    Heater Core!!!

    sounds like you have a possible thermostat problem, most mustang heater cores leak, not get clogged...i would try the $10.00, 10 minute thermostat first.....Whats the temp gauge showing in all of this?

    Do you need a windage tray?

    it's a good idea, It helps keep the flinging oil of your crank from spraying into the pan which causes bubbles, which causes foam eventually. i know toyota uses them from the factory on a lot of cars,built into the oil pan..., that's why I bought mine..
