    what's the longest you can go without changing your oil

    FWIW...I do Amsoil and filter (religously) every 5K. Peace of mind. Plus, at 5k my old motor has used 1 quart and needs another..LOL.

    In Need of Exhaust Info Update Please

    Hey kids...can't really pinpoint the info I need. I hope you can help me? WHAT are the HP/TQ gains of running short tube headers and no cats? (**I'm in CA...willing to change mid-pipes back and forth, but not headers, so no full length tubes.**) I will build midpipes using some sort of...

    Is it safe for a Donut?

    I'll bet they would work fine. Speed ratings are applicable for sustained driving guys. Anyone remember when dragsters went 150+ on bicycle tires? In fact, I think it's a hell of an idea! Please post video!

    Painting Calipers

    A caliper painting kit? Heh-heh....ahhhhh....America. Sorry, just don't understand that. My guess is the paint SHOULD be fine. I just used 'high heat' spray paint ala Pep-Boys!

    WHAT LOWERING SPRINGS?

    Eibach Pro Kit with NO front isolators. I also chose KYB AGX adjustable shocks/struts. 4 way adjustment on the struts, and 8 way on the rears. THIS feature (on whatever shock brand) allows you to soften the ride for street cruising or stiffen it enough for some canyon carving and/or anything in...

    Wheres the weak link in our suspensions performance

    Shocks/struts dude...what do you have? You need something racy or adjustable for the street. You can really tune the handling/ride with the Eibachs/shock adjustments/tire pressures. Serious improvement I have my Mustang driving soooo much more neutral now...it really sticks and doesn't...

    Top speed with 410's

    I'll post here...WTF? I'm not a 'straight line' freak anyway so 1/4 mile runs alone just don't do it for me. So far I've seen 4800 RPM in 5th with my 3:73s. Calculator says.........148 MPH. My speedo said almost exactly the same thing....as far as I can remember....didn't look too hard. :D

    Vibration felt throughout whole car after 410's

    Best case...they simply didn't orient the ds properly when re-installing it. It needs to be installed in it's same position as before in relation to the front and rear yokes. Did they mark it? If not simply try rotating it 180* to start.

    hub bearings?

    I had to replace one on my 98...at 106k...it's a maintenance thing. They just won't last forever...occasionally one will go dry, that's when it needs replacement. BTW...it's truly easy and no big deal to replace them...buy from an auto parts store that sells good quality parts (cheaper than...

    King Cobra Clutch Kit

    Since you won't listen to reason....good luck with it. I was only trying to HELP a Mustang owner by sharing MY OWN experiences and those of others I have talked to. I hope your King Cobra does it for you. If you don't drive your car HARD, it might just be OK. Seriously....good luck bud!

    Where to shop?

    You're wromg. They fit PERFECTLY. I have one that has a carbon fiber background with just the word 'Stang' on it. The vinyl is not flat on the back. Look for ads by seller; 'sixthfloor'...he is the BEST!
