Nice IMRC cooler. Much better than the holes that are so hard to get in a nice pattern.

(has vacuum-operated secondaries )

Nothing really special right now. Just a cone filter,Ford Racing wires,and some chameleon paint on the intake manifold and some silver paint in places to spruce it up.

Motor is coming out this winter for a complete rebuild,and will be adding SVT goodies and maybe some boost.

Thanks. Its my spring/summer/fall daily driver. Just dynoed a few weeks ago and it put down 203hp 265tq at the wheels. It spikes at 22psi and drops to about 19-18psi. I am looking at buying my friends big turbo set up. He put down 317whp and 299wtq on 104oct. That should make my car into a real fun car if I get it.

The big red badges are from the SVT Focus engines. Bill Jenkins and I discovered a few years ago that it fits just nicely and looks better than the older thin red ones.
And for useless knowledge, my old 98 SVT #173 had a red badge too. I think the black badges were for the first few that went to historical and execs cars, I assume.

IIRC, Ford has the first 3 in storage/showroom and the next two went on to execs.
