    New Clutch Install "home installation"

    Thanks for the advice! Question... were you able to re-attach those 2 brakets that go between the top 2 bolts and engine? Believe it or not out of everything i've done so far, that's the only thing I can't get out of my head.

    New Clutch Install "home installation"

    I finally got the top 2 transmission bolts loose and pulled the transmission out of the car last night. What a pita that was. I had to lower both the engine and transmission in order to clear the tunnel and slide it out. Here's a picture of my car sitting on 4 - 3 1/2 ton jack stands with a...

    New Clutch Install "home installation"

    I decided to do my own clutch install just for the experience and because I don't need to use my car anytime soon. I drive a 2004 mustang gt and I'm replacing my stock clutch with a new centerforce dfx, new release bearing, pilot bearing and seal. I'm having a local facility resurface my old...

    Did I hook my catch can up backwards???

    I'm using the Steeda Oil Seperator. Installed it over a year ago and have no tyet seen one drop of oil in the little glass catch jar. I guess maybe it's because my car only has 37000 miles on it? I know it's hooked up properly.

    Zex Spark Plugs...

    I haven't found any posts on what to gap these zex plugs for running nitrous on an 04 gt. I've seen posts for gapping at .035 and .040 but on much older cars running different systems. Anybody using these plugs? Did they come "pre-gapped"? What should I gap them at for running a 75 or 100...

    What causes plugs to turn red?

    In the middle of changing over to a colder plug for nitrous on my 04 gt I pulled two plugs that had turned red (see attached pics). These are motorcraft plugs. They went in white but they came out red. Anyone have a suggestion to what might have caused this?

    180 deg. thermostat direction...

    Thanks jstreet! That's exactly the answer I was hoping for.

    180 deg. thermostat direction...

    Yes I know that but what's confusing me is the engraved arrow with the word radiator under it. Should the arrow point in the direction of the radiator (which mine was not when I removed it) or does it mean that the arrow should point in the direction of the water flow to the radiator?

    180 deg. thermostat direction...

    Here's a question which I have not found an answer to anywhere in my search. My stock thermostat has an arrow engraved on it with the words "radiator". Does this mean arrow points towards radiator or does it mean arrow points in direction of water flow to the radiator? I'm confused because...

    Mystery sound...

    I don't think so. The JLT setup has been on since last year. I'll check the idler pully. The car only has 28000 miles on it.

    Mystery sound...

    When I got in my car this afternoon and turned it on, there's a loud high pitched droning noise that sounds like wind blowing through a pipe. This noise is loud enough that you can hear it a 1/2 block away. I opened my hood and the noise is coming from the front right passenger side somewhere...

    Pics of Shelby stripes on a grey GT

    Oh... some good advice for you when installing these stripes on your car. USE A HAIR DRYER! I had the best luck when using a spray bottle filled with water and a couple drops of dishwashing detergent. Once you get the stripes in place it helps to use a hairdryer to mold them over the mold of...

    Pics of Shelby stripes on a grey GT

    I think black shelby stripes on a dark grey mustang look great. I tried striping mine but never made it past the hood because I have that dang reverse scoop style hood! My car is one the the unfortunate late model '04 gt mustangs which ford stuck on a 00 cobra reverse scoop hood because they ran...

    Catback question....

    Right now I have the stock headers, Mac offroad prochamber, flowmaster 40 series mufflers with stock plumbing/tailpipe exhaust. I'm confused about this catback exhaust thing. I mean, with the setup I have now, would switching to a full catback exhaust (new mufflers to exhaust tips)make that...
