    gas milage with O/R H-pipe

    I got a Mac off road H-pipe (installed) from my son for my B-day. My gas milage has suddenly improved close to 20% !!! I think the cats were not functioning too well before, the 'butt meter' tells me the car is running a lot better - but best of all - NO MORE PINGING! Anyone else get...

    AODE: 2nd gear shift hangs after H/I/Blower, etc.

    Get a lentech valve body. It will change your shift points. Apart from that, a custom chip (or a Tweeker) would really help you out.

    Hernia

    I have had surgery for hernias twice. First time I had pneumonia, and while sneezing, my belly button suddenly became a very large "outie". Got that fixed. A year later, while sneezing, I split the abdominal muscles just above the belly button - it looked like a little pup tent. That was was...

    Hitting the dyno in 2 weeks !

    Yup, a good cruise. Might even do a BBQ at my house this summer. With just me and the wife at home, I think even my small house is a little big. Shelby = 1 dead Dan I think I'd probably end up killing myself with anything more than 400hp. For an "almost" old guy, I like to press the...

    Hitting the dyno in 2 weeks !

    Kumho = junk The only reason I bought mine was because they are THE cheapest tire in the 245/50/16 size, (about $110 CDN) and I did want all season for the rain. Really crap tires. Next time I'll spend a little more and get something a little better.

    05 GT Convertible Safety Ratings?

    As far as rollover is concerned - government tests (I think NHSA?) have shown that the Mustang is one of the LEAST likely vehicles to rollover. Here you go: http://www.automotive.com/2005/12/ford/mustang/safety/ This is for the coupe. I would think the vert would be less likely to tip...

    Last weekend's little Mustang cruise (pics)

    I prefer the original rims. The only ones I'd ever put on my Stang apart from those are Bulletts - either black or charcoal - either go pretty good with the Opal Frost colour. :nice:

    Auto Tranny Regrets?

    Carbs on it were notorious - body was a blantant copy of the jag at the time. I found the engines frightfully underpowered and breakdown repairs and part costs were brutal. Sometimes it would take up to 6 months to get a part! Yup, it was a milestone - more time spent in the garage than Brit...

    Auto Tranny Regrets?

    If you really want to "get on it", try a high stall torque converter, valve body, slap shifter and a chip tune (You can change all your shift points with electronic automatics). Roast 5 speeds all day, and never miss a shift! although I do not have an '05, (I have a 95), I have seen some...

    Auto Tranny Regrets?

    Porsche 911 Targa, Jaguar XKE 2+2, RX-8, Datsun 240Z, MGB GT all have back seats. The Pontiac Solstice and the Saturn Sky both have 2 seats. So does the old 3 wheeled Messershmidt from the '50s. Shelby Cobra. 2 seats - Most people call it the "original " muscle car. Which of these...

    Last weekend's little Mustang cruise (pics)

    Isn't it funny we never see a cop when we cruise - Good thing - it was a rush on the highway! We'll have to do it a little more often this year. I've tried before to talk the NCMA gang into doing a cruise on our side, but they say they have a problem with the attitude of the Quebec police. :D
