    Mach 460 Door speakers "only for bass," but all aftrmkt 5x7's have tweeters...??

    I've searched and couldn't really find an answer for this. I was about to buy a pair of 5x7's for the door in my '96 GT with Mach 460. I read that the factory 5.5x7.5 door speakers are only for bass. Is that true? All of the 5x7's I can find are two-way with the tweeters on them. There...

    14" Saleen brakes - Why won't it fit 96-98 Mustang?

    I mainly only ask because I might be able to buy a new set of those calipers for a pretty good price, but if they won't fit I'll just do the 2000 Cobra R kit. I like the twisties, and I'm building a 600 RWHP powerplant for the car. I just want to be able to stop better than standard Cobra...

    14" Saleen brakes - Why won't it fit 96-98 Mustang?

    http://www.saleen.com/SC101_Services/SC101_Shopper/showItem.php?menuId=8&itemNum=091-024 The kit on Saleen's website says it only fits '99-'04 Mustangs. Why? I'm running an 18x9" FR500 in the front of a 96 Mustang, which will clear the 13" 2000 Cobra R brake kit and Roush/Alcon 14" kit...

    Non-PI Head Porting - Who to do the job?

    Nevermind. This thread can be deleted. I don't know how to do it myself.

    Black timing chain guides? DOHC timing-chain guides all the same?

    I'm about to buy some timing-chain guides for my engine build and I was just curious about these: I've never seen black plastic... only the white that eventually turns brownish.

    Jim @ Renegade Racing?

    I need a phone number. I emailed him a while back, but didn't get a response so its not a good address anymore or he's really busy. Can someone get me in contact with him please? I need to send him my heads for some work, and I have questions. Thanks, Michael

    Who's using roller rockers and/or aftmrkt lifters? Why/Why not?

    Yeah I was thinking the same thing about having to constantly adjust the lash, and that didn't really appeal to me either. Too bad a good thing has to be tainted by greed and inconsistency. Guess I'll save my dough and stick with the stock equip.

    UPR K Member kit, any good?

    I don't hear anyone talk about the PA Racing k-members over here, but I'm getting alot of feedback from people I know and from the boards that say the PA Racing is one of the best in quality. I have UPR's 4-bolt CC plates and I dont' see any reason why MM's CC plates would perform better. I...

    Who's using roller rockers and/or aftmrkt lifters? Why/Why not?

    Hmm... No. I wonder why they have set their cost so high. traditional stud-mount roller rockers are still only a few hunderd dollars. I also just finished reading an article about what problems are created for the rockers with regrind cams. Pretty interesting - tried to post the link but I...

    Who's using roller rockers and/or aftmrkt lifters? Why/Why not?

    Roller rockers used to be a big deal on pushrod motors, but I haven't heard much about it on modulars... In fact, until recently I didn't even know that there were any aftermarket roller rockers for mod-motors. I thought everyone used the stock stuff. I'm being told to just used the stock...

    Overbore questions ->

    I'm about to have an '01 Cobra block machined for a build up and I have no idea by looking at the cyl walls to know whether they will need to be bored. If the cylinders need to be bored, will they do a .020 overbore? I'm guessing .030 wouldn't be needed unless the cylinders were really worn...

    Aftermarket rockers & lifters a big deal, I guess?

    The first I've heard of it also. I just assumed that everyone was re-using the stock rockers and lifters regardless of NA/Boosted/N2O/etc... I don't even see a very big selection of aftermarket rocker arms or lifters. I'm all for a smoother running motor and a few more ponies, but I wasn't...

    Aftermarket rockers & lifters a big deal, I guess?

    http://www.secondstreetspeed.com/articles/modular%20rock%20&%20roll/modular_roll.htm I didn't realize that there was so much going on with the rocker arms and lifters on our over-head cam motors. I kind of thought that was something left behind in the pushrod motors. I stumbled across the...

    Black "Ford" oval trunk emblem?

    Its ok. The dark blue ones look black in most pics... A few times I thought I found a black on ebay but the sellers all come back and say, "its dark blue, but black would be cool."

    Black "Ford" oval trunk emblem?

    Found one place http://planetauto.homestead.com/emblems.html Found a place that does all factory colors ^^^ But I emailed the guy and he says he isn't selling them right now... He did say maybe by the end of the summer though.

    Black or Silver Brembo calipers for Rio Red Cobra?

    Only 12 votes... black has a 50% lead on silver so I'm guessing black would be more favorable by you, the viewers, haha.

    Fr500's w/BFGoodies KDW NT.. PICS

    Yeah. Sorry again. At first glance your 295 KDW's looked really bubbly and that's what alarmed me and made me think I shouldv'e gone with a 285, but I looked at your pics a little longer and they look fine. I have 295 Falkens now and I like the way they fit, but they quit making them so I...

    Fr500's w/BFGoodies KDW NT.. PICS

    Awe man, you're too fast! I tried to take that out of my post cause I didn't want to seem like I was attacking your car. Sorry, its just a matter of preference. I know some guys like meaty tires. I don't like my tires to be stretched really, I just like the shoulders to be square and the...
