    Fox Speedometer WTH

    My speedometer is all over the place and it sucks. It squeals with every revolution of my wheels and it is annoying not to mention the fact that I really do not know what my exact speeds is. I replaced the cable which wasn't broken along with the VSS from LMR and I still have no speedometer. I'm...

    What's it Worth? 18" Sn-95 Roush wheels worth

    I got a set that were on my uncles Roush. Beautiful car that he sold without the wheels. One wheel had a crack that lead to a slow leak that I had fixed and all the lips of the wheels polished. I might put them on my fox. What are they worth?

    4door Svt Game

    I recently acquired a 1999 SVT Contour. I did a full tune up on this car and found that this has a 3L swap done at some point in its life, painted the front clip of the car, and replaced the front struts when I added H&R springs. While not the fastest out here by a long shot, it's a fun car to...

    Engine Keep Blowing The Durn Head Gaskets!!!!

    My set up is typical cookie cutter simple, why do I keep blowing my head gaskets??? This will be the second time in the last couple of months. Do you think I should get it retuned?

    Chasing A Power Loss Issue

    Got some questions regarding a HP loss feeling with my car. The car seems as though it has an on/off switch. My suspicions were confirmed when I took it to the local 8th mile for some test and tune and the fastest that I could muster was a 8.38. I was running those times without the V3! Cruising...

    In my quest to get this car running by this weekend, I'm in a bit of a pickle. I cannot for the life of me figure out how the hose from the Vapor canister gets connected. Anyone have any pictures or anything on getting it back connected. I remember that it comes from the canister to the lower...

    Cam Decision

    Well as you all know, I snatched the motor out of my car to inspect what I thought was some major damage. Turns out that I had a couple of bad lifters. While the engine has been out, I thought it would be a good idea to do a minor rebuild/repaint of the bottom end. Everything is pretty much put...

    Riddle Me This Knock

    I was cruising along about 5 miles away from home and I start to hear a disgusting knock. At first thought I say I must have cleaned out a bearing but I don't know.
