    Who's Only Had 1 Mustang Since They Joined?

    Aunt purchased mine new in 1990. Rode around in kindergarten in it, and she gave it to me when I was 16. Been my only mustang I have ever owned. Came close to buying roller coupes, but never have.

    My Fox build

    It's from national parts depot. The 2 or 2 1/2" rise steel cowl hood. Fit pretty good. There were some minor flat spots that the bodyman used a dab of filler just to smooth up, but it fit real well and came out great. It's no longer a rolling chassis as the suspension and brakes are now ripped...

    My Fox build

    So a couple years ago I had a introduction of the front nose and driver fender to a guardrail in the rain, and what should have been a simple fix and go turned into an all out stripdown and rebuild. This is how she sits now. What do you guys think? Doing a 5 lug conversion, bullitt/cobra...

    Clip for temp control cable?

    Anyone know where I can find the clip for the temp control cable to attach it to the heat box? I ripped my dash out over a year ago, and now can't. Search NPD and LRS to no avail. Thanks.

    17x10 Saleen Ssc On Fox?

    Yea those were my original and still 2nd choice. I dunno if it's minor I can live with it but the car is a rust free car pretty straight and I really don't want to halfass it if I can.

    17x10 Saleen Ssc On Fox?

    Stock axle width, backspacing is 6.83 on a saleen ssc 17x10. Fenders are already rolled, shes just waiting for paint. Quad shocks I know will be gone. 275 will be planned tire width if it isn't too narrow for a 10in wheel. Just trying to avoid bashing the fenderwells in if I can.

    17x10 Saleen Ssc On Fox?

    Paint Problem

    Was it shot with rattle can or a gun? Some paints will not bond with a clear. Before you sprayed the clear, did the dried paint feel fairly hard or soft?

    Hard lesson on drag radials in the rain

    Well, tore her apart today and shes not gonna be that bad. Only problem I forsee is tweaking the driver fender end. Something got shifted there, and the door has a slight drag while shutting. Almost wondering if it got jarred loose and dropped down. Anyways, heres the carnage of the teardown.

    Hard lesson on drag radials in the rain

    Fixing to head out and take parts off. Gonna be fun lol. To SSP coupe, I drove with DR's for 2 years w/o problems. But when I came off that on ramp I guess I gave a little too much throttle or I hit a water puddle or something, and the ass end just really snapped out. Totally wasn't...

    stock cam or tfs 1 cam?

    It would be a nice little gain with the added head flow and intake. The stock cam is not a bad cam, but I really like the tfs 1 for a mild off the shelf cam. I would say since your already tearing the heads off, pop off the front cover, put a new timing set in, and enjoy a better suited cam...

    Hard lesson on drag radials in the rain

    I've always been lucky driving my car in the rain on drag radials, especially with my attitude, but after of a couple years of luck, last night bit me in the rear. Coming down the on ramp with was a swooping steep downhill ramp to the highway, I gave her a lil too much throttle before I...

    Rebuilding T-5, output snap ring won't fit!

    What is the ground width of the snap ring slot compared to your snap ring? Take the two measurements and see what you get. At a a glance, your mainshaft stackup doesn't look bad. I'll take a closer look tomorrow. Just be patient; many t5's I have screwed up from wanting it done quick. EDIT...

    Black magic fan popping fuses suddenly

    No I have not bench tested the fan. May be a start though. I didn't feel any but I will check closer. Wiring is my weak point, so I need to really look closer. 25 amp fuse. That was the one that came in the kit. I'll have to look into the VSC. Might be worth a shot. Thanks guys.

    Black magic fan popping fuses suddenly

    I've had a black magic fan for a bit now, used to not give me any trouble, but now it's just popping the fuse on the power cable instantly. I'm not a wiring guru by any means so I'm stumped. I have a 12v source for the thermostat for the fan in the fuse box in the car, running the big power...

    greensboro north carolina

    I'm from Asheboro, about 30 minutes south of greensboro. Dunno much about the car scene up there. High Point used to be the place until they had a huge sting about 2 or 3 years ago, impounded and sold at auction a lot of nice cars from street racing.

    t5 gurus, yet another tailhousing and shift fork issue

    I didn't mess with the linkages at all until I started putting it together and it locked out. I found a pic in an old post and tried to replicate it but it hasn't given me any luck. Heres a couple pics. Thanks.
