    2.3 vs 5.0 pedal assembly

    So far I've had no problems. The only downside is that the fox body pedal assembly helps to hold the steering wheel in place and the SN95 doesn't.

    2.3 vs 5.0 pedal assembly

    :stupid: It took me about 5 seconds to fit the SN95 pedal assembly up and bolt it in.

    Guess who has 3 pedals!!

    Wait don't tell me the freaking bellhousings are different. We decided today to go cable, because today at work my dad found a manual mustang out in the yard. The only reason we were going hydraulic in the first place is because that's what we had from the Turbocoupe. So hopefully by the end of...

    Guess who has 3 pedals!!

    I wanted to, but that means we need to get all the cable parts, including the quadrant, firewall adjuster, cable, new throwout arm, etc.

    Guess who has 3 pedals!!

    Well it's about 330 Sunday afternoon and the swap is still not complete. My dad's been dragging his feet big time, so we only put in about 3 hours of work yesterday. So far we have the pedals in, the A4LD out, and the shifter out. Now we're struggling to find parts for the hydraulic clutch, and...

    Guess who has 3 pedals!!

    Speedo cable? Huh? Umm I'm not sure I even messed with that, but I think my speedo works, so hopefully I'm okay. It took me about 2 hours Wednesday night, until I realized I needed to go buy an 18mm socket to get the steering wheel out, then last night about 3 hours. The teardown was a bit of...

    Woot. Tonight part 1 of the T-5 swap was completed. I got the pedal assembly all swapped over, and it's ready for phase 2, starting Saturday morning. :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: A4LD is gonna = :owned: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana:

    Nut size question

    Hey guys, I need to know what size the nut is that holds the steering wheel in. It's the one that you access under the hood right before the U joint. I think it's an 18mm, but seeing as how I don't have one, I couldn't make sure. Also to the Kansas guys, if it is an 18mm, I'll be needing...

    2.3 Turbo over 5.0

    The A4LD will bolt up, but it sucks up a lot of the power from the motor and is also pretty weak, meaning with the turbo motor there's a good chance it'll break. You can get a T5 from any 2.3 manual car. Mine is a World Class T5 from an '88 Turbocoupe. From what I understand, the WCs have better...

    Found a SWEET model today at Walmart!

    It's a (79 or 80?) turbo Cobra. Red with black trim, 5 spokes and a really nice Cobra graphic on the hood. It's made by Revell, but I can't find it on their site. If I can ever find someone to host my pics, I'll post them.

    Found a SWEET model today at Walmart!

    I'm not positive the pics will work, so give me some time to troubleshoot. I got this model today at Walmart. It was the last one, and the only one I've ever seen, so I thought I was obligated to buy it. I will post pics of it when I build it, but it will be a while. I don't regularly do models...

    Guess What I'm Gonna Fire Up Tuesday...(LONG)

    SVO, turboed 91, shop with lots of tools, tons of spare parts, etc. I don't feel sorry for you because you "overmodded" the SVO. :nonono:

    My goal for a turbo build, what would it take?

    5.0 throttle bodies can be used, but an adapter plate is needed. Get subframe connectors, roll cage, bigger wheels with better tires (5-lug swap), maybe coilovers, panhard bar, camber/caster plates, and definitely polyurethane bushings. As for the turbo, I imagine a T3/T4 would be good. It seems...

    Why??????

    Yeah but it's built for alcohol. I don't know why that makes a difference, but I think it does. :shrug:

    I had a fender-bender, now I have some money

    Dude, no freaking contest. Get a panhard bar NOW! You will not believe the difference it makes.

    what's the fastest N/A 2.3 mustang

    I was just hoping to get a rise out of Crovax, but I failed.
