BBR's 83GT - 552 BBF version 3.0 (at least)

...but you might go faster!

...but you might go faster!

might have a 48 mph headwind too.

[BBR]

Or a 48 mph crosswind.... looks like it will be rainy, so they probably won't even be open anyway.

[squirrel]

Oh well

What about May 11th? Doesn't it get nice for that day?

[BBR]

Nice! Ford gray HEI cap. Thanks Oreilly.

[Scott Liggett]

I hate that color. It's why I spent a small fortune on a MSD cap. Is battleship gray the original color of Ford's dist caps?

[squirrel]

yup, it makes an HEI look right at home in an 80s ford

[Beagle]

I think the original Ford color has some dirt color thrown into the paint to disguise it. Oreilly's helping hide a BBF... lmao. Uh, yeah. It's stock. Kinda. The 2" primary pipes were an option that year.

[Scott Liggett]

I say that because at one time I could get the cheapy cap with aluminum terminals in black or red, but all the stores near me had the good ones with brass terminals in that gray. Pissed me off.

[BBR]

I really wish I had painted the block gray. I did that on the Ranger and it looked great. My gray paint was fubar at the time and I had blue on the shelf, so I just painted it blue.

[SuperBuickGuy]

I agree with Squirrel - that cap is the perfect disguise; now no one will know that isn't a stock, BBF Mustang.... clever, James, very clever.

[BBR]

Maybe that's why it was idling rougher than usual.... Rotor button contact is completely gone and the rotor contact was gnawing into the plastic.

Wonder how long it's been like that?

[SuperBuickGuy]

So what you're saying is you could have been in the 9s?

[BBR]

No, but maybe I could have gotten 12mpg!

I put the new cap and a fresh set of plugs in it today. Just need to change the oil and she'll be ready for a trip to the track.
