    Buying a foxbody

    Thanks, great information. I'll get back with what I find and, I'm sure, more questions. At the price he's asking I'm not expecting anything perfect, but I do basically want a driveable resto.

    Buying a foxbody

    I'm looking to buy a foxbody, but sadly am a complete retard with these cars. I've had several SN95's but no experience with these. I'm really looking for a notchback, but found a nice 85 t-top hatch in my area. Going to look at it tomorrow, any advice on what to look for or what questions to...

    Roush Free stock midpipe

    It's a long-shot, but I've got my old stock midpipe from my 03 sitting in the garage if anyone needs it. I switched it out and no longer need it. Free for anyone who wants to pick it up, I'm right outside of Tampa, FL.

    Roush Headlight buzzer

    yeah, that's what I need. I think about it a few times on my 45 minute commute, but by the time I get there I'm so happy I actually got a parking spot I forget about the lights. I'll have to check the fuses. I don't have a seat-belt noise either? The light on the dash panel blinks though. Oh...

    Roush Headlight buzzer

    Is there a retard buzzer for 99-04's? I leave the house when it's dark and the sun is up by the time I get to work so I'm constantly leaving my headlights on. I've been reminded a few times by people that pass my car in the parking lot, but yesterday I finally got the retard award and left them...

    Exhaust leak

    So I got my busted header stud out today. The guy damaged the manifold threads drilling it out, so he just used a 5/8" bolt to hold it in. Unfortunately, it's still leaking - not nearly as bad, but still leaking. The studs are shoulder-less, so I know that isn't the problem, and it's cranked...

    Exhaust shop in Tampa

    Yeah, but if they see it, they may comment....Ha, the peoples republic of Maine! My in-laws live there, so I know where you're coming from. My wife's cousin got pulled for a non-stock muffler.

    Exhaust shop in Tampa

    Can anyone recommend a good shop in or around Tampa that can remove a broken header stud - that won't give me crap for my prochamber? Thanks.

    O2 sensor orientation

    Stupid question, does the placement of O2 sensors matter (front to back?) When I put my prochamber on, I laid them out in the correct order, but some neighborhood kids came by and one of them moved them while I was under the car. I replaced them by color, but the front driver sensor doesn't...

    Roush Things I learned today....

    would it be easier to remove the manifold and try to drill it out that way? At least then if I get stuck, I could take it somewhere and pay to have it removed??????

    Roush Things I learned today....

    Nope, now It's still dirty and sounds like crap!

    Roush Things I learned today....

    Was in Hampton, but now I'm in Tampa. I haven't updated my profile yet. On another note, something else I saw - Didn't 03 S281's come w/ Borla's? The cat back I've got is Magnaflow...was this something used on some years, or an aftermarket add on by the previous owner?

    Roush Things I learned today....

    and wished I knew earlier: Installed my Prochamber today and thought I'd share the experience. Stuff I should have known - 1. An 03 Saleen is considerably lower than a 96 GT and while jackstands work, it's not the optimal situation. 2. Front driver O2 sensor doesn't have enough wire to reach...

    Roush Towing question

    Spederman - always look forward to your responses, not for what you say, but for your avatar. Anyway, you think 3 2x10's nailed together in steps placed under the end of the ramp would decrease the angle enough? I guess the only way to know for sure is to go by uhaul and look at the angle and...

    Roush Towing question

    So I decided to tow the Saleen down to FL behind a u-haul. Anyone else ever used one of U-haul's car carriers (all 4 wheels off the ground) to pull their Saleen? I wonder how bad the clearance is for those ramps? I know, it probably depends on how much my suspention has sagged, but I imagine I'm...

    Roush And you guys thought you seen some bad mustang clones

    I'm pretty upset that I didn't get the optional Saleen flaming speedo...:rlaugh:

    NXT and microfiber question

    Thanks Justin, I'll try those towels on her truck first :D . Hey, I was doing some searching and I read a post where someone said that they saw no difference in adding P21S over NXT (his was black also.) Shouldn't a carnuba over a polymer really enhance the depth / shine? Do you think it was...

    NXT and microfiber question

    I'm not going too crazy with the detailing until I move next month and get my garage, but I'm still want the stang to look good until then, so last weekend I did a quick once over. Wash - clay - 3M SMR - 3M Imper. Hand Glaze - NXT. I wanted to finish off w/ a couple of coats of Megs #26 but ran...
