    High flow water pump, which is best?

    my oem contour dual fan recently (so i thought) went out. i ordered a dorman replacement for the contour. it clearly doesn't flow as much air, the car runs 10-15 degree's hotter. we are nowhere near summer weather yet. basically after seeing the temps hotter, i want to maximize my cooling system...

    teaser shots...

    what trim pieces are they pulling off the car? i just painted mine too. we ended up pulling the quarter windows too. it was a real pita, but worth it imo.

    What kind of music do you listen to while driving the stang?

    depends on the mood. if im just cruising i just shuffle my ipod. if im dropping gears while street racing illegally through a school zone at 100+ without my seatbelt on and texting i listen to heavy stuff usually. also mixed with steel panther, jon lajoie, some alternative, funny chit.

    aluminum flywheel for a daily driver???

    im not on my phone now so i can type a bit easier. my experience (good so far) might differ from yours. i have a spec flywheel/twin disc clutch combo. i can engage mine smoothly with no hiccups 99% of the time. like any foxbody though, sometimes i get that imperfect feed and the car bucks...

    Gotta move back to 17s. What style wheel

    thats what im up against.. i want something better then sumitomo's that i can roll around on all the time. i know 555r's are not the best choice for straight line traction. mix in rain, commuting miles and price though, i haven't been able to beat the 555r. i guess im damned either way :D

    Gotta move back to 17s. What style wheel

    :shrug: did i say i expected alot of mileage out of these? i dont understand where you get the idea to question what i've researched either. i tried getting remotely competitive pricing from the local shops. free shipping, free mount and balance and no tax DESTROY any prayer of them beating...

    aluminum flywheel for a daily driver???

    There is less rotational weight there. It revs faster, but clutching is more difficult. It has less mass behind it to absorb anything.

    Gotta move back to 17s. What style wheel

    trust me. i know how to price stuff and save some $$. as i said, its not cost efficient to buy any kind of sticky tires for 18s. these tires aren't made to last long, they are made to get traction. go do burnouts on, ect. its 235 per tire best price online. plus either tax and 15 dollars...

    Gotta move back to 17s. What style wheel

    Thanks. I love the saleens but for a drag racing setup I think 17s will be better suited. Plus tires are literally half the cost.

    Gotta move back to 17s. What style wheel

    For the cost of me running a 555r in 18s I will just get all new stuff. It's just way more cost effective in the end for what I get.

    Gotta move back to 17s. What style wheel

    race season is coming again, i want to get some 555r's to run around the street with and to have better 60' times when i race. it costs me $40 more to just get entirely new rims/tires in 17s over just getting 2 rear tires/necessary parts for my 18's now. i have had saleen's on 3 cars now. i...

    aluminum flywheel for a daily driver???

    takes some good clutch control to drive it around stop and go. it is definately driveable though without too much issue. dont go out of your way to get one imo. i got mine for free essentially.

    Mustang 5.0 vs. B16 Civic hatch

    race him and find out who gives an f if you lose? if your afraid to lose, then you should never race anyone. go to the strip once, get your ass kicked all night, and you don't care anymore. since i went to the strip last year, i could care less if i lose or win. racing is just fun if your...

    Anyone running a Mark 8 fan and a 2 row radiator?

    mine fit with a 3 row radiator. trim the crap out of the shroud, and offset the nose of it to clear engine assembly.

    you DO REALIZE whatever springs he uses will be 100% perfect for that application right? :rolleyes: edit.. sorry forgot to underline it.

    suspension guys.. take a look please :)

    i think you have a real nice list. only thing i might throw in the mix would be the torque arm. they are pretty spendy, but i really like mine on the street. it lays down power so well, and the ride quality was notably better. good choice on the upper control arms too if your not gonna do...
