Ronnie_B Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 i want to do the smooth wiper cowl as well. its not really the ticket its more the hassle of having to find a friendly place to pass inspection, ive dealt with that with cats and too dark of window tint. but hey, i still may do it, hahaLol Ive been running wiperless since 1989, give me the ticket i dont care same can be said with the front plate.Besides the fact that the cowl cover is currently being smoothed so no more holes for wiper arms to even come out lol. That should baffle the local PD lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 If you are running wiperless I'm guessing that y'all don't plan on long distance driving it!?!?I'd love to go that with mine but what do y'all do if you get caught in a major poor down?!?!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk rainx is good for shaved wipers. long trips usually mean freeways which means higher speeds which means beads up and rolls off better lol.

Blackmage Posted September 22, 2014 Report Share Posted September 22, 2014 Only problem I have with that is how it fogs the windshield. When we bought our Edge it had already had the windshield treated and now when it rains it has a foggy effect on the outside. Have any of y'all had that issue?!?!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalkive seen that happen with shitty application. ive never had it personally do that on any of my cars, but rain-x ftmfw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part the car never sees rain but on the random occasions it does happen Rainx is the bomb..Even on my dailys I prefer rainx and no wipers even though there equipped with them.

95riosnake Posted October 9, 2014 Report Share Posted October 9, 2014 The GPS speedo sensor is intriguing! If you're in a deep valley, tunnel, etc. will the speedo signal disappear for a minute?

I love the idea of this trans being as tough as it is..... I am not and will never be an auto stang guy so.... Me like.They have a few different setups for the 3650 depending on projected hp car weight ect ect. This is there race prepped version. Obviously modified to work with a pushrod infront of it. The adapter lets you bolt it up to a tko bell pattern. Walt can build these to handle 1000hp. He got this to fit withput modifying the trans tunnel, shifter bezel ect. He did say it sits just under 3/8 of an inch rear of the old center wich i think i may like even more than stock location. If your really interested in the setup either give them a call and talk with walt he will build one to suit your needs as im not familiar with what type of power your looking to put down. I can tell you this you probably wont find a better guy out there. I was actually turned on to these guys from another PA mustang guy who had used them and had very good things to say. Second time ive went with my friends recommendation, the first one was going with ed curtis for my first HC package and that proved to be a very good decision so much as this set up was again speced out by Ed. I already know from dealing with walt that ive now found my drivetrain guy for life lol. what clutch are you running ? Troy the clutch is a kustom duel friction marsel spring set up speced by walt.along with a kustom stell ring pp and aluminum fly.

ttocs Posted October 20, 2014 Report Share Posted October 20, 2014 I wrapped my tunnel but jus went with a traditional aluminum/fiberglass style. Have not had it on the road to see the difference yet but I was amazed how much of a difference it made to work under the car. You don't even need a flashlight if your under it. Only part of the stifflers that confuses me is that first bar that look like its just in front of the firewall. I assume its removable or how do you get the trans through it?

Only part of the stifflers that confuses me is that first bar that look like its just in front of the firewall. I assume its removable or how do you get the trans through it?Scott the first cross bar is the kmember brace, its mounted to the frame threw the rear kmember bolts and tied to the bottom of the main hoop of the kmember.the spider brace and kmember brace are easily remkved to get the drivetrain in and out. The complete system is really sweet and should make a huge difference. Just the web bracing made a solid difference one jack three whdels off the ground. Scared the crap out of me the first time i started maneuvering the car on the stands. I looked up and realkzed the entire car was ho hovering over the jackstands lol. One think for surd theres a butt load of welding to get it all in and upside down welding is not my favorite position lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
