    E-brake

    That's what I was just thinking. I just read this whole thread and all I saw was everyone giving one-liners about The Fast and The Furious 3. From what I know, if you constantly pull your hand brake to do powerslides, it does put stress on the cable and may loosen up or even break. Most stunt...

    difference in dashes?

    It may have been a Roush. They put carbon fiber on some of their dashes.

    Shorty header/supercharger combo??

    They will produce a deeper tone than stock, but not a much as long tubes.

    Shorty header/supercharger combo??

    The headers will run hotter than the stock manifold because they are made with less material. Because of that your engine compartment will be hotter. In my opinion if you are going to be investing money in new headers, why not invest a little more in the ceramic coating. JBA has two ceramic...

    How to Butcher a 69 Mach 1

    I almost feel obligated to buy it to fix it up. That is a shame. The convertible he has for sale with 20" rims is just as bad.

    Shorty header/supercharger combo??

    Equal length shorties like JBA and long tube headers reduce back pressure. Since each cylinder has its own exhaust tube of equal length, the gasses from the engine can flow with less restriction, thus increasing HP. With the stock exhaust manifold, sometimes gasses don't have enough time to...

    Gears and returning to stock question?

    If you take off your CAI you notice very little change. It won't perform as well. I would not remove the gears. That is way too much hassle to go through, the dealership will never know. Unless the problem you're talking about is with your drivetrain. And I wouldn't worry about removing the...

    AC not cooling that well

    My '02 mustang GT came with a Freon leak from the factory. They added a UV dye to the Freon and found the leak. (A small hole in one of the lines) It was covered under the 3/36,000 warrantee.

    POWERHOUSE driveshaft

    I say buy the aluminum driveshaft and if it breaks buy another aluminum driveshaft and that will be the cost of one carbon fiber driveshaft.

    Shorty header/supercharger combo??

    Shorty headers will not add much if any performance. Equal length shorties like JBA shorties might add a little performance with a supercharger. The big advantage would be if you have ceramic coated headers. This will lower engine bay temps produced by the supercharger. If you are looking for...

    Just Wanted to Say Thanks

    That’s the way to do it, discounted price, broken-in engine and still new. Great looking car, I love that color too.

    POWERHOUSE driveshaft

    Physics says you would see more rear end hp and torque. So you should see some improvement.

    POWERHOUSE driveshaft

    What are the advantages or disadvantages of a one-piece vs. two-piece driveshaft, excluding weight as a factor?

    California Special

    I hear a lot of people ordering their '07 stangs, mostly GT's and GT500's. Just wondering if anyone has ordered the Cali Special yet. Not to put the car down or anything, but does anyone really want one? :shrug:

    281 Fender Emblem

    Well, you could always make your own. Just buy an original 289 emblem and replace the 289 with 281. I'm sure it wouldn’t be hard to find raised lettering that matches the original chevron. Or even make your own chevron. :shrug:

    Saleen,Roush or Cevini ??

    The headrest louvers and the exhaust were early '05 problems and are now all fixed. As for the $5.00 short throw shifter, it may be inexpensive, but it is one of the nicest shifters I've had.
