    well my **** is now in storage, now a long winter to think about spring

    heh, screamin ... your location still says jax, fla. where are you now? not much snow here in DC, but jan and feb can get pretty dang cold. the fairlane will most likely stay in the garage, unless it is nice out. not enough room in there for another car, so the stang will be in the...

    Vert to doesn't set down even sometimes

    hmmm, thinking about it, it might be the fairlane that i have had the "junk in my trunk" problem. they don't have anything separating the place where the top comes down from the rest of the trunk. i don't remember off the top of my head how it is in the '95, but the 95s and the 99s are...

    Your car knows you...

    heh, i look at it the other way ... to me, the car is the stupid, fussy thing and i have to know its quirks to drive it ok. when other people drive it, the stupid thing does the same crap, but they haven't learned how to deal with it. luckily, over time, i have been able to get mine so it...

    wheel hop. differential chatter, maybe clutch chatter?

    i don't think anything ... only that wheel hop is apparently pretty common without quads, and putting the quads back on has been known to fix it. it seems possible to me that whatever condition results in it for other cars may have developed over time on your car as well (which is 16-17 years...

    wheel hop. differential chatter, maybe clutch chatter?

    if it were me, i'd put the quads back on and see if that helps. can you not have them on because your wheels are too wide? check post #15 here: Wheel hop with no quad shocks. Fix? - Ford Mustang Forums : Corral.net Mustang Forum

    forged pistons are known to be kinda noisy when the engine is cold. might you have forged pistons?

    New engine start up

    is it still a 302? if so, it should run, but definately stay out of boost until you get a tune for it. otherwise, you'll probably be taking it apart again!

    Want 35 more hp

    if the sole goal is simply 35 more horses, i agree with kurt that just an intake will most likely get you there. why not try that first and then re-evaluate?

    no throttle response, sporatic idle

    yeah, 25-28 is about 10 psi too low. around 38-39 is much closer to what it should be

    Want 35 more hp

    you are ... sorry ... like kurt said, if you look at them side by side, you would be able to see it. remember Tom Moss? i wonder if he will see this thread and drop some his wisdom on us. http://tmossporting.0catch.com/

    Intake question

    said in a way that sounds like that actually happened to you ... :shrug:

    Want 35 more hp

    it may be that the fox design does not flow better, but: with a fox setup, you can get a throttle body made by accufab which, for a given size, is reported to flow better than other throttle bodies of the same size.
