Definitely a list of what to do to your Mach 1 if you plan to use it as a daily driver and are not super concerned with stock"ness". Good recommendations.

I caught the mention of a roller camshaft at the end of the article. I've always thought it would be cool to run a roller cam. But sheesh, it's $1,000 for a roller cam setup. That's a lot of scratch just to be cool.
I know roller cams can run a much more aggressive grind than a flat tappet cam. But how much does that translate into real world difference? Does anyone know what to expect from a roller cam vs. a high performance flat tappet cam?

I installed the complete Global West suspension with weld in subframe connectors and my car handles like a slot car. I also found some front spring perches with full needle bearings and love those too.

Good feedback! I've heard that Global is a good product.

Someone recently asked either about Global West or Total Control. Anyway it is really good to have feedback and for it to be so positive. I wish I was ready for mine!
