    Bassani vs. Borla vs. Magnaflow

    I have Magnaflow's, but they are NOT MagnaPaks. They are only slightly louder than stock. I increasingly find myself wanting them to be louder than they are, but I don't want any interior resonance. If you want loud, bon't get the non-MagnaPaks. I am probably gonna get the MagnaPak mufflers.

    Car shuts off at 98!!!!!

    You do realize that momentum could potentially add speed even after the 98 mph speed is reached, right? 5 mph isn't that much. I can push the clutch in on my '98 when I'm accelerating hard and before I can complete the shift from 3rd to 4th I've gained 10 mph. Do you remember HS...

    How much would the stock cam hold me back?

    Car Craft used a degreed stock camshaft with AFR 165 and a stealth intake with a 625 Demon on stock bore 302 to get 405 crank HP at like 6100 rpm. If the combo is right it's not a restriction at all. http://carcraft.com/techarticles/116_0307_ford/

    gt-40 crate engine dyno wtf

    Yes 24's are right for him. Yes demand for 19's is very low. I mearly mentioned new price to demonstrate that flow doesn't = value.

    gt-40 crate engine dyno wtf

    The ammount of fuel they flow doesn't effect the price. His price is actually quite good. If they are all good and they work properly $60 bucks is a good deal to the guy that needs or want's them. Ford doesn't sell 19's for significantly less becasue they don't flow as much as 24's. In fact...

    Ive bitten my tongue long enough

    That stock h-pipe is a MAJOR choke point. If any one of the cats in it are going bad, the restriction could be even worse. Ditch it. Get a MAC Power Chamber or a X-Pipe. I wish I still had my Power Chamber.

    8.8 rearend questions

    The 8.8" came out in the Mustang in 1986. The V8 '86 Capri's have the 8.8" also. Any 8.8" from '86-'93 is a total 100% bolt in.

    F303 Question

    If you are getting any kind of pop in the intake, that means something is off in your valve timing. That "pop" is the air/fuel charge igniteing in the intake. To have that happen a valve could be hung up and not closing right or the firing order could be hooked up wrong, or it may have some...

    How to ID Speedo Drive Gear??

    I know that the speedo gears are color coded. Are the drive gears inside the transmissions color coded too? What color are the 7 and 8 tooth drive gears?

    Just installed 4.10s what speedo gear do I need?

    I fyour '93 has the OEM tranny you need a 23 tooth speedo gear. 90-93 T5's haev 8 tooth drive gears and with that the closest you can get to correct is the 23 tooth speedo gear. TO calculate your needed speedo gear, use this formula (Drive Gear X Tire Revolutions per Mile X Axle...

    7 or 8 Tooth Speedo Drive Gear??

    Do you know at what speed this would be? 1 tooth difference would have to be X percent off. If it's off by 9 mph at 100 mph,then that's 9% off. Which would confirm my theory of getting 1 mile on the odometer at the 9/10 of a mile, mile marker. Which I am inclined to think is true at this...

    7 or 8 Tooth Speedo Drive Gear??

    Did some '96-'98 T45's in Cobra's come with 7 tooth drive gears instead of the normal 8 tooth drive gear? If all other factors are the same, how much would a speedo differ if a tranny had a 7 tooth from an 8 tooth gear? I put a '96 Cobra tranny in my '98 GTand my car is showing 1 mile on the...

    Slow oil leak by a tensioner pulley?

    I haven't been able to get a good close look at it yet. Will this weekend when it's on the hoist to change the oil and rotate the tires. I don't have access to a Hayne's manual, but I do have access to the Ford Dealer Technition Repair manuals so I will check into that. Thanks.

    Slow oil leak by a tensioner pulley?

    I noticed oil was slung around the path of my engine's serpentine belt. I looked around and found that there is a slow oil leak by what looks like a tensioner pulley/assembly on the middle/lower left of the front of the engine. I've heard this may have been a common problem at one point...
