    Rims & Tire Q's

    Look around at places that sell used tires. You could probably get a set that will last you until you buy all new tires for not much cash. If you have the cash to get new tires right now, then buy some new tires for those rims. Also, since you'll begoing deep in the back.. Are you...

    need help with noise

    Get out on the road and up to the speed where it's the loudest. Then zig zag a little a few times, just enough to trasfer weight from one side to the other. See if it gets louder when you go to the left or the right. If it gets louder when you go one way than it does the other way then...

    Stock jack on a lowerd car?

    If it's the stock scissor jack it should fit under just fine. If the car is low enough that that jack won't fit under it then nothing will.

    How many watts is the factory electrical system?

    The Mach 460 is supposed to be 460watts The Mach 1000 is supposed to be 1000watts. And it's your cars stereo system, not it's electrical system.

    They'll bolt up but they just won't look right because of the offset. Fins a set from a 99-04. Don't bother with 05 & up.

    Oil

    It's more specific, I just want to amke sure that that's clear to anyone else who reads this thread. It's not M1 as a whole that didn't pass a test. ONLY the REGULAR M1 5w-30. The Extended Performance formula and the others were ok. I can't remember the exact thread(s) I read it in as it...

    Mustang making ticking noise

    Find a hollow pipe. Something like 1in. diameter PVC pipe or something like that that is kinda long. I know you said the exhaust has been thoroughly checked but... Have someone hold the engine at an rpm where you hear the ticking. Put one end of the pipe to your ear and run the pther end...

    Power problems

    Ditto on the above. The alt. voltage is internally regulated so just buy a new one.

    need some advice on the pos

    Find a set of stock PI heads & cams. Get them ported and throw them on. That'll give you a very nice increase right there. If that's not enough throw some nitrous or a blower on it and like said above, drop the rear gears to 3.55's

    Mustang making ticking noise

    Yes, it will speed up and slow down with RPM. Check the plugs and make sure they're seated properly. Also, I had quite a bit of valvetrain noise. I was using the rugular Mobil1 synthetic 5w-30 in the car with an FL820S filter. I switched to the Mobil 1 5w-30 Extended Performance formula at...

    will a ford dealer ..

    Find a local tuner that works with the SCT setups and ask them. They should be able to tell you how to do it or change it for you in a custom tune. You could also try giving SCT a call on their tech line and they might talk you through it.

    NPI 4.6 camshafts

    If I remember correctly, all the Non PI engine have pressed on gears. You can take the passenger side valve cover loose and lift it slightly to visually verify for yourself though. It's easy as long as you do the passenger side.

    ford racing cobra diff geaoil ?

    There's nothing specific that's different between the GT and Cobra tloks. I was using Mobil1 75-90 with 1/2 bottle of Ford friction modifier. I recently decided to switch to the 75-140 though, still with a 1/2 bottle of friction modifier. With the 75-140 I get much less rear gear noise than I...

    Oil

    I meant the M1 full synthetic also. Use the Mobil1 Extended Performancein the pic below instead of the regular M1 synthetic in the second picture. YES NO The reason I say this is because there have been some tests that found that the Regular 5w-30, which is still a synthetic...

    What happened to MustangMods.com?

    That sux. I had an account before they switched to the pay system. I didn't have to pay because I already had an account. Pay was only for new accounts. The odd thing is that all pics I've put in threads still work.

    Oil

    Ditto on this for the most part. However, I'd stick with 5w-30 M1, but buy the Extended Performance Mobil1. There have been some issues with the regular M1 5w-30 that I've read about. It not passing some of the tests it should pass and things like that so I switched to the EP formula. Stick...

    will a ford dealer ..

    Even if you have the tuner, and have the dealer install the gears, I wouldn't let them do anything with the tuner. Change it yourself in the parking lot before you head home.

    What happened to MustangMods.com?

    I think it got hacked. I can't even cancel the account if I want to but I don't pay anything for it anyway. I've sent an e-mail or two to the webmaster e-mail but haven't gotten a reply.

    Power problems

    Clean the battery terminals well and then stop at an Autozone. They'll check the charging & starting systems, and do a bettery test for free. Just make sure you stand there and watch them do it.

    Mustangs don't have a cabin air filter, but stuff can get sucked up from the pass. side floorboard.
