    That sound like a solid plan but I still need to know what to buy, I KNOW I'm missing SOMETHING, more like A LOT of things!! BTW: I'm sure I can do it, I've done similar installs before....I just want to make sure I don't miss anything....I'm not too worried about the install. -Mike

    Noisy throw out or pilot bearing

    Sound like your clutch is packing up for a vacation. My GT did that for a while then my clutch blew out, it took a long time but that's what happened. My Centerforce is doing that again too, I went through two Centerforces...I'll never buy a Centerforce again! -Mike

    Roush Hey Guys,New member here....

    Damn, I hate Saleens with any wheels other than the stock ones but man...those BBS wheels are nice!! They really match with the car! I give you the utmost props!! I might have to look into BBS for some wheels for my faux-Saleen. Time to slap on a blower or turbo soon, huh? :hail2: BTW: Did...

    ATTN: Those with SALEEN front bumpers

    I have seen some foglights on a Sallen front bumper, it doesn't look too good....looks kinda like it's just "there," foglights just don't seem to fit on the Saleen front end, IMO. -Mike

    96 GT Heads and cam install questions.....

    I bought a set of used SHM heads and cams and I'm in the process of installing them.....now, the heads are aluminum....and the stock GT block is cast-iron (right?) since cast-iron doesn't expand as much as aluminum when heated, is this going to cause any major problems? I don't think it would...

    Mods for a 96 4.6

    Get some PI Heads! ASAP! But if that's a little too pricey, 4.10 gears REALLY wake the little 4.6L up and a good exhaust is a must. I'd also recommend a better shifter i.e. Steeda Tri-Ax or a Pro 5.0. Other than that, I'd say start planning. If you are planning a blower, don't waste the cash on...

    Finally Got me A Mustang!!!

    Congrats! 1996 is a good year (no matter what anyone tells you!). I've never owned a Vert but I'm sure that are a couple draw backs i.e. louder road noise, colder weather, yada yada yada.....but y'know what? The positives SERIOUSLY out-weigh the negatives. When summer hits you'll be looking for...

    How To Install A Vortech On Tv

    But, just to kinda justify Horsepower TV, the 96 Stang was not intercooled (or aftercooled like they wanted to do) and the car wasn't properly dyno tuned. However, even after all dyno tuning and intercooling it still doesn't justify spending $3,500 (not counting the price of an intercooler and...

    How To Install A Vortech On Tv

    Yowza! Alright. Thanks! Well, looks like I found somewhere to dump my cash. The new heads have a different manifold, correct? I had the Ford recall done to my car (the recall where the intake manifold 1st runner is replaced with an aluminum one) But is the the newer manifold that I have the 99...

    How To Install A Vortech On Tv

    How To Install A Vortech On Tv

    Hey I just heard something! That Mustang on Horsepower TV also has headers, cat-back exhaust, and a couple of other mods and it made only 204 horsepower pre-blower. My 96 made 200.4 horsepower with cat-back and BBK off-road X-Pipe, THATS IT! I also have 4.10 gears and a Steeda shifter but those...

    How To Install A Vortech On Tv

    I did exactly the same thing! Is it me or does 82 horsepower for $3,500 sound like a kick in the nads? Even without the non pi-heads? Thats pathetic!! I'm starting to get REALLY pissed about buying a 1996 Mustang!!! :mad: :bang:
