    1991 Lx Convertible Top Header Weatherstripping Install

    Some of their stuff is OK, the PIA part though is spot on. Lots of adjusting afterward. I will warn of the piece that runs down the side of the windshield against the door glass. This piece is horrible. Either find a NOS part or plan to cry uncontrollably for days until you give up and start...

    Need Some Help

    The turbo swap is a piece of cake. None of it is hard if you can follow instructions. It's a whole lot easier than a v8 swap especially if you don't have a complete donor car. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Need Some Help

    Those are two of the best sites for swap info. I just finished my swap a couple of months ago. Wasn't too bad at all. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    What Can I Do To Improve The Performance Of My 2.3l Mustang?

    Turbo swap! I did the whole swap cheaper than a set of heads on a 5.0. No inexpensive mod on the 2.3 will do much on its own. Gears never hurt though :) Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Lowering springs for the 2.3

    Here's one. I added the 17" cobra r's when I swapped over the tc front brakes and rear end. This pic is still with the 14's and stock springs and shocks. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    Digital Tuning 87 into 91 Stang Turbo Computor

    I've heard great things about Stinger and his pimp. If you're just putting your swap together it may be wiser to get a stock replacement CPU and get things running right before trying to go stand alone. I'm in the middle a swap on my '89 right now. It should be easier to know the CPU is right...

    newbie with 4 cyl.

    Check out boport.com for your cam he knows his stuff. You'll have a SD setup instead of maf. Either way at 400hp you'll probably be looking at a stand alone setup like a PIMP or mega squirt and scrapping the speed density stuff. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    1984 Gt Turbo Wont Start

    Do you have the timing marks or are you using the string method? Best bet may be to find btdc and start from scratch. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2

    84 SVO NO START

    I'm pretty new at this stuff, but I've been learning to rule out the easy stuff first so I'll just throw this out there. Is the pump working? Fuel pressure? Have you pulled any codes? I ask the obvious because last summer I tried replacing my fuel pump only to realize I had unplugged the relay...

    4 cyl vs GT suspension

    I just put everything from an '88 Turbo Coupe on my 4cyl a couple of weeks ago. Should be the same stuff as a GT. I haven't set it on the ground yet or gotten it aligned, but it all fit together nicely. Doesn't sound normal to me.

    Let Me Tell You How Much It Sucks To Remove Front Springs

    I just did this a couple of weeks ago. I think I wept in my sleep before it was all over. Tried to drop the a-arm but the front bolt seized in the metal sleeve. It would spin inside the bushing but wouldn't come out. Finally had to resort to using the torch. Make sure your steering rack is out...

    Turbo swap has begun!

    I went ahead and kept the stock cam for now. May go with a nice Boport cam in the future.

    Console And E-brake Gasket Thingy Issues.

    I just got the boot from redline in the mail today. Probably be a week or two before I get to put my interior back in. My pegs are all broken off, so I reckon I'll try the velcro method first.
