    why do after market gears whine?

    Somebody didnt check their backlash :D. Normally gear whine is associated with improper install, although not all the time. As stated above, some gears make more noise than others. Ive heard shops say that Richmond is the loudest, Motive, then FRPP. Ive heard of some shops refusing to...

    Warlock???

    I had them on my 5.0 and they sounded :drool: Really deep, aggressive tone. Just the 5.0 with Warlocks sounded louder than my '03 with full exhaust. Only bad thing is they rusted out with 3 holes within 2 years. They have ZERO coating on them. I will probably by another set when I get my...

    can anyone host a vid???

    My best has been a 269.7 and 305.1. I got a 265.7 and a 303.1 then a 266.0 and a 303.6 on the next pull. I was hoping to pass 270... guess I might have to get cams :D.

    Flowmaster single chambers..

    Ive never heard them on a 5.0, but I know a guy with them on his 4.6. Honestly I think it sounds like pure butt. I didnt think they were to much louder thought :shrug: If your looking for something with a very aggressive tone similar to Flows I'd recommend Warlocks :nice: I had a set on my...

    BBK intake manifold?

    Im debating this same thing. I think the new BBK piece looks very nice, not to mention the new fuel rails!!!. The only drawback is the price when you can go on ebay and probably get a Cobra/Performer II Intake for ~350-400. Granted the Cobra isnt the best intake on the market, but its one of...

    Crossroads..

    If you go with gears, you will need to get the programmer, a speedcal, or a chip to correct your speedo. As said above I would get both. I wouldnt worry to much about mpg with 3.73's. I have them on my 5 speed and get anywhere from 280-320 miles per tank. They will also be very tolerable for...

    Code Question

    I already posted this in the 5.0 forums but only got a partial answer. My 5.0 is giving me a few codes and one of them is a bad Exhaust Gas Oxygen sensor. Is this the same thing as a bad O2 sensor? Im pretty sure it is, but I just want to make sure. Thanks guys!

    Code Problems...

    Yeah Im leaning towards the bum solenoid for the EGR code. When we first pulled the codes he said that if the new egr didnt fix it, it would probably be a bad solenoid :shrug: Does anyone know which solenoids tie in directly with the egr? Pics would be a big help :nice:. Ill also hunt...

    Code Problems...

    A few weeks ago I was getting a check engine light that would come on after I drove the car a few times a day. I took it to the shop and they said the only code they got was a bad egr code. I went to auto zone and got a new egr and put it on that afternoon. Check engine light was gone for...

    Back from dyno...#'s decent??

    The hp #'s look nice for an NA car. I was expecting to see around 270 or so, but 260's nothing to sneeze at with as light as these fox bodies are. Your torque does seem oddly low to me as well :shrug: I was figuring you would be at least 290lb/ft+. Still pretty nice #"s though. I know a...

    03/04 Ring and pinion gear ?

    My '03 had 3.27's stock. I did upgraded to 3.73's though. Be careful, he may just be trying to rip ya unless he had installed 3.73's at a later date.

    oil leak help

    Ok, I cleaned the underneath and engine compartment as well as I could this am. It looks amazing better, but I am more confused now that I ever was about this leak. After everything was cleaned off and I whipped some areas dry that I thought would be suspect, I started it up. I let it run for...

    oil leak help

    Yeah I had a bad pressure build up in the car my senior year at college that was causing some oil to blow out. A buddy of mine said there is a screen behind and kinda wedged under the upper intake. I hunted for it and found it, pulled out the screen and it was almost a solid chunk. I replaced...
