Thanks for all the info. I am planning on putting a bigger Fuel pump in so yeah that will be takin care of.

If I can get a rotunda tool kit and some really good info on the upper 60K I will be doing the valve lash soon so no biggie their. Rod bearings most definatley 129,000 miles and never been changed UGGHHHH. In the 6 months that I have owned it 4 months of driving it if that I have done rebuilt tranny from 93 from ford (qaulity renewal) as well as a torque converter from ford, water pump, like new radiator, timing belt, 02 sensors, front and rear main seals, spark plugs, wires. The rest of this winter rear brakes, new rear struts, and new rear wheel bearings. Right now I am currently fixing the rust on the rear quarter Ill post pics cuz its my first time ever doing body work and its turning out really good I think. Pretty much saying the car will be mechanically sound as well as it will look good by the time spring comes along. Gotta get my DL back soon though but its definatley nice because the SHO is just a money pit over winter.

and be lucky that the 100 shot of nitrous didnt blow the welds on the intake..... now me and the master mechanic have to tear apart the block and replace the piston rings u fried..... and u almost had me? u never had me... u never had your car.

Who are you talking to?

And to the OP, don't street race - it's noob and moronic to the max. ONLY 130 MPH in an ATX car you bought for $260?!? If you ever come to Virginia please warn me first.

exactly! I dont speed in town or near anything I do it all on backroads, sometimes though I do it on the freeway at like 2 in the AM and get away with it I make one pass south and one pass north no cops ever!! I wonder where they all are???? Oh and to Rubix I have done alot of work to my $260 car its a 94 with 129K on it. I trust my car so dont worry about it and when I do drive to virginia we will pass eachother drivin down the road and have our eyes all over eachothers SHO and you know it.
