    Impact Sockets

    I find that I use 3/4", 11/16", and 13/16" most (sometimes a 21mm somewhere in there). Actually, you can use the regular sockets on them, but they can shatter and throw pieces everywhere. But they're warrantied, so just don't tell them you were using them on an impact wrench and you're okay, lol.

    CRAP! I scratched the side of the stang up.

    Nate, by polisher, do you mean a polishing wheel that attaches to a drill or what? What's an orbital? Pads? lol, I only ever wash and occasionally wax the stang, I've never polished or rubbed anything (at least on the stang :D ). Let me know if you can think of that site!

    New times not what I expected....

    Yea when you go from stock gears to 3.73's or anything really, you basically gotta relearn how to drive the car all over again.

    CRAP! I scratched the side of the stang up.

    I was going down an extremely narrow one lane rock/gravel road the other day, and to avoid scraping the piss outta my undercarriage, I moved over to the edge, and apparently ran the side of my car up against some trees. There's about 3 or 4 scratches, the ENTIRE length of the passenger side...

    dyno #'s,is this ok for stock cam car

    Dude, you make as much or more than a lot of h/c/i combos! Throw a cam in the mix, and I dare say you will be a good bit over 300. Those are real nice numbers.

    QUICK, how much oil in our engines????

    17 quarts. :jester: Just messing with ya. That guy must apparently be retarded. Reminds me of the time I went to buy oil for my motorcycle for the first time. The guy tried to convince me it took 5 quarts. It's a 250cc (0.25L) motor. What the crap dude?! What an idiot. Oh yea, the...

    DUDE!! I LOVE window louvers! It reminds me of the Mach 1's in particular. If I had a coupe, you had better believe I'd have louvers on mine! :banana:

    Need a new watch (less than $600)

    I'm not really one to drop $600 on one single thing (unless it's a car part). But I would take part of it and buy some clothes, a DVD player for my room, a nice stereo for my room, just whatever. Or I could drop the whole bit on tools, I love buying tools! $600 will get you a nice guitar too.

    are the rear brake pads same as the fronts?

    We turn rotors anytime we replace brake pads. The rotor may look smooth, but it is worn according to the old pads, not turning them can speed up the wear process on the new ones.

    Blown Head Gasket Quest.

    Matt, I really doubt you have a blown HG. That's something that's usually REALLY noticeable! Oh, and never use that stop leak again!! We've had cars come into the dealership where people put that stuff in, and it's a nightmare! Back in the day, radiators had real wide runners, and stop leak was...

    are the rear brake pads same as the fronts?

    The rear pads are completely different. They have springs built in that hold them in place. As somebody else mentioned, the rear pistons can NOT just be pushed in! They MUST be twisted in, if you use a c-clamp on them, you can break the ratcheting mechanism inside!
