    302 XXX block

    Its in the valley, sorry for the tiny pic. This is an Explorer block, its the XXX... my original '91 block is a YYY. I dont think there's any difference in the XXX; YYY blocks I wasnt concerned about it when I swapped them. It probably denotes a different casting plant, or casting...

    PICS of NOS GT

    The brake cooling ducts behind the front wheels makes no sense what so ever. The fender flares are the only good part of the car IMO.

    Adjusting Ford Racing e-brake cables (Sn95 disk)

    You think that you could use a Sn95 brake handle, but I hear that the SN95 has the "wrong" handle, its a carryover from the Fox. It kinda sucks that they didnt make a better system to adjust the brake on our cars. Hmm. My drums hold the car great with the e brake; I heard the disc brakes...

    axle replacement questions. 8.8 rear axle

    Just for clarification it's a 8mm bolt. Pulling the axles is no big job at all as you'll find out. I think I pulled 5 or 6 sets of axles at the junkyard, easy stuff... the worst part about the job is the gear lube. :ack:

    First new pics of my car on here in 6 years!!

    I was never a fan of the wheel, but I do say they look a lot better on a Cougar than on any Mustang.

    HELP Fuel pump won't prime and I have a date tonight!

    FWIW I got rear ended last year... anyway the inertia switch popped, but the button didnt spring up like its supposed to; so it looked like it was in the "on" position, but it was really "off". So I had to take the hatch panel off and I hit the switch with a blunt object; then the button sprung...

    5.0 Gremlin : (

    They do have a tester at the parts stores, but from experience it doesn't work. I personally ran the TFI tester about 20-30 times and got it nice and hot... it passed every time. I still suspected the module so I went to the junkyard and got one, after that I could finally roast the tires; I got...

    5.0 Gremlin : (

    It sounds like you have the same problem I had awhile ago, except I couldnt get past 3k and it wouldnt idle right when warm... it was the TFI modlule. FYI the Autozone Duralast brand 7/32" - 1/4" drive deepwell socket fits nicely in the TFI module hole. If you replace it be sure you get the...

    Stock or Saleen hood?

    Here's the closest thing to a SA-10 hood that you can probably get. Steeda Fiberglass Hoods - '87-'93 Ford Mustang ...Or a Cervinis 1.5 cowl wouldn't be too bad either.

    Where can I get OEM rubber exhaust hangers??

    I had problems with my tail knocking the frame when the car was at a standstill, so I got one of those tailpipe hanger kits from AZ. I only used the rubber strap that came in the box and I wrapped it around the part of the tail that was hitting the frame.... it hasn't knocked in years. I know...

    "The Last Boy Scout" fox body vert explosion.

    They must use two cars for one wreck scene in movies, anyone remember 2 Fast 2 Furious when the '03 Saleen got smashed up by the semi. During the smash up it still had its smoked '01-04 headlights... after the wreck it had the chrome '99-00 lights. Then again why wreck a $60K Saleen when you...

    Bosch Platinum plugs?

    +1 I was the exact same way! And Champions are for lawnmowers. I had a guy get some ACdelcos for his 5.0, I guess its not bad... just a little strange.

    Bosch Platinum plugs?

    Platinum plugs are good for longevity, not performance. The best bang for the buck are good ol' copper plugs. I used to work at a parts store and I remember a guy that got some for his 350 Silverado, he comes back a few hours later saying is truck runs like crap... anyway he got some regular...

    Stoopid power steering fluid question

    Maybe I'm not reading it right... Type F is whats recommended by Ford in the PS system. Regular PS fluid causes leaks, I learned that the hard way... IDK why the cap says "PS Fluid Only"...IIRC.

    Door hinge bushings

    I just want to add... If you care about your paint put some masking tape around the door and fender gaps; that way if you bang the door on the fender while its apart it wont chip or scratch the paint. Also I like to put a floor jack under the door to support the weight while its loose (don't...

    NOt a motorhead, but want to try

    Keep an eye out for a Explorer motor, that's the best budget performance thing going now. At minimum you'll have to change the cam, and valve springs; then use your Mustang accessories and ect to finish it off. There are a ton of write-ups on how to do it, I searched for the write-ups and built...

    VC oil baffle removed - consequences/options?

    Well I run without an oil baffle on my daily driver and I have no issues with oil being sucked through the valve cover. At first I was concerned about it... so I got one of those glass Spectre brand fuel filters that you find at Autozone and I put a cotton breather filter inside of it and...

    How to check transmission fluid?

    The owners manual calls for Mercon. Yes you can fill it through the shifter opening but it takes forever and a day. IIRC its just a 3/8" square plug that you can fit a ratchet on for the fill and drain bolts; and I don't think you have to lower the trans any to get to them.

    How to check transmission fluid?

    How are you guys filling the trans through the tiny hole in the shifter? I tried that and it took like 15 minutes to get about 4oz through there, so I went to Lowes and picked up about 5-6 feet of 1/2" ...I think, of clear tubing and filled it up from the engine bay with a funnel.
