    electric fan question

    Yea as said above be really careful with the wiring of the alt, it needs to be upgraded. As for the fan I think you will be pleasantly suprised. My fan clutch was really sticky was one all the time, warm or cold. The car now idles better, you can actually hear the exhaust, and made a seat of...

    Car shutting off after just a couple minutes

    Sounds like it could be a TFI as well. Will it start immediately after it shuts off? Does the tach jump around when it dies?

    Rearend Rebuild

    Well starting to piece together all the parts for my rear end rebuild but am not 100% sure of what I need. As it sits I have the stock 2.73's and a trac lok in desperate need of a rebuild. I am looking into a set of probably ford racing 3.73's and have found several used pairs. Is buying...

    BBK CAI knocking against shock towner

    Yea I know what you mean, I coulda swore I had a serious motor issue when mine knocked, a little nervice at first. I fixed it by just playing around with, the rubber couplers until it worked. I also took out a TB spacer some dummy had added.:notnice:

    Weight transfer

    Not really trying to jack thread but I was wondering with my stiff spring/swaybar combo if I unbolted my fron sway bar would it make much of a difference for the time being still using the stiff springs?

    Cooling Problem

    Well looks like I flipped for no reason. Crazy coincidence I guess, rad cap failed so it was straight open, guess it probably sucked in a big air bubble, oh well for the better. I thought it kinda odd for me to out of the blue blow a head gasket on a stock stang, I mean come on, its not a...

    Cooling Problem

    Hey today I had just finished up installing a new coolant overflow tank(did the taurus fan) and after I was done I took it for a drive, everything was fine and it ran great. Once I brought it home I was checking the system to see if it was full and noticed that I had barely any pressure, the...

    how to get that cool air intake whistle???

    Kinda wierd but my buddy has an 00 gt with a steeda cai and it whistles too, might be something with the modulars but he is still running a stock TB. If I remember correctly I think it started when he did his cams.:shrug:

    ? for 3G alternator owners

    I got mine as salvage from an insurance broker. You can actually get some pretty sweat deals, paid lest than $100(cdn.) for it and works great. Just know what car you are looking to get one off of and go for it. For install I just bought everything and did it myself. Dont be intimidated by...

    Longtubes and O2 Sensors

    Oh and I also forgot to mention that the o2's are less than a year old and are Bosch brand so I doubt them being worn out would be the problem.

    Longtubes and O2 Sensors

    Yea pics would be sweet:) I am also starting to lean even closer to this theory. Cause it almost seems to run its best one initial startup. Like the first 5 mins of driving, could this be while it is still reading the preset curves in warmup? I hope this could be my problem, tried just...

    Longtubes and O2 Sensors

    Well my mods are listed in my sig as well as I recently added a taurus fan. The problem lies in some drivability issues with hesitation when it is initially warming up. It rarely ever does it warm, when warm it runs great. I have pulled codes but to no avail. I also have been getting...

    question about 3g pulley

    Yea I tried with the stock pully and it seemed alrite but with everything on, like down to the wipers and the stereo the voltage started to drop so now I swapped it out for the fox pulley. Now I can run EVERYTHING, to a cool 14.5 volts. :D

    My fuel pump is really loud? Would this be an indication of it wearing out?

    Flywheel Help

    Well I am looking into a new clutch and coincidentally one of my buddy's has an already machined flywheel off what he believed to be an 03 cobra. Its an 8 bolt aluminum and I figure if it will fit, which i doubt, it would be a good addition. I also know its a bigger diameter, for an 11 inch...

    Please post pics of fox body Gauge cluster set up.

    Well this is mine. A little worse for wear in the pic where some of the adhesive had let go on the pleather but you get the idea, and all is fixed now. Looks alot better in real life too, and was cheap. Just a chunk of MDF and some covering.

    What type of oil to use?

    Yea im pretty anal about oil. I personally run 20w-50 Castrol GTX and like it. Good oil pressure and seems to be a decent all around oil. Although I also usually change the oil about once ever 2500 kms, just usually get bored and think hmmmm, I could probably do an oil change.

    Front Sway Bar Mounts

    Im pretty sure they make such a thing, the ones on my car are definately not stock but then again they may have come as a set as my sway bars are also not stock.
