    1996-98 4.6L GT or 1995 5.0L GT

    If you're most interested in speed, not necessarily reliability, go with the 5.0. I feel that the 4.6 is a superior engine in terms of longevity, but it is more expensive to modify and suffers from a breathing problem. Since you will be purchasing an older car, keep in mind the 5.0 will...

    *VERY* dissapointed with my new FRPP King Cobra clutch

    maybe its the place where you are getting the clutches installed... I have a king cobra clutch, and have had it for about 20k miles now, and i'm very happy with it... no slop, its seems very strong, and you can definitely feel where it will engage every single time. My only complaint is that...

    Clutch Question

    I'd say 60k is about right.. my 96GT's clutch would slip when it got around that mileage.. replaced it with a king cobra. I'd say wait until you actually notice it slipping though. Chris

    Leaked email from Ford Employee

    all i know is that ford has alot riding on the new mustang; if they mess up, which i hope they don't, then ford is going to go under... their stocks have been dropping really bad, this is the only thing thats going to pull them out (huge recalls don't help either)
