    Another Cowl thread

    I need help determining if I need to remove the vent over the cowl to inspect it better, or if I am going to be good as is. There was some debris in the drains, but they were flowing good, and no water is coming into the car. Here are some pics <a...

    Mustang= Good handling???

    I took my V6 with pony package out for a mini road trip through the Santa Monica Mountains last weekend, and was quite pleased with the handling. I felt it was much more stiff, and even a little better in the twisties than my 01 GT vert. (maybe I'm dreaming) Anyways, My buddy was in a BMW...

    Fixing heater core hose pipe on Intake manifold

    I had my Heater core hose pipe break off clean at the top of the intake manifold last night. I have a plan for fixing it, but thought I'd run it by the experts first. I want to tap the hole with a 3/8ths "Pipe Tap" (a regular tap won't work) Then thread a 3/8ths galvanized 3" nipple with a...

    auto vs. manual

I always assumed this would be a drivers race and of course a good driver could make the manual go faster. What about if the auto has chip with the more aggressive shift points. Those of...
