    is your car ready for summer?

    All I need to do is paint the valve covers and I'd like to get some different front seats, but other than that its all good.

    2.95 Z-spec T-5 with 350HP??

    The 300ft lb t5 will work just fine, especially if you wont be beating on it much at the track. Also if you drive it on the street the G-force gear set is not the way to go. A much better option would be the Astro Performance gear set. It can handle just about anything you throw at it and it...

    Last update before the BEAST fires up!!!

    The reason I asked is because if you advance it, say 4 degrees it will bring your power band down which is good for a street car. My best was a 12.9 at 107.87. It has a lot more in it but I decided not to push it because I still had to drive it home. Also the track conditions were far from...

    Last update before the BEAST fires up!!!

    I think your "happy with" hp goals are pretty realistic. I don't agree with Scott that it should put down 300 with that intake because at this point its probably your biggest limiting factor after about 4500 rpms. I mean it could, but its not likely. Did you advance the cam any or are you...

    You want to take a fresh build to the track......... wait a few weeks until you have enough miles on it and all the bugs worked out.

    Grey5.0Beast!!!Is your car done yet man?

    The TW's are worlds better than that chinese crap I had on there before. I went to the track today and although I had a lot of trouble hookin up, I still managed a 12.9 at 107.8 mph. With some slicks and more aggressive shifting I'll be in the low 12s.

    Burnout vid. works this time.

    Have the Supra Threads come to an end yet?

    If you don't like supra's, stay out of the few supra threads. There are plenty of mustang threads to look at. I don't like supra's at all, but I'm not going to disrespect someone else's preference in vehicles.

    How long have you owned your 5.0

    I've had my car for 7 years. I'm not trying to sell it but if someone came by and made me a reasonable offer, or wanted to trade a nice 96+ cobra for it I'd do it in a heartbeat.

    HOOOOLLLYYY $#!7!!!

    They start missing badly, stalling, and shifting erratically. The miss is usually attributed to the coils going bad, oil leaking onto the plugs from the valve covers, and problems with the injectors. I haven't been able to figure out the stalling problem yet on one of the cars, but I'm leaning...

    HOOOOLLLYYY $#!7!!!

    I deal with them all the time at the shop I work at. A few good ones do not negate the large amount of recalls and problems the cars had in their production run. The problems are so notorious that people quite buying them even after ford had fixed a bunch of the bugs, so they are now no longer...

    HOOOOLLLYYY $#!7!!!

    I wouldn't hit a dog in the ass with a lincoln ls. For the most part they are junk, especially the early ones.
