What are we wrenching on this weekend?

Been a Mustang owner forever. First was a 64 1/2 gt, then a 65, 67 and my favorite was a 70’ Boss 429, an 89’ and now this 15’. The boss was only rated at 375 hp but was actually more like the 2015 coyote at 435. Any way you look at it cubic inches and horsepower is where it’s at for most us country boys
No substitution period. I love that 429!! Too bad you don't still have that one!! I added to my last post. Go check it out.....Scroll up...... :becky:

Chasing down a gremlin that makes my Honda ST-1300 lose power after it gets good and hot-- an hour down the road. This is the first time I've had all the plastic off on the right side. It took a phone consultation with the mechanic to get it off and God only knows what it's gonna take for me to get all that Tupperware back on

I may leave it off and go for a ride with the bike looking like a cadaver on the autopsy table .
Hope you get it fixed, nice looking bike
 
A Tree-fiddy.

Oh it is!! I used to be a big fan of Mustangs. Had a 75, V6. Then a 73 Mach I, 351 Cleveland. Then an 83 factory rep car. It'd get squirrelly in 3rd easy. It was a 5speed with the TRX wheels.
When I bought the SS, I was looking for a big block car. It had a 383 stroker in it then. The numbers looked like what I was looking for. So I bought it. It took me a half day how to figure out how to drive it. It had @ 475Hp then. One thing lead to another and I put the 434, 700HP in it. That took me @ 1500mi to figure out how to drive it. When I was breaking it in I was goin down the interstate @ 90MPH. I punched it. It liked to have scared me to death and I'm an adrenaline junky. It felt like all 4 wheels left the road. I ain't kiddin ya. :scared: Before with the 383, I'd spin the tires anything 40MPH or below if you punched it. The 434 will get sideways at 60MPH.
Love to see some pics of the montecarlo !
 
I had to pull the starter on my boat. Went to put it in the water this morning and the bendix stuck. This kept me from being able to pull start it as well so we just came home. I have a new starter on the way. Can't help but think God has a lesson for me on plans and disappointment.
