    275 tires on the front of my 98 Cobra?

    I put another 250+mi on my stangs new wheels last weekend & never noticed any wandering. IMO,I think the 275's make the front feel more stable actually.

    finally took some pics of my stang & it's new wheels!

    Thanks man! not gonna get any money back from them though. it's been almost a month now & besides I actually like them alot now.if they had the conversation on recording, I would probably hear the rep say SVE, I just didn't hear it. I might call & see what kind of deal they will give me on...

    gear install

    How good of a mechanic are you? are you good at math? do you have the proper tools?ect..... you can reuse the shims but you must measure the pinion depth & adjust accordingly. if you are not familiar with the setup/measuring process then I would suggest having a reputable shop do it. If you...

    Richmond Excel 3:55 Gear Install Questions

    Ok,I am not understanding the math above but I have done several stang rearends without any problems. now, what I do is measure the old pinion head & the new pinion head. for instance, if the old head is 3.325" & the new head is 3.315", I would reuse the old shims & add a .010 shim to it to make...

    How to read a Vacuum Gauge?

    your vac readings @ idle will depend on what cam you have in the motor. I have a Trick Flow stage1 cam in mine & I pull a very steady 15hg @ idle & I beleive the same 15hg while cruising( my needle is so still that it almost looks like it is stuck...until I touch the throttle. With a stock...

    have a question creating a MAF transfer with my Pro-M flow sheet

    thanks for the input. right now I am using a pre-loaded Pro-m maf transfer from the tweecer system & it is ok but I would like to have my exact ##'s loaded. I will calculate it out like you said & see what happens. Thanks again

    JunkYard T5?

    IMO ,1st gear of a 4cyl t-5 is worthless behind a 5.0 if you have 3.55 or lower gears in your rearend. as far as priceing goes, it really depends on the junkyard. I would think somewhere around $250-350 would be a decent price for a good junkyard 5.0 T-5.:shrug: the 4cyl t-5's have a...

    finally took some pics of my stang & it's new wheels!

    they are LMR's SVE 10th anniversary Mustang 94-04 Wheel & Tire Kit, Sve, Bronze, 5 Lug, 17X9 & 17X10.5 at LRS - Same Day Shipping! wheels, not FR500's. I wanted FR's but they didn't have them & it was going to be like 2-3weeks before they got them in so I decided to keep these...

    finally took some pics of my stang & it's new wheels!

    As some of you know from my previous post, I was planning on getting black FR500's for my stang. to make a very long story short, LMR didn't have the black FR's so they cancelled my order & asked me to call. I misunderstood the rep when I reordered & was under the impression that I ordered...

    Time for shocks/struts

    I also vote for the Tokico Blues. I've had them on two different stangs including my current one & they are great.

    have a question creating a MAF transfer with my Pro-M flow sheet

    I will try eectuning.org. I am using a Tweecer with the tweecer software which uses the MAf curve generator by Paul A. Booth. you put in the 10 point & then it creates a 30 point curve for you.
