Default New 5.0 Guy

Hey just joined up after hearing about the forum around school and at the tracks. figured i should introduce myself as a first post on the board.

My name is PJ. i'm 16 and i drive a '91 5.0 GT five speed that i've waited my whole life for. i've got alot of time money and work in this car, and im pretty proud of it. everything that gets done to it i do myself. some of you guys may have seen me rolling around in it, spend alot of time anywhere from largo to palm harbor.

some pics of the beater, doing some touch up paint and new front early next month:









i rebuilt the motor shortblock up when i got it, have done some driveline work and also some suspension work.

mods:
E303 cam, fresh 'worked' stock heads, ported Typhoon upper/lower, BBK CAI, BBK shorties, O/R H, Dumped Flows, 3:73s, Tremec 3550, Weld Draglites, eibach pro kit, lakewood 50/50 rears, No AC, Smog deleted, Aluminum Rad., Tri-Axe shifter, No rear seat, 3R racing front seats, flex fan, alot of weight reduction, and alot of other little things i dont think off of the top of my head...
