    anyone want to give me t5?

    I have one, stock out of my 88 gt. Could use 2nd gear synchros, I drove it for 3 yrs with no problems. The only time it would grind a little was when it was bitter cold out and I shifted "quick" from 1st to 2nd. If you want it just pay shipping and its yours. Email me if you want more info...

    Twisted wedges/stage 2 cam

    Awesome, thanks everyone for the responses. Its been an idea in my head for a while now. I have the 331 in the garage pretty much finished up but I figured I would run this for a bit more time since there isn't anything really wrong with it. I had planned on doing the "clay job" to make sure...

    Twisted wedges/stage 2 cam

    Is it any good/ possible for a stock shortblock or will there be p/v clearance issues. A possible blower down the road also. I have a little $$ to spend on the car so I figured I could use the rest of this stock motor for something good. Thanks guys Nick

    Driving stang from PA to FL

    Check/change all fluids in the car, along with checking and setting the tire pressure in all four tires along with the spare just in case. Bring a jug of water and maybe a qt of oil just in case. Its real hot here in the north east and even hotter down there. Otherwise I'd say as long as the...

    had a run in with my knock earlier..... HELP

    There should be adequit (sp) clearance from the fan blade to the shroud area. Is your car an auto or manual? If it is an auto then have someone sit in the drivers seat with the brake to the floor, and e-brake up then brake torque the engine, (put the car in drive and blip the throttle up) stand...

    Help! Went through a "river" and now car won't start...

    I'd pull all the spark plugs and then crank it, you may see a buttload of water shoot out of the plus holes. Sounds like the engine is hyrolocked. If you did indeed suck water up and it entered the cylinders you may be in a heep of trouble my friend, especially if you tried to start it again...

    245/45 17's on a 17x9??

    I had to put a spare 245/45/17 on my 17x9 last summer. It looked like crap and hook for $hit. the tire was stretched out a bit to make it to the bead, not the safest looking set-up in my opinion. I have 255/40/17 on my 17x8 and 275/40/17 on my 17x9. I originally had 255's all around, the...

    Replaced door handle, and still doesnt open right

    Sounds like either the rods or the plastic retainer clips have worn. Over time the rods tend to bend a bit. If you take the door panel off and check it out you can see if they are out of wack or not. You can try straightening them but chances are they now have a weak spot. I'm sure...
