    Mac or BBK header Opinion?

Im going to buy a running and driveable 94 Gt with some body damage and wiring problems next weekend for $1,800 and my plan is to swap the brakes onto my 89 fox then sell the engine and trans from the 94 gt. So far the extra things that...

    Adjustable Control Arms

    Well my springs are red, they look pretty thick, and create a really stiff ride so im positive they're not the stock springs that someone cut. (I'd like to drive a 5.0 fox with stock suspension so I could compare the handling to mine) I think im just going to buy these they should fix both of my...

    Adjustable Control Arms

    When I bought my car in Dec. 06 It had already been lowered with tokico springs and adjustable shocks. I dont know how much it was lowered and neither did the guy i bought it from so it was probably lowered before he owned it. One problem i have with the setup is that it looks lower in the...

    Think this thing is really worth $18,000

    I was thinking between $10-$12,000 is the most i'd pay, (for this particular one), and personally i'd put the original cobra rims back on it. But i'd still love to own an original 93 cobra someday. Im only 18 now so one of these isnt really within my budget, and my 89 5.0 is still keeping me...

    Think this thing is really worth $18,000

    I Was Looking at mustang 5.0's around seattle on craigslist, (which I do on a regular basis) as i live near seattle and came across this one. I didn't think this one was worth that much because its lightly modded, and has minor flaws. Or is it really worth 18,000 dollars...

    LIne Lock Installation

    yeah, its the right line. i have to put a line coming out of the proportioning valve to the input on the roll control, then make 2 lines out of the line lock and connect them separately to the two front lines and plug off the bottom port on the master cylinder where the left front line went.
