<p>Hi can you provide some feedback on where you would recommend placing jack stands on the front end? I'm pulling an engine and transmission out of my parts car and I can't find a definitive clear answer on the best place to set the jack stands under the frame.</p>

<p>Kim, Good job!</p>
<p>Tony, there is a stretch of toll road between Austin & San Antonio TX that is 85MPH. I remember when it 1st opened (Oct 2012) People were hitting wild pigs crossing the toll road at night. They fixed that problem pretty quickly. I haven't heard of any reports since then.</p>
<p>Jason, did you guys take the toll road anywhere when you were here for the GN?…</p>

<p>Took the car for an extended ride this afternoon. Hit all speeds up to 80, no problems, no shake, no vibrations.</p>
<p>ran at 70 for extended periods with no apparent problems...I think i like driving it at 68. it just feels like a good speed, at least on a two lane highway,, interstate may be more 70 to 75, but for now,, i like 65 to 68,</p>
<p>car does seems to ride heavier, more stable at this time after the rear arm change. no sway, so at this point, for me, it was a worthy change,…</p>

<p>Oh, yeah , i hv read many. I dnt understand what you said in the injector post, but i did read what ? near 17 mpg? Now that i can understand, the basics. . Like you, i just wsnt it to ride best it can, within my mechanical skillset and budget. Btw, hv ypu finally gotten that injector thing fine tuned for normal folk consumtion, or will it be, on these older units, a constant exercise of tuning and re tuning </p>

<p>My reality is 70, if i can go 70 at will on hiway, im just fine. The 73 eldo conv does just great at 70. I dnt usually need to go any faster in these cars as im just cruisn, stylin. And or profiling, so its seen, not heard, i figured if i am going so fast, and to quote an old hot rod lincoln song. Telephine post look like a picket fence,,,,then no one can see me, so whats the point. Thats my take and im stickin to it.</p>
