    cant find a part

    Finally got my project car! I will create a thread about that soon with details and pics. But had a question.... Checking out everything in the car as far as electrical goes. Everything seems to work except for the fuel door switch and then the map light. I think it might just be the bulb but...

    stupid question

    Kinda stupid question but is there any law against parking your car in the street with a car cover on? I live in California so Im sure it might be different from state to state, but maybe someone knows. The reason why I ask is, I think I finally found my project car (which I will post pics...

    saleen wing install

    Just bought a saleen wing, it looks awesome! It came with all the hardware needed, etc but no instructions. I know its a straight forward install, but it came with these black strap looking things (not talking about the zip ties) and I have no idea what those are for. Does anyone know or has a...

    Catco h-pipe??

    I dont have one but I would say dont bother with it. The pipes are 2.25- so its bascially the same as stock. Im pretty sure they do have 02 sensor holes. I thought about gettting one but instead got a magnaflow x-pipe with cats. The magnaflow was more expensive but well worth it. You can always...

    project opinions/help....

    I have been looking at local ads/online classifieds for a 89 or 90 GT. Haven't really found anything or seen any good deals. Anyways, the other day I had to drop off some parts to a customer. On the way over there I saw a 5.0 parked on the side of a house, so I decided to leave a note saying if...

    Need an h-pipe

    I say just buy a aftermarket h or x pipe with cats. Around here (cali) I've seen stock h pipes going for nearly 200 bucks. Why pay that much for stock stuff, when the cats are probably bad anyways. You will still have an issue passing smog. I barely passed smog when I had my stock h pipe on...

    Saleen or Cobra?

    Personally- I think the saleen wins in the looks department. But of course the 03 takes it power wise. Plus future power can easliy be made on the 03. My biggest issue right now is affording the payments. The saleen is going to be around 11k. I have cash saved up from when I sold my 67 months...

    Saleen or Cobra?

    Im going to call the guy with the cobra tmrw and see what he will do on the price for me.... I did go look at the 2001 Saleen. Had my doubts if it was real or not, but called saleen and they ran the vin for me and said it was. It is a nice car, good silver paint and body, it has 4.10 gears...

    Saleen or Cobra?

    Yea man, I love the looks of a saleen a little over the cobra. But power wise, the cobra is sweet- 390 stock, add exhaust and a few other things and have a crazy street machine. Obviously the saleen will be cheaper, including car insurance. The saleen is in the 11-13k range. The cobra seems like...

    Saleen or Cobra?

    Just curious to see what you guys think..... I was looking to buy another 5.0 this past week but someone got to it before I could. Then I've been thinking about going for a 67 coupe cause I use to have one. Then I was thinking of just building a 331 for mine and stuff but time is an issue...

    Hey, im in need of a carfax....... looking at the car tmrw night so hopefully someone has one. 1fabp42e2kf254691 Its a 89 GT, looks pretty good but have only seen it in pics. The paint is faded some and it has the usual scratches. It does have a small dent on the rear drivers quarter-...

    saleens...

    Well, I spent a lot of time planning a 331 build up for my 93 GT. But I recently moved- again. The new place doesnt have a garage and I dont really have much space for building an engine inside, plus I think the landlord would kill me. I'm hoping I'm only here for no more than 6 months. Anyways...

    anyone with carfax want to help me?

    ^ what do you think of that report? So, if it doesn't say salvage title anywhere it should be clean? He did mention that he bought the car with a loan and something about the bank having the pink slip until its paid, does this sound legit?? He's asking 3400/obo for it. Of course Im going to go...

    turbo

    Thats why I wanted to ask..... its not harsh at all. I was leaning towards a s/c with low psi anyways just because I think a turbo will put out too much power for a stock block. Still considering a B&G single turbo though..... Maybe wait on that for a 408 in the future
