    Painting Pony Wheels, how to, need ideas...

    I agree that the Duplicolor sucks. I thought it was just me, but it seemed real dull. I guess maybe I should have tried the argent silver that is supposed to be an exact match to the factory color. I only tried it on one of wheel of set of 03 cobra replicas I had laying around instead of messing...

    Fuel and Coolant Temp Gauge

    Last time I changed the fuel filter, I unplugged the "inertia switch" in the trunk, then started the car and waited for it to stop on its own. This is supposed to relieve the pressure. There was still a lot of fuel that came pouring out, so be careful. Sean

    Shaving body mollding?

    IMO, I don't think it works on an LX either. The "molding look" that is part of the bumper covers would throw off the "shaved" look. Also, I believe there is a groove along the sides where the molding is attached, visible once the molding is removed. Sean

    Yes, you can take it apart and clean/sand the brushes. I had the same problem, and now it works like a champ. Also look at this thread http://forums.stangnet.com/showthread.php?t=565604 Sean

    Convertible top problems, need help with troubleshooting/new install.

    springs, shocks, struts from '02 GT

    Thanks for the reply. Do 1" longer shocks make any ride height difference? How about the struts and springs? I am looking for a better ride until I can buy a better set-up. I was hoping that this 02 stuff I have just sitting around could be of some use to me. I guess I might just have to install...

    springs, shocks, struts from '02 GT

    Just wondering if the '02 stock stuff from my '02 GT would be an improvment over the worn out stock '91 stuff. I am not sure what the difference in ride height would be and even if all the mounts are the same. Anyhow, If anybody has done this swap please let me know how the installation was and...

    My personal price comparison, 347 vs 351

    Can you please expand on this comment, because I was thinking of putting forged pistons in my stock block. I dont have a good reason, but I thought they were just lighter and stronger. Would the hyperutectic pistons work for a N/A 351 build-up. Thanks Sean
