    Front end squeak Steering rack, or tie rod bushings?

    To cure mine 8 years ago I got a can of spray white lithium, cut the spray tube like a hypo needle, poked a hole in all of the rubber boots covering the tie rod ends and ball joints then just filled the boots with grease. Works fine lasts a very long time. Dwayne

    burning clutch smell and noise from clutch help

    Mobil 1

    Stick with what you have been using and extend your drain interval. I change mine once a year (12000 miles) with a filter change and top off @6 months. I have been doing this for 10 yrs and the engine is spotless, no issues at all. Dwayne

    ticking noise

    Yes detonation can happen on a stock engine, 3rd gear full throttle = lots of engine load which increases your chance of detonation. The CAI is worthless imo, the stock setup was a cai from the factory. Dwayne

    Ford racing supercharger

    The unit is a m112 not a m90. Have it ported by Magnum Powers this reduces the heat factor by making it more efficent. Run a 10lb pulley, get it tuned. Install a K&N FIPK it hates restrictions in front of the blower and the K&N is the freest flowing out there. You should see awesome torque...

    Intercepter swap

    X Police motor? I honestly don't think there is a difference. Install a pair of PI cams and the PI intake manifold. There is plenty of info on this in the search function. This will bring you up to around 245hp very close to the 99 GT numbers without having to do a full PI head swap. Dwayne

    Car seems to buck with defrost on

    Sounds like the AC compressor cycling to me. With the eng on and set up the same open your hood and watch the AC clutch, it the stumble happens when the clutch engages you have found the cause. This is normal operation. Dwayne

    OTC valve spring compressor

    You don't need to compress the valves to check or remove the lash adjustors. Just unbolt the cam caps a little at a time remove the cam and you can pull all of the lash adjustors reinstall new and reinstall the cam the reverse order of removal. Dwayne
