    Can you fix a broken odometer?

    Yeah. You can. I have an extra one with 67k on it.

    Disassembly of Alternator

    I wish I could give you some tips, but I can't help you on this one. That engine is looking pretty good though. Good work!

    Anticipation is killing me!

    Nice numbers. And I thought my 260 rwhp was fast. I would love to get some power like you have. Enjoy it and have fun!

    I finally got it as clean as I could! Pics!

    Funny you should mention that. I just told my wife the same thing :) "mazen189: i say a nice drop is due." It has a nice drop, I think. Any lower I am not sure what I would do I have the Mach1 shocks and springs on there. I am 6'9" and I have a hard enough time getting in and out :)

    I finally got it as clean as I could! Pics!

    I bought the car in April of 2003 to "upgrade" from my Mazda 626. I was 19 years old. I started doing some modifying the car a few months later and ended up doing a PI headswap around October 2003. I left the country for two years in December 2003 and got back in December 2005. When I got back...

    I finally got it as clean as I could! Pics!

    So, after not owning my car for about three years, I bought it back. I have spent the last month getting some mechanical issues sorted out. This weekend I finally had the chance to give the car its first clay bar and wax. I must say that it looks a lot better than it did before the treatment...

    steeda longtube headers

    By the look of my MAC L/Ts now, I wish that I would have gotten something that was protected better. I can get flakes of oxidized metal off and it won't be long until I have to choice except to replace them. I will get something that doesn't rust (as much, or as quickly) because the little extra...

    I am losing my sanity, PLEASE HELP!

    Well, technically it didn't. Remember, on my old cluster, the odometer worked just fine, it had a bad speedo. On the new one, the speedo worked fine, but the odometer didn't work. The funny thing is, after all of this, I tested both clusters that have parts mixed and matched from each other...

    I am losing my sanity, PLEASE HELP!

    My sanity is still long gone, but I fixed the issue. It turns out that the harness on my crankshaft position sensor is a little broken, and the wires were barely in there. That explains why the car seems to begin to run like crap after hitting decent sized bumps as well as whenever it wants...

    4.6 Not Starting. Need Ideas!

    fastfox86, did this issue get resolved?

    I am losing my sanity, PLEASE HELP!

    I replaced my instrument cluster tonight hoping to fix my speedometer. Just a note, sometimes my speedo would work, other times it would just read zero, other times it would read 90 when going 70. The odometer has always worked. I took out my stock cluster, and replaced the RPM/Speedo section...

    The Mach1 looks good, and I think you got a great deal.

    Starting the "build" thread...

    That looks good. The super charger is gigantic! Good luck with the tuner.

    Detailing advice

    Cory, check out this link. http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/793136-handz-detailed-2002-corvette-z06-black.html The guy does amazing work. He always includes a list of what he used on the job. I hope that helps. Off topic, but do you remember me?

    Debating if I should sell my 01 Cobra

    Agreed. Maybe put up a free ad somewhere, but don't budge on your price.

    Help with some tuner questions please

    About 5 years ago, handheld tuners for 96-98 GTs were not available. I just finished my PI Swap, and the car was running rough, so I got a tuner called the Apexi Super-AFC. The instructions were all in some oriental language, but my local shop installed and tuned my car. I sold the car and...

    GT Won't Start, I Need Some Help Please..

    I changed the fuel filter and it seems to be doing better. It idles fine. Basically every time I start it up it gives me the P0103 code. I searched this code and the only thing I found was a thread I had started 3 years ago. I think I need to ditch this Super AFC tuner I have been using and...

    GT Won't Start, I Need Some Help Please..

    So, We went this morning to go do the fuel filter in the parking lot where I left it, but of course, we had to try and start it one last time. It started right up, with the CEL going, and still running a little choppy. I got it out of the lot, and starting home, keeping the engine at 2k RPMs...
