    New Year's Resolutions 2005

    Get my car up and running- the new motor and tranny are sitting in my garage waiting on the body shop to finish car, also redoing the interior completely. The car has been out of commission since november due to the run in with my less than honest mechanic so I'm doing it myself- This whole...

    4 bolt caster camber plates... who has them and which ones?

    another vote for the MM 4bolt CC plates- I would definitely agree with getting a 4 bolt setup if you plan to use coilovers.

    Anyone using UPR Kmember and A-arms?

    The design on the bilsteins is a bit different on the topside of the strut assembly so the factory coilover kit didn't work as well- it moved around and the spring perch wasn't seated properly on the top.

    Anyone using UPR Kmember and A-arms?

    I also have the UPR K member kit with the a-arms and coilover kit as well, I ended up having to buy the MM coilover kit for bilsteins because the kit is meant to be used with factory style struts. I also noticed that it set my motor back about an inch as well. One other thing was we had to...

    Post Your Newest Stang Pic, 94-95 Cars Only.

    Aye, the decals are all going away with the new paint job, even the badges, going to go for a clean simple look. The interior will be all black and some of the interior trim will have blue accents to match the exterior and the corbeau CR1 blue seats I have as well. After all the time I...

    Here's a shot of mine atm She's missing a few things..... But the good news is the new motor will be going in once the car is finished being repainted. The color will be the color we painted the engine bay, which is House of Kolor Shimerin Candy Basecoat Cobalt blue. Atm we are...

    Viper Spec T56 and parts finally arrived (DUW)

    Nice setup- as an alternative for the reverse lockout I used for mine is to wire it to the brake switch on the brake so that I don't have to worry about hitting a switch to use reverse. You can do a google search on what connector to buy (it's a GM part) and see how that goes. Grats on the...

    suggestions on a new chunk

    well running the Hoosier Quicktimes quickly made me realize what the weak point is in my driveline :P The old posi is going out and a new chunk is going in. I'll probably upgrade to 31 spline axles as well, but need some suggestions on what chunk to put in. The car has a 331 stroker motor...

    is the engine brace stock?on 95

    I believe it was standard on the 94-98 convertibles only to shore up structural support with the absence of the roof structure. There is also an X-brace located below the engine as well.

    331 Almost complete- tell me what you think

    lol subframes aren't wooden- lol that's some rust is all :P nothing like home made ones :) As for the K-member it went in rather easily, only had to make one slight (hammer) adjustment to get the steering rack to fit, as for the coilovers it was a no brainer, but the first place I'm going to...

    GOT TWEECER!!!!!...but problem

    you need to set the strategy correctly- its not the A9L but for the sn95 5.0s you need to use the CBAZA one then the numbers will look a bit more in line.

    331 Almost complete- tell me what you think

    It is a stock production block- I think it should be fine for the application, as for the stickers they will be gone when the exterior is repainted the same as the engine bay. I decided to use the street heat intake for more low end torque, being a convertible it's a bit portly (hopefully with...
