    Can't get the rubber coupling on 75mm throttle body

    Spray some dish washing liquid on it. Don't use oil as it generally is not good for rubber.

    NOISEY 4.10s in my 03 GT

    That's interesting. I've had drive shaft humming before but only when the universal joints were on their way out. What makes the light weight drive shaft hum?

    bassani bx or magnaflow catback?

    Can't say for an O/R pipe, but to *my ears* Bassani is deeper and more hollow sounding than the regular Magnaflow which I have. Bassani is kind of like a combination of Flows and Magnaflow IMHO. You really should hear one in person before buying though.

    NOISEY 4.10s in my 03 GT

    From what I understand, gear noise peaks at 30-40mph as well as multiples of those speeds, IOW 60-80 etc depending upon the particular noise and speed. So if you get a noise at say 43mph, chances are you will get it at 86mph as well. I'm not sure about manuals but I know for a fact that the...

    which mid pipe

    I say a catted H pipe because an X pipe is only going to accentuate the already raspy sound (IMHO) of the packs.....

    rear end fluid question?

    I did the same with the Mobil.... If you read the bottle it says something like "for severe applications additional additive might be needed". I figured the Mustang fit the bill :lol: It can't hurt anything....

    Mach 1 Front/rear sways and sfcs

    I just had Maximum Motorsports Full Length Sub-frames installed on my 2003 vert which has the same factory SFC as the Mach and I can tell you for a fact, do not waste your money on the Mach SFC. They are 1/2 length, if that, and they are BOLT on instead of weld on. The difference is huge...

    "Average" or "Expected" lifespan from Bilsteins?

    What kind of warranty do the Bilsteins have? They are a very reputable company so I would contact them and see what they can do for you. That stuff certainly cost enough!

    Magnaflow vs 40 delta flowmasters

    Personally I like the Magnaflow sound and I disagree that they sound like a V6 on steroids or a truck. I get lot's of compliments on how my car sounds. Lot's of people like loud obnoxious exhaust systems, I am not one of them. I got that out of my system with a 72 Duster, 77 Transam and 77...

    Bassani or SLP

    Any sound clips, either your own or online some place of the catted X and Magnaflow standard catback system? I want to hear if it sounds like my friend's which to me sounds too high pitched compared to mine with the stock H pipe and same Magnaflow catback system. TIA

    Magnaflow vs 40 delta flowmasters

    How long have you had the Magnaflows? They get louder after a couple of weeks of use FWIW. I have them in my 03 Vert and yes they DO DRONE, espeically at 1900-2100RPM under load (going up a hill etc) and with an automatic is gets very annoying after a while. I see on the boards all the...

    Here is some interesting info on Mustang suspension basics: http://www.miracerros.com/mustang/t_suspension.htm BTW this discussion is one reason why I am leery of lowering my 2003 GT Vert. The biggest problem these days is finding a person who actually KNOWS how to do a proper alignment on...

    Low RPM miss? No codes showing...

    Electrical cleaner or MAF cleaner... NEVER carb cleaner and as for Seafoam, well, I wouldn't go near that stuff unless you have a very high mileage car that was abused and have tried everything else. Carb cleaner eats plastic.... Electrical cleaner does not... Make sure the electrical...

    Just bought a 99 GT and have a few ?'s

    Congrats, you got a great deal. The motor lasts forever with regular oil changes. The intake manifold crossover is a must do if it has not been done already. Don't waste money on an after market manifold, just get the stock unit. Ford DID pay for a recall so you might want to contact...

    04 Auto help...

    My GM 92 Caprice has almost a half a million miles on it with original tranny and fluid. Runs great.... There are a lot of opinions on this one and the bottom line is that it is always better to change the fluid/filter every 30k or so however if you have gone to say 80k or so without ever...
