    Not a Stang, but I only trust you guys...

    My room mates car is acting up. It is a 2000 chevy malibu, 3.1 V6. It lost power, started smoking out the exhaust, and when I looked at it I saw the spark plug wire arcing off onto the block. From there, I had my friend replace the spark plugs and wires since he hasn't done it in three years...

    4-20-08

    That day is a new holiday. My friend died on 420 by drowning in a river. Every 420 I will light up a blunt in his name and so should you. He was too young to pass away. Sorry, just had to talk to someone.

    Not a Mustang, but still a Ford.

    I have a 93 Ford Taurus with 184,000 miles on the ticker. I bought it 15,000 or 20,000 miles ago, and right when I got it I replaced the air filter, rotor, cap, wires, spark plugs, and an oil change. I have done a few more oil changes since then. I have been driving it while it's still cold...

    Tork Tech SuperChargers?

    Look nice and come complete with fuel upgrades to intercooler. Anything wrong with them? I met up with an old friend who has a 96GT with a dead 2v and will sell it to me in 2 months for $1500-2500. So, time to build a new motor. I was thinking about forged interals, ported heads, stock cams...

    This possible with a 96-98 2v?

    Well, I was wanting a Cobra, but the insurance would bend me over and yea. Now I am debating about getting a 96-98 Gt and putting every bolton on it. I am not talking about the stock non pi heads or intake. How can I get 300-320 hp at the wheels? I have read where some people got 290hp with...

    Ok, I want to put this to rest.

    I owned an 89 Gt. It had over 130k miles on it. My friends always keep telling me that it had more Hp than I would always say. They keep thinking I was around 250! That is ridiculous! The mods were, a mac cai (which is nothing basically), shorty headers, o/r h-pipe, flowmaster mufflers, and...

    Hi, I am new to Cobras, and have questions.

    I will be purchasing a Cobra in the next few months. I prefer to get a 99-01, but mostly a 99 because of the price. I have had 5.0's and recently had a 4.6 SOHC and loved the 4.6 over the 5.0's. This time I have decided to get a DOHC 4.6. I noticed that the 99 is rated at 315hp at flywheel...

    can you take a na 2.3 engine rebuild it with the turbo2.3 internals, tap the oil pan, and slap a turbo on with the na heads and intake? but the wiring would have to be done too.
