    big speed bumps are satans weapons against mustangs

    The fumes were probably heat rising, forming that hazy dance look like on the blacktop of a playground. Jack it up and starting grabbing the pipe at different spots to check for the pipes hitting the frame.

    RIPPED OFF BY: liberty mustang supply MODERATOR NOTE: THIS IS AN OLD THREAD

    Did a domain search for their website and here is who it is registered to. Got some phone numbers. I hate to say it but Cincinnati Composites may be who makes these hoods. Yes they do suck. They are out of a run down trashy warehouse. I would at least try to call this number and see what you can...

    Manual Steering rack?

    OK I have read a lot on this lately. I want to ditch my power steering pump for the 5.0 I have in my 99. I have found a manual rack and pinion for my 99 Mustang. I wanted to know if when I buy this I can re-use the old steering shaft? They sell this kit for $279.00 but for $400+ that sell the...

    What web browser do you use?

    Mozilla means less pop-ups, better security due to less hackers expecting to get into your system, and it just sticks it to the Microsoft man who forces it down your throat when you load up Windows.

    Charge Light flickers upon peak revving?

    Been awhile since I have asked a question on here but this one has me stumped. I noticed when I am getting on the accelerator that right before I shift the battery/charge light would flicker. I thought maybe I had an alternator issue and the belt was slipping on the pulley. Well I measured the...

    i killed the drone

    I would use barb wire instead. I hear the CFM flow rate is actually a little better than chicken wire. http://www.whydidthechickencrosstheroad.com/sounds/super-chicken/chickencharge.wav

    BYPASSING LOW OIL SENSOR

    Its either closed or open to ground. You can test this by taking a continuity setting on a voltage meter and going from the pan to the end of the sensor. If the meter pegs out or beeps depending on your meter when empty you have to connect the wire that goes to the sensor to ground. If you have...

    Are 7.5 axels the same as an 8.8

    Different due to ring gear. Not as strong. OK under V6 engine. Life is limited under STRONG v8 power. They are the same bolt up more or less. I pull the 8.8 from my 95 and slapped it under a 99 that had a 7.5 in it. Same EVERYTHING except for one thing. The 8.8 had shorter axle tubes so I had to...

    Remanufactured Distributor or Replace Stator

    If you do decise to replace the guts and not the whole thing, MARK the position of the cam gear with a scored mark. That pin hole is never straight and only likes the original position. I would also say that you can fold in the bottom of the shaft if you are not careful and the oil pump drive...

    95 v6 to v8 swap, anyone done this??

    I disagree. You can not tune Ford OBD 1 system in a 95 GT worth a crap unless you spend bid money on the tweaker type systems. The stock CPU program sucks for performance. The system hates aftermarket cams. You hear the same old BS about how my car runs fine with this or that change but mine...

    95 v6 to v8 swap, anyone done this??

    Not impossible at all. You want to really do it? Forget about the computer system. I own a 99 V6. I purchased a new tubular K-Member, carb, carb intake. Forget the OBD. I purchased a C4 tranny, torque convertor, and the proper bellhousing. I swapped out the 7.5 rear already for the 8.8 out of my...

    Thermostat Problems

    Best thing to do is to take out the T-stat get a pot of water. Get a thermometer capable of 200+ degrees and boil it to watch when it pops open. I would suggest just buying a good t-stat. Not a cheap Stant. Mr Gasket is good. I would just replace the sensor also. The sensor is over a decade old...

    Flo-Pro Twister muffler & Moroso Spiral muffler

    There was no drone at low RPM at all. It was really no different than an open pipe to be honest with you when your on the gas. I had the twisters, but I went and got the Jones thunder packs.

    Flo-Pro Twister muffler & Moroso Spiral muffler

    I ended up getting rid of them. They sounded like ass. They scream like a wide open pipe so there really is no noise reduction. The drone was not that bad though. The Flowmasters were way worse in that department. I went with a Jones Exhaust shorty pack. They are not like a regular glass pack...
