    Oil leak location help

    Use gravity to your benefit. Keep cleaning up the oil running down until you track it up and where it's coming from. Possibly get a jack and some stands so you can get under there when it's running. Just don't do it alone. I hate to say this, but it looks like you may have gotten the shaft...

    Tire and Suspension issues

    Depends what you have around you. That's not common knowledge for the average mechanic. I'd vote Mustang shop first, but any performance shop/body shop should be able to help.

    New interior panels

    White face gauges? I'm not sure where to go from here.

    Crashed vortech...

    I don't know much about them, but I personally would have it rebuilt prior to install. I would hate to have it go to :poo: during dyno tuning or have it mess up my engine. Just my .02 cents.

    Is my suspension suppose to be this harsh?

    I've always heard they are the best. Never could fork over the cash for them, and I'm not a fan of buying used suspension parts.

    Is my suspension suppose to be this harsh?

    I upgraded to the blues after my stock ones went bad. Handles and rides much better. Then again, I'm comparing to worn out stock.

    New interior panels

    The painted parts look good, but not a fan of how it goes with everything else. Looks like it needs something. Any other plans for the interior?

    Transmission plans in order.. NOW FO DA POWA!

    LMAO at the 4.6 reaching over 400 hp NA. This isn't an LS motor that responds well to bolt ons. You will need FI. I think you need to do more reading. There's no reason to get forged rods and pistons without changing out the crank. High performance ECU? I should really get this to add mad...

    Head casting number...

    I highly doubt it. If it was 91-92, that would mean it was from the Lincoln Town car giving you a whopping 190 hp. Unless they took the heads off, had a port job done, and then installed...

    315/35/17 hits quads

    If you flip them and they still hit, they obviously need removed. A good set of LCA's will more than compensate for no quad shock.

    Tire and Suspension issues

    Tubular K members are not the easiest thing to install. You may want to have that looked at and make sure it is done right. I'd be willing to bet that's where your problems are starting. Half an inch off on one side will really throw everything off.

    Help lowerin my car

    Depends on how low you plan on going. My car had C Springs and the stock shocks on it when I bought it. It rode fine.

    getting new suspension needs suggestions

    Not needed. Those kits are normally garbage anyways.

    getting new suspension needs suggestions

    Keep in mind future plans for the car. You normally have to pick between Street/autocross and drag strip. I have the Ford C Springs and Tokico blues. Ride is very nice, but just a touch too low for PA. Too many pot holes here.

    mach 1 automatic

    Agreed. Too high. The car's 10 years old. Also keep in mind that very low mileage can be a bad thing depending on how it was stored.

    Can I drop the tranny without pulling the headers?

    IIRC, MAC is the only company that you can remove the tranny with them on the car. All others must be removed.

    6.8l swap oil pan

    OP: I don't think this is a very popular swap to be done. I'd be willing to bet you will have to fabricate your own parts.

    6.8l swap oil pan

    It's already been done. It's too heavy and pricey to make it worth it for the average guy. If you had the extra stuff laying around and wanted to do something different, it would be a fun project. http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/coupes/112_0308_ford_mustang_boss_350_v_10/viewall.html
