    An Interesting read from the CEO of Factory Five on the Economy

    Are we dumber or smarter.......... :scratch: As was said above, when they make something I want, I'll look into it. It is an investment for some of us. But with their track record...........hmmmm. I don't feel bad investing in a company that is not worried about making it through 09. Plus I...

    What first?? Springs and Shocks or Anti-Roll Kit?

    I think most people go shocks and springs first. Maybe check out a pair of upper strut mounts (CC Plates). I know steeda has some pricey ones but I think you can get a pair for the gt500 for much less. I know you'll want an alignment after the drop. You shouldn't need it after the roll bars though.

    What Exhaust Component is Most Important?

    Custom exhaust can get really expensive really fast too. Especially when you start asking about headers for these cars. I found a person locally who has the setup I want, SLP X and LM axle back, and that's what I'm going for. See if you can't find someone in a club, or "chase" down a mustang...

    What Exhaust Component is Most Important?

    If you buy the x/h pipe first, then the axle back, and don't like it that way.....you're still looking at buying something different. I think the gains in hp come from the x/h pipe and a big change of sound come from the axle back. I'd go with the axle back first too.

    expenses on my 70 project

    Live is good until you move out!!!! I did the same thing as you with a Z71 in high school. 3 years worth of paychecks into it and then someone steals it. Invest in a ravelco unit or some other kind of security! Ravelco Anti Theft Device Kudos to you on an awesome car. Really is pretty.

    two great companies

    Lots of people carry those parts besides the producing companies. Glad to hear nevertheless. Nice to hear the good stuff amongst all the negatives.

    Finding a Clutch Pedal

    I'm looking to convert my c4 to a toploader. I think I have a good idea of what I need but I can't find a clutch pedal. Anyone know who has them for a 1970? Or am I going to have to go junkyard hunting....

    Advice on buying.....94 Cobra

    I am going to look at a 94 cobra later this week. I need to know what to look for when I am checking for a solid car. I have a 70 mustang and kind of knew what to expect when I bought it but I don't know what I should be looking for on a 13 year old car. Thanks!!! Justin

    Im bored.....

    I work in a lab at the only trauma center hospital in my area (mostly hematology & blood bank). Kinda sucks on Fri & Sat nights when someone gets shot or a MVC comes in but it's ok until I finish my degree in nursing. I am slowly gathering parts that are lying around for the car right now...

    Single chamber flowmasters

    I have a 1 chamber on my ranger with a dump after it and it makes my little 3.0 sound like it's something else. I want to do the 1 chambers on mine but I can't figure out a way to exit the exhaust out the back how I want it.

    What's Everyone got going for Projects now that it is getting Warmer?

    Still a poor college student so funds are limited. Hope to have a full MSD upgrade (ignition box, coil, wires, etc), exhaust, and redo the battery wires.

    Starting Problems

    Replaced battery and wires leading to relay and starter. Had the fuel lines cleaned, fuel filter changed, carb and ignition have recently (within the past month) tuned. Car interior lights and gauges light up when I turn the key but the engine starts to turn over for a split second, then does...
