    cracked intake....

    I went the KB route with the 9psi intercooled unit. I could not see installing the 6psi and then someday adding the intercooler. I am very happy with my decision. I found out during the tear down that my intake gasket had a bad spot near the thermotstat outlet. That explained the coolant...

    supercharger question and 4.10's w/6 speed

    I have the KB 1.7 at 9psi intercooled with 4.10s. I love it. Yeah, first gear doesn't last long but 2nd and 3rd are loads of fun. I even have lots of power in 5th on the highway. I guess 4.10s might work a bit better with a 6-speed. But I don't know for sure. What are the ratios?

    Might be going to the drag strip... A few questions.

    ------------------------- Does he really care if he gets smoked? It's his first run. So he should not be worrying about the guy/girl in the next lane. He just wants to see how fast it will go and have some fun too. So what if he starts early and red lights or starts late. He still will...

    Odd problem

    This is a very intermittent problem. I notice every so often when turning the steering wheel the wiper will activate. I figure there must be some intermittent short somewhere in the steering column. I don't really want to have to pull all that apart as I have heard they can be a bear with...

    Finally My DYNO numbers are IN

    My first dyno on my stock 2000 GT was 223 on a Dynojet dyno. It's a 5-speed just like yours. So I think your numbers are reasonable.

    Dumb-a** Camaro driver

    So you are saying it would be her fault that the Camaro hit the SUV? She did not make the Camaro driver do what he did. The Camaro may have hit the SUV even if the Mustang did not speed up. Seems many of the highways I drive on now the people are already driving 10 - 15 mph over the limit...

    There is oil in my coolant, please help!

    I have never heard of oil getting into the cooling system. But I have heard of coolant getting into the oil pan. Usaully a head gasket will allow coolant to get down to the pan. And you will see it in the oil. Are you sure someone didn't acciently try to add oil to the overflow thinking it...

    What spark plugs for a Supercharged 2V?

    I installed the Iridium ones. KB recommended those. No problems, but were expensive.

    Need your opinion on a decision about SC vs Bolt ons

    So far I love my KB 1.7. Just want to get a dyno run to see what I actually have for HP/torque.

    Coolant leaking from firewall - need help

    I know when I did a heater core replacement in my old 1985 Capri it was an all day job. Steering wheel had to drop, and the dash had to be removed just to get to the heater box. If I had not had A/C I believe I could have had it easier. The manual seemed to imply you could just get to the...

    Aluminum head pitting

    I am in the process of installing my KB. While cleaning the drivers side intake area I noticed some pitting around the front coolant passage and the thermostat passage. I had thought I had smelled a whiff of coolant now and then but had never seen any signs of a leak. The old gasket had a...

    Gears and Kenne Bell

    Yes, I know (or have read) that KB and 4.10 is not the best combo. I really was not going to go supercharged so went with the 4.10s for that reason. Now I have them and the KB. Yes, the Predator merely flashed the change for the ratio. I don't believe the Kenne Bell chip does anything...

    Gears and Kenne Bell

    Quite awhile back I upgraded my gears and used a Predator to set the correct ratio. I have now gotten my Kenne Bell and am set to start installing it. My question (and I tried searching) is can I somehow keep the Predator gear setting? I know I have to remove the custom tune, so I am...

    what kind of supercharger

    My 9psi intercooled Kenne Bell was just over $5000, and that included $160 to ship it. I am quite impressed and can't wait to install it. But I have a trip to make this weekend and didn't want to be in the middle of installing it and not have my car for this drive. The weather should be...

    Grinding/knocking sound coming from rear.

    Could be your rear wheel bearings. Mine were shot. The guy who did my rear-end work (installing 4.10s while there) showed them to me. All pitted and nasty. Says he has been seeing quite a few fairly low mileage Mustangs with bad bearings. Mine is a 2000 with under 50,000 miles. I would...

    Please Help! I cant remember screw locations

    Bag and label, just like someone else said. I had an older Mustang torn apart for years, and had bagged and labelled everything I took off. You can always make a cardboard template and draw a rough drawing of what it came from and then punch the screws/bolts into their corresponding spots...
