    Good heads are a really important building block when you start to mod your engine. They allow all other mods to give their full potential.

    Crappy morning

    It has been awful here the last two days, big hail storms in the afternoon. If you can't garage your car it takes a real beating.

    Another Speedo Gear Question

    Looks like speedo error is actually about 12.5% and that should be consistent throughout your speed range. Of course that depends on the other cars speed being right. A good test is to drive on a highway with mile marker signs and compare your odometer distance reading to the actual mile...

    Good morning Left laners

    I pull over and let them go by to give me a "blocker", would rather have the police already busy with another customer when I get there. But usually when they get in front they decide they are not in such a hurry anymore.

    Passing emissions with big horsepower?

    It is much easier to pass with big power from forced inuction, and many of the blowers out there are EPA legal. Big N/A power usually requires long duration cams with lots of overlap and these are awful for emissions. I would not remove any emissions parts, but for those of you who do remove...

    What is the next possible GT engine?

    Ecoboost twin turbo V-6, puts out 365hp in the new Taurus SHO. Expect a turbo V-6 to replace most V-8 engines for better fuel economy, and tubo 4 cylinder engines where you used to get an N/A V-6.

    calling convertible owner

    I would definitely fix it. I really like to push that button to put my top down and drive away while my neighbor is still struggling with the T-top on his Trans Am.

    Bogging Way down

    Sounds like it is running out of gas. Have you changed the fuel filter?

    cams

    Not sure what you mean by "too big". You may need to upgrade your valve springs, I would contact Trick Flow and ask them. Long duration with lots of overlap is what usually causes trouble (hurts low end power, causes high emissions, may cause piston to valve clearance issues). Stock PI intake...

    Rocker arms, Cam, Lifters?

    The GT engine is a single overhead cam design with one cam in the top of each cylinder head. So even though there are two cams in the engine it is called SOHC. The Cobra has the dual overhead cam design with two cams in the top of each cylinder head, for a total of four cams in the engine. Cobra...

    New Pics....New Lights and New Plate! 56k death

    How is visibility with those lights? They look great but the OE clear ones on my GT are barely adequate on dark mountain roads here in Colorado, I would not want any less light.
