Well I got home and seen my package from IPD sitting there.. I said what the heck and decided to START the timing belt. Well 3 hours later I was done and pulling it out of the drive way.. Wasn't as hard as I thought..I fabbed a tool to remove the timing pulley tension out with the T45 and used a trick with 3 quarters to get the Serp belt off...... Thanks for all the help. For the last 10 days I have been driving my Saleen Mustang and damm I forgot how bad the gas was on that car...

I will only go as high as a 3.27 in mine still want the gas milage.
At 90 MPH taching only 2000-2200 RPM.
Still have the 85MPH speedo so don't know top speed but the fastest I ever took it was 3/4 throttle in 4th gear and it felt like if it had wings it would have taken flight!!
It is sitting in the Garage at the moment awaiting a transplant Cam.
Here is a pic of it.
