    Rio Red Progress Thread...

    Both of you guys who are affraid of winter; fear not. Blizzaks make the GT one of the best winter vehicles I have ever had the pleasure of driving through the fluffly stuff. I prefer to drive my GT over my wife's 4x4 Xterra in the snow/ice because of the added capabilities of the Blizzak's...

    post your supercharged/turbo engine bays

    I bought and built it in 2000. Not too bad for going on ten years since I've put her together. Marriage, house, motorcycles have sapped the funds from the 5.0.

    Reliability Question

    Heads and cam, as long as you stay streetable, won't give you any problems whatsoever. It's the common wear items that matter; belts, hoses, rad, thermostat, fuel pump, filter, ignition system, braking and charging systems that can come back to haunt you on a long trip. Foxes are getting...

    I'm Bored with Mustangs...

    To me it sounds like you have talked yourself into an 05+ model, but the question is, for how long will you truly be happy with it? Mods aren't exactly cheap on those and it seems that just about everything requires a tune. Bottom line is you're still playing with a 281 that won't pull out of...

    other drivers reacting to presence of 5.0

    I used to think it was a 5.0 thing until I started riding a bike as well. Anything cool, people in ordinary cages feel the need to make themselves feel better by going faster, driving more aggressive than the person on or in the cool toy. Most cars don't have the soul that most of our...

    berryman b12 chemtool

    I use it to dip motorcycle carbs with; great product with great results. I cannot speak for how it would work through the fuel system of an automobile, but I bet it would do a good job.

    Spring is here,here come the idiots

    It's when you get the young guy on the Sporty with drag pipes next to you hammering on it trying to get you to take the bait. The best part is when they are twisting so hard their elbow its pointing towards the front of the bike all the while the goon was staring over at me. Like I'm...

    ponys for a set of weld racing rims?

    I ditched my welds in favor of ponies. Why? Sure it was cool to have tubed and screwed ET streets, but I soon grew very tired of having to replace them every season. By 2000 miles they had cords showing. I also was tired of seeing just how crappy these rims were for balancing. I've never...

    My new DD

    You get my vote for a best DD. You can put all new tires on it for probably under 150 installed, park the thing anywhere and never have to worry about anybody messing with it. If you get a door ding, that just adds character. Plus, when you are getting on it and you see a cop, there's a...

    FINALLY BOUGHT A NOTCH

    I'd agree, in Chicagoland, you'd be hard pressed to find a clean notch for 5200 with no mods, add an S-trim and a few other bolt-on's and you are over ten.

    weird issues with TPS and anderson PMS tuner

    Most guys that I know unplug their 02's (usually swap with wide band ---like fast dual wideband) and disconnect the IACV, disconnect the battery, clear the KAM, start the car and tune it that way via dual wide band. Drive it around and tune it as you go. Most of them also get the A/F ratio...

    What Brand Tire Is Everyone Running?

    Firestone Firehawk Wide Ovals. Great wet trac and they become super sticky in the summer as well.

    82 GT resto-mod IRS

    Have someone adapt the proper clevis ends to the '82 cables then. There has to be a cable company somewhere close to home that could do this!

    Back to the 5.0 scene

    It all depends on his geographic. IF you compare the NY area to remote Kansas, you'll find around a 2G gap in prices.

    Port the AFR's or Not?

    Port the AFR's or Not?

    Inspection of the Typhoon reveals the cost savings. The intake is nowhere near as cleaned up as its Edelbrock counterpart. The port openings are irregular and inconsistent in size, and there is considerable casting flash in the runners. Visually it appears the mating surfaces are square, but we...

    What would you pay???

    I felt like I was reading a rag or something, here Tipsy post up a clean rust free trunk car, for what I would consider to be a fair price for a good, clean Fox slate that he could drive home if needed and everyone was like oh well that's just too much. My point was that talk is cheap, post...
