    Need New Windshield with Running Horse?

    Well I don't want them to go completely nuts if the local Ford Dealer charges a thousand dollars for a windshield and a generic one may be $200. This happend around 4:30 pm, and it was too late to call the Ford Dealer for prices. Ike

    Need New Windshield with Running Horse?

    Does anyone know where genuine Carlite windshields with the running horse might be availble (Ford Dealer?) Also what is a fair price to pay installed? I had to run an errand for work earlier today and had a truck throw a rock through my windshield, thankfully my employer is paying to get it...

    Subframe Connector Weight

    It sounds in the right ballpark to me, my steeda tubular sub frames were probably a little lighter (going from feel and memory), but not much. Ike

    Spec Stage 2 vs. King Cobra clutch

    You should be able to find the King Cobra for a lot less than that (at least before shipping), I paid $100 (open box unused) for mine at the Fun Ford Weekend swapmeet at Ennis, there were a number of vendors that were selling them from $140-160. Ike

    steeda tri-ax or pro 5.0 shifter....help....

    My guess if you find that most people will vote for the one they own. Also you will find that most people own the Tri-Ax, as it usualy sells for less than the Pro 5.0 and is more widely available. I like my Pro 5.0 although the standard handle is too short in my oppinion, the Pro 5.0 with the...

    Please help me decide to buy this or not

    I would also be worried about any internal engine damage, its hard to tell without pulling the heads. Given the combination of NOS and miles, I would not buy it unless I had the money to replace the engine. Assuming the graphics have been on there since the car was new, if you remove them you...

    3/8 or 1/2 Extension Bar/Swivel for X-Pipe Install?

    several of the short 3/8 ones stacked together worked best for me (like the ones that always come in cheap socket sets), they gave just enough flex without having a universal swivel flopping around. Ike

    Any drawbacks?

    Yeah, the cup holders, the back one is way too big, and when you put anyting in the front one it limits shifting to 1st, 3rd, and 5th (of course they fixed that on the 01- newer models). The factory seats suck on long trips, traction on wet pavement can be scarry (better now that I have...

    Problem???

    The throwout bearing is part of the clutch assembly, it sits in the middle of the clutch assembly where it makes contact with the flywheel. To get to it, you first have to remove your mid-pipe X-pipe in your case, disconnect the driveshaft, then remove the transmission. While you are there...

    How long should the stock clutch last?

    Mine started acting up at around 70,000 miles (it would start slightly slipping on long road trips), so I had it changed. The old clutch looked to have a reasonable amount of life left to it, but the flywheel was burned fairly bad. Ike

    which car should i get 01gt vs 99 svt

    If you can afford the insurance get the Cobra (note when I bought my GT, I checked insurance and it was about $1,000 per year higher for a Cobra), I am 34 with a clean driving record and pay just under $2,000 per year for full coverage on my GT. Also make sure all recall work has been done on...
