I'm not afraid of the cops, they are there to do a job and make sure less Mustangs fly through center dividers. Haha! Last year was an absolute blast. Our GTG is worth the trip alone.

Im glad u enjoy our gtg. Last years gtg rolled into a group cruise was AWESOME.
On the cop topic... i just know some new ordinances have been put in place... so i think they will be a bit more of a headache.

Update... shipping the car out either later this week or early next! That means my ass needs to be in gear and finish up some odds and ends, throw it on the charger, and start packing it up THIS WEEK.
Shipping it out where?

DiabloFormula Racing outside of Lancaster. He is actually one of the few LT1 tuners in the area, but also specializes in LSX. I've been following his work for many years and decided to reach out after being burned. I reached out to several shops and this is the only one where he actually acted excited about working on it. Even gave me troubleshooting pointers over FB Messenger with it. He's also doing the tune in the 5th gen.
Car was taken to the shop on Sunday. Went there yesterday and spent a couple hours going over it with the shop owner. Very happy with my decision...let the games begin!
Awesome man. Please keep us posted...

Well, here are some "fun" updates. DFR has been working on the car. They confirmed that the hard start was not all in my head. I ended up reaching out to BP Automotive to get a base tune for the pcm that I purchased from Bill. He got back to me and sent it over.
The suspicion was then pointing towards a possible wiring issue. Then, the plugs on the driver side were pulled and smelled like 100 year old gas!
Cool, game plan was to siphon the tank and add fresh fuel and maybe even throw in some stabil. And of course keep changing plugs.
Well, cyl 4 was loaded up with coolant. Yep.
So now the head is coming off to check for a head gasket issue (hoping it's just that), bent rod, warped head, cracks, etc.
All I'm saying is I have a 5.3 sitting on a stand that doesn't owe me anything. I'm sick of throwing money at this car but it's too sentimental to part it out. Too many good parts installed on this thing as well (built trans, ds, rear, etc).
So now we wait and see what happens. I'd love to see how this setup performs, but at this point, I just want a reliable car that makes popcorn noises and hurts feelings. I really miss driving an fbody as well. The 355 wasn't going to be a monster by any means. Oh well, just my Damn luck.
Hey kids- don't allow drug-induced mechanics wrench on your car no matter how much you trust them.
Good to hear that you have a start on finding out what's going on. I will look forward to hearing what you find. Leave the 5.3 for a future build on something that would not be disgraced to have the swap done.
