    Melbourne area stangs

    Ditto that. But the past couple weeks I've been back, I've gotten nasty overtime. 14 hours this past week. :nice:

    So far, looks like Ivan is headed for the west coast. We'll probably get raked by some rain and light winds, but that's it.

    Calling all AOD guys, Shift Points??

    Letting off the gas before grabbing OD? Hmm. Mine has bumped line pressure...but it shifts weird/thunks into Overdrive without throttle. With steady throttle, it will hit Overdrive too hard and bounce. Hasn't eaten it up yet and it's been this way for over a year now...but you can feel when...

    Calling all AOD guys, Shift Points??

    I *want* to say you've got the AOD-E, but I'm not positive. You might still have the standard issue AOD....it'd be better to get an AOD cause you could get one of those B&M transpak plug in units or something of the like...and change shift points and firmness with just that unit. AOD's, you...

    Plywood is pretty much sold out...it's very hard to get a hold of. And most stores are closed by now. Duct tape, we called like 6 or 8 different places and they had sold it all out by now. Gas is also hard to get. GOod luck!

    Yep, I'm riding it out at my aunt's house since she's got storm shutters. Our house......we have duct tape on a couple windows, that's about it. We're sooooo screwed!

    Calling all AOD guys, Shift Points??

    102,000? That's nothing! I'm at 160,000! BEAT THAT! Haha oh and I know there are ways that I COULD break it...but I've been trying to break it without BLATANTLY tryng to break it, killing my engine in the process, or totally disabling the trans to the point that the car has to get towed...

    Calling all AOD guys, Shift Points??

    I use 1-d-1 all the time. Of course I've discovered that there is nothing I can physically do to this ancient AOD to blow it up. I need an excuse for a new tranny but I'm in debt...so I can't buy one unless I have to. I've neutral dropped it a little bit...1-D-1 shuffle all the time.....I...

    Calling all AOD guys, Shift Points??

    I lock mine into 1st, manually shift it into 2nd by flicking it up to D, then going back down to 1 again to hold it in 2nd...then put it back up into D again. That technique, with my 150,000+ mile AOD is good for 13.7 passes...I can't complain! Never use OD for racing. If your trans will even...

    TV adjusting shift points...why transgo then?

    Well, the TV is not the correct way to do this for a few reasons. 1, yes it will firm shifts up and raise shift points generally, but it will also make the car more kickdown sensitive and the transmission will get jumpy. Also, bumping the line pressure at the cable will tend to cause seal...

    VENT : I can't stand this shop sometimes

    I'd demand compensation for the time delay. Like, major monetary discounts off labor charges. It's a shame you dont have on paper or verbal recording that they said it would be done by a certain time...cause then you could say you'd sue their asses for breach of contract or something. Goes to...

    Bassani vs Flowmaster

    My exhaust is hitting a fuel line bracket right now due to a hanger problem. You think that one small fuel line bracket could be the cause of so much crappy noise?

    Cam selection?

    You make a very good point, man. I think the best argument is what we've covered right here: Pick a good match of parts, set it up properly, tune it up, and you'll be good to go. You don't wanna be running 1 3/4 headers with a 2 inch exhaust, and Victor Jr heads. :D

    Cam selection?

    Tuneup is what makes you pass the sniffer, not necessarily what parts you've got. I know guys running NON-EMISSIONS CERTIFIED parts that have passed the sniffer with FLYING COLORS, because they did the tuneup from hell before the test....

    BBK SSI intake

    BEAUTIFUL looks.....awesome runner design. 3 choices in uppers???? I want to have SEX with that intake. For the price...it will be the next to supercede my Cobra, that's for sure. This Cobra is old, ugly, and tired....... Not to mention it doesn't hold up anymore performance-wise.

    VENT : I can't stand this shop sometimes

    God this reminds me of the shop I had to deal with when getting my new motor... Gene's Auto.... I go in for a head and cam swap...find out old motor is trashed, so I decide to order a short block. Pick up short block, and my used 2.02/1.9 heads, the intake valve wont clear the pistons w/o...

    Bassani vs Flowmaster

    I'm almost positive I've got a leak, but I cannot find it for the life of me. Not only do I have the 1800-2200 rpm drone...but on the interstate, it drones, chatters, rattles, and reverbs all the way between 1800 rpms and 3000 rpms!! Thats over 1000 rpms of HORRIFIC NOISE!! All the Mustang...

    Bassani vs Flowmaster

    Lol yes....well I've got the X pipe and I've heard a LOT of foxes...but I haven't heard one locally that drones quite as bad as mine. It's to the point that, at that rpm, you can no longer hear the exhaust note. AT ALL. No more exhaust, no more engine tone, just NOTHING but drone and reverb...

    Total Nightmare

    Sorry about your luck dude..I know how that goes. My electric took a ***** when I was on the interstate. Got off, temp shot up so I pulled it over as quick as I could. Never maxed the gauge out, but she got up to about 250 or so...enough to have a major coolant boilover, but thats it. I...
