    trans line fitting at the radiator leaks bad

    yip, theres supposed to be a flare fitting on the end of the line that seats in the radiator fitting when you tighten it down. ifyou have a plastic sleeve on yours, it sounds like someone rigged it before, or it had a compression fitting on it. you can replace the lines or go a cheaper way. the...

    what cam for the street??

    http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=TFS%2D51402000&autoview=sku im quite happy with mine. and on top of that it is the cheapest 5.0 performance roller cam out there. sounds nasty and pulls hard above 3000rpm, like a kick in the pants when it hits that rpm and screams from...

    5.0 next mods

    i would advise the next step to be a transmission swap. the t5 (im assuming thats what youre still running as you didnt say anything otherwise) is marginal on stock 302's. youre talking cam, intake, gears, and nitrous....it will blow up. its a question of when, not if. while pricey, the tremec...

    Headers Question

    it can be debated both ways if solid or individual flanges are better. old school guys used to often cut the flanges so they WOULD be individual to get them to seal better. if a solid flanged header has the slightest warp to it, it wont seal worth a **** anyway UNLESS you cut them to be...

    Mustang Heads

    any 302 windsor head will fit on any other 302 windsor/5.0, 289, or 260 block. they will fit 351 windsor only if you enlarge the head bolt holes

    89 GT Gas Tank removal

    dropping the tank is easy. one 8mm bolt that secures the filler neck brace to the tank, and two 9/16 bolts that hold the tank straps up. put a jack with a board on it under the tank, then remove the bolts. slowly lower the jack. it wont hurt to put some wd40 around the filler neck to tank rubber...

    What is the difference between FRPP B and C Springs?

    i was wondering that too when i was shopping for a set last week for my 86 gt vert. someone on here with a black 87-93 gt vert had a pic of their car with B springs and it had the look i wanted so i ordered a set of those. i noticed many items summit has listed that were FRPP parts and had...

    what cam for the street??

    since your signature didnt show up, im gonna assume you have a 1990 LX/GT. i went with the trick flow stage one cam. they are the cheapest roller cam out there (by far) and come pretty well recommended. you can re use your roller lifters. it has a mean sounding idle but runs relatively...

    87 88 thunderbird rear in a mustang

    yes but plan on your rear wheels sticking out 3/4" extra per side. if youve got clearance and access to a cheap rearend from a turbocoupe, go for it. its pretty much the same thing used in the 93 cobra

    Help with SVO rear end for 90 gt

    from what i understand, the SVO rear end was just a 5 lug 8.8 thunderbird turbocoupe rear end. probably the same thing you can buy from any lincoln mark VII LSC. both of those rear ends are fox body rear ends and will bolt into a mustang, but are .75" wider PER SIDE than a standard mustangs rear...

    Connecting Rod C8OE-A in a 1990 stang?

    c8 doesnt necessarily mean its a 1968 part, it means that that part was designed in 1968 and was used until a new part superceded it. if a part wasnt changed in production for 25 years, you can easily have a brand new 1993 part with a c8 date on it.

    am i going to break my driveline?

    if you already plan on replacing the axles and trans anyway, id go ahead and run it until you blow them up. you wouldnt be out anything but a tow bill, and it may last longer than you think. id rebuild or replace the posi, and use any tranny BUT a c4 or t5 unless you can get them by the...

    8.8 swap: how much can 28 spline axles take?

    eventually plan on swapping in a T5 or tremec trans again, just put it in stock and dont worry about it. if youre concerned, set aside a few hundred bucks just in case you want to order stronger axles later. but im betting that money will jsut sit there unused. ive already voiced my...
