    Got called a douchebag

    Maybe so.. Nonetheless, I've learned to judge people by thier credentials and what they say, not what they wear. Except maybe a clown suit.

    Have you ever gotten to a point where Stangnet bores you?

    I haven't had much funding for this car since the beginning. Everything has been beg or borrow. Lately, just looking at this forum has created a lump in my throat. Still, I drive the car daily. More than once the info has pulled me out of a hole. Then again, someday, I'll start making some...

    Got called a douchebag

    I've been looking for decent work ever since I graduated in May. I used to work in service and things haven't been to sharp in my field since Micron, you know, the company with one product that has no margins, ...yup, DRAM, layoffs. I wore office clothes to work today, you know, slacks...

    Bent Push Rods

    Uh, push rods typically shouldn't just bend on their little own some. Check your valve train geometry, coil bind, etc. Or, install a rev limiter. I may, and am, usually incomplete or wrong. So, as far as I know, over revving or incorrect valve train geometry are the only ways to fubar a push...

    This is kinda funny.

    I was working on my buddy's Isuzu Pup in the snow, had a bad clutch master cylinder. Finally got the pedal assembly and cylinder out, was priming the new master. Of course, just a few days before, my wife asked why I didn't have any safety goggles... Pushed the rod in, and 'phwoooosh,' a...

    PS pump removal..Belt Tensioner?

    fr manual rack installed...should it feel like this?

    I've got Randall's rack and the stock pump. Just makes the steering real easy as compared to the pump he sells. Of course, more pressure seems like more control. That's what he told me two years ago when I bought mine, seems like his sentiment has panned out fairly true. Maybe he is...

    1965-1995 mustang?

    shifter Unless I'm mistaken, the shifter will move away from the dash, not forward. The 94+ t-5 has a longer input shaft and bellhousing. This condition leaves you with only two problems, clutch linkage (I'm told a hydraulic setup fixes this problem as the hole is lower on the 94+...

    Northern Radiator & Taurus Fan install

    Nice, off to the junkyard I go, again. Maybe. Gonna try to align the belt a little better. Last belt smoked and looked to catch on fire. Oh how we laughed, those were the days!!!

    sbf heads

    More thoughts I've been mulling this over a little more. Assuming there isn't some early major mechanical failure in the heads (which is just as likely with a rebuilt set); once they need machining for a rebuild, you're still stuck with Jed. Strip your hardware off the old ones and take them...

    sbf heads

    $895 'round here, 895 is the nominal cost of machining your old heads... Then if something goes wrong, say valve recesses aren't deep enough, the cost skyrockets... I'd much rather pay 895 (assuming that's the upper end of the budget) than trust Jed and his alcohol issues. Of course...
