    Now that winters almost over, I find this...

    Those things are only need for extreme cold environements like Canada. They are needed because in the winter the temps can go sub -30 degrees F at night, and motor oil is like fudge at that temp. When you started you car you would have no oil. The block heater is used to warm up the engine...

    Who has Ford C Springs???

    Don't worry about this. Between the rubber isolator on top of it, and the fact that it gets compressed when installed the spring sits just fine.

    3.73 or 3.90 Gears ?

    I just installed 4.10's and they are very nice. Around town you will barely even notice. The only thing you will notice is that the engine likes to climb through the rpms faster. The rpms are noticably higher on the highway, but really not that bad at all. Some thing like 500 rpms or so...

    Who has Ford C Springs???

    The C springs will lower the front of the car a lot. I would say about 1.5". The rears on the other hand do not lower the car that much. Maybe about 0.75". The simple thing to do is cut the dead coil off the rear, and this will 99% of the time even things out perfectly. I myself cut half of...

    rear seat delete that folds down like stock seats?

    You could always make your own. That is what I did. The back board attaches at the top with velcro has hinges at the bottom. Also, I hinged bottom piece so that you can store stuff under it. I have a nice flat carpeted surface to put stuff on now, still can fold down the back to put big...

    Widest Tires on MY 00 MUSTANG GT??

    The profile will effect the side wall hieght or absically the diameter of the tire. A 40 series would have more sidewall then a 35, and should be esier to intall on a narrower rim. You would have to check the diameter of the tires to see which you could use.

    How to install your own gears!!!

    This should pretty much cover any Ford 8.8" for any year. The only difference maybe the disk brake part I mentioned at the end. I do not no when Ford switched to the new style disk brakes.

    Cam gurus, or anyone with a trained eye, help me out with my cams...

    Well, here is a lesson to never buy anything used. Especially off the internet :nono: Well, I do not think all is lost. I would return them if you can get your money back. If not, I would bet that some fine grit wet sand paper could clear up most of you problems. You might also want to...

    FMS gears are the best. The are cheap, and very strong. Take a look at GEF racing for the best prices around.

    Meziere Elec Water Pump

    I have heard of a few people installing it on daily drivers. From what I remember the pump worked good, but it does not have the longest life when used this way. Try searching on here or over at corral.net

    Thinking of rollcage do i still need subframes?

    From the article posted above, it looks to me that you want a 6 pt roolbar, not a cage. 6 point roll-BAR 8 point roll-CAGE I understand that there are different styles, but with a 6 point roolbar you do not need to deal with the side bar. That would be very suitable for a car that...

    Anti-lock braking. Good/Bad?

    This is so wrong. The whole purpose of ABS is that a car can be stopped much faster if the wheels are not skidding. Once the tires break lose during a skid the car can no longer exert very much friction on the ground, and it decrease the ability to slow the car down. As for the car having...
