Well I had so much fun ( ya right) unbolting my exhaust mainifold I desided to go ahead and bolt on my new head. Its got bigger valves, ported/polished and a roller cam.

I was going to save this swap for when I had my ported intakes ready but I'm going to bolt them on for now and port/polish them later when I swap injectors.

Thanks for all teh comments on my SVO and LX. These cars will always be in my thoughts. I'm pretty much a car slut much like Jay Lano but without the huge bank account. Thus why I sold the stangs, I reallized I couldn't keep them and move on to some other really cool cars/trucks. As for the pcitures on my site, Cardomain rebooted or something crazy a year or so ago and delted my pictures. I still have these pictures and will start trying to slowing reinstall them for future SVO owners.

Sorry about the inconvience.

A little of a year later things has changed. I've bought a new home and got a few different thing to ride around in.

My garage now includes a 2003 F150 Ford Harley edition 4dr truck. I got this to make my life easier to haul my son around in. It was a PITA lugging him around in teh back seat of a stang. I said to my self, if I had to get rid of my stangs, I was going to get something fun to drive. This truck isn't the fastest truck around but a bone stock 05-07 GT better watch out. This truck has run 14.84's in the qauter...stock!

As time went on, I was able to save up enough money and finnaly ick me up a new toy. Staying true to my love for fast cars with small motors I got the Ultimate in American Rice... 1987 T-type Regal! If you're not sure what this car is, just simply thik Buick Grand National without the flash. This is what I call the missing link between good old fashion American muscle cars and todays imports. Youngters now days think that the concept of fast small motorsa is new but it's actually very old. The big three did this long before most imports even had a dealership in the US. The problem was it wasn't excepted by the V8 guys and was also costly compared to most V8's. Anyways, look for me to post up a new Cardomain if they let me on this car and my Harley.

Thanks again
Ray

Hey, I haven't stopped by in a while and thought I would check out the progress only to see that you sold not only your LX, but your SVO too? I hate to hear that.

Hey man, Checked it out linked from stangnet. It's going to look nice when you get done, with all that polishing you've done. Looks like you've put in alot of time into just the polishing. Looks sweet.
