    Rear Upper and Lower Control arm questions

    Hey Guys, I am going to have to replace the rear control arms on my 94 vert. After almost 200K the bushings are toast. I have been looking at them for a couple of weeks. There is a wide range in prices. I am looking closely at the boxed upper's and lower's from LRS. They appear to...

    The factory 18 inch bullitts may or may not fit... Hey Mustang 2222, I had the same issue. My wife has an 06 pony package vert and I ran across a set of the Factory Ford polished 18's with tires at a price too good to pass up. Everyone said that they would not fit. I never listen, so...

    Why won't my wheels fit?

    I may be completely off base but wasn't MS running the full SN95 front conversion (or something similar)? If so, he would not need to run spacers on his wheels becasue the offset would be correct. I remember that he narrowed the wheels for a better fit. Also, isnt a 68 rear about 2 inches...

    Got My Pig Dyno Tuned Yesterday! Very Happy!

    Hey Guys, The total for the Chip and all of the Dyno pulls was under 400 bucks. This car is an absolute pleasure to drive now! I had considered selling it because of the poor driveability but now it is not going anywhere. The biggest difference came from more fuel and timing. I had...

    Got My Pig Dyno Tuned Yesterday! Very Happy!

    GCom, The idle is pretty decent. Had to bump it up a little to get the cleanest idle possible. I had it at about 800. Sounded great but it would NOT hot idle at all. Now it is about 950. You can still hear the cam but it is not quite as rough any more. It was worth it though...

    Hey guys, My wife's 66 coupe's air decided not to work the other day. Since it is 95 plus here she has been relegated back to her saturn. She is not too happy about that. I figure that it is low on freon. I was able to score 3 cans of r-12 and the hoses but the cans say "to use gas...
