Dynoing the car at Mr. Self Destructs- 80 dollars
Cost of getting to Mr. Self Destructs- 1/8 tank of gas
Meeting some of the TR guys- Some lude and funny ass jokes
Watching from my rear view as my clutch explodes out of my car at 90mph along roosevelt onramp- Priceless :sadwavey:

Lessoned learned- Dont rely on florida highway patrol to get you a tow truck or youll be waiting along the highway for hours.

So if anyone wants a free clutch. You can find mine along the exit 16 onramp. Practically brand new.

Im sure my face was that of utter disgust man. Ill give you a call tomorrow ken to tell you whats not damaged under there...
I dont know what would be better... piece of shrap metal going through the oil pan or busting the rear main seal...
1_fast_stang- Ill buy it back for 2 bucks. That way i can go throw the disk through the window of who ever designed that clutch.
Epicman- John gave me an email and told me where it was at right after you posted. But we still had problems finding it. Stopped and asked some guys at a mustang shop for directions. Man they gave me the dirtest looks and attitude. They must have gotten there asses kicked way to many times by camaros or something.
Hey Pollo who were you among the group You were in there with Taylor when we first pulled in right?
I got 318 wrhp and 327 ft lbs of torque. Running a tad lean. So with a little more tuning should be good for mid 320s wrhp and alittle over 330s in torque.
It was weird being outside the car and hearing it rev that high (6300rpms). Red line use to be at 5700 rpms. So another 600 rpms is just that much longer i stay in the power band without having to shift.
My SS hood and rims/tires are just going to have to sit around until the clutch gets fixed... not sure if im going to do it myself or pay someone.... ill have to take a look and see...
