    Lest expensive set of monotube shocks/struts for 94GT?

    Thanks for the help. Yeah I'm thinkin' I want a 1.5" drop in the front, and 1.75" in the rear. Help get rid of some of the rake that the car has from front to rear, from the factory. Actually I'd like to take pretty much all the rake out of it, like the 94-98 saleens had. I think that looks awesome.

    Best set of aftermarket street heads for a 94?

    Back when I was big into these cars, the heads you wanted were the trick flow twisted wedge heads. These days it seems to have switched to a brand I haven't heard of until recently: AFR. Are the AFR street heads the ones I want to get? If so, is there any particular reason why? I assume they...

    Lest expensive set of monotube shocks/struts for 94GT?

    Thank you sir. But yeah, I had already studied up on the difference between monotube and twintube, and that is what made me want monotubes heh. Only thing is, they say monotubes are a bit stiffer and you might notice a ride quality change. Did you ever notice this?

    A better rear main seal?

    Mine seemed to be ok. I got a new PCV valve and screen from autozone. It was special order though. Ok so I will check the back of the valve covers, and the back of the intake. You know what I need to do, is get some of that diechem and add it to the oil. Then get a blacklight at night and find...

    A better rear main seal?

    I am wondering if there is a better rear main seal for my 94GT than just the ford house special, or the autozone special. The reason I'm wondering is because I perceive there to be some sort of factory defect going on when it comes to the rear main seal in these cars. I have had two 94 GT's...

    Will the check engine light come on if I do this?

    Nice! Was it a pain to get the engine code for the EGR valve deleted? Was it costly? I know if you take that off, the check engine light comes on.

    I am located near the dallas/fort worth metroplex. Where are you located?

    Lest expensive set of monotube shocks/struts for 94GT?

    Thank you sir. You would happen to know how much the car needs to be lowered to get into the normal operating range of the fox shocks, would you? I was thinking of lowering my car 1.75 inches, perhaps 2 inches at most. But probably not 2 inches because I had that before on an 94GT and it was too...

    Will the check engine light come on if I do this?

    So basically modern cats will not need to be warmed up? What about the O2 sensors? Don't they need to be warmed up before they will function properly?

    How much power do you think I could make...

    Well money's kinda tight but its not that dang tight. And I do intend to go get a new GT some day.:D Or cobra. But I'll always love and keep my sn95, so I just as well dress it up. I also intend to own a nice foxbody someday. I'm a bit of a mustang collector wannabe. So is this Xpipe...

    How much power do you think I could make...

    Some real good material in this thread. Yeah I have been trying to develop a plan, but it seems to be centering around making some affordable power for a few years. Then when I've been working (at a real job lol) for a while and can afford it, I'd like to build a newer better motor from the...

    How to test MAF sensor?

    Thanks again. Turns out the car is getting no voltage to either of those sensors. Guess I get to have fun tracing down a wire breakage. Whee!

    Lest expensive set of monotube shocks/struts for 94GT?

    You're a braver man than I, buying used shocks LOL. I can see the appeal, I just don't think I could bring myself to do it. What if they lied and sold them to you as though they only had 30K miles on them, yet they really had 130K? Guess that's just the risk you take with any used purchase but...

    Will the check engine light come on if I do this?

    I did it before and the engine light came on so I wanted some more opinions. No harm in that. As for the cats I think I have to run them to pass my local inspection. Unless you're talking about just running a bolt on exhaust bypass until its inspection time. Which sounds like a pretty good idea.

    How much power do you think I could make...

    Just had to put a brand new mass air meter on cause the old one died lol. Well, a refurb from orielly's but you get the idea. Thanks for all the advice though. So I'll skip the chip till I get heads and a cam and intake. But now I would like to ask... what do you mean by a "midpipe"? I think I...

    How to test MAF sensor?

    Ok thanks. So can this sensor (or trouble related to it) make the car run like hammered crap?

    Will the check engine light come on if I do this?

    I am wanting to do a smog pump delete. If I yank all that stuff outa there on my 94GT, will the check engine light come one? If so, what is the best way to make it go off? Do I have to take it somewhere and have them delete the code? I'm not talking about the EGR valve, just the smog pump...

    Lest expensive set of monotube shocks/struts for 94GT?

    Hi all. I have noticed that once you get into monotubes, the shocks/struts for a 94GT take a pretty good price jump. So I was hoping that someone here had already looked around and for the least expensive set, that is actually worth having. I mean I know you got bilstien, edelbrock, KYB, Koni...

    How much power do you think I could make...

    None LOL. But I'll have a little here and there so I guess I'll just do the whole craigslist bargain shopping thing. I'll probly be pretty short on cash until I graduate in a couple years and get a job. But, its no big deal and that's why I was asking about staying somewhere in the area of stock...

    How much power do you think I could make...

    Alright thanks for all the replies guys. But yeah I was talking about 320HP at the motor. Maybe I should shoot for 350 at the motor. But just curious... how much actual power is made by removing the air silencer (that's that little screen, right?) and advancing the timing a few degrees? Just...
