    what vehicle to get 460 from??

    dont take this as gospel, but your best bet might be a wrecked RV/Mobile Home or perhaps an old super duty pick-up/dump truck/etc. I know the last time I was at the yard, all I saw were 5.0's and 351's in the older pickups. Sadly, a lot of the 460 cars have been scrapped already...you might...

    Help me spend $100 at Jegs

    Yeah at the moment the AODE is 100% stock. the tranny gets a bit unhappy after some spirited driving (when it gets hot - after multiple WOT blasts and no cool down). holding up okay at the moment, but i can't imagine it lasting much longer. the car only has 58,xxx miles on it. I did have one...

    I have a Transgo kit; It's sitting in my closet though...planning to install it when I buy a new TC this summer.

    Help me spend $100 at Jegs

    I thought about buying tools - but the more I looked through the Jeg's catalog I got discouraged. A lot of the tools listed in there seem to be of suspect quality. Lots of Chinese imports and the like, which I'm not interested in. I like the idea of a bushing kit, however.

    Help me spend $100 at Jegs

    Just like the title says...got a gift certificate for Christmas and need some ideas on how to spend it - and I don't want to go over $100 by that much. I'm on a tight budget at the moment. Give me some ideas! I'm thinking about getting motor/trans mounts...

    That made me laugh so hard. IDK why, but it definitely improved my morning.

    1999 Cobra Plug Wires!?

    Careful when you are changing your plugs. The COP's tend to dry rot over time and the boots will crack when you pull them out if you're not gentle with them.

    How long can it run?

    Agreed! Keep your oil changed regularly...I forget where the quote is from, maybe the Haynes repair book, but it goes something like this: "Oil changes are the most important preventative maintenance that can be done by the home mechanic"

    1999 Cobra Plug Wires!?

    if you are speaking about the FRPP wires, I believe those are strictly for the '96-'98 Cobras (for use with the coil packs). Coil On Plugs would require you to get some Motorcraft replacements or upgrade to MSD/Granatelli or the like. Count on paying $300+ or so for a full set.

    i wonder if this is what dstang01 had in mind when he posted "fox body craving" ???

    Fox body craving?

    i think we all get a fox/notch craving. I know I do every year...anyone on here see Tim Stockwell's light blue AOD notch? he was doing an old school build - it was on his site> www.5litermustang.com Not my favorite color combo, but Tim Stockwell can give anyone a fox craving after you...

    If You Were To Build Another Mustang

    for me, either a factory five cobra or '33 with a blown modular engine But if it had to stay Mustang chassis, I'd say a Fox notchback with some kind of kenne-bell fed modular lurking under the hood. Don't ask me why, I'm a sucker for modern tech in an older chassis. Now, if I were to be...

    dreaming...stock short block limits

    i guess i'm more worried about the internals letting go and damaging my cylinder heads!

    dreaming...stock short block limits

    what about the cast pistons and rods? i know the block can live if i have a conservative tune... and AODE will probably be replaced with a Lentech or PA unit when it finally dies.
