    I want to clean up my stock engine bay.

    I agree. It isn't a mod that I would do but I have a real appreciation for people who think like this and put this much tlc into their efforts. It's reflects how they feel about their car, others is a plus but not necessary. Nice job! For those of us that only know enough about...

    Painted Calipers...Cheers & Jeers

    Awesome! Just to summarize, Overall, the Duplicolor kit was pretty good. Make sure you buy a quality brush before you start. Make sure everything to be painted is VERY clean. Make sure to tape everything your brush might hit. I used a cardboard template for the circle areas. It was...

    Need Ideas 4 for a Tribute to my Grandma

    What did she like? What was she in to? Example: My Gandma was Canadian, so for me, I would get something like a Maple Leaf. When someone mentions Canada, she's my first thought. When someone mentions her, what's your first thought?

    Painted Calipers...Cheers & Jeers

    You did a great job and they look really nice! :nice: When you do the rotor hats, take some pics. Also, if you don't mind, please identify the different parts so those of us that aren't that parts knowledgable will know what you're referring to and not start painting something else. :rolleyes...

    Painted Calipers...Cheers & Jeers

    Probably a good decision. If I had almost any other color, I would have chosen a different caliper paint. As it was, I was really tempted to buy the yellow just to stand out. :)

    Painted Calipers...Cheers & Jeers

    It was suggested to me while i was doing this that I shoud paint the brackets black. While it was tempting, I wasn't sure what paint to use or how the outcome would be, so I opted not to for now. With the feedback here though, I may go ahead and try it.

    I'm not familiar with that. Please explain.

    Painted Calipers...Cheers & Jeers

    Though I will eventually upgrade the brakes, with only 9000 miles on the car I knew it may be long time before that happens. I've seen this done on other cars but was fairly underwhelmed with the results. Eventually, I just decided to give it a try and thought I'd share the experience in case...

    2002 s281 SUPERCHARGER on 2002 gt?

    Sorry if this is stating the obvious, but if I remember correctly, you're going to have to put your stock pullies back on too.

    Best Way to Drain Fuel Tank (And Other Questions)

    My apologies if I missed this earlier, but why aren't you just submitting this to insurance?

    How many here belong to a Mustang or other car club?

    Clubs tend to look for a commitment (naturally), which by its own definition, is a contrast of why I have the car. My car=My fun. Period. If you're in a position where you meet a bunch of folks that interest you and are willing to commit to whatever they're looking for, time, events, etc. go for...

    Love my Stang, but don't know how you guys who drive them daily do it

    Be careful with that. Daily drivers need to be above everything else, dependable, right? As a rule, I've found the farther you start to get <12 sec the more the scale begins to tip from dependability toward maintenance.

    Love my Stang, but don't know how you guys who drive them daily do it

    I believe it because mine is also. when I do drive it to work, I only park where no door ding is even possible. It hasn't got a single flaw in almost nine years...ain't gonna start now. I sacrifice an '08 hyundai for that duty. :D

    Love my Stang, but don't know how you guys who drive them daily do it

    I couldn't drive mine daily the way it is. Mine stays set up for the track, but I do use it as a fill in vehicle for when one of the DD's is in the shop. Gotta love adjustables. My first car was a stang and 35 years later I'm still driving one, but I'd trade you my right gonad for that 'cuda...

    I did it. I bought an 04 mach 1

    Congrats on picking up the mach. They're beautiful cars and always head turners. Personally, if it was me (which it was in '03) I'd skip the blower idea. By design, they're collector cars and putting a blower on it may well make it less valuable. I know alot of people don't care, but like I...

    supercharger

    I run a Vortech S trim with an Vortech A/W intercooler and I absolutely love it. I can get the temp down much farther by icing the reservoir than I ever could with ambient air. The general school of thought is the Paxton A/A works better with a Vortech, and while they are excellent, I disagree...

    Another stanger lost to street racing

    Of all the places I've lived, they have the right idea here in Vegas by opening up the track around twice a month. If you have a license and insurance, for $10 you can run all the grudge matches you want in a controlled setting. I know when you have >300 hp it's hard to stay cool sitting...
