    Got the Merkur....here's pics

    When was the Merkur an economy car? It was twice the price of a 5.0 Mustang and has luxury features out the wazoo.

    Got the Merkur....here's pics

    The LSD version isn't really any stronger. Has the same size ring gear and the same axles, so there's no real difference from one to the other strength wise. Cobra 8.8 IRS is the way to go...if you are good at fabrication any how, lol.

    Got the Merkur....here's pics

    I blew a diff and a T9 in mine :D And I was only running low 15's @ 88mph getting low 2.2 60' times (which isn't bad I guess for an open diff). That's how crappy they are.

    Just wait until you get to go to the parts store asking for **** for these cars...The people there usually give you a "wtf" look or they think you said Mercury. The engine can take lots of abuse....just get rid of the stock tranny as quick as you can because it's a POS.

    Pics of my new MM/Team Z stuff!

    You'll really love that panhard bar if you like getting your Mustang sideways :D The amount of control you have while oversteering is night and day.

    Pulled my engine today and made a sweet vid of it ;)

    Thats me jumping on my own engine, LOL. The tranny was getting caught on the tunnel so I had to jump on it to tilt the engine back more :P

    My oil pump MAY have seized, but i'll find out tomorrow when I take the engine apart.

    Pulled my engine today and made a sweet vid of it ;)

    Well, me and a buddy pulled my engine today and we decided to make a timelapse video of it. We pulled in in under 5 min... J/K it was actually more like 2 hours start to finish, the video just makes us look good :rlaugh: http://calgaryvolvoclub.com/Engine%20Pull.wmv Oh...I'm the...

    Getting a Merkur XR4Ti....anyone ever have one? Experience?

    12.9's won't happen for cheap...I have one of these cars and while the engines are great, and the suspension is great if you want to build a autox car (with a little work in it anyway), they are NOT drag cars. The stock IRS and transmission is feeble at best, and will break with anything past...

    Motor mount height

    Offset rack bushings may solve your problem....

    Pics of the black Ford Racing valve covers?

    Heres my 408W....

    motor sits lower in a coupe?

    Maybe your state of intoxication changed from one car to the other? :D

    Anyone ever tried adding spacer where the swaybar mounts 2 frame?

    I lowered my swaybar down almost 1" with washers and shortened my swaybar endlinks.

    Do NOT buy and MSD distributor!!!

    You would think something bound it up anyway...The distributor turns easy as can be though. I have no idea what could have held it up bad enough to shear the pin off. Hopefully my MSD 6AL and coil don't start having issues soon :nonono: I'll have to take a look at the clearance for the...

    Pulled codes...need some help.

    Yeah...it certainly wasn't very high on my list of things to fail either. I removed the gear last night. I'm just gonna get a new pin to go in there and fix it myself rather than wait weeks and weeks for MSD to make the problem right...if they even would.

    Progress pics of my light titanium notch

    Well I honestly can't see any way to get 3" pipe through my suspension. If I put a fuel cell in the car it would be no problem, but I just can't see a way to get it through there as is. How do you like your MM rear suspension btw?

    Do NOT buy and MSD distributor!!!

    I bought it brand new. 400 km's on this distributor now and it's had 2 very serious issues. The only advantage it has over the ford piece as far as I can see is that it looks a little bit nicer. I'm happy with the other MSD parts in my car (6AL and TFI blaster coil), but this thing has just...

    Do NOT buy and MSD distributor!!!

    Well, some of you may have read about the problem I was having with my car. Basicly, it completely died on me while I was driving it. I was clueless as to what the problem was. I was getting spark, fuel, compression...it seemed everything was all good, but the car wouldn't fart, pop or...

    Pulled codes...need some help.

    Alright...well after further investigation tonight, I discovered the problem. All I have to say is I HATE this stupid MSD distributor that I bought. What a complete hunk of crap it is. Turns out the problem I was having is from the alignment pin on the distributor gear SHEARING off and...

    Pulled codes...need some help.

    Well if I have an injector pulse would that mean that my computer is not faulty then? Seeing as I have spark at the plugs, power at the injectors, injectors are pulsing and good compression in every cylinder (165psi +/- 3psi), I don't have any idea where to go with hunting down this problem...
