I work alot and I 've been saving some cash as i knew from day one that I would be driving this car forever and when I got the cash I would make it right, now is the time.

I new if I got involed with you guys I"D blow the budget so been keeping a low profile. I talked to Don Walsh this am wanting him to do the engine as per Jerry put he only does them in the late fall.

Thanks for the welcome!

Welcome Toro,

I am in the same boat.

Be sure to check out mustang modular racing, DSS racing for built options. My head hurts with all the options. It just depends on how much you want to spend.

I like you am looking to freshen up the MM.

Over the course of a year I am looking to do the following:

New Motor (undecided Aluminator NA 10:1 or MMR Big Bore Stroker 5.3) Fall 09
Reinhart Vortech Kit V2 S-Trim or T-Trim - Spring 2010
JMod
FRRP 4.10 rebuild
New OEM shocks Fall 09
New OEM Tires
New OEM Headlamps

Good luck with the build. This is site is a great resource for you. The reason I am going in the direction I am going is becuase of this site and the many post ive read!

What color is your car? I live in Renton near the Lake and I only see one other MM around here and its black.. I have a good freind who has a full service repair shop in Bellevue if you need a good mechanic.. My car has 40 k on it now. If I were you I would get a 03-04 cobra short block add trilogy and all the trans and brake mods you spoke of... check out the Emerald city Marauders form on this site...

Just get the Kit and replace what goes in time. You might be lucky and not have anything go wrong.

BTW, welcome aboard.
