    heater core

    Sorry one more thing I know on some of the earleir fox bodies all you had to do to replace the heater core was to remove the glove box and one access plate whcih only took about an hour total. As for the 4.6 I can't say for sure but, I would imagine most of the dash comes apart. And one more...

    heater core

    Are you sure it's coolent leaking on the outside and not just the air condition condensation? But if your leaking coolant on the inside of the car it is most likely the heater core. Is your engine running any hotter than normal? A heater core leak can cause the car to overheat depending on how...

    calling all supercharged guys(or girls)

    Well, one thing about that is if the engine fails it fails ya know? You can look at that as a bad thing but, Though I'd prefer that it doesn't happen if it does thats just reason enough to get a low compression stroker worked into the finances. The car's gotta run right?:D I'm pretty much hell...

    calling all supercharged guys(or girls)

    Yes exactly I was talking about the compression increase from switching to the PI heads. I do have the PI intake though. Another thing is about a year from now I will be getting my NPI heads ported W/ bigger valves and 7 angle radius job. There is a guy in my town (Hearld from Port Pros) that...

    calling all supercharged guys(or girls)

    I have 3500 dollars to buy a blower with for my 96 GT Vert. And I will be doing so in the next week or so. So I need some advise. Right now I leaning toward the Vortech S-Trim kit ( non intercooled I cant afford it). So my car has just over 100000 miles on it and it does consume a little oil...

    Easy Bolt-on Headers

    sorry man no such thing as an easy header install on a 2v. Doing my hedman headers sucked. But I dont have a lot of patence so maybe It will go better for you. It's a good investment though and does add some good power for the longtubes.

    Ford racing supercharger

    OK I think another legitimate question for us 96-98 guys. What if we have the engine with out the PI heads but do have the PI intake using the intake adapters. I would think the reason Ford recomends the 96-98 cars to have PI heads is because the runners coming from the Supercharger ( it is...

    Ford racing supercharger

    Dont know If this has been discussed before but would this SC kit work on a 96 mustang with a PI head swap? And what is the max PSI you can get out of it. I'm assuming it dosent have a intercooler correct? I'm messmerized by the stealth look of it and bang for the buck. Didnt you say you spent...

    Question about PI cams

    Well I can't get the guy to answer my question. Should I just wait and get some other cams? What if they were windser cams would they still be usable? Also Randy If I was to get some parts from you how would I go about doing that? Thanks, Clint

    Question about PI cams

    Ok so I found an excellent deal on some used PI cams online. They only include the cams though. They dont have the gear or sproket for the timing chain. Is this a big deal? Can I use my cam gears? By the way my car is a 96 and they will be going on NPI heads. What do yall think?

    went to the dyno today...

    The place I went to used a Dyno jet. My car has a 5 speed stick tranny. Honestly I couldnt really justify lying down money for a new forged shortblock right now. I will eventually when the current motor craps out on me. PI heads and some aftermarket cams will be finding a new home under my hood...

    went to the dyno today...

    Well I'm 280 so that definitly dosent help. I guess I failed to mention the subwoofers I have. And 2 boxes of tools I carry around at all times. But that is kinda heavy huh? About the HP I was really hoping for about 230-240.

    went to the dyno today...

    I'm quite disapointed by the numbers. 96 Mustang GT Vert' 3844# with me in it. 211.7 HP @ 4900 265.9 TQ @ 3700 I know races arent won at the dyno, I just thought the car had more for what I have on it. I have done fenderwell CAI, 80mm C&L MAF, 70mm TB, PP intake plenum, PI intake...

    suggestions for the best MAF meter for a bolt on 96 GT

    Yall guys really dont think I could squeeze out 5 HP from a new MAF? Thats a little discourageing. Well I do need to replace my factory one. I cut out the factory air foil in the housing not knowing that it would mess up the metering of air.

    suggestions for the best MAF meter for a bolt on 96 GT

    My tuner said I could pick up about 5 to 7 Hp and torque on my car with a good meter. Could I get some suggestions for people with aftermarket MAF's. It does have to work with my fenderwell CAI kit. I was leaning towards Lightning meter and staying with my factory electrical module instead of...

    JET mass air meter

    Well it's not for the ease of tuning. My tuner said I could pick up 5 to 7 HP and tq with a better flowing air meter. What about the lightning mass air and use the module from my car instead of using the new one with the meter? Or will that mess up the metering?

    Severe idle problems after TB/Plenum/O/R X-pipe install

    I had the same issues when I did my Intake plenum. I turned out to be a vacuum line that I had accidently cracked during installation and a faulty TPS sensor. As for your Xpipe, I the rear O2's were a nightmare to get fixed and keep me from getting my car inspected for a year and a half. I tried...

    JET mass air meter

    Has anyone used one of these. Are they compareable to any others. I'm looking to get a new mass air meter and I can get one of these for a good price.
