    Ha! What I meant was making a mental note of the RPM then doing the calculation later in the safety of your own home. LOL

    Out of curiosity, are you guys going by what the speedo was showing, or using the revs displayed and then figuring it out using the formula that includes gear ratio and tire size?

    Yup, I've met Rob through one of the local Mustang clubs, he's about 1/2 hr away from me. Knew he was an SVO guy, but didn't realize how hardcore till we met in person and chatted.

    Not at the current ride height, but it may when lowered. The rears are 17x9" at +38, pretty much the same as the Saleen SA10 cars used. That's the other thing I'll ask the body shop guy to do, is...

    Wouldn't they be 1/4" longer per side? I thought that SVO was 1-1/4" per side longer than standard Fox Mustang, 94-98 Mustang was 3/4" longer than Fox, and 99-04 was 3/4" longer again.


    cheers...

    I'd be interested if the pricing isn't exorbitant. My 84 has a generic aftermarket muffler, and some damage to the tip.


    thanks,
