    Need Fiberglass Panel Info

    A hood would be nice because I will keep the stock look. I do not like cowels because they obscure the view, and fiberglass will obviously be lighter than stock.

    Need Fiberglass Panel Info

    I am thinking about doing some simple body stuff to my car before I send it off to get it painted. I want to get a stock fiberglass hood, maybe fiberglass fenders, but I doubt they reduce weight that much, and I am really curious if any company makes fiberglass doors. I had to take out my...

    Coolant Change For My 1986 GT

    I need some advice on how to do this. I have replaced heads, rear control arms, longtubes, and all sorts of other not fun stuff, but I have never drained my coolant. I noticed my overflow tank is really low, and the last time it was done was back in Dec of 2003 when I replaced the heads and...

    need pictures of wheel/ tire combo fox 5 lug

    99 Cobra's in the rear and OZ Monte Carlo's in the front. The rears are 245/45/17 and the fronts are 255/40/17. I was just testing to see if my auto-x slicks rubbed on the front, so no, I do not roll with bigger tires up front and mismatched rims. OZ's Brakes.

    5 Lug Fox Experts In Here Please

    Well, my 85 Lincoln Town Car MC took a crap on me. I discovered leaking fluid this past weekend. So now the time has come for sure to do this. After I wrote this, I put Cobra’s in the rear. So now I have Cobra’s in the front and rear, and adj. Pro. Por valve, an 85 TC MC and the stock...

    So I bought slicks for the front

    I am running the Kumho Victoracers because I got the wheels and tires for 345.00 bucks. The tires alone through tirerack would have set me back 170 each, so I feel I will burn these off and get some of the Kumho's you suggested. I noticed a huge difference with the fronts. Not sure about...

    So I bought slicks for the front

    ....and for the rear lolz. The wheels are OZ Monte Carlo’s with Kumho VictorRacer Tires. The reason I got 99 Cobra’s is I liked this wheel back in the day…like 8 years ago back in the day, but they were too spendy, so I finally got some, but they will be used to run these slicks. I run an...

    Which Headers Will Fit? BBK Equal or Un-Equal?

    Get longtubes. Make a big difference.

    Longtube headres melted a 4 wire plug, please help.

    Well, after I put in longtubes, I checked everything over and all seemed well. I was wrong. On the driver side header, basically right above the middle of the collector, there is a plug. It is round with 4 wires going into each plug and it connects under the car. The plug is goes by the...

    The Best headers for the job...

    Oh, and BTW, stay away from MAC, they use a single flange design. They go one fine but if you ever take them off, good luck putting them back on.

    The Best headers for the job...

    IMO do not waste money on short tubes. Get BBK LT's. I bought them with a matching h pipe and locking header bolts with o2 extensions for 470 shipped. They fit great and I noticed a gain in torque. I had short tubes.

    Smog pump removal, FMS A/C Delete. New belt routing idea.

    I have not tried it yet. All of my stuff is still on the car. This is what some people are saying though, how it may rub. How do I check to see if the tensioner is working to it's fullest? http://www.tcstangs.com/forum/showthread.php?t=37739

    Smog pump removal, FMS A/C Delete. New belt routing idea.

    I know without the AC on it just freewheels and does not suck up any power. I am not doing this for a power gain. I want this stuff gone because my A/C has never worked, and I drive the car so little, I could care less. A little bit is for the weight. Why keep stuff in the car when it is not...

    Smog pump removal, FMS A/C Delete. New belt routing idea.

    The FMS kit reomves the A/C and uses a special bracket that relocates it to where the A/C once was. I dunno why, but I am not going to "blaze my own trail" and try a different way. Ford spends Billions on R&D, and if they say this is correct, I'm not going to doubt them.

    Smog pump removal, FMS A/C Delete. New belt routing idea.

    I am about to do the no smog pump and FMS A/C bracket moving the PS pump up. I have been looking at the diagrams on the net to do the short belt, with multiple people saying multiple belt sizes to do this mod. I had a friend do this and say that the belt rubbed on itself when it went from the...

    FMS 5 lug cobra conversion kits?

    well the only reason I say this is he put 99+ calipers, and the price he got them seems really cheap, or he got a smokin deal on them.

    Brke Booster Upgrade for Fox Brake Conversion

    I thought all SN95 boosters were the same size? Hmmm, Crap, I just bought a booster for my car…last thing I need to do as far as the brakes go. I am not sure which year it came out of. All I know is that this is a huge bitch!

    Smog and A/C delete. Need belt size.

    The FMS kit moves the PS pump in place of the A/C.

    Brke Booster Upgrade for Fox Brake Conversion

    Really? Why only 94-95? If I am running 10th anniversary fronts and Cobra rears, they are preety much the same from 94-04. Why would a booster from those other years not work?
