    My 88 GT budget build...Project Garbage Pile

    nice build. good to see a down to earth one every now and again. paint the whole thing rustoleum black for now. it will look sinister. like cstangs before it was blue.

    How does the inside of your stang smell?

    guy that owned mine before me smoked in it, so if it sits in the sun for a few days it initially smells like a faint smoke smell. but on the regs it smells normal with a hint of sweat. i drove that car every day when i worked at a carwash, left the windows down all the time (never got rain in it...

    best way for 12s?

    any performance shop that has worked on mustangs before should easily be able to put you in the 12s with 15k. dont even tell them 15k. just say i have this car with this motor and this trans and i want 12s. 12.5s at that so they dont just put you at a 12.9. then let them do some calculating and...

    90stang5speed Rear Mounted Turbo Project Thread

    i just read the thread man and i dunno. i do salute you for thinking outside the box, but i think if you have got to have it in the car with you ida put it in the trunk, and facing 90 degrees the other way. so if it does fail then it will just blow to the sides of the car and out the hatch, then...

    best way for 12s?

    thats my idea here. if i had that kinda cash to blow id get a maximum road and track box, a trick flow top end kit, and the m3200 (or whatever it is) ford racing cobra brake 5 lug swap kit, then whatever else you want. thats a fun car. thats 3 kits that cost 2-2.5 thousand each, and are complete...

    What did you do for your Fox today?

    my fan (clutch fan still) seems to turn quite easily when the cars off. i work at advance auto and the one that the system calls for for my car seems to have more resistance. but i cant decide if that resistance isnt felt once you turn the blades (further out) ...hmmm. my late model resto...

    no no no, the car that rear ended me wasnt going fast at all just a nudge, little bit faster than that. the damage to the frame is in the front end when i rear ended another car a while back. i was going like 30-40, and locked up the brakes and slid into another mustang quite hard. thats what...

    the frame shop guy is very down to earth. i talked to him a while back about a jeep and he gave great advice. he said he's slam packed for the next 2 weeks, which is a dissapointment, but he said the driver side shock tower is pushed in some, but it doesent look that bad. we both agreed that...
