    coasting downhill in neutral...

    I've heard this too, that on decel your fuel injectors are basically closed unlike at idle.

    Nasty

    ship them out ? To where ? Public auction ? Dealers ? E-Bay sellers ? Obviously they'll have a salvaged title ? More info please. 700 hp in a car that's been pieced back together ? Is that safe ?

    So should Ford get rid of the Shelby Stangs and bring back the Cobra?

    doubtful Ford would drop an iconic name and the person who put Ford on the performance map in the 60's. It's a huge money maker and a huge brand. All the peripheals probably account for millions of dollars a year to Ford, sweatshirts, wheels, spoilers, on and on and on. Having a halo vehicle to...

    do I need an adjustable panhard bar

    your rear axle will be kicked over to the left (drivers side) when you lower your car. But the very nature of your rear end set up is a compromise at best, so it's only exactly centered at some point. Whether that be when you're in it, when it's empty, whatever. When you lower it more than and...

    Performance Chips Question

    actually it fools the computer into enrichening the fuel mixture a bit like when the engine is cold and it's just started. They're .2 cents worth of resistor in a plastic box. If you look some more on fleabay you'll see guys advertising up to 300 hp and 100 mpg. It's all crap, it's almost...

    Where do you live?

    there is quite a few San Diego folks over on the Black Mustang forum. I've seen quite a few outings going on lately for your area. Having a black stang is not a requirement BTW; West - BMC Forums - Black Mustang Club

    Buying an S197 ?

    true, I was thinking of just centrifugal s/c's for some reason, just had that picture in my mind. 500 hp to you, to someone who knows what they're doing is not the same as the average person, especially someone who's 'thinking" of buying an S197 and supercharging it. It's all about the tune...

    what's your "my color"?

    what's your "my color"?

    the part is about $275 used, you have to send your old gauge cluster in and you also have to have your odometer set to the actual mileage. Most cars have the extra wiring needed to change to mycolor, some don't. If you do it's a pretty easy swap. But you also get 2 extra gauges.

    wheel hop!!!!!

    probably won't have any wheel hop after you lower it. It changes the angle of the LCAs enough to get rid of most of it. It will make your autox handling suffer however. If you plan to drag and road course you'll need to think about some LCAs and an adj UCA. I wouldn't buy frame connectors for...

    Hurst Billet Shifter - Latest edition

    without Linda Vaughn Hurst just aint the ****zle. The Hursts are always having problems, making noise, falling apart. Save your money and buy the MGW or Pro 5.0

    Where can I get a copy of my original Window Sticker?

    tried it with my 05 and my 06, neither would work. Got the same error message as listed above.

    Buying an S197 ?

    for what you'll have to spend on a s/c and forged internals to make 500 hp you'd be better off and save $$$ by buying a GT500. Gonna be iffy on a stock motor @500 hp.

    Buying an S197 ?

    true, but most guys who go F/I have to buy an earlier intake so they can put in charge motion delete plates if you don't want to put the plugs in the newer ones. The 2 piece plugs are only a nuisance once, until you swap in 1 piece plugs right ?

    How to Fix the Annoying Wheel Hop

    part of it is the flimsy upper and lower controls arms that come stock. They have a lot of flex to give a better, less harsh ride. And part of it is geometry. Lowered cars don't hop because the LCA geometry is changed. The rear mount being lower than the front mount of the LCAs. Good for drag...

    why can't Ford make Green colors...

    I think it was Sammy Hagar the red rocker who said; 'there's 2 colors, red and ugly". Not sure that's an actual Hagar quote, and I've also heard it relation to cars, but whoever said it about sports car was pretty close to the truth.

    why can't Ford make Green colors...

    it's not misleading. Dealerships order which colors sell. They order more whites and silver cars because more people buy white and silver cars. If they ordered 10 green and the other ten spread amongst other colors, they'd sell 11 cars. 10 other colors and 1 green. I like green, I like alot...

    Speed-o-meter?

    have you tried the speedometer check things along side the highway ? Other than taking it to a speedo shop that's your only other option. All factory speedos vary, some more, some less.
