    2010 Roush?

    I like the front lower center grill opening and bumper sides much better too. What the heck is the deal with the FOUR FOGLIGHTS????!!!! Is this a rally car LOL??!!! Remove the grill fogs for a more distinct look but I think the bumper would look cleaner with keeping the grill fogs and smooth...

    Putting Mass Air on the 88 GT

    The throttle body on my 1988 GT has seen better days and since I'm going to eventually start modifying my GT I'm going to need to do a mass air conversion. The Accufab throttle body and EGR spacer showed up last week, and the mass air kit from Page 1 came a couple days ago. I'm also upgrading...

    Billet Specialties Street Lite wheel Q's

    I have the PBR calipers up front on my 88 GT with 96+ spindles using the Street Lite 15x3.5s. I needed a 7/16" spacer to clear. Still fit just inside the wheel well lip with a 1.75" drop. If I had used the 94-95 spindles I could use the .50" billet spacers that Billet Specialties offers and have...

    Anybody make a Stock Replacement 302 Block or Shortblock with Forged Pistons New???

    Didn't know this was a double post - besides I do not want the cast pistons, I need forged pistons. Duncan, I must have missed that in their catalog. THAT's what I was looking for. Hhhhm, $1300 plus shipping huh? I'll have to do some research and compare prices to see which way i need to go...

    Anybody make a Stock Replacement 302 Block or Shortblock with Forged Pistons New???

    Hey guys, Ever since Ford stopped making stock replacement 302 blocks and shortblocks I cannot find an affordable alternative to replacing the 302 in my daily driver. I just spent a bit of money building a 400 hp motor with AFR heads for my 85 Notch but I don't want to spend that kind of...

    wheel & tire combo's on your fox, lets see them.

    Yeah that was my GT. I wrote and photographed the article. I started with this almost 100% bone stock GT with low mileage so I've been workin' on some good solid fox body articles with Evan Smith and MM&FF magazine. This is my second article. About 3 years ago i had done an AOD to T5 swap...

    wheel & tire combo's on your fox, lets see them.

    Yeah but your 2-tone Mustang is BAD-A! You can show as many pics of it as you want. I am also going to be ditching the 17" bullitts in the future and going with some sort of 18" wheel and a staggered width. Probably when I get something else to drive everyday. J

    wheel & tire combo's on your fox, lets see them.

    Here's a couple pics of my 88 GT with the Billet Specialties Street Lites - 15x3.5 and 15x8 with a Nitto 275/50-15 DR Here's how I drive it daily - with a set of Bullitts. I'm getting ready to order the 17x9 wheels for the rear shortly...

    2010 Ford Mustang GT Shaker Hood by CDC

    Honestly, I think the shaker is a little boxy looking - not too too bad. I think if the shaker scoop itself was about 10-15% larger overall it would have a better presence on top of the hood. It looks soooo small atop that big hood. What would have also helped the looks of the shaker scoop would...

    looking for new Drag Radial

    I've always run a 15x8 wheel, 5.5" B.S. and a Nitto 555R DR 275/50/15. They fit great and look killer. Always get a lot of compliments on 'em. Here's some pics of my 85 LX Notch and my 88 GT Daily Driver that run the same wheel and tire sizes...two different brand wheels...

    4 lug 10th Anniversary Cobras??

    I've done the SN95 5 lug swap twice now and will do it to every fox Mustang I buy. Like said above, the brakes get much better and the wheel selection is the big plus. Everytime I see an 18" FR500 or some other 18" wheel on a fox body with a drum brake out back I just shake my head. Hey I'm on a...

    Let's rate the new Mustang

    Man some of you guys are HARSH. Hey if it's more power you want, pay a little more and go for the supercharger. Proabably wouldn't be any more than the cost of a New Challenger or Camaro. If you really take a look at the bigger picture, we're probably just lucky to still have any muscle cars...

    Reading in Mustang Monthly

    I see what you are saying about the power but there's more to the bullitt than just the power increase over the previous GT. There's many details all over the car to make it unique. Basically the Bullitt isn't just a GT with a slight power upgrade, there's a lot of other unique details and parts...

    Let's rate the new Mustang

    Overall I really like the new Mustang GT and Shelby GT500. Exterior - 1969 is my favorite year Mustang and being that the styling is heavily influenced by that - I'm pretty stoked about the styling. I like everything except for two areas on the GT. First, the lower rear bumper is just TOO...

    2010 GT500 Engine Mystery?

    Naah, probably just the usual pre-production issues. There may be some parts on the engine that won't make production or parts that are not finished looking that they don't want to show.

    4 lug 10th Anniversary Cobras??

    I totally understand what you are saying about tooling costs etc. I work at GMP Diecast as a project manager/designer for high end diecast model cars. I work directly with the China factories, and have even visited the facilities overseas. I guess what I'm thinking is, either way you still have...
