    Car washing question for those in apartments

    You can do a quarter wash with a bucket and your own mitt if you go early or late or during an "off time" and aren't holding-up other customers. Toss some quarters in to fill the bucket and do a rinse. Then wash by hand, the some more quarters for the spotless rinse, dry it and drive back to...

    Saleen 89-372 brake pads and PNs

    Welcome! Saleen used Ford Motorsport/SVO conversion parts to the 5-lug, which is basically 1984-86 Mustang SVO and Lincoln Mark VII through 1987. The Hawk HPS are pretty popular, but they also have a PC Performance Ceramic which sounds interesting. I do like Porterfield R4-S pads as...

    How should I clean my motor?

    What kind of spray did you use that adds a supercharger??? :rlaugh: What I like to do is clean it using some of the suggestions above, sometimes just a car wash solution and a detail brush. Simple Green 100% can stain some bare aluminums, so be careful. After I rinse, I take a mixture of 1...

    Headlight Restoration Project "How To" with pics

    If you don't reseal with a new hardcoat -- which if done professionally costs about $100 -- you need to protect it with a final high-speed polish with a plastic polish. Leaving the surface unprotected is very likely why they're oxidizing again so quickly. They may look good initially, but...

    Headlight Restoration Project "How To" with pics

    Sometimes you can't get all the yellow out. If you've sanded with a paper that aggressive, you've probably removed all of the hardcoat; if you have not, you may have some of the remaining hardcoat that is yellow and it needs to be sanded a little more. Having done this myself a few times...

    Saleen Question about buying a Saleen

    The nice thing about the Saleen S281 and S302 series, especially the 3-Valve (non-supercharged), or the Supercharged, is drivetrain-wise it's basically untouched bullet-proof Ford components. Prices these days are very attractive indeed on "fun" cars like these. Most of the few problems...

    HELP!!! GT500/Saleen Extreme Fuel System Swap

    Glad you got it working! In Saleen's defense, it's really a technical document and not a "consumer" document, but I hear what you're saying. Thanks for the update!

    HELP!!! GT500/Saleen Extreme Fuel System Swap

    I don't know too much, but if you're talking about the Saleen Dual Fuel Pump Kit, the Saleen kit includes a fuel pump harness and involves cutting and jumping some wires. There's a 9-page installation PDF from Saleen that I'd be happy to send you if you PM me your e-mail address.

    Saleen V6 Saleen

    The one challenge with V6 Sports is they are few and far between -- and for the most part, undocumented. Do your homework.

    1990 Saleen. should i buy?

    Be sure you get the Ford VIN and call 800-888-8945 option 2 and verify it's a genuine Saleen and how it was equipped from the factory to compare how it sits now. Also get the bumper number and I can look the car up in the registry and verify equipment according to that. Depending on the...

    Saleen NEW SALEEN OWNER!!!!

    veryslow5point0, A hearty congratulations on your "new" Saleen -- she sounds like a beaut! The lower-case "c" on the bumper, as I understand it, would be the 8th car for that model year built by the now-defunct Saleen of Canada -- the "c" on the bumper does not mean an S281 Cobra. However, it...

    Roush where to buy saleen kits for 87-93,94-98 mustang?

    Stage3Motorsports in Arizona is pretty much the sole source for those generations of Saleen Mustang parts. Saleen Inc. liquidated virtually everything they could find last year that wasn't 2005-09 -- and if they missed something, it was probably an accident.

    Roush Supercharger issue

    I know of a questionable cosmetic issue that was talked about (I think) on this forum. I also know of another person (possibly also on this forum) who had an issue on a vehicle that was purchased after February 2 that was initially denied, but that issue has now been handled. In any case...
