    Supercharging?

    Do NOT use both a 255 hp in tank pump and an in line pump like the t-rex. A Walbro HP 255 will supply you with enough fuel to meet your needs on its own. I installed both and I'm having headaches with the t-rex, so just don't.

    Supercharging?

    What compression are you running? Your current fuel upgrades aren't going to cut it. You will need bigger injectors (which means a MAF re-cal) and a bigger probably a 255 fuel pump too. I don't see any problem with you hitting your 400 whp goal. I make 313 whp after adding a Vortech (seeing...

    Computer Re-flashed?

    I went to the dealership for O2 sensors before and I believe they asked for this number and another number that was also in the door jamb. I think it is just a way for Ford to identify vehicles and parts.

    Wingless Pics inside.

    I meant painting the white part black, but he said he likes it and I think was wondering how to blacken the lights themselves. Here are some pictures of my other car: They clear coat could have come out better, but it's good enough for just a winter beater. EDIT: By the way, that was 5...

    Wingless Pics inside.

    There's a product called VHT Nite Shades that does exactly that. Depending on how many coats you put on depends on how dark it is. It lets the light through the lens and paint, but it isn't quite as bright as stock, of course. I did this on my other car and love the results. You can get it at...

    Wingless Pics inside.

    I never really cared for the wingless look on our cars, but if you like it then cool man :nice: I also think your car would look good with the tail lights painted black...

    Anybody in or near Michigan

    Like I said before, absolutely :nice: I guess I was a little hasty about the 2 weeks and pulling the car out too stampede because we're due for another 4-6 inches of snow. I tell ya man, last year at this time I was underneath the car with the roads and grass clear :notnice: Although...

    battery relocation pics????

    Click That is one of my favorite ones done on the site that I've been able to find. It isn't the Summit kit, but it gives you a good idea on wiring, a potential place for a shut off (if you want to go to the track and have it legal), and other stuff.

    Centerforce, Mcleod, or Spec clutch for softer pedal feel??

    I have a Mcleod clutch and like it pretty well. The pedal feel is definitely not as soft as stock but I have no problems with that. In the beginning I had a tiny bit of clutch chatter, but it went away after about 500 miles. I really like it.

    94 with a SC and Vortech cooler on Speed TV

    "I didn't know it was runnin', that's what scares me about my 11.40". Hah. I'm thinking he just has whatever a Vortech "MaxFlow" Powercooler is. He says he has a supercharger intercooler... not a supercharger WITH an intercooler :rlaugh: The alternator is in the stock location so he...

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    20 minutes north of Lansing. Being in Grand Rapids you and I are relatively close and I could always use more Stang buddies :nice: A trip over that way could be very possible! Poka, you got nothing to worry about my friend. I do my best to respect the thoughts and opinions of others on this...

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    I didn't and still don't won't this to become a pissing match between you and I (which is dang near what its already become), but I think you aren't seeing my point. I understand that you can run 500 tq through a T5 and have it survive, in some cases for several years. I also understand the...

    Edelbrock Performer 2 on 95GT?

    I think most of us can agree that the RPM 2 is a good intake if he has future modifications in mind, specifically heads and a cam, but we can't be sure of that. OP, if you don't plan on a set of heads and a cam than there are better intakes for you at this point in time. However, if you do...

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    If you like the traction lok differential that you have now you could purchase a 31 spline Ford traction lok, 31 spline axles, a set of gears (and what it takes to install them) and that's about it. The 31 spline traction lok fits right into our 8.8 carriers. Of course it has to be shimmed and...

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    Talk about mis-information :notnice: Just because you're choosing to stick with the T5 with similar power as he may make doesn't mean it's the right choice. The T5 has a rating of 300 for torque for a reason; that's what it can handle. When you go above that torque rating you're playing with...

    Edelbrock Performer 2 on 95GT?

    If you're talking about the RPM 2 (which has a listed powerband from 1,500-6,500) than I would shy you away from it with the mostly stock motor. An intake is a good upgrade to get but you may be better off looking for a set of heads for the price of an intake (unless you find a good deal...

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    I re-read your initial post and see you put that it will never see a track. Rebuilding the traction lok and welding the tubes and torque boxes as Pokageek suggested is perfectly acceptable :nice:

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    Your T5 could very well hold up until you are good and ready to replace it with something else, but it could also have a synchro go, or maybe even bend splines on the input shaft, there is just no way to tell. It's best to look at things for the purpose. You aren't going to put in a more...

    NA 351 or S/C 302?

    I assume this isn't your sole mode of transportation and is a fun toy to take out when you please? I can tell you that all new parts and supporting mods just for the vortech (including tune) cost me almost $6,000. The car is pretty reliable and I really love to drive it, but I might have to...

    Recommendations?

    With $1k you won't be making 300 rwhp, and you won't be doing it with something like gt40 heads either (assuming you stuck NA). A nice set of aluminum heads (AFR, TrickFlow, etc.) a custom cam, and a good intake to match should get you to your goal. Also with 300 rwhp you'd be looking at...
