    Fox V8 Springs

    This is related to a common topic. I just got a set of Fox-body V8 springs, and common wisdom is that you should use cut V8s for the rear and 4 cyls for the front. What is the advantage of 4 cyls on the front? Why not use the V8 springs on the front? Is it related to the spring rate of the...

    can the 04 mach 460 play mp3s?

    Or can only the mach mp3 do that? I did a search earlier and saw that the 02 mach 460 is not mp3 capable. Did Ford remedy this? Or is it an either/or situation?

    New User/New Owner - Springs question

    Hey all, new Stang owner here ('04 GT - competition orange). I've been lurking for a couple of months, trying to learn as much as possible. I would like to do some basic mods to my car, and I have a question about lowering springs: it seems as if Eibach pro-kit and sportline are the popular...
