    Aluminum Driveshaft, worth it?

    I'm just reporting what it gained. This was about 5 years ago so I don't have the graph, but I dyno'ed the car in the morning and then installed the drive shaft and re-dyno'ed it..gained 0hp and 7lbs of torque. The only reason I remember this is the was the only time I gained 0hp from a mod...

    BBK or MAC LT Headers w/Midpipe ??? 04 GT

    BBK or MAC cermic coated are both a good choice. MAC's are a bit easier to install since you don't have to remove the oil dip stick tube.

    02 Sensors, Question - Front/Rear SAME??

    They have different part #'s for the front and the rear 02 sensors. The 96-98 have a different front 02 sensor part # than the front 02 sensors on the 99-04 GT's. You can go to www.motorcraft.com and check.

    MPH Mongoose Vortech Kit vs. RPMoutlet's Procharger Kit.

    One other thing to consider about the P1-SC and the leaking seal issue. I've seen a few cars with blown engines that were caused by the seals leaking oil into the discharge side and coating the mass air meter with oil.

    Which Intake????

    Ya Eric I have the bullitt intake on my car. The RR and P-51 will be a little cheeper, but I think you need the cowel hood for the P-51. Ya our cars are pretty close. Dave uses my combo's on most customers cars since it has always provied good results and it's very streetable. The only...

    Anyone owning aftermarket gears....get in here!

    When the 99+ mustang's lose there speedo, it cause the idle problems and the ---- across the odometer. I forgot to plug me speedo in one time after changing the clutch. Did the same things. You can remove the speedcal and it will fix the problem till you can get a tune to recalibrate the...

    Which Intake????

    We did a compairson of a RR intake vs a bullitt intake on a customer car with a VT engine and a vortech JT runing about 20lbs of boost. The RR intake made more peak power (above 6500), but below that the bullitt intake made more power and it really killed the RR intake at lower RPM's. IMO...

    Tubular K members and A arms

    QA1 and granatelli are both cheep k-members. Both have fit issues with some headers. On a drag car that only see's the track they are an ok choice, but on the street they are a very weak K-member. I would go with either an AJE , PA, or Maximum for a good street K-member!! Personally I...

    Who has the Baddest 2V 4.6 out there?

    No the stock short block is still in and still holding up fine. She's actually going to be redyno'ed soon to see if we can brake 550rwhp now that the fuel pumps were upgraded. The forged engine will go in one of these days, but I'm in no hurry. I've been too busy working on my 91 Mustang...

    How long to pull a 4.6 w/longtubes?

    What long tubes do you have?? You can pull the engine and trany with the LT's on. Now depending on what LT's you have you can install both, or just the passanger side header. Worse come's to worse, when removing the engine and it hits some place on the header, you just unbolt the header/s...

    Cold Weather = Wont Start?

    You might want to check the front 02 sensors. When mine went bad it didn't want to start on real cold days. We datalogged the car and found out the front 02's were taking to long to heat up and causing the issues. Replaced them and the car started fine again.

    1 Legger Burnouts!!!!!!!

    With all your mods your dealer might not cover it. Personally I'd take it to a local speed shop and have them rebuild it. A Ford rebuild kit is about $50 for the kit. Then have it rebuilt with extra clutches. You should be back in business.

    Steeda Ultra-Light/ UL 2 Weights... Are they heavy?

    I have real chrome 18" 00 Cobra R's. With tires I think they weighed about 45-50lbs each. A customer our ours had the 18" chrome Steeda ultra lights. His steeda felt like they were almost half the weight of mine. The real 00 Cobra wheels are very heavy wheel, and one of the reason I'm...

    anyone have bbk valve covers?

    I've installed many of both (BBK and team bread). The BBK's are a pain in the rear to install with the suplied allen cap bolts. The BBK's use a flat gasket that is prone to blowing out and leaking. You have to glue the gasket to the valve cover and carefully try to install it without...
