    Stock gear options?

    2000 has the t45 has a.68 5th I believe. 2004 has 3650 .62 5th gear. 4.10's +90 mph + 3650 = 3k rpm. :D

    I need alot of help boys

    The hummming may not be a "bent" rearend. Some common items that can cause it. 1. Improper gear setup. 2. Bearings going bad. 3. Since it's a IRS might want to check the boots and assorted parts back there. I know on FWD a torn CV boot will let moisture in and take out bearings and make a...

    Can standard length Subframe connectors be taken off?

    If you can get to the weld to grind through them YES. IF not them not real easily.

    I need alot of help boys

    First off are you mechanical inclined? If not shop around and find a reputable shop to do the work and go with what they suggest. An 8.8 will handle what you throw at it, but I'd fix the IRS keep the handling if it was me. Which brings another question why do you think it's "Bent"? Also...

    simple green, simple pleasure..

    I use a 50/50 mix for cleaning the car with. I spray mine down on a warm engine, let set a minute or two, and hose off. Repeat till I get the look I want. I've also done it while running. If your going to scrub I'd do it on a cool engine so you don't burn yourself. BTW may or maynot be...

    Will adding MM full-length subframe connectors affect my ride quality?

    There is a slight reduction in ride quality but it is way offset by the positives IMO.

    Rough Ride - Normal?

    Good chance it is worn shocks and struts. But keep in mind a mustang does ride a little rougher than a typical passenger car. It is what allows us as drivers to push the cars further and tell what is going on at the road surface.

    Squires Remote Mount Turbo?

    seen a few Fbodies with them. They don't really complain of any lag, sorry I've owned too many turbo cars to believe the NO LAG theory, but my understanding is they use a smaller than normal hotside inlet. That allows it to spool been so far back, the problem I see and feel would be is the fact...

    First time at track in 00 GT

    Well you already know the 60' is where big gains can be made. However I think your MPH is a lil low. You are staying in it through the traps correct? I've seen alot of first timers get on the brakes or back outta the throttle before they cross the lights. Might wanna play with shift points. I...

    ex. leak.

    Or you can leave the studs in there and put some washers under the nut then tighten down. Also when you do it MAKE certain that the driver side is getting pulled up evenly otherwise you'll get a leak. The mac h's seem to be outta a thinner guage and will warp and won't seal properly if...

    Edelbrock Manifold vs. Typhoon

    I figured the efi unit would be much like the sullivan 4v unit. Basically a carb intake with the injector holes already drilled out. Can someone explain to me just WTF edelbrock is thinking? UMMM 351c heads? Yet no mod motor heads. A carbed 2v intake? Yet no streetable replacement efi intake.

    SCT flash or Predator

    I say SCT mainly because that seems to be what all the tuning shops are switching to. But in all honesty whichever a local dyno tuning facility uses will yeild the best results.

    Headers & X pipes

    Frpp shorties - saw a 20rwhp increase with them with everything else the same. IMO freakish results for shorties. mid pipes used. Stock - exhaust leak was driving me nuts and was waiting on new or mid. Prochamber - first OR midpipe I had, but would not clear DS loop so I had to replace...

    Am I just too tall??

    I'm 6'2" and have zero issues. Got one buddy with a 96 cobra he is 6'4" and he has no issues. Another local guy has a 00 gt and he is 6'10" and he has no problems. Did you try playing with the seat? some prefer it raised or lowered for their legs.

    GTvsCobra

    4v much more to work with than a 2v. cobra better brakes, better suspension, smoother lines. But junky t45 tranny. Now having said that 2v's are not to just be dismissed, they can be driven to perform at the level of a cobra.
