    Stopping shipping out the 05's??

    Check Brad's site. Job one Sticky. A ford employee has been reporting every day what's going on. Starting on page 9. I think those reports are bogus. :bs:

    Pressures, temps, and Timing...

    Your water temp is good from 190-220. Oil pressure as a general rule is 10psi for every 1000rpm. Your total advance should be in that 32-34 range at 2500 or more. Does depend on your cam. Your idle sounds close 600-1000 is good. Again cam size, stall converter speed, etc

    Yow! Using Oil!

    If your compression & leak down tests are good you can try a heavier oil like 20w-50. This will slow down your usage.

    What stall torque convertor?

    For most street cars some where around 2500-3000 works good. Street & strip higher. Track car still higher.

    460 in a 2005 Mustang?

    You still can't do it buying a new car for 35K. Base V6 20K. Now put all the stuff you need to make it go & stop, 35K won't make it happen.

    460 in a 2005 Mustang?

    Your going to need a lot more then 35K to build that car. A 600-700hp motor alone will cost most of that. Save your money for the Cobra, etc., should have 450-500hp, modify that to get you 600-700hp.

    Crate '69 Camaro soon Crate '67 Mustang FB?!

    There goes my idea of buying the steel parts separately. If I remember correctly the complete glass body was about $2500. Buy one of those glass body 67's, weighs only 100lb, get a used tube frame car, put the minimal street legal items for a kit car, & you have a 10sec street car. :banana:

    New to Mustangs! Need some help...

    Your battery may be good & you have other problems. If you have or can get a load test meter that will determine if your battery is good. If not pull it out & bring it to a Autozone, Advanced, Pep Boys & they can test it. I think you can get a cheap battery for about $40.

    2005 Mustang = poor quality?

    About every 5 years a new stang comes out so I guess by using your reasoning you will never buy a new stang. Maybe that's a good thing.

    Engine sputters and stalls like out of gas

    The shorter the wire the lower your resistance should be. Set your ohm meter to the thousand setting. As you see your new wire is about 1/2 of the old. 4300 sounds OK for your new wire. Less resistance will give you a better spark. Check the rest of your wires since you still have a miss or...

    Check out this site as they can explain it better I can. http://www.familycar.com/alignment.htm Alignment can be a very personal thing in the sense that it makes a big difference in how the car feels & what it does. Road race, drag race will use different specs. Even street settings can...

    Engine sputters and stalls like out of gas

    Test the wire you took off with an ohm meter & let us know what number you get. On the tires. If you have significant wear after only 300mi you have something way out of wack. Either your toe or camber is excessive, or you have a component that is NG. Don't do shocks & springs till you figure...
