    Pro-M bench flows all their own MAF and send you the flow sheet. And you can get it in chrome too.

    Gears, pullies, and a new shifter (not really a speed item).

    fitment problem

    Mine fit no problem. I don't think there are any changes betweenn the 01 and 03 exhaust setup. Did you actually try to bolt it up yet, or just hold it up there? Sometimes once you get one bolt started, the job goes easier.

    Track times after "DRAGON" Plenum install, come on inside--->

    Congrats on the new times and BTW your car has always been one of my favorites. How hard is it to install the LCA's...did you do it yourself?

    Polishing the C&L upper intake?

    thanks, where did you get it from? Is it real abrasive, because aluminum is a soft metal and it is doesn't take much to sand it down.

    launch & shift points at the track?

    Let me get this straight Darkwing, you ride the clutch just a little everytime you shift. :shrug: Let me know how long your stock clutch lasts, LOL

    WD-40 and a wire wheel or what?

    Polishing the C&L upper intake?

    What did you use to polish it? Did you first install it "as is" and then remove and polish it, or did you polish it from the start?

    Polishing the C&L upper intake?

    Did any of you guys polish the inside of your intake? Since it is so cold outside I figured I had plenty of time to work on it. I was just going to use a wire wheel attached to a variable speed drill. Since the intake is aluminum, it shouldn't take more than 30 minutes. Does anyone have any...

    Good time to replace the stock clutch?

    I think the clutch was $279, the throw out bearing was another $30, and then I bought the mandatory, ugraded, Steeda clutch cable, firewall adjuster, and quadrant for $100. Install was $200.

    Welcome to the spoilerless club. It is a lot easier to wash/dry now too.

    Tires

    Check out DiscountTire.com for specs on different types of tires. I don't know if you are interested in all season performance or strictly dry pavement.

    Good time to replace the stock clutch?

    BTW where in Chicago are you located 23 Stang? Do you ever check out the Midwest forums? If you ever see a shiny red GT without the rear spoiler flying down either the Eisenhower or the Kennedy, it is probably me. :D

    Good time to replace the stock clutch?

    I only drive the car about once a week, so when I do I usually drive it pretty hard. I think the stock clutch is fine for a stock car, but once you start to modify it, the clutch can't handle the added stress. I think the biggest contributor to premature failure was the addition of my...

    How Streetable?

    I'd put some money aside for some super sticky tires. I think as long as you stay below 3k rpm on the 1-2 shift you should be okay. BTW congrats on the purchase.

    Good time to replace the stock clutch?

    Well, if your stock clutch is like mine and so are your driving habits, then you got about another 2k miles to go before it starts to slip. However, until you can't get the car sideways in second gear anymore, the clutch is fine. When it is time to upgrade, most people will say either Spec...

    Spec Stage 2 vs. King Cobra clutch

    Spec II is definitely the way to go, or even Centerforce Dual Friction. Remember that you get what you pay for, and there is a reason why the King Cobra is $100 less.

    Driving a stick...

    Totally agreed with LI98GT. It takes practice, but after awhile you just don't even think about. Nothing beats being able to drive down the road and being able to downshift into any gear you want without any jerking.

    Driving a stick...

    Why double clutch when you can do that in one smooth movement? Just give it a little gas to rev match. You will learn with time what different speeds go with which gear.
