    What do i need to know about S197's

    If you can see your way clear, get a later model '08 or so to avoid the biggest Ford screw up ever - the 2 piece sparkplug horror. :)

    3.90 Gears

    Most people shy away from 3.90 gears for the simple reason FRPP doesn't offer that ratio and most feel they want to stay with FRPP gears. They have the reputation of being the best , quietest gears. The FRPP 4.10 gears seem to be the most popular followed by 3.73.

    spark plug change

    :bs: Sorry, but I have to throw the B.S. flag on this one. I started to change my OE plugs at 38K miles, not many of which were "quick trips" and the second one snapped (following the TSB to the letter). Trucked car to dealer where they broke off 5 more. I would still use the nickel anti...

    Has anybody installed stainless steel gauge faces? I have white face gauge faces which are OK, but I wonder if the SS look would be better. :shrug: 2005-2009 Ford Mustang GT Stainless Steel Gauge Face __________________

    time to replace the stock shocks

    Ordered a pair of GT500 upper strut mounts from GEF Racing. $53.37, no tax, no shipping. Should go nice with the Koni STR.T struts & shocks next spring. :D

    time to replace the stock shocks

    OK, now to show my ignorance. I was asking about strut mounts. You said something about "insulators". Are we talking about the same thing? :shrug:

    time to replace the stock shocks

    Are you guys saying when I go to replace my OE struts I also need to replace the upper mounts? Do I replace them with Ford parts? Would it be best to go with GT500 or Steeda HD mounts? I intend to go with Koni STR.T struts. Not lowering car. :shrug:

    What is the trick with the cabin air filter

    That would be my guess too. Just make sure they're all in and just push toward windshield. :nice:

    Hell, I'm 63 and am on my 5th Mustang (2006 GT 'vert 5-speed). Growing old is unavoidable, growing up is optional. :nice:

    MGW shifter

    If I remember, the boot and aluminum shifter bezel (comes as a unit) are from a Bullitt mustang. I think I ordered it from Fordpartsonline.com. :nice:

    time to replace the stock shocks

    My OE shocks/struts now have 60K miles on them. I am going to put the new KONI STR.T dampers on next summer.

    MGW shifter

    Not at all. Quieter than the stock shifter.
