Well, got the car back, running great and it turned out to be a blown head gasket. While he was in there I got a breather in place of the pcv valve and breather for the oil cap, underhood fp guage, and a 70mm accufab throttle body in favor of my old 65mm bbk.

The car made almost 25 more hp and 15 lb/ft of torque since the last time it was on the dyno, going to dyno it again on saturday and see how it does with the bigger throttle body.

Thanks goes to Joe at fordspeed again for giving me a great price, and finding me that accufab at a killer price!

Anyway, here's me ... (Thanks for that one hybrid ss, )

Glad to hear it. I watched him working on it for a while...trying to pick up pointers.

Glad it's fixed and you picked up some.
