    You have to be more specific, location of the vibration would be helpful.

    Opinions On Intake Manifolds

    I got the Performance Products intake here's what I noticed; loss of torque, but increase in horsepower, the intake gets hotter, but meh. That intake COULD cause some idle issues, but I got Bama to tune for it, made a world of difference after. It actually made a more horse power at the top...

    8.8 Rear

    Personally I would get a rebuild kit and change out the gears and bearings and so on and so forth; peace of mind if you will. Leaky seals are no fun.

    Possibly Getting A Used Stang...opinions Wanted!

    Surging R.P.M.'s after clutch engagement. The car doesn't cut off in second gear. The clutch doesn't sit on the hills while clutch is engaged and emergency brake is disengaged. Are ways to tell if the clutch is about to fail. Some clutch's won't show any symptoms, all of a sudden, they will...

    Start with the suspension. Trust me you will thank me later. Lower control Arms, Full Length Rails, Sway Bars front and back, FRESH BUSHINGS for the entire front in. Fresh Spring Isolators. You can get a decent suspension without breaking the bank. Wish I had started with the suspension first.

    Opinions On Intake Manifolds

    Yep I understand, had to learn the hard way with the Dorman intakes, the intake started to leak almost right away, and the those glued in brass threaded receivers had me stranded, on the Charlotte highway with gasoline everywhere in the engine bay. At least you are going to use the Ford...

    Opinions On Intake Manifolds

    I don't know dude. Save for a metal intake, my opinion is plastics and resins are not meant to be under constant heat and pressures at the gauge these intakes are made to. I would save for a Performance Products intake. The Trick flows are overpriced for something that's only gonna net 10...

    Edelbrock intake needs Edelbrock parts. There is an adapter for the lower intake to use aftermarket upper intake. You need Edelbrock fuel rails as well. Yea man, other then turbo or supercharge, the bolt on parts are for fun, maybe throttle response and sound is an extra. Mainly, 4.6 liter...

    Brake Problems

    Yea man, firs, great job at not being on the 5 o'clock news for killing the Autozone employees, it pays to know what can go wrong with fixing cars. New and name-brand parts takes the guessing out of our sociopathic hobby.

    Intake Manifold Fitment Question

    Spend the extra cash and get a metal intake, those plastic lower-intakes still leak. That was my correct speculation when Ford motor company did patch job on the intake, that was basically what the coolant cross-over was. Those metal intakes will outlive its usefulness and most people in...

    Possible Misfire?

    Start with the easy stuff, Clean MAF, add some Seafoam, Fuel Filter, higher Octane of gas, change gas stations, air filter, Check PVC system, make sure there is not an abundance of blow-by going through the system. Pull the Cold air intake to see if the PVC is functioning. Blow-by fouls a lot...
