I'm finally home...

Hey guys, my name is Don, i'm new to this site and just so happened to have stumbled upon it.  I'm on many mustang sites and feel out of place.  For a while I thought I was the only person who was so into these t-birds/cougars, now I see I'm not the only psycho sleeper builder...lol. 

My car is an '88 'Bird that I converted to a 5.0 H.O., I have full length headers, 2.5" off-road h-pipe, DynoMax super turbo lers w/dumps, K&N air filter, Accel cap+rotor, AR133 plugs, B&M shift kit in the tired AOD, 3.08 trac-lok in an 8.8" rear from a late 80's 'stang, I also have a B&M gated shifter.  I have 10-hole LX rims with 265/50R15 meats in the rear and 225/60R15's up front.  I will soon be installing a pair of Comp. Eng. 3-way adjustable drag shocks.  Hopefully I can change to Mac full length headers and X-pipe soon and get my GT-40 heads and fuel pump/regulator in. 

I look forward to being a long time member,
Don

I have some py pics on my site... http://quick88tbird.tripod.com/

That was before the T/C hood and 10-hole rims...gotta love the turbines and hubcab combo.  :yuck:
I do have some more recent ones, but they're such poor quality it's disgraceful.

Welcome to the board!  I live in Philly. Let me know if you ever want to meet up somewhere to swap Ford stories.
