    Progress Thread 1990 Lx 5.0 Dark Titanium "one Last Ride"

    A few questions for those who've restored their titanium interiors: As mentioned, I have the gutted interior from the car at my house other than the carpet which I trashed as it was nasty and stunk due to the mice that were in it. I'm going to clean up what I have but I may need to do some...

    Progress Thread 1990 Lx 5.0 Dark Titanium "one Last Ride"

    Been a while since I've posted an update. This past Saturday was the first time I was able to get over there for two weeks. The Saturday before we went with my friend, the shop owner, to pick up and install his new 4 post lift for his home... I added some more fresh fuel and dug into why the...

    SN95 Regear And Differential Rebuild

    There's a lot of decent tech documents out there so it can be done depending on your abilities. There are some tools you need to have to do it right so I think many (Including myself a few times) take it somewhere. It's not so much difficult as much as it requires having the correct tools and...

    Blower On Stock 302

    I've been out of the blower scene on these cars for a while, but totally agree with everyone here. Avoid FMU and go with 255 or something larger. 42's should take you where you need to unless there's better options. Skip the underdrives and the intake will be good to have. Start researching...

    4 Post Lift Vs Quickjack

    Just helped a friend install his new Atlas Garage Pro which is identical to the DL one I put in 10 years ago. Not too much has changed, but the price if you can pick up is 2195. It took 4 of us to remove the ram ramp and took 3-4 hours putting it together. If you don't want the extra height...

    4 Post Lift Vs Quickjack

    Never heard of the brand you linked to. Looks a lot like Direct Lift which has had a decent rep for 10 years now. Garage Journal forums a great place to research lifts.

    4 Post Lift Vs Quickjack

    I'd recommend going to a four post lift vs the quick lifts. You're not really getting enough use to make it worth while. 4 posts usually have wheels so you can wheel the car outside your garage too depending on your location/grade. I've had a Direct Lift 4 post for 9-10 years now. It's...

    Yes, that's on the list. From the repairs, they put in the ones with no holes so I need to make an opening. I actually have the other part of the BBK cold air kit but no hole to put it in!

    Pics of it now. Fender molding trim that's missing will be painted as well. I have new trim for the entire outside of the car ready to go on when the shop's done with it. It needed an ignition switch that we replaced last week. Not sure why they took the dash apart but it may make it easier...

    Progress Thread 1990 Lx 5.0 Dark Titanium "one Last Ride"

    This is the first post on here in a very long time. Maybe 10 years? I had a 93 GT that was featured in MM&FF in 02 and 5.0 and Super Fords in 03. Picked up an 89 LX auto so the wife could drive in 2003. Miss both of those cars but I moved to an 03 Cobra and got pretty bored of the hobby and...

    03 Cobra exhaust upgrade HELP!!!!!!

    The 3" MAC is louder. Stay away from the headers unless you go Whipple or Kenne Bell blower. The lt's will give you some power, but the car should be re-tuned and then you got more money to spend. Get yourself the cat pipe of your choice with the 3" Mac.

    Maple Grove Ford Show? Who went?

    Didn't miss much and the test and tune's are way more crowded. Better chance of getting more runs yesterday than at the test and tune.

    Maple Grove Ford Show? Who went?

    Yes, MG supposedly was tired of the NMRA for reasons I do not know. Its been really dead the past several years. But you should've brought you car to the show on Sun!

    Afco Radiator? Need some one that runs it

    Just seen this. I have one. You have to modify the hose. My radiator is 98 vintage and they have changed it slightly. Talking to one of the vendors at the show, he mentioned another ford vehicle is a directi fit bottom hose. The upper should match right up. Obviously the stock hold downs...

    need help with dccontrol fan

    You're so right! Not paying any attention to what I was saying. The neck opening is after the thermostat. Sorry for the bad info! My basis is that the fitting in the neck was before the stat (engine side), which would make sense if thermostats fit between the hose and the rad. neck lol! I...

    need help with dccontrol fan

    With the sensor in the rad. neck, it sees what the engine is. If its not opening, the gaues rises and shows the motor getting hot. Not sure the logic you guys have with that: no matter where you put a sensor on the engine the gauge will show increased temps. Granted, if a stat is stuck open...
