    Looking for opinions from people with first hand experience

    The TKO install wasn't the easiest thing to do, but for how it handles the power I wouldn't go any other way. My long tube headers (MAC) interfered with the Tremec aluminum bellhousing in a spot that I had to trip off the bell, but it wasn't an important piece. I never really got any of...

    Had insomnia last night, decided to make a video

    That's the first video I've seen of your car, Paul, and it's pretty awesome! You know, for some reason I had you pegged for 50-something year old... but you don't look 50 :D

    headlights...

    I went eBay hunting for other headlights like that one and it looks like several different eBayers have the same lights. This auction has a picture of the back and it certainly looks like they have the projector shooting the low beam and a regular halogen housing doing the high beam.

    Cannot get tranny to bellhousing bolts loose..any tips?

    They are really that tight? Do you have the car on a hoist or is it up on jackstands? I'd pull the bellhousing off with the transmission attached before I took a torch anywhere near the transmission. It's a pain, but it isn't THAT bad.

    Car Won't Start

    Take your starter to autozone, not the whole car. Is the Stang your only mode of transportation?

    Blower guys come on in!!!

    You can split the block at 450rwhp... The s-trim puts a lot of pressure on the crank/bearings if you don't have a girdle and people have spun bearings after some time running a charger as well. .035 is a good gap for a blown car, and the MSD box will help make sure you don't have any spark...

    headlights...

    I'm also unsure of this. I've been waiting a while for a good aftermarket solution to the not so great lighting that our cars come with. The only vehicle I'm spoiled with HID lighting on is my motorcycle, and I'm absolutely sold on it. I don't want to spend a whole ton of money buying...

    Fuel pressure

    Ya know, mine is like that too... the only problem is that I have a blower and mine doesn't go above 40 or so psi at WOT. I idle anywhere between 29-32 psi, when I free rev it will jump to 40, and when I get into boost it still doesn't go past 40. I know that with each psi of boost the...

    help with removing starter

    I used an extension and it took a good bit of time for that top bolt. In hindsight, I should have tried to put studs on for the next time.

    Anyone used Superchargers4less?

    I got mine from superchargersonline and couldn't be happier. The price was dang good and everything was packed and shipped very, very well. All the pieces, down to the wire ties, were there and it was a good deal. If you go to their site you can get a price quote sent to your e-mail.

    Vortech Oil Pan Fitting Install

    The Vortech kits come with fittings to use from your block where your oil pressure sender is. On a S-trim the feed is on the top and the return is close to the bottom. EDIT: Picture of feed on top: And if you look carefully here you can see the return with the small blue cover on it

    I hate not having internet..

    I'm waiting for the spring rush of people... but spring keeps getting the crap kicked out of it by winter, or so is the story in Michigan. It'll be good to have the regulars back :)

    My 95 is too slow...

    I don't see why adding a supercharger would give a person problems with throwing belts? I never had a problem with losing belts with my Vortech. The NA combo will most likely get better gas mileage, but that isn't necessarily a guarantee either. That really depends on the driver. The lack of a...

    Exhaust Woes

    They would be the air holes on the back of the heads for the SMOG system. Usually people use thermactor plugs to seal them up, some use old spark plugs or whatever, but sometimes they don't seal well. Others have said they left them wide open and had only a minimal amount of air coming out...

    Exhaust Woes

    Do those AFR's have smog holes on the back of the heads? When I removed my smog equipment and turned around that tube to block the ports it didn't seal well enough and managed to leak a good deal of smelly air. How old are your o2 sensors?

    any money wizards out there?

    I think in this case you have to look at things as a want or a necessity. As much as your wife (or you) don't want to hear it, it sounds like your best option is to sell the beach house. There isn't anything that says you can't buy another beach house in a few years when things are looking...
