Sweet car. The rims look great, and I'm not a big fan of chrome, but  they look good. Any plans on lowering?

Already tried cleaning them, the reflective material on inner housing isnt any good so they dont look bright. Got another set of lights coming..

Kept the exporer cam in motor.  Debated on swapping stock mustang cam, but ended up keeping explorer cam. I have an 8.8 with 3.73's waiting to swap in, when I get time. And figured since the explorers were heavy and ran 3.73's, the combo should work good in the bird.

Here is a quick vid I took today..  Does have small exhaust leak at the collector. After the holidays, taking it to a buddies shop so I can put it on a lift and mess with exhaust.

You might lose some top end with the Explorer cam but you'll have a bunch of low end torque.
