    Which Brand?

    MM parts are GREAT, and given the choice I almost always go with them, but really, sub-frame connectors are just pieces of square tubing. Having them put on correctly is probably much more important than what company cut up the tubing and shipped it to you. ;)

    How Much $ Would It Take To Make A Sn95 Outperform A New 5.0?

    if the only tool you know how to use is a credit card then buy a new car...if you like to play with cars then buy an older one and work on it... I am so sick of many here that always answering the question with "buy xxx instead of modifying"...sigh, I guess it is just another part of our...

    What Would You Buy If Starting From Scratch?

    my .02...if you are doing it as a hobby and are comfortable with and enjoying wrenching, then go with the SN-95 and spend some time and money making it exactly what you want...if OTOH you just want it done you are probably better off with a newer Mustang.

    Thoughts On Mustang Fake Hood And Side Scoops

    well... ;) they were open, but I don't think there was much of an actual "function" going on. Unless you added some ducting to the rear brakes and even then, any sort of improvement would be next to impossible to measure...

    Thoughts On Mustang Fake Hood And Side Scoops

    and yet they still did absolutely NOTHING to help the performance of the car...but they did let some smoke out the scoop when you did a burnout ;)

    Thoughts On Mustang Fake Hood And Side Scoops

    they are there for a reason....to make the car look better. just like the "wing", or chrome wheels, or any number of other things nobody ever has an issues with. But for some reason people get their undies in a bunch because of cosmetic side scoops (that have been on Mustangs since the very...

    Engine 2000 Gt Engine Overheating, Help Me Diagnose Please. *video And Pictures*

    Cracked intake manifold :-\ ...it is a common problem. You need a new manifold with the aluminum water cross-over...it is a simple job.

    What Ever Happened To The Good Ole Days?

    I think it has as much to do with the factories squeezing a lot more out of the engine to begin with as it is does the cost. There isn't as much left to get with basic bolt-ons as there used to be, And when you figure in the hassles of emission controls and working with electronic tuning rather...

    Mach 1 Gauge Cluster In Gt

    I have a Mach1 cluster in my car. It works fine, I had to change the backing piece (?) to get the mileage right...it has been 6 or 8 years so I don't remember the exact procedure, but it was no huge deal.

    Emergency Brake Assembly Tore Out Of Floorpan

    I had that happen too...I fixed it with a couple big fender washers bent to (sort of) match the curve of the trans tunnel on the top and bottom and a nut and bolt to hold it together I don't remember the exact set up, it happened maybe 10 years ago...

    Reupholster 98 GT seats

    the seats aren't really interchangeable from side to side; the latch and seat belt guide attachments will be on the wrong side among other things. I'm pretty sure the 98 and earlier are glued on, but I am not certain about that. TPI Products has new foam for 98s and mechanically attached...
