    got my sct2 a few questions

    96 and 97 just require a plastic gear change in the tranmission sender unit. 20 bucks for a T5 I assume they're the same for a T45. 98 Switched over and requires a speedo calibrator or tune adjustment. I've never disconnected the battery in my 97 and the tune always worked. I felt a big power...

    Help, Xcal2 owner near Dearborn, Michigan

    I agree... it's a great device just needs the rest of the tech support to go with it. I think I got it working now but I have to fix other problems from my swap to find out if it loaded successfully since my car won't start. :(

    Help, Xcal2 owner near Dearborn, Michigan

    I've been using my buddies comp...mines too old... and I downloaded the Liveload program because it said I needed that for the LL3 files I received. I DL'd that at the thing that said drivers. Installed the liveload and unzipped the drivers files. It keeps giving me a cannot loop back message...

    Ok guys, I'm working on my swap from auto - T45 and the pedal assembly is giving me a headache. The auto assembly had 4 studs that all went through the firewall into the car.. the manual assembly has one stud that is supposed to go through the firewall the other way. How the heck do I remove...

    what components are most stressed when launching hard?

    The entire drivetrain is put under stress... clutch, tranny, driveshaft. The other thing I'd put into consideration if you plan on alot of hard lauches is strengthening your upper and lower torque boxes and possibly subframe connectors. You can buy kits that contain both parts. Jason

    Does the driveshaft from a 1990 5.0 fit a 2000 4.6?

    Yes, fits fine. I have a buddy with a 2000 that has one and I just put one in my 97. You just swap the yokes with your stock one.

    Cobra T45 crossmember...

    Hey guys... just found out there's a difference between the cobra and GT Tailhousings. Can someone tell me where I can get a Cobra crossmember? Also, do I need to drill holes or does it use holes already there? I'm swapping from an auto so I can't use a different tailshaft. Thanks, Jason

    Install Trans bolts from rear??

    I know what you mean... it's like when the sun goes down all the cars with neon lights and 3 foot wings come out. The key to 50's is to go early like 7 when all the muscle cars are out.

    Install Trans bolts from rear??

    I'm currently swapping to a manual on my 97 and was wondering if anyone has tried bolting the transmission to the bellhousing from the outside?? It looks to me that the majority of the bolt holes are unobstructed from the outside, so why wouldn't you be able to bolt them in from the rear? It...
