Yetti-no, didnt get the sunroof. really wanted one bad, but didnt get it. still could get it put in (supposedly we have one of the best installers here in Baton Rouge), but i'll wait till i get all the other stuff I want done.

KenP-I will go take some new pics as soon as the weather lets up here in the dirty south. Been raining everyday down here, the one i am putting up was taken the day I got it back in november.

Yep, my favorite Mustangs are the 1971-73s. They have an engine bay that can handle any size Ford motor, and the suspension and brakes are much stronger than any other models.

I know what you mean about the money. At the time, I was making $3.10/hr. I put $3K in the 429CJ. Boss parts were not even an option for me. Way to much $$$.

Those CJ heads were amazing. The intake ports were HUGE. Even Ford called them "sewer pipes".

In 1980, the car was a monster. New Corvettes came from the factory with less than 200hp. It was just too easy. The car would run 60 in 1st, 120 in 2nd, and God knows how fast in drive. At 155 the front end started to "float".

What a ride!

Yetti, were you standing 10 or 15 feet in front of your H2?

Is your nickname Hoss?

Leg room seems to be the last problem, but I'm right at the top for headroom. I do know you lose about a inch of headroom because of the sunroof.

Why don't you go finish fluffing the line of fat sweaty "clients" outside your mom's stall?

Do you use the vehicle for work - if so I am assuming that you are either a circus stilt walker or an Elvis impressionist - lose the stilts or the platform shoes and you will be fine.
I am 6'4" - 03 H2 and heaps of room, though I did not get the sunroof - it did feel cramped with it in.

I'm 6'1 and have less than a 1/2 inch between my knees and the front dash of my 2003 H2. I've called the dealer and he said they didn't have a fix to move the seat further back. I wanted to purchase new rails, or extended rails to accommodate my legs. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem? I was in a new Nissan Altima yesterday and my legs were fully extended when the seat was all the way back. Again, I'm only 6'1". Others must have the same problem.

I'm a big guy and have no problems with leg room in my '03. Are you sure about your claim that the '04 goes back 3 inches further?

Yetti,

In 1980 I built a 429 Cobra-Jet and installed it in a 1973 Mach 1 Mustang. That motor was absolutely unbelievable!
