    Which bolt-on next?

    +1 for the cams. Might as well start with the stage 2's. Why not install them yourself? There's a wealth of information on how to do that all over just about every Mustang enthusiast forum (including this one.) I also like the electric water pump idea, though I'm not sure I'd personally...

    Crank Pulley

    The Steeda kit comes with 2 bolts. One is the bolt you use to draw the crank pulley back on, then you remove that, and install the other bolt they supply, which is the correct sized bolt, but isn't quite long enough to draw the pulley on. That's why there are 2 bolts. He proably used the...

    Gear Break in...umm this is new..??

    I'm thinking since there's so many people who have basically proved that a break-in period isn't required, my guess would be that they just say that so if you come back with busted gears right away, they have something to blame the breakage on, instead of having to admit that perhaps they did...

    Will an electric fan an underdrive pullies kill my stock alt?

    :stupid: :stupid: The week I had that Proform POS on my '88 was plenty of time for me to never buy a thing from that company again. The only way you could safely run that fan on stock alt would be if you used the DCC controller.. and if you did that, it'd be a waste of money to buy the...

    scuffs on plastic

    That's obviously the bezel around the shifter. I didn't even click the pic.

    supercharger help

    I see.. so you want a ghetto way to make an intake for it while you drive it home. Hope that's what you meant. Just head to autozone and buy one of those pos import car filters, and like a 2 inch piece of pipe that comes with it, slap the MAF on, and clamp it to the throttle body. Edit...

    strange Idle

    From the way I'm interpreting your post, it doesn't sound like you're idling at 2800 rpm, it sounds like your idle hangs until you get to a dead stop. Now I'm going to say clean your IAC on that one. I also want to mention, my '04 has done the same thing since the day I drove it off the...

    Short throw shifter

    One good sideways smack while in neutral should jar it loose. I just hit mine REAL hard with my fist and it broke loose.

    SES Light On

    There's really nothing for him to raise hell about. They installed some aftermarket parts that most reputable exhaust shops wouldn't touch. Furthermore, I'm sure they told him "there's no warranty or anything on this stuff." If he didn't provide them with directions, or clearly tell them...

    Radiator Fan Question:

    I believe there's also a sensor somewhere indicating whether or not the A/C compressor needs to come on to lower the temperature. I can't remember where I read that.

    Which gasket maker for Steeda underdrive pulley install?

    Do yourself a favor, and spend a little extra to get a bigger compressor. I've used everything smaller than the one I have now, and they all run far too often at the most inopportune times IMHO. I have a 60 gallon 220volt version from Home Depot. Cost just over $400 on sale. I can paint an...

    project "single dad rebuild"

    What's in need of repair on the car? Maybe that would help us understand your situation a little better... I would think 160 miles round trip once a week shouldn't be a big deal.

    AHAHAHA ITS ALIVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (TT stang)

    I don't think a steel braided hose will make a diff.. they are still rubber on the inside. He needs a hard line probably unless he can run the hose away from that hot side pipe somehow.

    00 GT vs CRX

    Just race him and find out.. why waste time asking for opinions based on no facts from people over the internet? You'll lose to the crx, bigtime. No advice offered as to the RX-7 because you've provided us no information that's useful. "I think it's older, and not turbo" means nothing to...

    MRT Catted H-pipe / Magnaflow Install ?

    One way to check for leaks is light up a cigar, and climb under the car... blow some of the smoke up where you suspect the leak, and if the smoke visibly blows in one direction, etc. Of course this doesn't work too well if it's windy outside. You can also Seafoam through a vac line, then...

    00 GT vs CRX

    You're toast.. eliminate any contact with him now, so you don't have to ever find out what it feels like to be annhialated by one of those ugly things.
