Looks like my car is shook down
245 mi on the clock .. 100 mi today, after solving the overheating problem. Turned out the water temp gauge was defective .. who'd a thought it ?? The SW mechanical gauge runs about 40 deg hotter than the AutoMeter electrical one I installed to get a second opinion. According to the new elec gauge, I'm running at a steady 185 deg!
Oil leaks are down to typical FE stuff, marking territory like a dog
Also thanks to JRoss' Driveway Dyno Shop for the timing tweak .. much bedder
Can't wait! Been getting stares around here, thumbs up from the Ford guys and Harleys .. neighbors walking up wanting to look .. love it!
