Pain Is Weakness Leaving the Body

About Me




"What we face may look insurmountable. But I learned something from all those years of training and competing. I learned something from all those sets and reps when I didn't think I could lift another ounce of weight. What I learned is that we are always stronger than we know."
-Arnold Schwarzenegger
Hows it going? My name is Dana and i am a STRAIGHT male. i am 6'2" and i weight 206lbs. I am honest, very loyal and caring. I am also extremely opinionated in what i believe is right and wrong. I am also very conservative, not political conservative but i don't waste anything conservative.
I have been living in Grass Valley for 2 years now. I moved here from the Bay Area and i love this area. I don't ever wanna live in a suburban area near a big city again, i love the country way better.
My first hobby ever was working on cars and trucks. Its something i enjoy doing especially when i get compliments on the quality job i do. I am also a health freak, i love lifting weights in the gym. I've been doing it now for 7 years. I've gone from 140lbs to my current weight and i still plan on growing.
I like being in the outdoors and hanging out with family and friends. I'm not into the drinking scene anymore but i do drink socially when i go to parties or hang out with friends at the bars. I love watching movies and summertime is my favorite time for doing that because all the good movies come out there usually. I am studying Fire Science at Sacramento State.
I work for the US Forest Service as a Wildland Firefighter. I love my job because i get to travel all over the US and fight fire and i am in the outdoors in the Tahoe National Forest when i am home.
Now onto my Sik Vehicles!
The Jeep i have built since i was 16, i've dropped a 92 Mustang 5.0L engine in it with all the boltons, NP435 tranny with granny low 6.69:1 first gear, 1 piece axles in the rear. It has a total of 6 1/2 inches of lift with 35 inch Mickey Thompson Baja Claws.
The Mustang has underdrive pulleys, FMS headers, 3.73 Gears, BBK FPR Eibach 1 inch lowering springs, 98 Cobra rims and a BBK Cold Air Kit. I just installed a battery box in the trunk and a MSD6AL in its palce in the engine compartment. I have an E303 cam for it that i haven't installed yet but i hope to install it sometime soon.
I got this on my 25th Bday, its a 1968 Mustang Fastback. This is what it looks right at the moment. Its a pretty solid car and i got it for a good price. If you want to see what i've done with it up to this point check out the link right after my plans for this car, which are; -532 Big Block 600+HP with long tube headers and everything
-Laser Red paint job, exact same color as my dad's 98 Cobra
-All black interior
-Shelby Scoops
-4pt Roll Bar
-Ford 9" Rearend
-Disc Brakes all the way around
-Coil springs in the rear/tubular A-Arms in the front
-5 or 6 speed transmission
Its going to have a custom front clip in it that will eliminate the shock towers and go to a MustangII setup.
My 68's Homepage
My Dad's Blown 98 Cobra
98 Cobra with a SHM fully built motor capable of handling 1200hp with Stage 2 heads, a Stage 2 intake with shortrunners and blower cams. Its got a P1SC Procharger on it making 13lbs of boost equalling 550rwhp. Right now we're just upgrading everything to get as much out of the car as possible. 31 spline axles, 4.30 gears, fully adjustable rear swaybar, battleboxes, the works. The Cobra is going to get a D1R Procharger and a XFI F.A.S.T. System. Maybe some long tube headers as well. Best time so far is 12.02 at 118mph and thats with spin off the line and getting sideways at half track, this was done BEFORE we installed the 4.30 gears, axles, rear sway bar and Slicks and skinnies. The best time i have gotten with it is 12.20 at 116mph. If you want pictures or videos of runs let me know i got 3 zip disks full, from stock all the way to SHM motor.
