    Door Panel Armrest Headache

    That price is nuts, I shipped a qbert arcade machine from nj to nevada for $450 to someone. With that said, he should either pay up or send the seller a message telling him to keep the door panel and just send the armrest at the full buy it now price just with shipping adjusted. I'm sure they...

    18” vs. 17” wheels on fox

    You can run any height wheel you want if you run the right size tire. Has nothing to do with what fits best. There aren't any issues with 18s that wouldn't have the same problem with 17s. The right width, offset and tire and you are fine. And you don't need super wide tires that cause...

    Engine Replacing upper/lower intake, anything else?

    Either you are bad at pics or that's not exactly "Hideous everywhere", lol. It may not be up to your standard, but i bet there are quite a few guys around here that would take that engine bay over theirs. It's probably going to take some research for each type of surface you need to treat based...

    Engine Replacing upper/lower intake, anything else?

    I'm not fully understanding what you are shooting for here. If it's a excellent condition stock factory original look, don't mess with finishes. An accufab will look out of place in that engine bay for sure and provide no performance gain. It only takes a few minor changes to make an engine...

    Full Length Headers

    It's easy to install 50 set of brand new ones a single time. But installing them twice is much more difficult, lol. They can warp so bad i would never consider flangeless headers ever again. I wasn't joking about the crow bar, it's been like 20 years and i can still remember the trauma of trying...

    Full Length Headers

    If you dropped those headers off at my house for free i'd throw them in the recycling can. Suspected to be mac is bad enough, no flange? Hell no, i'm not a fan of crowbarring tubes into place. Shorties are really fine for most cases. Personally i like bassani equals, not sure if they really...

    Fox Tie Rod

    If it were 5 inches you would probably have crashed by now. Simplest way to check is to jack the car directly underneath the ball joint (without hitting tire or wheel) Grab the wheel at 3 and 9 o'clock and move side to side. You aren't trying to turn the wheel, just see how far it goes with...

    Engine What Camshaft?

    With AFR165s you are going to need 24s (possibly 30s if you were to use a custom cam and a better intake). You will also want a meter 80mm or bigger.

    Took some pics, i do really own a mustang...

    Ok, i'll shoot them a message from my Wife's account, i'm not big on Facebook. It was kinda odd, i waited like a year for foxresto to send the email that they were doing the hatch quarters, then by the time i was getting around to grabbing a set of donor glass, it was already over and they...

    Took some pics, i do really own a mustang...

    So we can still get the originals redone at Quarter Horse for a Hatch? I had a local yard set aside a couple cores for me, but then i saw that foxresto stopped doing them, so i never picked them up. I'm sure i can still get another set. The whole silicone thing doesn't bother me. I know when i...

    Took some pics, i do really own a mustang...

    I had my 6 year old help. All he had to do was hold the door in place as it hung since i wrapped and sized the length of the strap so it was as neutral as possible. It actually went better than I expected. I also used better cutting discs for my dremel like these. They are notably better than...

    Took some pics, i do really own a mustang...

    I think you always could get them for a notch (well you have been for a while), they are more expensive, probably because they are licensed (or at least i'm assuming it's licensed). I would pay the $700 to get hatch quarters with the mustang logo in them.

    help me understand calibrated maf sensors and injectors

    Those numbers are closer to rear wheel horsepower in the real world. You can stretch 19's close to 300rwhp, should you? Probably not, but it's been done with the Trickflow kit. And if you were to go by that chart anyone with 300rwhp would need 30's which is definitely not true.

    help me understand calibrated maf sensors and injectors

    You should worry about making the car run right as is before messing with anything else. Forget turbos and superchargers for now. I'd run it with the 19's and stock meter first, because if you change too much without intimate knowledge of what is going to happen you could be chasing your tail...

    Run a 5 channel or use head unit and mono amp for sub?

    Interesting channel. He does have a 5 channel comparison from a few years ago that the amps cam be found really cheap and appear to be small enough to go under the passenger seat which is where i would prefer it.

    Took some pics, i do really own a mustang...

    Thanks, I'm big on period correct. I also rebuilt both doors. Added component speakers to both and the dash, new door pins on the passenger all new hardware, new armrests (looked fine in garage, but they really need painting after seeing them in the sun) kilmat where I could fit it, New...

    Took some pics, i do really own a mustang...

    Here's a few pics to prove that i actually have a mustang. I'm just not much of a photographer, so photos aren't normally on my mind. Some parts of the car need paint, this winter i'll do a new front valence, the Pside front fender has rust around the antenna (it's a junkyard fender from 20...

    Run a 5 channel or use head unit and mono amp for sub?

    I think i have it planned out, or at least i hope. I have the speakers in the doors wired to the hatch (and back to the head unit, but that's an easy cut and remove). Power wire to stereo and a 3 pair RCA to the hatch too. The rear if i should decide to power should be easy, though i will wait...

    Run a 5 channel or use head unit and mono amp for sub?

    Thanks guys, So today i decided to hook up the new speakers to the head unit, i wanted to close up the panels on the car for now until i get into this. Sound quality using the components was much better, but it really didn't have enough power to run on high volume (which is needed) while driving...
