    Kenne Bell & Stock Clutch

    Can the stock clutch handle the Kenne Bell 6 or 9PSI kit? My car is a weekend cruiser, so I won't be heavily abusing it, but I do drive hard. Not drag racing, but definitly son't want any clutch slip on full throttle runs.

    Chin Spoiler/Grill Delete Ordered (Install Q's)

    Chin spoiler was easy. I used the fastener kit that the dealer sold me with it. You have to choose to install like factory (flush at the wheel openings and slightly back at the front) or flush up front and short on the sides. I did it like stock Mach 1. Grilled delete wasn't too bad...

    Vert Top Stop Adjustment?

    It just seems that the two areas near the latches won't be down far enough. When I look at the car from the side with no boot on, they seem to stick up into the air higher than the top of the old style boot. They fit under the puffy bubbles on the new boot, but seem like I would need to get...

    Vert Top Stop Adjustment?

    I want to get a boot for my '02 Vert from an older model when they made the nicer semi-hard boots. My problem is that it looks to me like my top doesn't go down far enough to fit the older style boot. How do you change the stops so that the top retracts more?

    Smells like something is burning!

    The valve covers tend to seep alittle oil on our cars. Mine sits thru the winter and I start it up monthly. When I let it run in the garage I always get a smell of burning oil. I tracked it down with a mirror and at the back bottom corner of each valve cover there is a single drip of oil...

    Grille Delete installed! *PICS*

    I'm thinking it might be time to buy a tool box?? :D Looks good by the way. I did mine (black, too) about 2-3 weeks ago. Mine doesn't stick 100% right, but close enough................

    Eaton Differential Case Made overseas!

    Mangement sets a cost per car that they want to maintain. Union labor costs more, so that leaves less for parts. In the cost cutting mentality of the Big 3 recently that means that parts keep getting cheaper. I have 2 asian imports in my garage and one American made Ford (the Stang)...

    Eaton Differential Case Made overseas!

    Almost eveything is cast overseas. Many reasons for this. Primarily Labor cost & Environmental. Don't you find it Hypocritial or just plain stupid that the same government that enforces a "Buy American Act" on goverenment projects is just happy as hell to let jobs go overseas???

    No Warranty But on Fords TSB.. FREE?

    TSB's are NOT free if the car is out of warranty. My SVT Contour had a "hooting" noise problem that developed at 20K miles or so. I didn't take it in until 40K miles and they found the TSB that covered it, and offered to perform the service for $300.00. TSB's are not recalls. They are...

    TRACTION LOCK ON 2002 GT

    And the reason that the right wheel spins easier than the right is simple physics. The drive shaft counter-clockwise looking from the back. This is in turn twisting the rear axle by pushing the drivers side tire down and lifting the passenger side wheel up. And this is why it is always...

    Wierd Transmission Leak?

    I pulled the top boot off, and then the rubber isolation boot to get to the top of the shifter. The fluid was simply seeping past the boot that seals the shifter into the transmission. I cleaned it all up and reinstalled it. Hopefully it stops?

    Wierd Transmission Leak?

    I did find the manual on line for the 3650 (I am sure even though you haev a different trannie, the leak we have is probably similar). It definitly isn't the vent / breather. That is up further. Based on the pictures I am seeing, it seem to be on top of the shifter plate. The only way it...

    Wierd Transmission Leak?

    Is it possible that the vent is up there somewhere and this is simply an accumlation of small amount of tranny fluid comming out a vent???

    Wierd Transmission Leak?

    Mine is an '02 with about 4,000 miles on it. I suppose I could take it in under warranty, but I always have bad luck with trips to the dealer. They always seem to damage something. (I am not kidding on this, my list of dealer damage is extensive) The Stang has never been in for any service...

    Wierd Transmission Leak?

    I have noticed a drop of liquid under my car two time over the past few weeks so I decided to investigate. It lined up with the back of the transmission so I thought maybe an output shaft seal, etc..., however, that was real dry. I finally stuck my hand up to the flat surface above the...

    2003-04 2V or 2001 4V??

    I'm voting for new GT. I, too, was faced with that decision, and looked at (5) '99 Cobras (2 years ago). They were all beat to crap. I'm picky and having a really clean GT is more fun for me than a beat up Cobra.
