    Post-cam job Valvetrain noise....help

    First a 2001 does not have lifters or rockers, the engine is a SOHC which means it have lash adjusters and cam followers. 1. So for the Trickflow lash adjusters, did you sock them for a couple of hours in engine oil before install? 2. Did you degree the cams? If not, well that tick could be...

    Odd Misfire/Slip

    I don't know if this would help at all, but do you have more than 1 key? I ask because I have heard of stories where the key has gone bad causing the PATS to go haywire. I know you can tune off the PATS with a custom tune or by FORD for new keys. Might want to try to disable, the PATS system and...

    bye bye gt :(

    If you think about ever getting your money back out of a car, you are in the wrong frame of mind. I am sorry, but cars unless you buy something that is rare you will hardly ever get you money back out or break even. If you want a Mach fine, but changing do to "get you money back out of...

    i have an idea.. need peoples opinions

    :barf: Spray painting it flat black in the back yard would look terrible not to mention probably make more work for the body shop down the road costing more money. Do a Google search of the area where you live, and read some reviews online on what people thought of the shops. Narrow down the...

    Traction Control Issue????

    It has nothing to do with 235 or 275, that is the number of how wide your tires are in mm. The height number is the next number over, can be anything from 30 to 50+, that number refers to the tire to rim distance in mm. The last number of coarse is the size of your rim. Most likely...

    What does it take to beat those new camaro ss's

    +1 to the drive mod, I have seen so many "fast" cars at the track post very slow times. Good driver, is worth a lot of HP and I heard the new Camaros aren't the easiest cars to launch with the IRS.

    Paint, Saleen Kit...DONE!!

    Sweet, love the color combo. If you don't mind me asking, how much did it cost? I assume you stayed with white right and just added the black and redid the entire car with a fresh respray.

    Plug keeps walking...

    I though you were only suppose to change the plugs when the engine was cold, ice cold? If I were you I would buy some new plugs and add some anti-seize to them and see if that helps. How are you tighting them? Suppose to be between 11 and 14ft-lbs IIRC. Could you use high temp lock tight? I...

    My Rant on my driving skills

    Maybe, this is the first time in a long while that I have missed a gear. I have trouble with getting my timing right when speed shifting because I was shifting too early before and tending to scratch the gears. I never have ever missed a shift road racing, type of drive not street racing which I...

    Painted my Car, sort of.....

    Why would I get rims first? That would be very dumb seeing if I bought rims then painted the car I might not like the way the rims would look with that color combo. Plus whats wrong with the stock rims? At 17lbs each they are lighter than almost anything available on the after market.

    My Rant on my driving skills

    Ya ifs definitely me, unfortunately. The clutch is adjusted great and the car shifts really good at any rpm, except when I rush things. The thing is I thought I was good, seeing as I have driven manual for 6 years now. I think I just rushed things and lacked precision, because I did a pull...

    My Rant on my driving skills

    So today, after my big test I decide to blow off steam and take the stang out since it hasn't moved in over a week. So I cruise out to the coast and decide to try out this new driving road my buddy in the car club told me about. I head out that direction and once I got on the road it was...

    Lots of Awesome New Pictures! (Post-Suspension)

    Love the stance, though about a Bullitt spring kit for my car when I do the subframes. What is the difference in spring rate if anyone knows compared to stock. I am looking at H&R race springs or Bullitt springs.

    Painted my Car, sort of.....

    Thanks guys, and I am still undecided on the color if I decide to paint the car. I am leaning towards getting the bumpers fixed, getting the roof repainted and having the whole car wet sanded smooth. Then once that is all done, have 3 to 4 coats of clear sprayed on to seal and protect...

    Painted my Car, sort of.....

    Thanks guys and RedDaemon for making the pictures bigger. I have not really thought too much in depth about how the whole paint process would go yet, just was bored yesterday and played around with photo shop. I have some questions that thanks to your comments, came about. How would I paint...

    Local, I thought about sending ti to Halon Motorsports, DD or Promotion but didn't want to pay for the shipping and I was impatient. I got a recommendation from another stangnet member on where to go and I worked out great.
