    Torque Convertor question

    I'm not a fan of B&M's converters but I don't think a 2000 stall is that bad. Alot of it depends on what you want to do with the car. On a mostly stock car being built for the streets a 2000 to 2400 stall should be fine. If you plan on more extreme mods or a building the car mostly for the drag...

    Transgo shift kits

    Torque converter depends on how modded your car or how far you want to go. If its mostly stock I'd only go a few hundred over the stock converter about 2000 to 2400 stall if the car's pretty worked up or is going to be you might want to consider a 2800 to 3000 stall. It all depends on what your...

    Transgo shift kits

    Very noticable difference over stock...crisper & harder. I'd recommend a more agressive torque converter with it to really make it worth it. I had a shop install mine with the torque converter, didn't want to deal the mess. You'll like it.

    "C" springs or "B" springs?

    Just had B springs put on mine this past weekend. Looks great. Looks like it dropped just over an inch. I'll post some pics later. Can't go wrong with the B springs. DemonGT, my older brother lives in Sparta, WI. Must be a small world. I'll post up some pics once I get the Stang cleaned.

    Comp Cams Roller Rockers?

    Depends on what kind of 1.6 rockers he got. Big difference between the Stock 1.6 & a set of the FMS or Crane 1.6 Rollers

    Roll bars in Fox hatches (Pics please)

    It does but it uses the same idea as I'm using for the crossbar, they run just a few inches off the floor. Kenny Brown SuperStreet Cage: Seems kinda pricey for a roll bar that isn't competition legal (starts at over $400). I got mine from www.swracecars.com for $169 + $64 for shipping.

    Roll bars in Fox hatches (Pics please)

    I just bought an 8 point bar for my convertible & plan on still using the back seats. The shop that is installing it suggested just mounting the crossbar lower (about 8 to 10 inches from the floor). They've done it for other customers & haven't had any problems. You'll still have the cross &...

    Professional Products any good?

    I have the Typhoon Intake & the 70MM T/B. The T/B will stick...simple fix, the shop that installed it pulled a heavier spring off a carb they had sitting around. No problems since then.

    GT just got T-boned! Now what?

    Maybe I can shed some light on this, I'm an insurance appraiser & I do this every day of my life. State Insurance Laws dictate how the actual cash value of your car is determined not the insurance companies or the "blue book". Contact your insurance company or your State's Insurance Commission...

    What to look for when buying a used/modified car?

    Check the gaps (Hood to fender, door to fender, door to quarter) if the gaps seem off (pinch together or are really spread apart) could be a sign of a prior accident (Possible frame damage). Bring a magnet & run it over the body panels (use one with felt backing if you can find one so you...

    Opinions on what should be next

    Yeah, I'm kinda leaning towards the converter idea. I'm still thinking of doing something to the suspension to get the car to hook up. I'm can always bump the bottle up to the 150 shot if I need to. Still getting the roll bar. I live near Maple Grove Raceway & I know they'll shut you down on...

    Opinions on what should be next

    It's the Edelbrock Performer Dry Kit. Currently it's only an 80shot but the kit can be upgraded to 150. I didn't get a chance to runthe car at the track this year (to busy with a position change at work) so I don't have any times yet. I want to get the roll bar because you have to have one if...

    Opinions on what should be next

    Point taken on the torque converter. Something for me to consider. I just installed the Thumper Ported E7's last year & I think I'm going to stick with them. I'm really happy with their performance. Any other suggestions?

    Opinions on what should be next

    I starting to plan my winter project & need some opinions on what should I shold do next to my LX (See Sig for Current Mods). I'll have 2 to 3K saved up but I'll need about $800 of that for a 6 point roll bar that I already plan on putting in. I want to make it a decent performing street/strip...
