    BBK Longtubes and offroad H-Pipe

    BBK headers and midpipes fit good. the install isnt bad, its just time consuming. remove the k-member, reuse all the stock studs and nuts, use stock header gaskets, and be patient. -Mike

    Who makes the best camshafts for 99+ GT's??

    when i said you really cant go wrong with either i was thinking of Kurgan's car. the Comp cams he got work very well in a stock longblock, he picked up a bunch. its too bad he dosent have a Bullitt intake... it would be interesting to see Bill's VTs vs. Kurgan's Comps head to head since both...

    tire question...

    that would be a perfect size combination...245/45s up front and 275/40s out back. i used to have BFG KDs in those sizes and my car handled like a banshee. as for running Nittos front and back, well, as long as the pattern is the same... i say go for it. if you run too wide a tire the car will be...

    Who makes the best camshafts for 99+ GT's??

    you really cant go wrong with VT or Comp. be sure to use Comp springs with ANY cam upgrade you decide on. i have VT Stage One cams on order. the gains i saw in Bill's car were too hard to pass up, and (as aways) i want to duplicate a proven combination. whats more impressive is the fact that...

    tire question...

    its always good to keep tread patterns the same when you can. if you run too wide a tire up front the car wont track right... you'll catch every rut or other imperfection in the road. -Mike

    Is this too much money for an alignment?

    base cost for alignment is $59.95 at our shop. typical Mustangs with Steeda Sports or springs along those lines are $59.95, and c/c plate are never required. if a car is too low to get up the ramps we charge an extra fee just to get the car on the lift, we can get anythig up, its just a...

    Made a ram-air headlamp *DUW*

    seagulls... :lol: honestly, i dont see a problem with debris. i had a similar set-up on my LX and it was never an issue. then when i switched to a carb i had a sealed airpan with an open foward facing hood scoop and ran with no filter, no issues there either. -Mike

    Stud hitting tube causing leak.. is there a way to cut the end off?

    remove material from the tip of the stud with a die grinder or carefully with a cut-off wheel. i wouldent use a bolt. do whatever it takes to re-use the stud and nut. -Mike
