You don't need a fuel pump. My cars fuel pump broke down a year and a half ago. I just mounted the fuel tank on top of the roof, no fuel pump needed :DL

That is rather basic research.Real research would be the academic kind like a paper I assume they still back you write a paper in 11th and 12th grade or in college.For example I wrote a paper about strategy during the Vietnam War for a college course I took in the military.

Also I thought you needed a rifle er .44 to protect your tools in the barn from deadly pranksters so a high performance fuel pump is more vital to you than protecting your tools from thieves?What happens if they steal your tools and you dont have the .44 only the fuel pump?Maybe they know you from school and are planning to dash your plans of working on cars. Why not just buy a lock for your tool box(s) and keep them inside your house where they are going to be much more secure?You should also buy some motion sensing lighs and put those around the out side of the barn also why dont you have a few dogs that live with your horses? I have a mixed Lab and something and an Australian Sheppard that live with our horses those dogs never really leave the 2 acre area around my barn/stable and they discourage other animals as well as people from going into their turf.

I have money - plenty of it.

Either way I never said I was doing major research today - just minor stuff. I'm going with a GT500 pump and Kenne Bell BAP. The Roush R2300 supercharger demands the fuel system upgrade.

It sounds to me seeing as you are only 17 and supposedly have horses "in your name" and a Mustang that has a V-6 yet puts down 400 something hp(you claimed that in some post) that your parents have money and give it to you because there is no way a 17 year old person is going to make that amount of money by working the kinds of jobs available on top of that you have all the spare time to "do research" some of what you post is very hard to believe that is why you might notice others poking fun at your posts so often.

Trust me on this my folks gave me only food,room and board when I was in school.I wanted a car I had to work to get it not one penny was going to come from or dad.So I had to work pretty damn hard to be able to save up the money just to get a $1,000.00 car to drive in 10th,11th,and 12th grade(that is in 93 dollars mind you).There is no way that you can afford to feed several horses and pay for the vet bills and have a majorly supped up Mustang.Like Tribesman has said several times you dont seem very good at math and your claims show this.My wife and I own four horses and keep two more for others I know what it costs to keep livestock.


You do know that a Roush R2300 supercharger costs $5899.99 dollars you'd also need to to alot more to your engine than just swap out the fuel pump alot like sawp out your V6 for a V8 in my 5 minutes of searching I found that this package is only for a 2011-2012 5.0: http://www.roushperformance.com/must...ger-kits.shtml

You do know that a Roush R2300 supercharger costs $5899.99 dollars.The only way you can afford such things at your age is by being a drug dealer or by getting the money from your parents.

I am not trying to be harsh on you Anthony you seem like a pretty good person and you do seem to enjoy chatting with people on subsim.

Just try being yourself instead of what you think sounds impressive to other subsim members.You yourself admitted in this very thread that you "sort of" where posting some times just to get Captain due to post count rank.Try the four word story thread you can get tons of posts in that thread and it is hilarious I am surprised that more guys dont post in that thread just follow the rule which is that you can not post and then post immediately after(someone else has to post after you before you can again.) http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/show...62766&page=972

I know exactly how much my project will cost. I'm ditching the 6 at the end of September/October for a GT manual base package.

Want to know how I got the money for it? Inheritance. Recently. I'm building the car.

And why the bloody hell are people still posting on this - now my longest thread ever???

If that were true your post count would have stopped at 42.

No Steve, for that he would had to have discovered the answer to life, universe and everything. He just found the meaning of life.

The problem there Stealhead is that he has posted so much that is simply bull (often ridiculously obvious bull) that it is hard to believe anything he posts.

They always are Steven, like this one for example:
Congrats on 500 posts! :DL:woot:

On-topic:

I probably wouldn't go for much more than a .38 for defense. I'm not a very big guy so I would imagine that a magnum would be too cumbersome for me. Truth be told I'm not sure what I would do under the circumstances where I would need one. Would I hesitate? Where would the weapon end up then?

For long arms I would recommend a big gnarly stick. Maple and ash are good for that, or even a small cocobola club if you don't mind burning up some carbide. But any ol' stick should do long as it isn't too dry. :D

EDIT:

Alternatively, you could always ask Frau K really nicely if she could keep an eye on the place while you sleep:
