Got mine by Pony Express yesterday in Oklahoma. Horses rested overnight and headed out this morning!

Hopefully headed for Arkansas next!

Did anyone receive an email that their copy was about to be shipped prior to receiving it as was noted on your receipt when the order was placed?

Still waiting on mine so can't speak from personal experience, but no one I know that has received one got the heads up email.

I attempted to up load pix of my car, but didn't receive any confirmation. Is there any way to know for sure that the pix were received by whoever is supposed to receive them?

Square body Chevy/GMC truck.

My '69 Ford shop manual, page 08-08-04, shows "BF-32" for all applications of the 351-4V engine. My '69 Cougar owner's manual also shows "BF-32" for the 351-4V. But the '69 Shelby owner's manual shows "BF-42" for the GT350. Typo, or did Shelby really spec a different plug for the GT350? Seems unlikely, but I'm sure someone will enlighten me if that's the case.

If it was a typo then it was one to the advantage of the owner given how frequently the BF 32 fouled out compared to the BF42 in city stop and go traffic. They are retaliative easy to change on a smallblock but I hated to frequently change those hard to get to plugs on my GT500 back in the day when it was daily transportation.

An advantage unless the hotter plug causes ping and detonation. The avoidance of which being, to the best of my knowledge, why Ford typically specified the cooler running BF-32 in high-compression engines in the first place.

Walker turbo mufflers don't drone like flowmasters and sound great.

I'm a fan of Walker turbo mufflers, but haven't been able to find one for a transverse mounting application. Do you have a link or part number?

Good video summary of the event, for those that couldn't be there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u45nm6l_YYY&t=301s&ab_channel=REVanEvan

90% sure that would be the 2 & 5/8" C8ZE-D marked spacer.

The SAAC National (SAAC 47) and Mid-America overlap -

June 16-18, SAAC-47 @ Indianapolis Motor Speedway, THE National Shelby Convention SAAC-47 National Convention – Indianapolis Motor Speedway

Yes, given 52 possible weekends to work with, the great minds at SAAC decided that creating a scheduling conflict with Mid-America was the best possible choice.

In Tulsa on the third weekend of June, same as every year.

What year/transmission/vehicle is that for? It's considerably different than the original gear reducer on my '70 toploader Cougar.

  While at MCACN I noticed the display for this show.  This was about 50 feet away from the Hertz display.  The event will be at the M1 Concourse, 1 Concourse Dr, Pontiac MI, 48341.
     What drew me was the featured make: Shelby Automobiles.
   So, in chatting with the two representative there, they wanted every year and type of Shelbys, Cobras, Ford GTs. I mostly talked with David Sherman.
   I am not a representative of this event.

My Shelby is staying home, but I'll have an SCJ Cougar Eliminator in the Class of '70 display. Seems like they have a great show lined up this year. Hertz exhibit should be a highlight.
