    CHECK OIL?? the meaning

    Well to be on the safe side check the oil level on the dipstick. It usually has a yellow handle and runs to the oil pan. I get that pesky oil light once a week. Usually what it means is that its a quart low on oil. I add a quart of oil and "bingo," takes care of the pesky light. My rear...

    G Force T-5 upgrade

    I've also been debating on getting a G-Force T5 Kit. It's actually not bad for the price. Plus an extra $260 I think for the small soft parts. Also 5th isnt included, its only 1st - 4th. I really dont wanna swap a million things which is why the G-Force is so convenient. Bolts right up...

    3.73's or 4.10's

    lol! thats funny! Why didnt that happen to me? grrrr. My car is peppy like you said but except that I could do 50 in 1st. By the way, how was that conversion? did you use drums or swap over to rear disks?

    3.73's or 4.10's

    Do you recommend a self installation? I've heard of people taking the task and saying it was a breeze but time consuming.

    3.73's or 4.10's

    Well I guess its not that much of a diff but yeah, every bit counts. Im really not too worried about mileage because most of my driving is city...I would say 95% of the time battling traffic.

    3.73's or 4.10's

    Well it's a daily driver with occasional trips down the interstate so I guess I'm leaning towards the 3.73's. The car pulls real nice with my stocker 2.73's so I'm expecting a better pull with the gear swap. With my stock gears I do 2000 at 80 mph. Like a few of you mentioned the 2.95 1st...

    3.73's or 4.10's

    I have the 3.27 1st gear 5 speed ratio right now but I will be rebuilding a WC T5 with the 2.95 1st so I'm sort of afraid that I'll have a 1st gear thats way too short. Also I'll be spraying soon and I'll have a blower in the not so near future.

    irwindale speedwayyyy

    I think its only LACR does that because it gets fu#cking cold up there with ice on the track. But I could be wrong. Well I guess that would also gimme even more time to get sum ore goodies. Oh and it'll also give Zerocool more time to break something else lol. hows that clutch zero!

    irwindale speedwayyyy

    Well since everyone has finals n stuff I think we should postpone it until a future date. That'll gimme time to install my spray. Hey and I think it would be best just to gather up at the parking of the speedway. Anybody agree???

    I need some 5.0 books and manuals, but which one?

    Agree! I have the 5.0 Technical Reference Manual and I've always used the Haynes Manuals. Chilton sucks Big Ones. I just recently got myself the T5 Rebuild Video from Hanlon Motorsports along with the Manual and let me tell you the Video Kicks some Big As$. It's the best.

    rear wheels arent spaced right!!!???

    thats weird. ive never noticed this before but i will definately will check mine. i guess one possibility is that it wasnt centered from the factory. maybe the welds on the axle housing arent centered. you ever check if one side is higher than the other? mine is and ive seen a few stangs...

    irwindale speedwayyyy

    Hey fellas I must apologize especially to slo65 for not being there at Mr. McDonalds at 5:30. Fu@#@ing traffic was ridiculous. It took me an insane 1 1/2 to get to irwindale. By the time I got there all I could do is order a meal because I was a bit hungry. I got a Big Mac combo and...
