    Aluminum Flywheel

    I have one. You will notice that the engine will rev and accelerate quicker, but it's nothing drastic. I've found that it helps mostly when coming off the line and in between shifts because it doesn't shock the rear tires as much, resulting in better traction. I doubt it'll free up more than 2-3...

    need info for track with new 4.6

    If you're not good at slipping the clutch, launch low...around 1700RPM or so.

    Purchasing cams and need Good Mechanic in the DC/VA/MD area...

    I can probably get the guy who helped with mine to do yours. He's up in Baltimore, and usually does work on weekends. If you're interested, PM me for a price.

    Sounds like the clutch plate took a dump on you.

    Anyone using Autometer temp gauge???

    I'm in the same boat as you. The computer doesn't like life without the stock sender, so I'll be using a T to wire both senders in.

    Is having the mufflers dumped bad?

    Dumps won't hurt performance any, and at the very least you get the benefit of extra weight savings. I love my dumps...unfortunately the cops don't. :nonono:

    I'm running Tokico Illuminas on the front and the stock shocks out back.

    Lowering Springs - Track times. Post em!

    I never ran my car without the H&R springs, so I don't have anything to compare my 60 fts. against. With drag radials and the front sway bar in place, I'm cutting mid 1.7 60 ft times which is pretty on par with those with looser suspension setups.

    Mustang Performance Work

    It probably won't be until 7-7:30 Friday night. We got Joe's car running last night, but we have a few issues that we have to work out tonight, so if you want to swing by and watch or lend a hand, let me know. :nice:

    Mustang Performance Work

    Sure. I'm not far from you (in Upper Marlboro) and can help you out with some of the work. Tonight I may be helping another Mustang owner finish up a cam install and starting on a clutch install, but Friday we will probably be changing out the intake gaskets on my car, so if you want to swing by...

    Backlog on BFG Drag Radials/Questions

    No problem. :) Is Capitol opening this Sunday? I didn't think they were opening up until March 7th, but if they will be open this Sunday, I will definitely be there...I'll be there the 7th definitely.

    Backlog on BFG Drag Radials/Questions

    Yep, just pull the stockers off, and put the Welds on. You won't need to switch anything else out on the rear. If you run Welds on the front, you'll need a spacer. As far as backspacing goes, you'll need 5.5" backspacing for 15x8 Welds...6.5" BS for 15x10.

    Prochamber vs. Dr Gas Xpipe

    I just switched from a ProChamber to a Dr. Gas X-pipe. I haven't dynoed it so I can't tell you about any power gains between the 2.

    Comp Cams 102600

    What part of VA are you in? If you're close you can just use my spring compressor tool that's already been modified.

    Comp Cams 102600

    Word of advice before you start the swap. Before you begin using that spring compressor tool, take a file or a small grinder to the inside "U" portion that will sit on top of the retainer. Reason being is that I will sometimes catch on the retaining locks and prevent you from pushing the spring...

    Comp Cams 102600

    8-10 hours! :rlaugh: That's what I thought going into the swap too. It's definitely worth it, but don't be surprised if it takes just a bit longer.

    Comp Cams 102600

    I just installed those cams and springs in my car this past weekend. It's a HUGE pain. The install isn't difficult, but it's exhausting and can frustrate you badly. My advise would be to have a shop do it, especially if you don't know your way around OHC engines too well. In order to do the...

    H&r clearance problems

    Yup. Most shops should be smart enough to use a 2x4 or something to raise your car up enough to get the lift supports up underneath. Any shop I've been to has used this method, and I've never had a problem.

    Mach 1 Break in?

    :lol: Mine had it slightly easy for the 7 miles I put on it during the test drive.
