    Help Ole Rusty !

    300-400hp out of a v-6? A full bolt on 4.6 will barely crack 300 n/a on a good day. You're going to work twice as hard and spend twice as much money to make a v-6 fast. They weren't meant to be that. They are very good commuter motors as you've discovered with well over 300k on it. Grab...

    Mustang 2003-04 Oem Subframe Connectors

    If you're going to weld them in place anyway, spend $60 and buy a set of aftermarket ones that are way stiffer.

    Sub Frames

    Get full length if you can afford it. That's one area I cheeped out on that I wish I would have spent a tad more. And +1 on the factory ones being more for show than function.

    New 96 Mustang, Have A Little $$$!

    Do not waste your money on underdrives. They cause charging issues and potentially major balance issues if you spin the car very hard. TB/Intake plenum are always helpful as well as a tune once you're done. Save for some PI heads/cams (or aftermarket cams) and you'll have a fun ride...

    No, a procharger. Same concept though. :)

    6lbs turns into 10lbs... Ask me how I know. :) Build the car to support your HP goals. Sounds like you already have a trans but don't forget the rear end, suspension, and tires as well as any needed safety devices (Drive shaft loop at a minimum). Maybe put the ole girl on a diet as well.

    Where To Apply Silicone On Headlights

    You'll have to follow the "seams" and apply a bead to that. It depends on if it's OE or aftermarket as to how pronounced the seam is. I sealed my aftermarket ones and some seams were easier to keep clean than others due to the casting. I used clear outdoor silicone and it's held up well...

    Think I Can Hit 12s?

    FWIW to help your decision my car just went 11.45@119 this past weekend. It has more in it at that if I can get it out of the hole a tad quicker and put the fat girl on a diet.

    Pi Cylinder Head Question

    The cams, valves etc should be. The cam caps no.

    Progress Thread 1998 Gt Procharger Build--dyno And Track Numbers Inside

    New times today. Not a bad day at all. I removed the procharger intake tube and filter for the turbo guard and picked up .35 and 3 mph. Restrictive little bugger.

    Don't daily it and put a blower on it then go beat on it is my advice. Buy a dependable daily and a set of big/littles and have fun. Save for next year then put a blower on it. The positive displacement has better seat of the pants feels but typically (not always) the centrifugal cars are...

    Pi Swap Disaster!!

    Yeah those heads are scrap metal at this point. Good Luck. I lost a nice set of Fox lake heads due to oil issue's and they alone took out a built forged motor. I feel your pain.

    Warm Start Issue

    Yeah but there should be cold and warm start settings for the fuel retard.

    Warm Start Issue

    It could be something in the tune needing adjusted to lower the fuel being sprayed upon cranking (there is a term for this that is eluding me).

    Think I Can Hit 12s?

    Pi swap it (stock heads, small cams) and put a blower or n2o on it. We built a n2o 98 with stock pi heads and small cms cams. It went 11.90@115 on a 125 zex wet shot. Was a full suspension car so that was about all it had (cut 1.50 60 ft times). It broke about every part known to man due to...

    Think I Can Hit 12s?

    No. My car on 10lbs and NPI setup only ran 12.70's @ 111 or so. Put down 340 with a stock stall. N/A my car ran 14.20's. A manual car might net lower 13's but with the auto you're gong to be a 13.50 car at best with traction. If you're wanting to put down 320/340 NA then you're going to...

    Are your tires slightly different sized? (I'm too lazy to re read the thread to see if we already asked that) lol
