    More like what isn't wrong with it. It's deformed, dents everywhere, the support on the underside has almost completely separated from the top part of the hood. Plus it's rusting everywhere, I need a new hood. It would be easier for me to start with a better hood than to try to fix the problems with this one.

      Well for those of you who haven't checked in the 5.0/5.8 Tech forum, last Thursday, the car developed a knock of sorts. Here's the linky for those who are interested...

      Turned out to be the catalytic converters. I replaced them, so now everything on the exhaust is new. I will be taking pics of the exhaust, and the sway bars while I have it on the lift tomorrow putting the finishing touches on the cats.

        I installed the Police Speedometer in Vicky today. Man it's awesome! I added the holes for the check oil and low fuel. I need to remove the cluster again because some of the bulbs in there aren't any good (passenger turn signal warning, high beam warning)

                It's not exact, but it's pretty close. Plastic is actually white when you cut into it, so I covered the white with black sharpie. Lights light up and everything is all good.

                    :stfu2: If you'd like to see good pics, you could donate a nice camera to the cause. I'll wait till I see Phil next time he's got a better camera.
