Finally got my second exhaust manifold off for some ceramic coat, Their was a pretty good size unnecessary lip/ledge on the inside constricting the flow of the outlet port little not too much but it had to go.

Keep it flowig best as possible. Now If i can figure out how to custom make an intake box to fit a better cone air filter. I will have a complete system. I may have an idea but will see.

So the rain rolled in so i guess ill just post some pictures in the mean time, & wait it out. I was shaking like a leaf when i had to cut (6) almost 5" holes for the rear lights, time to pop them out & lay some paint, next sunshine day, I also just could not resist adding strobes lights to my corner lamps in the front.

Better be careful with those, some places they are illegal unless you're a first responder or other authorized vehicle (road construction crew on a job site, state DOT, etc).

Corner white strobes were permitted on my limousine... The only time I really used them were in parked situations, loading unloading passengers, in procession, etc.

Those don't have to be, that's why they make those orange bulbs. That way the light is still the proper color even though the lens is not.
I just mentioned the strobes because if they stop you for those, they might just start looking at everything else.
Of course the strobes could be perfectly legal where you are, in which case it wouldn't matter that much.

Past few month's my shorty has been sitting not moveing, due to oil pan leak, it took weeks to to get done cause of important life events getting in the way. Droping the transsmission, pulled the flywheel, pulled radiator, alternator, A/C compressor, turbo & very carefully jacked up motor around three inches just to get oil pan out, (NOT FUN.!!). The $80 doller blue gasket i purchased, i have in previous photo had to get tossed in the trash cause my dad didnt want to follow the directions & loaded it up with gasket maker( not suppose to) O'well.
Anyway's weeks later i get it in with sealant ford uses from the factory. But jacking up the motor destroyed my power steering pressure hose, another week setback. Finally got it stared after several month's to see a fuel trail all the way around the block. Another week to sit, YAY.!!!
What happen was i replaced the stock fuel filter & cap with aftermarket & it is leaking around the gasket seal. so sometimes aftermarket is not a good thing. Just waiting in the mail for OEM one now. Part's of me want's to bang my head & the other half is enjoying it. Will all be worth it in the end, I just know it.
I am praying I make it to SkooliePalooza, it being only 2 hours away from me I hope to see all of your bright cheery faces their. ENJOY.!!!1
