Ah ok. From what I've read, the less coats you use, the harder it is to take off.

If you don't like it, take it off. :nice: Also, how many coats of PlastiDip did you use? I did about 4 coats and it peeled off very easy.

Stock for stock, if they just swapped, it would be slower. I'm sure they thought "omg cop cars are fast." Stock it should have: 250hp @ 4900rpm 287tq @ 4100rpm Compared to a '99 GT: 260hp @ 5250rpm 300tq @ 4000rpm

Don't forget that most hourly employees get an annual raise (at least around these parts). Every single company involved in the process wants to recoup their losses in this respect.

Yes. Also, I would try to keep any modifications that would work on the Mach 1.

Also, I would contact Bama and find out if they've had this type of situation before. At least ask them about the "shift pressure" increase. Maybe someone has already gone through this, and you could benefit from the resolution.

You probably have to remove the filter anyway to get to the solenoid. Also check this site. Don't know it personally, but it has quite a bit of stuff for the Automatic. http://ford-aode.com/#Level%202

I ran 255/40/17 on all four of my stock rims (until I replaced them with stock size again). They were Firestone Firehawks on clearance. The only problem I had was when the wheel was turned all the way, there was some rubbing.

You're pretty far off. Apparently they don't want you messing inside the transmission, so it's left out of the books. It's inside your transmission. You'll be going into it. See if you can find a youtube video or something that details the removal and installation.

No, I don't think the gas octane had anything to do with your transmission issues. I would think your adjustment of the "shift pressure" was the start of your problems. But you can also check all of the wiring from the solenoid to the transmission control module, to see if anything is...

A couple things I would like to point out (I'm guessing you have the SCT SF3 with 3 tunes, by the way). The "Street" and "Performance" tunes have the same Automatic Transmission tuning. Only the "Race" tune is different in this aspect. When changing to a higher octane gas, it's my...

Yes, you can change the plugs without removing the fuel rails.

I wasn't interested in '03 Cobra rims, but I couldn't beat the price (free off of my brother's '03 Cobra). 17x9 275 front, 17x10.5 315 rear

The Edelbrock plenum adapter is $70. If you get the $100 Edelbrock fuel rails, you'll need the fuel rail pressure sensor adapter; which is $50. You'll also need new bolts for most everything, new fuel hoses and connections, and delete the EGR most likely. Oh, and modify your alternator...

You're correct on the Fox. Anything that helped people forget the Pinto-ish car was good in their opinion. I do hope they continue to improve.

I wasn't saying the styling was the only reason for it's popularity; but it did play a part. Some people do like the way the Fox looks. Also, some people prefer the Four Eyes and vice versa. Excerpts about the 1979 Mustang: Also take a look at the 2005 Mustang. Then take a look at the...

Hate to break it to you, but when the Fox came out, everyone GUSHED over all of the EUROPEAN STYLING of the car. Which got even MORE European Styling on the SVO Mustangs. Also at the end of your paragraph, you contradict what you said at the beginning. The Fox looked nothing like it, but was...

So you're saying it's the government's fault they hit rock bottom the first time? I thought it was sub-par management and products. Also, Alan Mulally had the majority of his career centered on Airplanes, took over Ford, and returned them to profitability. As for letting a new car warm up...

Although I doubt it will last more than a couple weeks in white. Should be hell to keep clean.

Why not both? I've already taken the black plasti dip off of my rims. Just need a couple more cans of white and I'll be doing white.
