    Can't Downshift from 5th to 4th.

    Like it says... I built a T5 today based on a 86 transmission. I used parts from 4 different T5's spanning 3 revisions. Used 3rd from one, OD from another, the best syncro's from another, see where I am going here... reason is I have less then $100 in all of them, and I have many many spare...

    5 lug AND rear disc conversions

    I found a guy scrapping an SVO (yes yes, I know...OMG A SVO!!! WHY WHY!! it was very rusted). I scabbed the axles, backing plates, rotors, calipers and everything else I wanted and swapped them onto my 87 Turbo Coupe rear end. Gave me 11.3" vented rotors and monster pads. Just another idea...

    How do you fund your projects? especially if married?

    After Bills, child support, and gas money, I have -$300 a month (yes negative). I have a VERY supportive fiance that makes 3 times what I make, and funds my hot rodding activities, the only catch is I have to let her drive it to work from time to time to show off to all the guys that MY car is...

    got a new car

    reat Looking Vert! I would also install a factory oil fill cap. Right now you have a vacume leak with that open element filter on your oil fill..... The tube that runs from the filler neck to the Throttle body is your PCV vent hose. Your sucking un metered air into the crank case and then...

    94 V6 Swap into my 90....

    @Mustang5L5 Not using the 5-Speed from the V6 because its going in the guys 90GT, after I swap the inputshaft and bearing retainer. I didn't want to go to a 302 or a 4.6 because the desire to whip the crap out of it, plus I'll have almost no cash in this swap, save for lines, fluids, and...

    94 V6 Swap into my 90....

    Throwing a turbo on a non-turbo 2.3 is cause for disaster. The cast pistons cant handle more then about 5lbs of boost.... I've been down that road when I was into Rangers....

    94 V6 Swap into my 90....

    OK, I am kinda kicking this idea around because I will have the parts to do it. I am getting a 94 V6 5-speed car for doing a 5-speed swap in a 90GT (Using the 5-speed from the 94, changing the nessessary parts of course). My other Mustang is a 90 LX Notch 4-cyl 5-speed, stone stock, minus...

    3rd gear rattle?? T-5 problem

    you have a bearing going bad. Also check to make sure that all the bolts that bolt the shifter base plate are tight, had that happen to me and I though that was what was wrong....
