    Will the Mustang survive?

    To Ranger04 the top post on this page. The combustion engine is not efficient at all. On average about 80% of the energy from the fuel goes out the tailpipe and that is starting from the gas in the fuel tank. If you look at the big picture, starting from getting the oil out of the ground...

    Tork Tech supercharger

    Wow. I hope you don't make all your descisions with this kind of logic, because I really feel sorry for you. I would hope that when people spend large amounts of money that they would take in consideration customer service. Do you normally purchase items over $3,000 without any regard for...

    Tork Tech supercharger

    That is the problem. I really don't want to deal with KB. I know every company has had some kind of customer service problem, but it seems like KB has a bad reputation for bad customer service and I just don't want to deal with that. Maybe someone has dealt with this new company.

    Ford racing supercharger

    FRRP: Do they make them anymore? KB: horrible customer service from what most people say Saleen: What is the cost? Roush: over $7,000 is way too much Allen: There was a thread about a month ago saying they went out of business. Can anyone answer/confirm/deny of of these statements...

    Ford racing supercharger

    A lot of people have asked this question and after all the threads about this supercharger, you would think someone would have compiled a complete list, but I haven't found one yet. Can you even buy this supercharger anymore? Besides Kenne Bell, what other roots or twin screw...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    One method of making liquid fuels from carbon based sources is called gasification and pyrolysis. The basic idea is taking a material and heating it up anywhere from 600 F to 2000 F without Oxygen or with so little oxygen that combustion is prevented. At these temperatures, most organic...

    Return of the 5.0 Mustang

    I work at a University and I do research in the field of alternative fuels so I do know a little about what is on the horizon. Yes, we can make our own synthetic fuels, most of which are ethanol, biodiesel, and yes gasoline can be made, but remember that biodiesel and "synthetic" gasoline are...

    Shell Gas

    I don't know if it is true anymore, but 15 years ago I had a relative that drove gas trucks to the stations, and the name brand stations got the gas at the top of tanks and the cheaper stations got the bottom of the tanks, so the Shell station and the cheap station got the same gas. I wouldn't...

    Switching to front Coil overs

    I am not a guru of suspension, so my opinion is based on experience. I have MM's coilover kit, both front and back, 350 up front and 250 in back. I use my car as a daily driver and my situation is like yours. I want to make my car a track car in the next year or so, so I decided to build up...

    Buying a Supercharger, had a couple ?s

    Here is the problem. If someone wants more power than stock than they can buy simple bolt ons. If someone wants a little more power than that, they can buy gears and cams. But if someone wants more power than that, than they have three options, FI, Nitrious, or a completely built na motor...

    bbk underdrive

    The wobble could be a problem, so please check it and maybe take the time to reinstall. However, I wouldn't get rid of the BBK pullies just yet. I have a 2002 GT, with 115,000 miles and about 90,000 miles are with BBK underdrive pullies and no problems so far.

    Camaro vs New GT vs Terminator vs New Wrangler

    Here is my personal opinion. Don't buy the 03/04 Cobra. For you it sounds like a it will be a lot of trouble. I would suggest modding your current car and buying a used jeep. If you really are serious about offroadng than go get a cheap jeep for a few thousand and mod it to fit your...

    Eaton M90 on a 4.6?

    How is your FRRP sc doing, any problems? What did you get from Sniper tuning, the complete DIY kit? Did you eventually get yours dyno tuned. I don't have any worries about installing the kit and fabing any parts or changing mechanical things, the thing that worries me is the tune. Before I...

    Eaton M90 on a 4.6?

    Please correct me if I am wrong. I have read the other threads about the FRRP and as of right now, the FRRP blower will fit a 99+ stang (the one made for 99+) but Ford never came out with their "install kit". However the blower will still work if you do a few minor things like (please add to...

    P0340 Camshaft Position Sensor circuit fault

    I have that same problem and I need to replace my alternator. What brand should I use or more importantly not use. What amperage should I get. I don't have any need for more amperage than the stock alt. Thanks for any help

    Supercharger & Engine life.

    How much abuse can a built motor take. Lets say a 99-04 stang with a KB running at 9-11psi making around 450-550rwhp. How far can you push your tune with a built motor. Lets assume the motor is not a race engine, but an entry level built motor from a reputable shop.

    Eaton M90 on a 4.6?

    I am in the same boat with the original poster. I want forced induction, but I don't want more than 400 rwhp. The KB and allen kits are nice, but they are both overkill for what I want and I don't want to pay for something I will never use. I have been seriously thinking about getting the...

    ELECTRIC WATERPUMP

    The same thing could happen with a mechanical pump, or if your cooling system failed, or your oil suddenly leaked. Do not be concerned about an electric water pump failing. I think Corvette uses electric water pumps from the factory.

    6th gear and shedding weight

    Don't confuse better technology with more complicated. I use the KISS (keep it simple stupid) method when developing technology, and for the most part it has served me well. Most of the time, simpler is better, but people usually associate better technology with complicated which is not always...
