    Getting stock 93 gt radio out?

    If you know what you're doing, a bent coat hanger will work also. The radio clips are 'sorta' like fuel lines, you have to release them before it comes out.. they are loaded to some extent.

    Batt ground relocate

    The computer ground is in the fuel injector harness. It is an orange wire that comes out at the very top of the harness. It can be grounded to the back of a head, even where the braided wire is grounded. Run a file on your stock battery ground location at the front of the block to remove any...

    what i need for a 331/347

    You'll need a stroker cranks for 331 or 347 (different), and .030 over pistons/rings. Of coarse rods, main/cam bearings, piston pins. Possibly notching the block with the 347, possibly not with the 331. You'll need it balanced. Not much else off the top of my head.

    computer ground

    The ecu wire he's refering to is the the top of the engine bay harness. It's almost between the 'salt and pepper' shakers. Should be a red wire. If it's not on the block/firewall, hook it up, I put mine to the same ground on the head that the engine grounds to the firewall at.

    REPLACING TRANNY. WHO HAS DONE??

    Damn.. I could have mine out and back in in probably an hour.. 2 hours changing the clutch.. The limited space is the roughest part. Make sure if you swap the clutch, you get an alignment tool or an old tranny shaft.

    Car overheated BADLY

    I would suggest you tow it, why CAN'T you? Take the belt off and see if it still makes the noise. If not, it's with water pump. Also check your antifreeze for oil, if it's in there, you head gasket(s) may be gone. Also double check coolant level and overfill tank. I had mine get hot one...

    ???'s about repainting the Wheels

    I would try the remover on the rest, as it is easier, and then prime them all, and you shouldn't notice a differance. Have you thought about bead blasting them then having them polished?

    Debating on what brand X-pipe to buy?

    I have the Dr. Gas with longtubes, and it is nice. Sounds throaty. You could always have a muffler shop weld it.

    How to identify gt40 heads

    GT40s also came on Explorer through mid 94. GT40s have 3 bars on the end and GT stamping, instead of the 4 bars and GT40P stamping. My heads came from a 94 Explorer. The Cobra heads have a smaller combustion chamber, raising the compression, as compared to the over the counter or explorer...

    This is kinda an old thread, but I got my replacement GT40 valves locally from TEA. www.totalengineairflow.com . They were like $5 each.

    Shattered valve

    Apparently I 'had' some P/V issues. After starting my car yesterday, I hear a 'clack clack clack'. So I shut it off, and came back today to investigate. First I noticed a small hole in the primary on my number 5 cylinder. Took the valved cover off, to find the rocker just sitting on the spring...

    Nice ride.. The iPod holder tops it off. I think I'd put a grill over the sub, so the groceries don't bust it. :P. Nice ride..

    Can i use a edlel perf intake if it's missing one upper intake bolt?

    My intake has the rear right upper bolt stripped, I haven't had it helicoiled yet. No leaks. Tig weld an ear on it and drill it out. Easy fix. Well worth $100.

    86 SVO Rear/A-Arms on a 91 GT?

    I bought a 91 GT that needs a front and rear under it. I have found someone near with an 86 SVO 8.8 rear with 3.73s and 5 lug conversion (disc). This should bolt up to my GT, right? Also, what is involved with hooking the discs up in back, to power them, a bigger master cylinder? Also, he has...
