    Build Thread '83 T-top Coupe - Welding Holes in My Rear

    Great... Now I have to walk back to my shop to take a picture of the hood of my 85'. Wait, that's up on the lift and the 84 is parked underneath of it and doesn't run. I will peruse my pictures to see what I can dig up but I like the idea of a metallic gray for the letters. That is if I'm...

    Thanks Mike, I was going to make it hydraulically actuated but I don't feel like getting into running a new remote switch and hydraulic hoses just yet. The plow came with the cylinders so maybe one day I'll upgrade. Feel free to stop over an take it for a spin. Please wait until is -2...

    Who Gets To Say, "i Told You So"?

    Did you use the correct primer and glue? Typically this is where I see most glue joint failures, in selecting the incorrect primer or glue. I prefer copper too as I mentioned on your FB post, I have about 100' of copper in my shop and wouldn't have considered doing it any other way. Not that...

    Oil Pan Needs Replaced. Tubular K-member Questions.

    ^^ ^^ This is exactly how I would do it I personally would use the UPR K member. If you are set on re using the stock control arms and springs you can do that providing you buy upper spring perches and are willing to grind on the back side of the stock lower control arms to proper clearance...

    New Tires, Alignment. Car Pulls Right

    I've heard of the 4 subframe bolts needing to be loosened to square a subframe that is askew, for this reason alone I installed the Steeda locators. They were 20 some dollars if I remember correctly and now I can remove the subframe and reinstall without worry of re aligning the car

    Just Bought A Procharger D1 Help Please

    As mentioned above, bracket and pulley spacing is completely different for SN95 cars. I have very limited info on the procharger stuff and even further limited resources. Had this been a Vortech I could get you every last nut bolt and washer required along with the install instructions...

    So the roll bar isn't in yet? I mean wtf is taking so long? If it were me it would be a 10 point tucked in the corners, it is your life afterall if you want to make a 150mph blast at the track. If you are properly restrained in your seat and you are involved in an accident what is the...

    99 V6 Mustang With Vortech Supercharger Loosing Boost Past 5500rpm

    Do you have the waste gate plumbed to a boost controller or is it simply relying on the spring? Personally I would put a 2lb spring in the gate and plumb it into a boost controller, the spring keeps it closed and the boost pressure the blower creates will seat the valve as the boost pressure...

    99 V6 Mustang With Vortech Supercharger Loosing Boost Past 5500rpm

    Please post pictures of the setup, wastegate on a centrifugal car is not typical although it has increased in popularity last few years with the coyote cars to boost the tq numbers. Also, 35 shot of Nitrous? Don't waste your time... Look at possible belt slip, check for a beat tensioner...

    427w Engine Build

    What head gaskets are on the motor? Fuel system components? I see no issue at all running this with the YSI, personally I wouldn't hesitate to put 14-16 lbs of boost to this thing to see 1,000 hp, that is so long as the the fuel system is capable.

    Air Filter

    Not as much a special engine as specific emissions regulations, California has a legitimate Smog issue as far as air pollution goes and they are trying to mitigate this by holding auto makers to higher emissions standards. They are the only state in the US that has more stringent emissions...
