    Best repair manual

    I usually buy a Haynes AND a Chilton's manual for a car I plan on keeping around for a while. What one book doesn't have, the other often does. Between those two books and Autozone's free repair guides, I usually find what I'm looking for.

    Reaching out to fellow manual trans drivers

    I did the same thing, except I ended up unhappy with my clutch purchase. It's clattery when my foot is off of it at idle, and it's REALLY stiff. It did take me a few weeks to get used to it again though. Once you hit that break-in period after getting used to it, you will love the...

    A few new changes

    Man, that reminds me of Pughman's car now :D I had 4.56s in my last 'stang, and they were insane! I drove them for a full 3 days with the stock 245s out back before I decided that the car was going to kill me unless I paid for more traction. Those Racestars are about my favorite drag...

    Heh, sorry. I assumed that would have been the case, but if the OP wasn't planning on running a wideband, the A/F gauge will be nothing more than a light show.

    4 10 gear might be causing heating problem...

    You're one of the first people I've heard say they hate that gear ratio with the 4.6. Those cams love some good RPM, and I think they are the second best modification I've done to my car. 3,000 isn't even into the sweet spot yet! I've never had an issue with my car running hotter after the...

    Whats my towing capacity range gonna be on my 03gt in theory

    If you really want to be able to do this reliably in your Mustang, the best thing I could suggest would be some adjustable rear control arms like the ones I have with stock springs on them, paired up with some air shocks. After all of that, the car will handle like the Flintstone mobile, but...

    If these gauges are to be closely monitored for critical information, I would go for the AFR gauge and the fuel pressure. Who cares to know how much boost they are making when the air fuel ratio is pegged the whole time on lean. I'd rather know the safety related stuff first.

    a what is this? and can i move that? question

    As mentioned before, that box is an IAC muffler to get rid of a small amount of noise. It doesn't change the way it runs at all to ditch it. As for a battery relocate, I've seen some turbo kits for the 2v that move the reservoir over to the fender where the battery sat. I've also...

    Laser red and black two toned

    I've seen a few 'stangs photoshopped like that a few times around here, but I completely agree about it being too Foose-y. Slap some ugly as sin rims on it and I'd be convinced it was on Overhaulin'.

    loudest set of flowmasters???

    I still can't see how my 10 series mufflers aren't the loudest. Right on the Flowmaster website, it says: "Single Chamber mufflers. Intended for customers who desire the loudest and most aggressive sound they can find. Because these mufflers are so aggressive, they are recommended only for...

    photo shop please :)

    Not bad, but I think those red rings make the wheels seem smaller for some reason... I'd like to see those wheels with just the sides of the spokes in black, maybe also the inner part of the lip. Sort of like the Mach 1 wheels.

    photo shop please :)

    Leave them polished! I'm all about black wheels, but I believe they at least need a polished lip or something to break up the monotony. I think your wheels look great as they are. If you're interested in changing the look without shelling out a ton of dough, grab some wheel spacers for the...

    What control arms are you running?

    I run these arms, and although they made a world of difference, I would be more than happy to switch to something MUCH quieter. I've done a million things to stop these from squeaking to no avail. With my locker paired up with these huge tires, whenever I make slow, tight turns, the wheels...

    Blowing coil packs

    Once I threw a good set of COPs on my car after the crap Accels, I had to run it hard a few times to clear up the idle. It did run a lot better after that, but I ended up changing the plugs anyway and all was well. I'd recommend some Seafoam, as well as Lucas fuel treatment. Perhaps even...

    The horror, the horror.....

    Ah, I hate Ford Road :( I have State Farm, and when my last 'Stang was totalled out, they didn't bat an eye at any of my mods. However, I remember we used to have a member here that had a yellow Cobra, and he had worried about his subframe connectors being an issue with his insurance after...
