Any shop that works on Mustangs or any Ford vehicles can do it. Check local Mustang clubs for referrals.

That'll save a drive.

If that plan doesn't work out, lmk.

Also lmk if you need a hand with a tune for the new gear.

Dennis Francis automotive it's scotia NY. They do a lot of the work on triple threats race cars and my gears have not made a peep since they installed them 2 years ago.

I'll be sure to give him a buzz. How was the dollar amount?

I thought it was very fair. Also won't hurt to mention the marauder and this website.

I have also done exhaust work and a torque converter install with them on separate occasions and have no complaints. I trust and respect them. Also worth the drive cuz you might get to see one if not both of joes race marauders!

Would love to but car is in storage. I drop by daily just to peel the cover off it and sit in it. Just got the car in November of 15 and drove it back from Virginia where I bought it then right into storage she went. It drove sooooo sweet back to NY. Just as smooth as can be. Had a 05 Crown Vic lx Sport. Always wanted a Marauder since they came out.
