Well I traded the talon for this, so I pretty much got it for nothing, needs re-worked but that's okay. It's sort of a project for my father inlaw and I. we want to make it into a drift car..
Found time slips in the dash of mid 12's from last year
Has 160-165 compression on all 4 cyl;
Holset hx35w turbo, tial blow off valve
LSD
Custom intake manifold

What is needed to get it in running order,
Hanger bearing, probably get a 1 peice driveshaft built
Plug wires

Plans
Install a bigger radiator
New lower temp t-stat
Water temp gauge
Re work the exhaust off the turbo because it's too close to the brake cylinder/reservoir
Mod the ebrake for better " bite "
Of course their will be a lot of research going down in the near future, once i get the driveshaft issue sorted out it should be a lot better. I'm sure their is some blow by in the motor, my father inlaw said we will run it the summer and tear it down in the winter. We are going to split the costs and since I work at napa it won't be too bad

RIP Carroll Shelby

Quote

Carroll Hall Shelby, the Texan who created the famous Shelby Cobra and uncounted other high-performance machines that turned the auto world on its ear, and made it a whole lot more fun for 50 years, died in Dallas Thursday night at age 89. He had been hospitalized for pneumonia.

Shelby, who affected the aw-shucks demeanor of the chicken farmer he once was, said, "I never made a damn dime until I started doing what I wanted."

What he wanted was, if you will, power for the people, automotively speaking.

"I love horsepower," he said more than once.

Beyond just his efforts in the small world of hot-rodding, Shelby influenced how Detroit automakers thought about high-performance, and he proved that hard work and bit of guile can make a hero.

But to achieve that, he had to jump from chicken-raising — his fowl all died of a disease one year — and into full-time auto racing, which he'd been doing on the side, in the 1950s. He was a success — at first continuing to wear the work overalls that he did as a farmer — and parlayed that reputation into a foothold as a car builder.

The litany of significant cars he created is long, running from the original 1962 AC Cobra — small British sports car with a big (for the times) Ford engine — through a sojourn at Chrysler and a stint with GM via a failed Oldsmobile-powered car, back to Ford. He was involved with development of Ford's GT 500 Mustang, the 2013 version of which is certified as the most-powerful regular-production car in the world.

His love affair put him into the orbit of industry giants of the time, as he more and more successfully showed car companies that powerful engines in lightweight cars was a viable and roadworthy combination on which he and they could make a lot of money.

He became good friends with Lee Iacocca who was president at Ford Motor when Shelby began as a car builder. The relationship continue when Iacocca moved to Chrysler.

Iacocca serendipitously happened upon on a small dinner in a Los Angeles restaurant some years back, intended as an intimate schmooze between Shelby and a journalist. Iacocca plopped down at the table and he and Shelby started telling stories.

Among them, how the two began their relationship.

Iacocca said Shelby was pestering him for money to build the original Cobra, and was so persistent that "I finally gave him the money to get him out of my office."

Much later, in 2010, Shelby was facing two challenging phenomena: Mortality, and the changing nature of the go-fast auto business. At the time, he was taking 25 pills a day, tooling around in a motorized wheelchair and talking about passing the torch at Shelby American, the company he set up to build small numbers of exciting cars, as well as parts.

CAPTION
By Ford, Wieck
He noted that extracting the most performance from an engine had become an exercise in computer programming, not tinkering. "I don't have the power to fight all the problems that I used to anymore," he said at the time.

"I've had a good run. I've built a lot of things that work and a lot of things that didn't work." He estimates that of the 165 car projects he tried over his lifetime, seven or eight turned a profit. Big enough, it seems, to keep the enterprise rolling.

His was a bold approach to car crafting that was too in-your-face for mainline car companies to conjure in-house. They let him come up with wild machines under their sponsorship, then refined them into cars the automakers could sell as high-performance halos.

Along the way he came up with a recipe for a mean bowl of chili, sufficiently infamous to spark an annual beat-this chili cookoff in Texas, and later even ventured into fashion timepieces.

He began his car building with subterfuge. Hoping to give the impression he was producing a lot of the original 1962 Cobras, he kept repainting the two he had built so car magazines would show them in a variety of colors.

And he had to fend off another giant, his eventual friend Robert E. Petersen, founder of Motor Trend and Hot Rod magazines, for the affections of a woman.

Petersen saw himself as merely taking advantage of an opportunity. Shelby recalled it as a work of infamy: "He'd tell her, 'You don't want to go around with a chicken farmer. And he'll lose (races), anyway'."

Rumors began circulating about a health problem when the affable auto man failed to appear as scheduled at the New York auto show in early April to promote his latest creations, the 950-horsepower Shelby 1000 and the 1,100-hp Shelby 1000 S/C.

Shelby published an update on his Facebook page in late April to say, in the vein of Mark Twain's "the reports of my death are greatly exaggerated," that he had been hospitalized for pneumonia, but was "resting comfortably with family and working on getting better."

This is mexico debate. Not a boxing match with a hottie that walks around to remind the audience what round it is.
Yes, this is a former mexican playmate. I know that joe biden shoots his mouth off, but I would like to see how he would react to this.
He would check her out just like the one guy did wearing glasses. "I would like to finer points of womens health"

Why would you break into a school (that you dont goto) and put a bomb threat on someones f-book page?
most of the time kids are trying to get out of school not break into it. Oh I can smell Fox8 whore news is going to eat this up like Kim kardashion slamming down a babyruth.

Four teens have been arrested in the Internet posting of a bomb threat that closed Central Catholic High School on Thursday.

All four have been charged with felony counts of inducing panic and breaking and entering. Perry Police Chief Michael Pomesky said the four broke into Central and posted the threat on a staff member’s Facebook page that had been left open on a computer.

Investigators were still looking for a motive, Pomesky said.

Pomesky said all four suspects are from the Canton area, but none are Central Catholic students. Charged were:

• Adam Fuetter, 18;

• Zack Parker, 18;

• Stephon D. Jones 18;

• and Marquis Chandler, 17.

Along with Perry police, the quick arrests were made possible through assistance from the Canton City Police Department and K-9 units, Summit County Sheriff's Department and Bomb Squad, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Perry Township Fire Department and Central Catholic’s staff and administration, Pomesky said.

No explosive devices were found at the school, although the bomb squad was called to investigate after K-9s detected two suspicious spots in a second-floor locker area.

Students were notified early Thursday via emails from the school and WHBC radio that the school would be closed all day, said the Rev. Robert W. Kaylor, school principal.

“We decided to err on the side of caution and close the school for the day,” Kaylor said. “We decided to close ... and give the police some space and some time to work through their investigation.”

The 413-student school is located on a 65-acre campus at 4824 Tuscarawas St. W..

Thursday was to be the fourth day of Advanced Placement testing, Kaylor said, adding that testing would have to be rescheduled.
