    An old guy's reunion.

    Let me start off by saying that as a young man I loved and raced mustangs. In high school I was a ford fanatic, to the point they called me ford boy or FOMOCO. I had several old mustangs, but the last year of high school I had my fastest. It was a 68 fastback GT with a 428 CJ, 4-speed top loader...

    Comp cams help make the 400 hp mark.

    Comp cams new series of 3 valve cams is just what the doctor ordered. They use a cam phaser limiter kit to take advantage of the cvt instead of elminating it. They have these cams for bone stock to built engines, n/a or FI. By keeping the cvt, it also allows us to keep our lowend with large mid...

    Problems again!!!

    A couple of weeks ago, I had my 07 GT out and noticed the ABS light was on and the traction control was off, I couldn't get it to turn on by pushing the button. I took it to ford and they replaced a wheel sensor, so they said. The next time I took it out, the same thing happenedm but the light...

    "PINKS"

    Finally Nate Pretchard won on pinks. This is the 3rd time he's been on that I've seen. He first lost his yamaha, then he shows up with a chevy powered 86 olds cutlass and looses it . Today he had a 92 stang and ate up a 96 camero. He jumped on the last race as he did the first one, but they...

    Why is it legal?

    I was wondering why you can't talk about street racing on these forums because it's illegal, but you can talk about pulling off your cats for an offroad pipe which is also illegal. I know people can get hurt or killed street racing, but they also can at the track. The reason I would assume is...

    Cobra emblems

    Will the cobra emblems line up with the holes on a GT fender, I know the pony and bar emblems do. I allways liked the snakes. Also I have a GT/CS, it doesn't have emblems at all, just the CS decal, does anyone know if the holes are still there on a CS?

    Another gear ?

    I was pretty much set on 4:10's, but the more I think about it, I'm wondering if 4:30's would be the better choice. I was thinking back to my boss 302 maverick I built in the late 70's. I started with 4:56 and after I blew my 8", I went to a ford 9 inch with 4:11's. I noticed it had lost a...

They build ford 427 side oilers, 427 sohc, 428CJ's, 390's and I can't remeber exactly what all. They do alot of blocks in aluminum or cast iron. They have the rights to produce...

    mmr 5.8 info needed.

    The mmr cast iron 5.8 short block is only 3,299.99$, thats cheaper than a pro-charger. I was wondering if anyone had any more info on this engine, like weight, hp or torque? It was shy on details, all it said was that your stock componetes will bolt right on and it accepts 2, 3 and 4 valve...

    A 298 3V stroker!!!!

    I just got my latest edition of MM&FF mag. They featured a 4.6 3V stroked to 298 CID that made 352 hp at the wheels. It had common bolt on's with stock cams. In future editions they are going to dyno different cams, but the stockers were easy to tune. The kit is by JDM engineering and is all...

    I'm I the only one ?

    I'm I the only one who remembers the wide tires sticking out a foot on the rear of the old stangs. Thats one of the first mods we would get, would be either a set of gabriel highjacker air shocks or shackles to jack that rearend up and slam a set of 50's under there. Even the kids with the 6...

    S-197 with a boss 351, say it's so!!!

    I just read a Detroit news reprint over at the ford truck site. It talked about future ford engines and transmisions. Such things as the new ford inhouse diesels, hydrogen fuel cells, but the thing that caught my eye was about the boss V-8's. It said the 7 liter V-8 would replace the V-10 in the...
