    Where to buy tires from?

    Performance Plus in S'toon should be able to get you some prices,maybe not on Goodyears but on Nitto or some drag radials. If not them then The Mustang Shop in Calgary and Western Motorsports as well.

    I have a densecharger MAF forward sitting around

    Yes it's worth it if you just have it sitting around. You won't gain alot but they are usually worth about 5 or so hp on a relatively stock engine.

    Running super rich

    Possibly your long-tubes have cooled the o2 sensors to the point they aren't working properly. If they've got some miles on them they may just need replacement.

    Ignition timing and fuel octane

    Oh-the higher octane gas doesn't pre-ignite (burns slower) so you can run more timing.

    Ignition timing and fuel octane

    When the a/f ignites,not all of it is burnt. If the spark comes in too early,before the piston has a chance to compress it fully,you'll get the initial burn from the spark plug,which will heat the chamber. Then you'll get the second little "burn" from the hot a/f finally being compressed and...

    What's the difference between the vortech s and the sq?

    What he said. But it's not like the S is super loud,just more noticable.

    Spring has come, and maybe time for change

    I think 20 ish is a great starting price for that car. Don't know if anyone in Regina would want to pay it but the car is worth it.

    Here's a Vid...see what you think

    Pull some plugs and make sure you're getting compression. Should be obvious when turning the engine over as you'll hear a loud hiss of the air being pushed out the spark plug hole. The noises sound like metal on metal scraping so it might be your cam sprockets turning on the cams. Why that...

    Stang wont start !!!!!!!

    When you cycle the key on,engine off,do you hear the pump cut in and "whir" for a few seconds? If not then the pump is likely the culprit.

    Uber Stealthy Exhaust Leak

    Common leakage area on our cars. Make sure a gasket was used and get the pins ground down. I know the exhaust shop that originally did my x-pipe years ago had to use the gasket and some exhaust sealant "goop" to prevent a leak on the passenger side.

    Subframe Connectors

    Full length SFC's are the way to go but there are 2 kinds. Some follow the floorpan of the car and you MIGHT lose an inch of ground clearance in the middle of the car but the best way to look at it is,the SFC's will protect the floorpan from scraping while going over a hump. Some SFC's are a...

    thinking of new exhaust...suggestion? guys w/longtubes come in.

    Have Hedman long tube,with a MAC Pro-chamber and Magnaflow cat-back. Sounds great,deep not too loud until you really step into it and run the rpm up over 2500. Not "raspy" (like an old truck with glasspacks) at all.I kinda want to be a bit louder so i just ordered some Magnapack mufflers that...

    Nice bolt on 96 I want cams that lope W/O new springs

    The Comp NPI cams are CAPABLE or running without new valvesprings but i know they recommend it. I have the XE270's which have a nice lope. They are for the PI heads obviously but the equivalent NPI's are the 268's i believe. Personally i'd do the 262's like you were thinking. The 268/270's are...

    Gears in the winter?

    I drove my 88GT with 3.73's one winter. Was actually not bad. I would just pop the clutch at idle,the tires would spin for a few seconds then the car would catch up and i'd slowly pull away. Thsi was with all-season's so you should be better off with the blizzak's. For highway driving the 3.73's...

    P0232 Fuel Pump Secondary Circuit High

    Most likely from when the pump went bad the first time. Clear it and if it comes back then start looking for other problems.
