    What sealer for this intake gasket? (Pic.)

    I hate the ultra black, I much rather use the orange high temp/ high pressure silicon. My opinion aside, you can smear a little around the jackets for peace of mind.

    Max Motorsports = Best cust service ever!!

    When I was buying their coil over kit, I wasn't sure what springs to get. A quick, very helpful phone call got me what I needed, and the guy ordered it for me. Got the package 3 days later. They are a tad on the expensive/high shipping cost, but their quality and service is WELL worth it.

    I CANNOT WIN!

    You can't win? How about my weekend last weekend: I tape up the fenders, clear the engine bay (just a shortblock), tape off wiring and so forth. MINUTES before I put down the first layer of primer clouds show up. Dammit. Start spraying, then boom, RAIN. I rip the all the stuff off the fenders...

    legal advice

    Don't let the cop screw you for his mistake. He effed up the first ticket, that case is closed. Your exhaust is legal, that makes his SECOND ticked void. Go to court and ruin his day, this is pathetic if you ask me.

    Well it's been about 8 months since my car has had heads, so please bear with me, I forgot some things I used to know. 1) What plugs do I need? I remeber there was an Autolite plug and something else that were basically the same, which ones where they? 2) Since the heads are alluminum, I...

    Any tips for axle housing removal?

    Are you painting the car or the chassis? Or the the rear itself? if the painting isn't being done under the car, don't even bother pulling the rear. It's a little bit of a hassle with a floor jack and hand tools, but VERY possible. If the rear must come out, put two jacks under the frame rails...

    I have electronic Phantom gauges, and they work great. Smooth, accurate needle, no problems thus far. Maybe consider non-mechanical?

    Front Sway Bar - Need help, plastic retainers on upper mounts broken

    Nothing new to add, agree with everyone here. The plastic only serves the purpose that a wrench and socket can serve much more easily. I actually had to cut my bolts out (Rust, thread damage etc...) I'm simply using some bolts from Home Depot with locking nuts and washers, no big deal. You could...

    for those who have subs....

    If you listen to a lot o rock/metal with double bass drums and so forth, I HIGHLY suggest 2 12s in a ported box. They alternate bass and sound rediculous. If you listen to most anthing else any three of those options will be plent of bass for a stang.

    Trim removal around windshield and rear window??

I was replacing my windsheild and I juat used a small screw driver, but I cracked the glass AND I mangled the clips (I bought new ones anyway). If you don't feel...

    Cheep fix, or gambling my life?

    Nope, another reason I was considering the compression fitting. I would love to just bend up a new line, but if I can go the cheap route I will. I've heard of guys doing it before, I just want to make sure it's safe.

    Cheep fix, or gambling my life?

    That's what I was originally going to do, but the place around me don't have sizes larger than 60", I'm almost ceritain that line is over 60", so I will need a union anyway.

    Cheep fix, or gambling my life?

    As my engine bay cleaning/painting woes continue, today I broke the passenger sid brake linea right at the Master Cyl. The 3rd line in the MC, the one that bypasses the stock prop valve (It IS the pass side line right?), broke from rust and my attempt to take it out. Now, since I need the car...
