    polished intake, painted dash... what next?

    Just thought I'd post some pics of my work. First time I ever polished anything, or painted an interior for that matter... seems to have come out pretty good. Could use a little more polishing, but way better than that stock look. I'll probably end up selling it soon to get an explorer intake --...

    $5000 mint job - buffed and polished $4000 good job - might be buffed and polished $3000 - nice, but buff it yourself $2000 - hopefully they added extra clear so you can buff it <$2000 - earl shibe

    Leaky header make this sound??

    I pulled the h-pipe to header connection apart and put some high temp silicone on there about a week ago. It quieted down a little bit but I still think I may have a header leak cause it's still getting worse -- I can only hear it from under the car (not the engine bay), but with my ear up to...

    I've got struts off a 99' on my fox and they look exactly the same as the stock ones did.

    Leaky header make this sound??

    On the way home from work today I got on the gas a little bit and when I hit 4k RPMs I heard an awful noise, so I let up and babied it for a while. Seemed like it was driving fine so I tried it again -- got the same sound again. The best way I can describe it is, it sounded like I was dragging...

    Odd Cooling Problem

    I replaced the cap and radiator together about a year or so ago, so I don't think that's the problem. I just changed the oil about 2 weeks ago and there wasn't any coolant in there that I noticed. It's weird, I don't really smell anything while I'm driving, but when I go out there after it's...

    Odd Cooling Problem

    No leaks from the housing, nothing from the intake either that I can find. The car is running pretty well, it's got a little bit of hesitation at about 2k RPMs but I'm figuring thats probably related to something else. Head gasket would probably be bad at any RPM range.

    Odd Cooling Problem

    I was having a problem where my overflow would not stay filled up, I replaced the upper/lower hoses and the TB hoses as well, but it still never fixed my problem. The radiator stays filled all the way to the top, but the overflow will be empty within a week or two. I pulled the overflow off and...

    Valve train clatter???

    The engine runs fine, I don't see any problems with the header gaskets. But I guess if it broke on the bottom I wouldn't see it anyway. Maybe I'll just replace em and see. thanks

    Valve train clatter???

    My car sounds like crap under light acceleration (probably higher R's too, but the exhaust gets too loud to hear it), I did a search and I heard that it could be caused from valve train noise echoing due to my O/R pipe. What should I check to see if this is my problem? I figured it was an...

    H-Pipe with cats install(did search)

    I used heater hose, it was only temporary, but it lasted almost 500 miles without showing any signs of melting or wear.

    New Barometric pressure sensor cost?

    Oh, and if you need the 90-93 computer, you'll need either a A9L or A9P model, depending on whether you have a 5 spd or AOD. If you do a search for "mass air conversion" you'll get more info than you want to know on this topic.

    New Barometric pressure sensor cost?

    I dont really know about the sensor, but if it's a stock mustang part you should be able to get it at a parts store, or if not the dealer should have it -- shouldn't be too much $$ if the store has it, who knows what the dealer would want. As far as the computer goes, when mine went out I got...

    strut brace questions???

    I wasn't talking about making a hole in the brace. In the back of the strut tower there is a hole big enough to fit the wires through it, I was gonna push the wires through and then make another hole in the front to pull them back out. Basically I was just gonna hide some wires since I've got...

    strut brace questions???

    Nah, for the moment I just made the holes slightly smaller than the bolts and drove them in. I'm gonna redo it this weekend when I have an assistant to help from the underside of the car. Those wires barely fit under the brace, but I can still move them though. I think I'm gonna make a hole...

    strut brace questions???

    Yeah, I was wondering about that. After I drilled through the firewall, I was thinking to myself that it wouldn't support much under any stress. I'll have to go get some steel and make a backing plate for it. Looks pretty good with just the 2 sides installed though. Got some pics below, it...

    strut brace questions???

    I'm not sure what brand it is, I won it off of ebay for $40. I was looking at a few online shops and they say that there is a different model for a coupe and convertible, maybe thats why your BBK didnt fit. This guy said he was gonna install it on a hardtop, but I figured there couldn't be too...

    strut brace questions???

    Just received my strut brace today, I put it in for a test fit and it seems OK, but it seems like I'll have to flex it a little bit to get all of the bolt holes to line up, but I figure thats probably normal. I'm just wondering about the part that bolts to the firewall, is there anything on the...
