Hawaii Kai.

I love cruising that area from Hawaii Kai to Waimalano. Especally around the blow hole. Boy, it sucks to wipe out over there though. You get two choices mountain or ocean. Hehehehe.
