Building a Boosted Duratec
#57
So the past few days I have been working on the here and there. Nothing serious but enough to upset me at moments lol

I disconnected the Calipers from the Knuckles and started the removal of the front control arms... The struts were easy but the bolt that holds the knuckle to the control arm stripped on me for both sides. Now I have to hammer them out...

I ordered a shift knob for the car and currently in CFM's shopping cart ordering
2.3L FlyWheel Bolts
CFM Heavy Duty Clutch Kit
OEM Ford Head Gasket
2x SVT Fog lights

If you notice I am ordering a gasket is because I forgot to get one before... I started to take the head out of the plastic wrap then paint on the green again after it chipped off on the cleaning process from the machine shop and was like wtf... were is the gasket....
That's all on hold for now again.

I was researching for some internals on the MTX-75 and I'm going with a complete set of parts from MFactory.

Hardened Gear Set (3rd,4th,5th)
Helical LSD
Final Drive Kit 4.7XX ratio

Also I was just at Jamie's place today grabbing my MTX-75 + parts from him and took a good peak around his setup to figure out how to install the pieces of the puzzle.

The pictures are taking too long to load up so another day I will update them.
