Nice color, Did you have to wait very long to take delivery?

What kind of tune did you buy? Not familiar with it. Still trying to decide on how to tune.

To each his own, and as stated in post #21, it just depends on your comfort level.

I started working on cars (Water pump for Grandpa's Electra 225) when I was 12, first thing my Father showed me was a beam torque wrench and a 4 inch thick Chilton service manual.

I used a crow foot and a long star key inserted into a pipe. If you keep the crow foot at 90 degrees to the torque wrench you don't have to compensate the torque setting.

I had to drop the exhaust to install the rear sway bar, I found it easier to install rear springs with the exhaust, rear sway bar, and rear rotors removed. So I just did everything at the same time, springs, exhaust, sway bars. Was easier to do the front sway bar with the front shocks and front...

I have not done it, seems it could be done if you use a Engine Support Bar to hang the motor after using wheel cribs to lift the vehicle. You may want to check the online service manual. A 72 hour pass is about $22 at https://www.motorcraftservice.com/Home/Pricing. Check section : 303-04E...
