    Changing brake pads... where to grease?

    They have alot of oddball tools that you may only use 1 time. When you can't find it anywhere else, they usually have it.

    Changing brake pads... where to grease?

    I just bought an entire kit with little adapter plates to fit different sized applications. Got it from Harbor Freight for like $20. I have definately gotten my money's worth using it too.

    opening day of dragstrip! times sucked

    If all you are wanting is to get your best possible et, don't worry about reaction time at all. YOu can sit on the starting line with the light green for 10 minutes and it won't change your et one bit. Basically what I'm trying to say is don't worry about catching a good light, just relax and...

    Changing brake pads... where to grease?

    I had a buddy get stuck in a similar situation and he ended up using some needlenose pliers to spin the pistons back in.

    Changing brake pads... where to grease?

    I usually put it on the back of the pads where the piston hits on the inside and where the caliper hits on the outside. Make sure you do not get any on the pad surface. Also, you should grease the caliper slide pins to keep them from seizing up on you. Here is a picture of the bracket with...

    If I had a new 5.0, I would have this exhaust

    :shrug: None of them sounded as good as the 5.0 in the original post, IMO.

    If I had a new 5.0, I would have this exhaust

    I don't think the 3v cars sound that good either personally. I think the problem with the new 5.0's and the 3v cars is the muffler placement. Put it in the same location as the older generation cars and it would probably sound alot better.

    If I had a new 5.0, I would have this exhaust

    Now just imagine what this thing would sound like with this H/C/I package... 2011 Mustang GT makes 507rwhp with H/C/I N/A! - SVTPerformance :jaw:

    Clutch Cable Identification

    If there is no firewall adjuster than an OEM cable should fit fine. You can look under the driverside dash to see if there is an aftermarket quadrant, stock should be a whitish colored plastic piece. IMO, the OEM cables are the best ones to use.

    1200hp turbo build

    Sounds like a nice bullitproof build! Which 4v heads are you going to run? edit: I was confused by your sig. You are building a turbo 2v w/ported 96 NPI heads correct?

    How long are Mustang exhaust tips?

    Yea, the tips clean up pretty easily. The rolled edges tend to blacken up pretty quick, at least on my car they do. So you have to polish them frequently I agree the 4" tips look too big. 3 1/2's fit the curve of the bumper cutouts perfect. Here is a pic, but they are not cleaned up...

    How long are Mustang exhaust tips?

    I have those tips in Chrome. They don't slip over the stock tips. Mine are attatched with band clamps. Fit is good and they look great, IMO.

    Is it worth it?

    That will all depend on you. Personally, I prefer our bodystyle over the newer models. However, hp come with a big pricetag on our cars. If your just wanting something to have fun with and not worry about making payments on, stick with what you already have.

    Stalled at 120MPH

    I believe that depending on the stock wheels/tire size, some cars had a factory speed limiter set at 120mph. I think the cars that came with 16" wheels had it, IIRC.

    Slicks or DR's

    I would not get slicks if you do not have 31 spline axles/diff. You will almost certainly break something in the rearend. With a sticky enough drag radial, you can still break an axle if you launch hard enough. IMO, until you get the rearend built up, stick with some Nitto drag radials. If...

    Which clutch?

    I am using a Centerforce dual friction clutch also. Pedal pressure is basically like stock. It is holding up to my nitrous launches and power shifts very nicely. On the other hand, I had a Valeo stock replacement clutch in there before the Centerforce and it worked great for 2+ years with...

    seafoam help

    The only reason you put it in the oil is to break up and remove sludge that may have built up. You will not see smoke from this at all. As for putting it in your gas tank, doing that is just like adding some type of injector cleaner. If you want to see smoke, you will have to put it into your...
