    Did I get a good deal on a 1986 GT

    Put the right nose back on it.

    Best Short Throw?

    This is the stock shifter. It is quite tall and has a large rubber block to absorb vibration. Unfortunately, it also slops things up a lot. This is the Tri-Ax handle. As you can see, it is much shorter. Check out this link for the MGW handle. You can see how you can adjust every angle, as...

    What fixed YOUR fuel gauge? 87-93

    New sender fixed mine. I was putting in a new higher volume pump when I did my mods and decided to throw it in while I was there. Bingo!

    I'll be interested to hear your opinions if you do this. If you pull the trigger, update this thread with your impressions.

    Best Short Throw?

    Spend the $35 for the MGW adjustable handle and you'll have the best of both worlds.

    Best Short Throw?

    My feeling is that a shifter should be the first mod you make to a Mustang. You use it literally hundreds of times in a day. Other than the steering wheel and the seat, it is the part of the car you touch the most. It's an inexpensive mod that takes about 15 minutes to install and it will...

    fox seat belts

    I can't imagine that it would be terribly hard if you could find a donor car in a yard. Basically, you'd need the shoulder harnesses, interior plastics and probably the sheet metal mounting point for the upper mount. I'd guess it would require a little cutting and welding for the upper mount...

    OK really confused now

    Step away from the peppers and grapes. Keep your hands where I can see them.

    Best Short Throw?

    I've been running Tri-Ax's for years and love them. In my convertible with the 03 seats, I'd always had a problem reaching 3rd and 5th without moving my shoulder off the seat. I tried several different handles and then my wife got me the MGW adjustable handle for christmas this year. It is...

    Summit Racing Transmission Jack

    My question is, how do you get the car four feet in the air to get that thing under it with the transmission sitting in it? Cinder blocks? Cedar rounds? Block and tackle attached to a tree limb and a chain under the front fenders?

    Summit Racing Transmission Jack

    Word: Summit's tools are the same cheap Chinese garbage that Harbor Freight sells. I made the mistake of buying a HF floor jack one time. I took it home and it wouldn't lift the car. I stood on the pad and it wouldn't even lift me. I took it back and the manager said "Yeah, those things...

    I like peppers.

    trying to do h/c/I without wasting money on a hood

    Ditto that. There will be no clearance issues with an intake swap on a 5.o.

    Turns out my "totally stock" Notch is not quite as stock as I thought

    I know all the fuel injected cars had them and I know the early carb'd car didn't. I don't know exactly when the change happened though. I believe it was 84 or 85.

    OK really confused now

    The real-world difference in power production between a GT40, an Explorer and a Cobra is negligible. You will not be able to tell the difference. They all share the same runner configuration on the lower and the uppers have cosmetic differences. If you've already bought an Explorer, just have...

    1992 vert with remote starting device

    I honestly don't think remote start even existed in 1992, and certainly not as a Ford option or accessory.

    Turns out my "totally stock" Notch is not quite as stock as I thought

    In case you haven't figured it out through all the bickering here, those are original stainless exhaust manifolds on your car. All 5.0's from '86 and up came with them. I still want your car.

    Fuel float question

    What I'm saying is that the float is a solid block. Any wear on it isn't of a consequence at all.

    Fuel float question

    You're just way overthinking things. Here's a brand new one. It ain't very complicated.
