    What Should I Do With Beat Up 99 35th Anniversary?

    Yeah brother. Ford made plenty. I'm sure they kept 1 or 3 for museum pieces. Leave the historical preservation to the hacks with money and space. Build that thing into what you want it to be. Racer, streeter, Sunday driver? You bought it, enjoy it.

    New To The Group And Lookin For Yalls Input

    If you have ye money left over after transmission and clutch replacement, i might consider swapping down gears. Do you like a tire fryer or are you looking to gain some top end speed? The 3.55 are pretty good for supercharged cars. My previous gt had a procharger and 3.73. I liked that. From a...

    New To The Group And Lookin For Yalls Input

    I'd say find the middle ground. Get an upgraded rebuilt 3650 and Serbs yours back for core. Get a stronger unit with upgraded synchros. http://pro-forceperformance.com/tr3650.htm

    Paint and Body New Edge, 1969 Boss Style Graphics

    I think you could build on what the pictures show. Notice the hard straight vertical front line on the yellow car. What if that same line curved around the rear of the front wheel arch and was wider so the back of the slash covered a little of the front of the door as well. Thin our the...

    I Need Help Putting Tragically Modded Car Back Together

    Have mercy on you for trying to correct another man's "hot rodding". Re-virginizing a car is a daunting task. The old cars, before miles of wiring played an integral roll in vehicle function, They were easier to put back to stock. All the gadgetry and electronics of modern or even semi-modern...

    2000 Gt Fog Light Bulb Upgrades

    Go over to LMR.com or americanmuscle.com and look at their HID or LED upgrade kits. I'm told they're much brighter over the originals which aren't really that functional.

    Jlt Oil Separators

    I've driven the car around 125 miles with the separators on. The only one that has caught anything is the pcv side, driver side on the 4 valve. When i had a 2 valve, the procharger pushed a bunch of oily residue into the intake tract and thru the blower tubes. A shop i frequented put a...

    Exhaust Manifold To Downpipe Leak

    Is there the distinct sound of an exhaust leak? Smoke might indicate that you got an oil leak falling onto the exhaust pipe or manifold. Might be a different problem if it isn't ticking loud like an exhaust leak.

    Sve Cobra 3rd Brake Light.

    I think the aftermarket spoiler requires the aftermarket third brake light, unfortunately. The do have another aftermarket spoiler that doesn't have a third brake light. You could return what you got and get that one instead.

    Oh No Another Muffler Thread!!

    My vote for mufflers alone with minimal interior noise and some decent exterior sound would be magnaflow chambered style mufflers or i might consider flowmaster as long as you keep the stock mid pipe and manifolds. Any other change with the flows and you're in drone city. They're reasonable on...

    Oh No Another Muffler Thread!!

    I had an offroad x pipe / stock manifolds / and flowmasters welded in. Thought it was cool for about a month, then when I just wanted to go here and there like a normal person, the car was moaning in your ear the whole time. Radio had to be all the way up and conversations with passengers was...

    Intermittent Vibration During Acceleration

    This one may require some video and audio to figure out.

    Bullitt Suspension Build Expectation

    Another thought about your exhaust / sway bar issue. The flange that bolts the catback to the mid pipe has a slip fit connection after it. You should be able to loosen the rear tail pipes from the front pipe/muffler assemblies, loosen the band clamp that is behind the mid pipe connection...

    Jlt Oil Separators

    Another thread about my next mod. I have a pcv prefilter on the mach 1. I wanted to get a separator for the drivers side. Just to keep the intake air cleaner inside the manifold and less sludge build up. Great deals for black Friday and such so I ordered 1. Problem is i ordered the wrong...

    Downside Of High Compression Ratio

    You might want to look into what it takes to actually increase compression. A performance tune will adjust timing making 93 octane necessary. Probably squeeze a few more ponies out of it. That's not the same as changing combustion chamber size or piston shape to increase compression. That's...

    Bullitt Suspension Build Expectation

    Maybe you could bend a hanger downward to lift the pipe and muffler upward. I the hopes it would clear it over the bar. I had the stinger cat back on my old 04 gt with eibach bars. Never had a problem. Thers probably some adjustment somewhere in there. @Dark04GT what cat back exhaust do you...

    Exhaust Manifold To Downpipe Leak

    Is the pipe properly aligned on the manifold? What kind of mid pipe? If its a modular design mid pipe weigh several pieces, maybe something needs adjusting. Perhaps loosen up the other side and the rear bolts and tighten that connection first then snug up the rest.

    Bullitt Suspension Build Expectation

    If you install a panhard bar and are worried about the adverse effects of binding, you can throw a torque arm on as well. Then you can delete the two upper control arms and have effectively changed to a 3 link suspension. Handle like the 3rd and 4th gen F bodies or the S197 cars. They really...
