    Finally got the fuel line issue taken care of and have to say that AED's customer service is far better than most of the suppliers I buy from. Now just need to get some line from the filter to the regulator.......................:yahoo:

    Called JC Whitney back to see if my other parts had shipped and the gentleman basically said I got what I ordered and that they weren't going to send out the other parts. I told him I already spoke to someone and that it was verified by a third party(on their part) that they needed to send me another set. He then offered me a partial refund and I said no I want the parts you owe me. After asking to speak with his superviser twice, he then put me on hold and came back and said that his superviser said ok and they will send them out to me. Later on I received an email with a tracking #.:thumbs2:

    Pulled more stuff off of the Mustang in preperation to put on Maverick. Little bummed about letting the Mustang go, so I pulled the license plate, and the badging to remember it ;( lol

    Great car, just bad luck with accidents.

    Need to finish up welding a patch panel on the firewall of the Maverick. Then need to get the motor mounts and stuff needed for the maverick.


    What all do I need to put the 302 in the maverick? Just motor mounts... from napa or do I need stock maverick parts?
