    +1 :flag: It's a factory built racecar folks. If you think it looks too hacked up, buy it yourself and fix it back up.... :nice:

    I may be getting old, here's how I spent my B-day.

    That room looks really nice Paul!! I spent my bday back on the 12th of Feb driving around a looking for houses. I guess we did go out to eat at a very nice steakhouse the night before, but then we just went home. That was my 26th. :)

    pics of tha STANG

    Looks good, I really like the hood! I love laser red paint too, when my car is clean and the sun is just right, it looks like you could almost reach into the paint it looks so deep.

    Fox TB Conversion Observation

    Just to add fuel to the fire.......... Doesn't the SN95 setup actually create a larger effective intake manifold volume than the Fox setup? Think about it, the throttle body is now further from the intake valves and the air has to go through a bend after the throttle body. That's my...

    Those of you who have owned 5.0/5.8 and 4.6..

    The only differences I know about are: The spindles are a bit wider, adding 8mm to the track on each side. The rear end is wider by a small amount and the lower control arm bolts are thicker. The brakes are the same size as ours with dual piston calipers. The K-member may be a little...

    Just bought the steeda CC plates... right move?

    I didn't explain well enough. Caster is the front to back movement of the CC plate, camber is was tilts the top of your tire in. You want as much caster as possible. Too much camber can wear the inside of your tires, but it sounds like you probably have a toe issue. Maybe toe out?

    Just bought the steeda CC plates... right move?

    You guys are right. Caster Camber plates do allow you to adjust caster. With a stock geometry mustang I believe you want as much caster as possible. Caster is the angle that the strut makes in relation to 90* from the ground.

    How could we keep up with an LS1 with the same power?

    This may be off topic from the original question, but I think you guys are missing one major point. The LS1 is simply a better engine design. The cylinder heads are phenominal in those motors. Take it another step and look at the LS6 or the almighty LS7 and you'll be wanting to swap one of...

    Squeaky Steering noise

    Simple fix: 1) Buy a grease gun and grease 2) Buy the needle attachment and a rubber hose attachment 3) Squirt the ball joints full of grease by puncturing needle through ball joint boot 4) I did this in '98 and it hasn't come back yet.

    Alum flywheel on stock motor

    I have a 6.8lb flywheel on my Civic. I'm not sure how much torque it has, but it's a 2200lb car with a 130hp motor and it runs great. It revs very very quick, but it also drops RPMs quick. I also have a very close ratio gearbox in the Civic, so that has the same effect as running a high...

    Went to the Detroit Auto Show (NAIAS) - Pics inside -DUW-

    The black GT did look good, but I liked the Gulf one better. I also liked the Edge SUV too. It is a huge step towards what Ford needs to start making. I'll have to disagree with you on the Camaro vs. Challenger opinion though. I hated the Camaro and loved the Challenger

    Update on my Turbo 01 GT (pics)

    Oink, I can remember back when your '94 was as stock as mine. All I can say is that I have a lot of admiration for the beautiful work you do. :hail2:

    r134a with leak sealer

    According to the guy I talked to last week about the A/C in my Civic, you do not want to ever use any kind of "stop leak" on an A/C system. I would stay away. Find where the problem is and fix it right. :)
