    Another which Heads question

    When do AFR 185's become justifiable? I'm thinking about doing a cam/intake/head swap on a stock block 302. I was thinking about an FRPP cam, Holley or Trickflow intake, and either AFR 185's or 165's. My only mods now are typical exhaust, pulleys, TB, gears. I will add an S-trim after the...

    Tokico or Bilstein?

    Tokico or Bilstein?

    Are the Bilsteins worth the extra money? They are almost double the price of a set of non-adjustable Tokico Struts/Shocks (Tokico Premium Performance). My car has H&R lowering springs and is riding really rough on the stock shocks right now. I don't really want adjustable strut/shocks, I just...

    FRPP Lowering Springs. Any Opinions?

    I'm still running the stock shocks. If I get better ones will it stiffen up my chassis and keep it from rubbing in the front?

    FRPP Lowering Springs. Any Opinions?

    Maximum Motorsorts Advertises the drop of H&R's as 1.25 inch in the front and 1.0 in the rear. However, I think they droped my car more than that. My main concern is the front because you can't roll the fender if you are rubbing.

    FRPP Lowering Springs. Any Opinions?

    Does any one have anything to say, good or bad, about the Ford lowering springs? (They are alot cheaper than other springs on the market) How much would they lower a 91 GT? I currently have H&R Sepersports on my car and it is rubbing badly so I'm hoping that some Ford springs won't lower it...

    Which intake would you recommend?

    Holley Systemax II What about the Holley intake? I thought that was "hot" intake to have on a 5.0 in recent years especially if you have a power adder.

    How do you roll fenders?

    BlackFox5.0: Thanks for the Car Craft article man. I hate to do it but I'm gonna get out a hammer and give it a shot. My car's paint job isn't immaculant anyway.

    Driveshaft bolt removal

    From what I remember you can't get a socket on the bolts because the driveshaft is in the way right? So get the longest wrentch you have that will fit and put the box end on the driveshaft bolt. Now, take a similar sized wrench and loop its box end through the open end of the wrench on the...

    How do you roll fenders?

    Cheapest place for E-Brake Cables for Rear Disk? 5 lug Question

    I was also told that you don't need the center cable, but Ford does include a center cable in the M-2300-K brake kit which makes me wonder. I haven't hooked up my E brake yet from when I did my disc conversion so I really don't know for sure if you need the center cable or not. BTW---For...

    I'm just curious, why would you want to remove the Mach 1000? Is it not a good system? (I'm thinking about buying a car with it)

    91 GT with 03 Cobra rims

    I just checked on those NorthRaceCars brackets, they are like $150. Will the anti-moan braces bolt up to those too or do you scrap them?

    91 GT with 03 Cobra rims

    What year spindles do you have? They are not all the same. That's a problem. I forgot to ask the guy who I bought the car from whether they were the narrow 94-95 spindles or the wider 96-98 spindles. How can I tell the difference? Maybe I should just take a bat and roll my front fenders?

    91 GT with 03 Cobra rims

    My tire size is 245 front and 275 rear. When I bought the car it came with some ranger axles but I wasn't even close to being able to run the quad shocks with the the 275's back there. So I went to the salvage yard and bought a 96 rearend and used those axles/brackets/calipers for the rear...

    91 GT with 03 Cobra rims

    Just finished the 5 lug swap. Was torn between 03's and Cobra R's. I like it, but it is rubbing really bad front and rear.

    h-pipe to smog pump?

    I would just delete your entire smog system since it sounds like someone has already begun the job for you. I had the same situation as you when I bought my 91 GT recently (my pipe was cut from the H too). My car still passed an emissions inspection without it connected though. So now I'm...

    Tires Rubbing Everywhere, Need Help.

    My 91 GT is successfully chewing up my new Nitto 555's in the front and the back. I installed H&R Supersports spings from Maximum Motorsports last week and I am running 17X9 inch 03 Cobra rims with 245's up front and 275's in the back. The thing looks sweet but it rubs evey time I hit a bump...
