    Clearence for Trickflow Top End Kit?

    Mine fits fine with the MM strut brace. I do get some minor contact between a small part of the hood and the upper intake, enough to mar the paint on the intake :mad: , but nothing significant. At some point I will grind that back and repaint the intake. Lifters are lifters as far as I'm...

    HP GAIN TRICKFLOW HEADS!!!!

    +1 to that. Removing all the accessories is enough work that you might just wanna wait if there is a cam in your future.

    Subframe install?

    Most good shops will install them on a muffler shop style life (raising the car from its tires). It IS important to have the car loaded on its suspension. Install prices, I'd expect anywhere from $70 if you get a deal from a friend to prolly about $150 otherwise.

    Who makes good ceramic long tubes for our cars?

    IMHO, I like my BBK LT headers just fine.

    MGW or Triax?

    Oh ya, when you order your MGW, get one of their shift knobs. Slow50Sally got one in the pic above. I got one too (mine's a little different). But MGW makes the highest quality aftermarket shift knobs that I have even seen. And once you lock them in, they NEVER come loose. Mine looks like...

    MGW or Triax?

    MGW. I love mine. It's actually even more quiet than the stock POS.

    BBK Headers...Chrome or Ceramic?

    ROTFLMAO!!!!! incorrect They may cool off faster, but no way you can get within a city block of headers within 5 minutes (btw, i have ceramic LT headers).

    If you watch that twice, you are disqualified from driving a Mustang by default.

    3.55 vs.3.73?

    Thanks Justin for the most correct answer to that question. Cribbs: If you have an auto, go 4.10. If not, 3.73. RPM at 70 will be perfect either way. These are the gears Ford should have installed at the factory. Enjoy!

    what is drone???

    According to Wikipedia, exhaust drone is the negative byproduct of aftermarket exhaust whereby not only is the intended result of an improved and augmented WOT exhaust note achieved, but an undesirable increase in exhaust noise at cruising speeds. All brands tune their cat-backs differently, so...

    115k too high for vortech????

    No idea dude. But I have read this exact same post enough before to tell you that you prolly need a compression and leakdown test to really tell you the condition of your short block. If that checks out OK, then go for it. But don't take my word for it, I have no clue when it comes to...

    what gears?

    If you are still stuck, get the 3.73's. IMHO, 3.55's will leave you wishing you went with more gear, 4.10's make 1st gear just a little silly (I had 4.10's so I'm speaking from experience - you will be shifting into second before your rear tires roll across the stop line), and 3.90's are not...

    Trick flow H/C/I kit????

    Disassembling a top end is kind of involved. It's a little more than bolting it up and going. Even with a kit, you will need some extras. I went with the TFS top end kit, and sub-ed out the cam for one from AFM. Added to that, I went with a bigger fuel pump, bigger injectors, MAF to match ...

    what gears?

    First question with gear choice is: AODE or T-5? If you have an automatic, the dogmatic answer is 4.10, and 3.73 for a stick. From that, you need to think about what you want to do with your car, and what you might do down the line. If you are thinking of leaving it pretty stock, as you have...

    big speed bumps are satans weapons against mustangs

    I don't. I'm sure if you made them strong enough you'd be OK. But how would you ever really know they are strong enough? Better yet, pick up 2 sets of those plastic ramps that you can get at the parts store. Then you could jack it up and support the car on jack stands AND ramps. That...

    big speed bumps are satans weapons against mustangs

    Please please please be absolutely sure about jack stand placement. Get under an improperly supported car and you are signing a DEATH WISH. Seriously. Also, buy some proper wheel chocks - stop using 2x4's. And always work on a LEVEL surface. I believe the proper jack stand location is not...

    HOW TO POST BIG PICS WITH PUTFILE?

    I use photobucket.com. It's free, and pretty good. The pics are plenty big for forum posting too.

    Header Gasket and bolts

    Breslin makes locking header bolts too. And I think they may be easier than stage 8 locking bolts. I have a set of 1" Breslin bolts. I'd say you should definitely go with the 1" bolts (and measurng - as mentioned above - is a good idea to make sure you dont bottem out). Then torque em down...
