    Headlight Suggestions

    I prefer them in the stock headlight assemblies as opposed to aftermarket projectors. No problems here with glare either in the 3+ years I've been using them.

    Fuel Economy!

    OD is on by default every time you start the car, so it is unlikely that OD being off is the source of the problem. To comfirm though, find out what the rpm is at a given speed and compare that to what others on here experience with similarly equipped 99 models. Also +2 on need more kowbell

    Does my 04 Vert look ricey?

    No, it's not ricey. You have done a good job of it, and it's not "rice" in that it doesn't have stickers or emblems plastered on it advertising that it's something it's not.

    Yes, the '99-'04 GT and '03-'04 Mach 1 use the same midpipe. I am sure because I have a MRT catted midpipe on mine and it would fit the GT as well. It went in with no fitment problem whatsoever, and has given me no problems at all for the last 30,000 miles since installation.

    Tuner?

    HPP Racing in Lewisville, TX That is rather far from Leesville though, but not more than a mere seven hour or so drive.

    Any catback or midpipe made to fit a '99 - '04 GT will also fit the Mach 1. You will have to use Cobra brake pads though when it comes time to replace them.

    Im getting pretty Dissapointed in my Stang

    I don't care for the sn197 at all. I'm going to keep what I have until it dies.

    Barneystang Dyno Results

    +1 on the A/F running on the lean side. Mine is very close to a flat 13.0 with a custom Predator tune.

    Help me decide...

    The best first mods to a Mach 1 are, in my opinion, 4.10 or 4.30 rear gears, and an aftermarket midpipe and catback.

    Buying Gears today?

    I don't think Ford will do that. If you're picky about accurate mileage on your odometer, simply record the number of uncorrected miles you accumulate, and you can temporarily over-adjust the rear gear correction with the XCal 2 when you get it to compensate for the incorrect mileage.

    Back In The Game

    20K for a keeper car isn't so bad. Back in '03, Mach 1's for often selling for sticker when they were first introduced. I traded a 2001 GT that I had about $2000 in equity in on mine, and just paid it off last year. No problems at all with it other than having to replace the rear shocks and...

    Friend had his mach 1 dynoed...drool

    I hope to crack the 300HP barrier the next time I get a dyno run in. The last time I did it the temps were in the upper 90's, and I've since added an intake spacer.

    new gears for automatic?

    4.10's here in both my '03 Mach 1 5-speed and in my wife's '04 V6 automatic. Wouldn't go with anything different, and they are both used as daily drivers and have been on long highway trips without any significant drop in gas mileage compared to the stock gears.

    Steeda Tri-Ax vs MGW

    +1 I have the MRT shifter on mine, which is a Tri-Ax clone (even has Tri-Ax cast into the handle) and like it just fine. The MGW was not yet in production when I bought the shifter I currently have about three years ago, and while the MGW may very well be better, I am not going to change or...

    Changing tranny oil questions

    You're fine. Like I posted previously, I only put 3.0L (3.2 quarts) in mine when I drained and re-filled it, and my T3650 transmission has been performing flawlessly for the 30K+ miles since doing so.
