    Can someone explain this car to me

    I dont think youd ever see the words "4 speed" on a tag, it would list a code for it. For it to be a true factory GT it doesnt need to be a K code, it could be an A or K. There is no vin designation for the GT package. For researching a GT go to www.karmustang.com, theyve got a good article on...

    Body dipping

    You'll find sand in some crevice 20 yrs from now too, lol. The soda doesnt remove heavy bondo or heavy rust, my car didnt have any of either so it worked great for me.

    Body dipping

    I had mine soda blasted, it was reasonable did a super job and when its done theres no sand or other media left behind in every nook and cranny, the soda dissolves and rinses away.

    Lowered Mustangs

    They rub on the outside, its obvious in the pic. By the looks of it, tossing passengers in the back seat would be ugly

    Hey everybody

    Alston Chassis is pretty darn reputable so I have no doubt TCP products are going to be as good as in the past. For a street car IMO theres 1 reason to go with just TCP uppers.. no shims and easy adjustability,for a street driver the rest is overkill. The following is IMO the perfect chassis...

    Based on what I know about NASA, those are exactly the type of people who put man on the moon. LOL

    Comments on Autoworks crossmember / AS-arm conversion

    I dont like that lower arm either. Check out Heidts, thier setup doesnt use the cheezy strut rod lower a arm, instead its a wider spread lower a arm done right... Look at reenmachines thread to see what I mean, hes got some very good installed MII pics. IMO its a much nicer setup that the rod...

    The penultimate of stupid looking Fords

    Hey its a cool old truck, the box ruins it. Its far from being the uglyest thing Ive seen, in fact aside from the horrible choice in a box and purple flames its a beauty. It would make an Awesome rollback flatbed for hauling a vintage racer.

    Pressure Plate Bolts for T-5: No one has them in Stock?!? Where to buy?

    I think hes mistaken, that should be $7.50 for a package of bolts. I bought the dowels and bolts from the local dealer for less than $40.

    New efi engine Fit Question

    To some extent youre correct, if you are doing a stock motor conversion its usually trouble free if done correctly. Once you enter the world of modified motors you really need to do your homework to get 100% satisfaction. Theres a large number of people who have returned back to carbs or left...

    Newbie - Ford GT40 302 crate in a 1965 fastback

    New efi engine Fit Question

    very few or none will plug in! If my memory is correct EVERYTHING electronic is different, been there done that. The 94 and 95 Mustang 5.0 motors also have different sensors that dont connect with the 87-93 mustang harnesses.

    New efi engine Fit Question

    The Expolrer EFI poses a challenege too as opposed to 87-93 mustang stuff. In addition to being distributorless they also use a returnless fuel system and have an OBDII EEC. None of the sensors swap with the 87-93 mustang stuff and the OBDII is VERY complicated to convert as ford heavily...

    EFI conversion help!!!

    Theres nothing wrong with longtubes on an EFI car, Im using them and they work great, I located both Hegos as far fwd in the collector as I could get them. Aftermarket mass air meters are the BIGGEST cause of driveability issues. A baffled tank is a tank that has had baffles installed inside...

    Steering question after Granada swap

    I had to trim the tie rod adjusting sleeves AND cut one of the steering stops that mount on the srtut rods down. The sleeves didnt have any effect on the turning radius, they just prevented enough adjustement to get the proper toe-in. If youve got correct toe in adjusted, then its the stop that...

    Finally done! what is it worth now =) (dialup=death)

    With regards to classic cars you can throw any figures from NADA right out the window, but like you said its a basic reference. Its a demand driven market, especially when it comes to non original cars. Toss is the Ebay and Barret Jackson factors and no one can really predict what a car will...
