    Mustang's getting new paint, What are some good looking Blue metallic paints?

    Thanks for the suggestions, they will be painting the door jams and inside the trunk lid if I change the color far enough from black. Only thing about the brighter blues is that my engine compartment will still be black and that might look kinda nasty. I'm also thinking about some kind of...

    Mustang's getting new paint, What are some good looking Blue metallic paints?

    I'm going to be getting a full paint job within the next weeks and I'm having trouble deciding on what paint to use. The guy doing it is real good and promises that it will be a $5k paint job, I don't have to pay anything though because I did a website in exchange. I was looking at House of...

    Ported GT40P Intake and Heads on a 351W, is this a bad idea?

    I'm currently on a tight budget but can pickup a 96+ Explorer/Mountaineer engine from a friends junkyard for free. He also said he would give me a low mileage 351W in return for some recent work I did for him. So just wondering if the ported GT40P parts would flow well enough on the 351W and if...

    300+ RWHP JUNKYARD SETUP

    One of the guys that works with my dad used to professionally build race engines and he did all the porting. He offered to basiclly do it for me in order to teach me how its done. He definately knows his stuff, and if needed I will pay someone to do them but I think he will have no problem. What...

    300+ RWHP JUNKYARD SETUP

    Hey had a question for you guys about what might be the best junkyard solution to achieve 300+RWHP. I recently finished designing a website for a friend's junkyard and as part of paying me he offered me pretty much anything out of the junkyard. This could be 2-3 engines or whatever parts I might...

    5.4 DOHC Navigator Engine Swap into my 94 Mustang GT

    Thanks for the reply, I'm waiting on a 97-01 Explorer/Mountaineer GT40P Complete engine. Going to machine the heads and intake and put them on my car. Was wondering if the the block can handle being stroked to a 331 or 347.

    5.4 DOHC Navigator Engine Swap into my 94 Mustang GT

    I'm doing a website for a friend who's father owns a junkyard. As a little bonus for the project he offered me either two low cost engines if they are available or one newer engine. The majority of the junkyard stuff is 3-5 years old, so thats why newer engines would be easy for me to get but...

    5.4 DOHC Navigator Engine Swap into my 94 Mustang GT

    I can get the computer and wiring harness out of the navigator also, but I'm not sure what else I would need for the swap. I have a feeling it will be extremely expensive even with a free engine. So instead I was thinking about getting a Explorer/Mountaineer 5.0 complete engine and a 351W block...

    5.4 DOHC Navigator Engine Swap into my 94 Mustang GT

    i actually saw a 95 mustang gt with a dohc 5.4 conversion in a magazine. It was white with a shaker hood. I can't just pick out a engine and go sell it, he already offered to help install it and everything. So this means whatever engine I pick will go in the car. I'm sort of on a budget so...

    5.4 DOHC Navigator Engine Swap into my 94 Mustang GT

    I have no plans to buy another car anytime soon cause i love my sn95 and I figured the navigator engine would be a good way to make my car a little more modern. Then in the future possibly cobra independent rear suspension but I don't know much about that setup. Any ideas what exactly is...

    5.4 DOHC Navigator Engine Swap into my 94 Mustang GT

    I have the oppurtunity to pick out an engine from a friend's junkyard for free. I was originally looking for a GT40 302 or 351 Windsor. He told me today that the majority of the place is 2-3 year old car parts. They have tons of modular engines so I was considering picking up a DOHC 5.4 out of a...

    What cars contain GT40 Heads, Intake, or even better flowing parts?

    I have the oppurtunity to go threw a client's junkyard and pick out one or two engines and whatever else I might find for free. This junkyard is private and contains alot of hidden gems, I'm just not exactly sure what to look for. If possible could you guys suggest what cars I might be able to...

    Junkyard GT40P 331/347 Stroker Setup

    Awesome, then it seems like my goals are realistic. My car only has 44,000 miles on it so I'm in no rush for an engine swap, but i would like to be able to run with my friends low 13 high 12 second cars. So with a little luck, full exhaust, cam, machined gt40 heads and intake I'm hoping that wil...

    Junkyard GT40P 331/347 Stroker Setup

    I have the oppurtunity to get a complete explorer engine for free. I was considering machining the heads and intake manifold and bolting them on my 302 for now. Then start up on the block and build up a 347. Would the machined GT40P parts work correctly on a 331 or 347? Im trying to achieve low...

    Any suggestions on how to repair my dash after airbag blowout?

    Just had to gradually bend the frame as close to straight as possible. The section which was slightly flexed before, is now as close to perfect as it will get. Love your car, I can't find many people with the same front bumper. I was looking at your pics of the project and looks like you went...

    Is it possible to run low 12s with machined junkyard parts?

    i think i very well might get the ls2 and just sell it immediately. Haven't checked how much they go for, but then maybe i could pick up aftermarket bolt ons instead of junkyard parts. AFR 165 Heads, and whatever else i might need. Plus ill get an extra block that I can build either a 347 or 351...

    Thanks I appreciate it. Even mid 12s ill be happy, just need to keep up or beat my friends fbodies, one of them has a trans am and the other a camaro. I planned on picking up a GT40 302 complete engine and also a 351 Windsor. I wanted to machine all the parts off the 302 and bolt them on mine...

    Is it possible to run low 12s with machined junkyard parts?

    Im currently working on a website for a junkyard and the owner offered atleast 2 engines of my choice and whatever bolt ons i might find. The engine I will be building is a 351 Windsor. This project won't be started until the winter though. So is there any bolt ons that I might find at a...

    Any suggestions on how to repair my dash after airbag blowout?

    Hey just wondering if anyone might have any suggestions on how to repair my dash. My airbag went off in an accident and when that happened it bent this structure that supports the air bag. This caused the dash to bend slightly and now the vent doesn't line up correctly. In addition to this, it...
