    Must Cure Terrible Gas Milage!!!

    I get about 160 in the city, or around 11mpg. If I'm nice to it, I can get 15mpg. On the highway, I get about 26 mpg. Mines stock, except for exhaust and the small stuff like timing. It's just that I'm always on the gas in the city. I like the smell of burning rubber. :p

    Guys with T-5 and 3:73's

    The only time I ever go into 5th is on the highway just cruising at 70+, cause mine lugs really bad too. If I'm in town, I don't think I've ever gone above 3rd. I can stay in 3 until about 40-45 (all this according to my speedo, which I'm assuming is close enough to correct to use). I use 4th...

    Car died while driving, so I left it!!

    That sucks, but kinda off topic, how did the car run after putting the balancer on? I mean before it died.

    HAHAHA, thats gotta suck, I had my mufflers off for a week while I waited to get new ones, oh, believe me, it was fun to hit 4000 in second gear, going about 45, loud as hell, none of the cops cared, they left me alone.

    What is the compression ratio for a stock 5.0?

    I was gonna order it from California Mustang, but like I said, it costs like $119 IIRC, the website is down right now. I might try Ebay.

    '05 Mustang GT HP#'s from MotorTrend

    VERY true, mmmmmm...Boss 302. :drool: and KR500 :hail2: Mustangs have always (except for the late 70's, but hey, there was a oil crisis) had a great performance history, "Race on Sunday, sell on Monday," but they also appeal to a sporty crowd with the V6's (ha, trying to find a word to...

    What is the compression ratio for a stock 5.0?

    Heck ya, I've got Chiltons, I'm about to get the Haynes, I have the Ford Fuel Injection & Electronic Engine Control, it's awesome, cause I had no clue how to work on electronically controlled engines, I was taught carbed engines. When I can scrape enough money, I'm gonna get the Official Ford...

    What is the compression ratio for a stock 5.0?

    Yup, thats what my Tech Reference & Perfomance Handbook says. I love this book, I've only had it for a week, but I've used it about 15 times, just for small things and misc. info

    Supposedly, a place in Cincinnati or somewhere released the issue early, but thats what I read here. I dunno if it's true or not. Maybe somebody knows the true story. :shrug:

    For real? I don't mean to falsify your statement, but what proof do you have? I don't think they would over rate it, there isn't a purpose. :shrug:

    GT/Hatch weight

    GT with a manual tranny weighs in at 3191 without fuel or oil. So maybe 3400 or so?

    What is the compression ratio for a stock 5.0?

    I think it is 9.1:1, but I can't find my Official Mustang Manual to check. edit: Just looked it up, it's 9.0:1

    2005+ Mustang GT Concept Colors

    I would really doubt it, that would be a pretty bad move by Ford. I'm sure you'll have red, white, green, blue, yellow (maybe), and whatever else is available today.

    Alright, after doing some digging: Mach 1: 3465 w/5 spd, 3475 w/auto Standard Coupe: 3112 w/5 spd GT Coupe: 3273 w/5 spd SVT Cobra: 3665 I didn't look at Convertibles, cause those weigh more anyways. So it's not that bad, comparible to the Mach 1.

    I thought the current models weight was around 3460 or so? I think the Mach is 3465 IIRC

    Which is the best electric radiator fan?

    Does anybody know how many continuous amp the 3.8L fan draws? I have an 95 amp alternator that is brand new, I don't run my a/c except on the highway, and I only have a cd player. Do you think it would be alright?
