    Best Catback for my X-Pipe

    I know. Wish I hadn't sold it but I needed the money at the time. I will say the quality was great, but the fitment was not as good as my SLP cat-back. The over-axle pipes from bassani were welded together and a pita to install and adjust. Kept rubbing the frame or the fuel tank cover...

    Roush Shift Handle Installed *Pics*

    Dragon is stock now, has been since last September. This is for my Bullitt. Roush handle will not work with an MGW. Guys, it is not that bad at all. Not any worse than stock. Hell, it feels a lot better, imo. Come to think of it, I may* try a Pro 5.0, but I do like the Tri-Ax.......

    Roush Shift Handle Installed *Pics*

    Its not nearly as bad as it looks. I took it for a quick spin and it feels good, limited by the stock shifter of course. Im keeping my eye out for a Tri-Ax to mate it up to.

    Roush Shift Handle Installed *Pics*

    dude, I could not for the life of me get that (explitive) knob off the handle! I sprayed PB Blaster into the threads and gave it all sorts of hell but it would not budge! Finally I just forced the bottom of the handle through the top of the boot, then installed the handle to the shifter with...

    Best Catback for my X-Pipe

    i used to be all about stainless steel or nothing, but now I'll just go with weld-ins. I paid for a full SLP cat-back, and even the SS Bassani cat-back (you can get it for $640-ish shipped, but thats still too much imo). I kind of understand about the corrosion factor in the northeast, but...

    Roush Shift Handle Installed *Pics*

    Roush sells the handle for $82 and the knob for $35. What a greedy old bastard. I got it used for $45. Looks great, imo and has a road race feel. Not ideal for drag racing, but I'll get a short-throw and make it work. Had to use the stock boot which was too small, but I made it my bitch...

    Best Catback for my X-Pipe

    get the Bx or just weld Bassani mufflers in. OR try to find a used SS cat-back. I know its pricey, but my GOD did it sounds F'n beautiful!!! If not Bassani, I think........(helty's thinking).........I'll get back to you on that one. Chambered is that classic, deep muscle car sound...

    Catbacks with Rolled Tips

    SLP. Magnaflow, Mac, Borla are all rolled. MRT makes some sweet rolled tips also. I like SLP's the best, 3.5" double-walled, rolled tips.

    Header Install

    you will want to support the motor with a jack/jackstand and some 2x4's.

    Header Install

    Get yourself a jack that will raise the car high. 2 big Jackstands for the chasis, a couple of smaller jackstands and jacks for supporting the K-member and motor. Remove the sway bar, brake calipers, drop the struts/A-arms, take the nuts off the motor mounts, disconnect the steering shaft...

    Mechanic Looked @ Gears: Help Needed Inside 4.10 vs 3.73s!:D

    LaserRed01GT, or something like that. KB has a lot more low-end torque than a Centri though. Traction wouldnt be AS bad with 4.10s/Centri compared to 4.10s/KB. It would still suck though.
