AutoMat’s Car Show in Hicksville New York

Took a few pics at the car show over at AutoMat’s car show. It was a good showing and a beautiful day, it was a nice change to the 23+ days of rain this month! Plus I got to take my car out for a ride.

New Blow Off Valve (BOV) Installed On the Mustang

Posted on the June 25th, 2009 under mustang by

Finally had a chance to drop off the pipe to get the flange welded on for the BOV.  I took the pipe off last night then cut off the old flange and dropped it off a local shop this morning.  Picked it up tonight and threw on the new BOV.  I still have to adjust the spring, however everything seems to work fine.  Hopefully tomorrow morning I can run over to the shop and get my o2 bung welded on for the wideband.

As you can see the old BOV was plastic and quite small…
