    H pipe install question

    I did my first Mustang upgrade yesterday. I bought a summit racing H pipe and the fit and finish were good(except the bolts were too small) but can someone tell me how to get the ford flanges to align properly? Last week, I tried to make my own h pipe(too many bends and no pipe bender) and...

    Lost some weight!

    I would guess I pulled about 20-25 LBS. out of the rear of the car yesterday. Cut out most of the sound insulation in the rear area around the hatch, cut the insulation off of the carpet, and scraped the tar stuff out all the way up to the seats. Those two sound mats between the carpet and the...

    Tapping?!

    Like said before, start with the gaskets, then move on to the valvetrain. Most likely, it will be the cheapest part that fails first.

    Wheel hop question

    Ya, I still have them. They are A LOT smaller right? They look like the originals. Any stronger replacments? I think im going to go with one of the upper and lower set ups from ebay (blue oval industries). 140 to the door seams like a good deal. Between that and the Sub frams I am...

I bought a 82 firebird, and always wished I got...

    Whistling sound???

    Thank you....Honestly, I haven't had the time to check over much on the car. I just made sure it ran, and drove well before I bought it, and made sure it didn't have any stress cracks around the control arms. It does have the bbk cold air kit, and he did mention something about grinding so I...
