    Vacuum Leak inside dash (control panel)

    I have a loose vacuum hose in my dash - it's a black hose with a yellow stripe on it, coming out of the function selector knob on the A/C control panel. All of the other vacuum hoses that come from the same tree connect to another harness behind the glovebox - but this one goes off somewhere...

    custom cai

    You're confusing the silencer with the air box (or maybe just unfamiliar with the fox body?). The silencer (on a fox) is a completely separate piece that's located entirely inside the fenderwell, directly opposite the airbox - you can't see it from the engine bay. Even without the silencer...

    How to replace starter?

    :OT: You can buy repair kits - and even new doors from 50resto......I'll let you know how well it works. Mine was actually working until one day when I was crawling out from under my dash after installing a new clutch quadrant and fell back....guess where my hand landed. :mad: I was so...

    The stock air box pulls air from inside the fenderwell - not from the engine bay.... BUT - a conical filter will give you more air-flow than the stock-style flat panel filter, and you SHOULD put the conical filter in the fenderwell instead of inside the engine bay. If you upgrade the MAF...

    If you have the old bolts, just take them to the store with you and match them up.

    255's on 17's: will they rub in front?

    Thanks guys. I really wanted to keep my tires the same size on all 4 corners so I could rotate them - and I was looking for a compromise. I definitely don't want anything narrower than 255 on the back.....I guess I'll just suck it up and go with 245/40's on the front and 265/40's on the back...

    255's on 17's: will they rub in front?

    I just ordered some 93 Cobra style rims - 17X8.5 for my 88 GT. My car is lowered about 1" in the front and I have stock replacement A-arms. Will I be okay with 255/40 tires up front or will they rub?

    Taller rear springs?

    Are you basing this all on looks? What type of driving do you normally do? Any drag-racing/corner carving or just a daily 'point a to point b' driver?

    Gas Prices

    Of course their profits are increasing - more and more people are buying cars and we're all consuming more and more fuel. You can't judge them by their total profit. It's only natural that larger industries will produce larger profits What you have to consider is the net profit per dollar...

    Do you have any kind of project thread or website for that project? Sounds pretty interesting.

    Steering Wheel upside down

    I just installed a new AGR steering rack and Maximum Motorsports solid steering shaft, but didn't realize until I started to re-attach the steering shaft to the input shaft from the steering wheel that they only fit together one way. So, when I finished, my steering wheel was exactly 180...

    94 Cobra engine into an 88 GT...

    Thanks for the input. The more I think about this, the more I think I should just wait and buy a better HCI for my current block. The only reason I'm considering it is because I need to do the MAF conversion anyway, and the Cobra engine only has 70K miles on it, I know it's in good shape, I...

    94 Cobra engine into an 88 GT...

    I'm going to be doing this swap within the next couple of months and would love to hear everyone's opinions on what I might possibly need to make it work. My car (engine) is bone-stock, speed density. I'm going to be taking the computer, fuel injectors and MAF along with the engine from a 94...

    145 top speed

    The original question was about a t5 transmission - not the chassis, which is probably the only thing stock about that car. :rolleyes:

    Wobble in front tires- steering rack??

    You should definitely replace your rotors and pads if you have the cash. And the other ball joint as well - if one was bad, the other one's probably not too far behind. Is the whole car shaking or just the steering wheel? Can you feel it when riding in the passenger seat? Have you checked...

    Who would win? Similar combo

    His engine is breathing better than yours, but the AOD is going to hurt him big time. He must really suck at shifting if he was willing to trade his T5 for an AOD. As long as you can drive, you'll probably win. Wow - with those times, I thought maybe you were racing on top of a mountain...

    Don't forget to post a thread - preferably with a video - when you race that clueless dude in the 04 Cobra.
