    400 hp 5.0!!

    I just read an article from a source called the left lane on the muscle car forum. It said they have spotted ford mustang test mules running around the streets of Detroit sporting the all new 5.0 ford mod V-8. It has 400 hp and 400 foot pounds and is to replace the 4.6 in 2010. Even with 100...

    High Flow cats on stock Hpipe

    Sure it can be done if you find a shop willing. The law says your not to remove a functioning cat. Even though you are replacing it with a cat, some shops are finiky about the law.

    An old guy's reunion.

    Let me start off by saying that as a young man I loved and raced mustangs. In high school I was a ford fanatic, to the point they called me ford boy or FOMOCO. I had several old mustangs, but the last year of high school I had my fastest. It was a 68 fastback GT with a 428 CJ, 4-speed top loader...

    So my parents and I traded cars for a few months...

    These cars do remind you so much of the old ones. I hadn't owned a mustang since my 68 gt fastback in 79. When I saw the new S-197, I had to have one. It was my chance to own a new 68 again, at least close enough. What surprised me was how fast they were, I thought the old muscle cars days were...

    No boss for the F-150.

    I just read in my latest edition of four wheeler magazine that the boss engine has been canceled for the F-150. So whats the chances of us getting any variant of it, nill to none. At best we'll get a stroked 3 valve 5.0 with a whooping 350 hp if were lucky. I'll for sure stick with my 07 and...

    Audio Upgrades

    My stock system is loud enough, if I was 20 years younger it might not be. You can only stand Meatloaf and Boston so loud with a touch of Aerosmith and Bob Seiger hee hee.

    big guy in a little mustang possible?

    There's plenty of room inside the car, my biggest problem is getting into it. I'm use to trucks, with the stang, you have to step down into it, where as with a truck, you climb up into it. I'm only 5'7" and 200lb's, but I am 49 now and have to bend some to get in. However once inside it's fine...

    Big Daddy Cold Air Intake?

    There's not much point in getting a cai without the tune. The tune is what really gives the power bump you seek. The programer can reset your shift points on an automatic trans, correct the speedo for a gear swap or taller tires and let you get the most benifit from higher octane gas or make...

    K&n cai

    I would replace the K&N cone filter with a dryflow from AEM. Indeoendant testing has shown that K&N filters don't filter well, thier flow is great, but they let too much dirt through. Also the dryflow doesn't require oiling, ford mafs hate oil on them as we all know.

    Old pullies and gears

However there maybe some, there maybe some guy's who have the 3:31's that would like to move up a little, but not much because of gas prices. I'ld ask a...

    opinions on t-birds

    If your dead set on a stick, your gonna have to get a super or turbo coupe. There the only t-birds with a manual tranny. There were no manual cougers in the rear wheel drives unless you go back to the 60's and 70's. The front wheel drive couger they made a couple of years ago had the manual...

    What Mustang Should I Purchase?

    I think I would compare payments between new and used, ford is offering killer interest rates and rebates now, I don't know how much on the stangs. Mid summer has allways been a good time to buy as there moving thier old inventory to make room for the new model year. Yeah, for sure it would...
