    Just Installed Drag Springs in the rear, got a question!!

    Yeah, if you looked at them before you installed them you'd see that they're different. I've got the rears sitting in my garage, I'll take a couple pics tomorrow if I remember. As for the bag being tight, of course it is. If it wasn't snug on the sides then when the spring compressed on...

    COMPRESSED OXYGEN

    Oxygen is not flammable, it aids combustion. A spark around oxygen will just become a bigger spark. Never used an oxy-acetylene torch?

    COMPRESSED OXYGEN

    Yeah, but your air compressor needs the large volume because it's at 150lbs pressure. Compressed oxygen is at 2000lbs.

    X2C control arms... anyone using?

    I'm looking at the Boxer R arms, but anyone using either the R or ST's... I want your opinion of them.

    will my regular lug nuts from ponies work on draglites?

    Not a chance. If you have the stock studs then you wouldn't even be able to start a cone lugnut onto the threads. You need the extra long shank style, get the McGards. And enjoy the draglites... a bit of a pain in the ass to install/remove compared to cone lugs but well worth the looks.

    Taurus Fan?

    I'd put my two cents in because I just installed mine a few weeks ago but it hasn't been warm enough here to really test it. In fact, I've only turned it on twice while cruising and it was for a minute at most. Welcome to Canada eh.

    Electric Fan

    It depends on the angle of the blades. If you are mounting it between the rad and motor (where the stock fan was) then you want it to suck air. You should feel the air blowing at the motor.

    Car doesn't want to start, barely turns over...

    We tried to fire my brother's car this weekend. The motor is fresh and we just finished a T5 to C4 swap. The car has sat for a couple years now. When we first tried there was nothing, power windows were sluggish too, so we assumed battery. We boosted the trunk mount battery and it didn't...

    Mr. Gasket street scoop, do you need a supercharger to use one???

    No. It works off the carb linkage, they make them for dual or single carb setups.

    Do I need LONGER studs for my WELDS ? (pic inside)

    Others have answered this for you already. If you aren't going to run the Welds at the track, then no. If you plan to run at the track with the Welds then yes, you'll need longer studs.

    Where to mount cut off w/trunk battery?

    IHRA states - Master Cutoff: Mandatory if battery is relocated or is specified by class requirements. It must be located on the rear of all entries and must break the positive side battery supply to the competition vehicle. It must be easily identifiable and clearly labeled as to function...

    Can't you just line up the bolt holes?

    MSD Pro Billet Distributor = JUNK!

    My brother has one and he completed destroyed the gear within 10 minutes. Plus, once the motor warmed up he couldn't adjust the distributor (timing). MSD replaced the shaft and a bunch of other parts on it... we'll see next weekend how the parts work out.

    Eibach drag launch springs.....?

    I apologize for the crappy pics, the garage is small and we just got a dump of snow so I didn't pull it outside. I have the eibachs on the front, haven't changed the rears yet. I've removed the p/s, smog, swaybar. I didn't want my car to sit like a 4X4, so I cut a full coil out of the...

    Who has the lightest Stang?!

    I'm right around 2900lbs with my '90 coupe. I've got draglites and race buckets now so we'll see how much of a difference they make. I've removed pretty much everything I could. No air, ps, smog, backseat. I don't have any fiberglass parts or aftermarket k-member. I figure at best I'll be...

    Swapped to 5 lug on LX, what wheels for slicks?

    I'm going to be swapping to 5X4.5" on my '90 LX. What wheels are cheap to mount my slicks on? I can no longer use my 10 holes... BTW, the slicks are 26X8.5 so backspacing doesn't have to be spot on.
