    98 Gt...yes I Know.... Mods?!

    Okay hotmustang331...I re-read your post I understand better what you mean now....yea, KB isn't reminding you on the site that the PI motors start off with 30-40 more HP to begin with. Your right. I thought you were dissagreeing with supercharging as an alternative in general. Sorry. If you can...

    98 Gt...yes I Know.... Mods?!

    I am not sure I understand what you are saying. Regardless what the KB site says, he is making around 180-185 rwhp stock...with the mods I listed he will be over 325 rwhp, not the KB alone, but "the package". I guarantee with the KB he will be over what I am making with a lowly M90 Eaton, and...

    98 Gt...yes I Know.... Mods?!

    I did what you did unfortunately. Bought a super sweet low mileage 98 NPI slow boat to China. You said you were working a year to get the money so you have some time and some resources. IF you are dedicated to sticking with your car like I am, because you don't have little penis syndrome and...

    How to correct pre 99 cable speedometer

    Okay, here is the story. I installed 3.73 gears on my 98 and put in the 23 tooth tranny gear to correct the speedo. Should have put it pretty darn close. After that, I put on white face gauges. I removed the speedo needle to do this naturally. When I reinstalled it, the speedo was way, way off...

    Do you happen to know what the timing is now at WOT? Or what it is on a stock program?

    Do I need new Valve Springs?

    The part numbers for the NPI head and the PI head valve springs are the same, and supposed to be good to @ .525 lift. I put in Comp Cams with .495 lift and did not change springs, but my motor only has 55K on it. I think I would change them if I had the miles on the motor you do. After looking...

    just got my car dyno'ed!

    What makes those numbers even better is that was done on a Mustang dyno. They are usually lower than a Dynojet. :nice:

    just got my car dyno'ed!

    Make sure you are not missing the footnote about adding 1 quart for a filter change. I don't know exactly how it is worded, but it does mention it. At any rate, the engine is designed to run on 6 quarts. I find it hard to believe that the oil level would be very far from the full mark on the...

    98 Mustang GT upgrades

    You sure there isn't a PI head swap runnin around in there somewhere? What's a stock 98 5-speed make, about 190 rwhp on a good day? You need to bottle that, cause those are some great numbers from an intake and an X-pipe.

    98 Mustang GT upgrades

    What he said. Other than gears, about the only mod I did on mine that was worth it was the blower. The NPI head cars basically suck as far as power and do not respond well to most mods.

    Dent pics, Was Told PDR Cant Be Done, Opinions!

    Depends on the severity of the dent. Small door dings can certainly be removed. Being on a crease can be a problem though. Your pics really do not show too much, and in fact it looks almost like someone has rubbed thru the clear.....kinda like discoloration in the area. I would do as the...

    hood pins???

    z1n, dude, you must love to type! I think this was a great write-up for the guy to install pins. And very good pics too. The FRPP pins are the only way to go, and are the only 100% stainless pins I could find. Good job. :flag:

    internals with KB 9psi??

    You guys don't forget that boost is a measurement of restriction. You are pumping a rather large volume of air with the KB screw blower into a motor with stock cams, stock heads (although good ones), and stock manifolds it appears, and catted midpipes. I also showed higher than rated boost until...

    Tune/clunk question

    If you get an SCT Excalibrator, you should be able to alter when each gear engages as well as how firm they engage. I have been getting tunes e-mailed to me. The tuner is tweaking a few things for me, and we are going to dial in the shifts over the weekend. The SCT software will allow you to do...

    cam install gone WRONG!!!

    Hey da zman, no offense to you but as far as your friend goes, GOD SHOULD'T LET SOME PEOPLE(his parents) REPRODUCE! That is the first thing to note here. My 98 only has 54,000mi on it and I put on less than 1500 a year. It ran perfectly in every respect before my cam install, so IMO tearing it...

    275 wide tires on stock 8" bullit rims.

    You don't miss anything do ya?......I am running the Ford Racing chrome version, and I haven't seen them in 8 inch, however replica companies may make a counterfeit 8 inch. Looking at the sidewall of the tire, I would guess they were 9 inch though. Nice stance on the car, I'll say that. Whats...
