    What's Your Opinion On LED Headlight Bulbs

    I have switched some of my vechicles over to LED with success. There are some good videos regarding quality and ranges, I am using ~6K and only using ZES LED's. I have had good success with JDM ASTAR at 9 months on 2 vechicles. Problem is the 9004 for the Mustang seem to be out of stock or...

    I'm waiting for the build to take turn...pull the turbo sell all the turbo stuff and go naturally aspirated! It seems like we are to that point again? Come on Mike doesn't this engine make enough steam NA? You were pretty convinced last time!

    Radiator cleanup??

    I would not, I destroyed a tractor radiator with that stuff this past spring. If you are determined, use a neutralizer like baking soda immediately after. That is where I made the mistake. Even though I flushed with water for a half hour or better it still ate through the fine tubes. BTW my...

    I did notice that in the last picture and thought maybe it was intentional? I would exchange!

    Maybe because its a sport with a 2.4L and upgraded suspension and brakes. I think it was a one year deal.

    Thanks! I have a 2008 Cobalt sport and its been a great car at 175K and staying domestic I really didn't see any other viable options. I will not own a Ford crossover, car (besides Mustang) or SUV and I will not even look at a FCA/Fiat.

    Any option on the 2019 Chevrolet Malibu? I bought my wife one last fall it was a pep car with 3K miles, we now have 17K. Although it has the CVT which I was not thrilled about, so far it is a ok car. It has been back for warranty for cold start complaint, engine runs rough on cold start...

    Fox Retro guages

    I agree with Mike 140mph would be tops! I do like the 8k tac though! Overall a nice piece but agree the price is a bit steep! But if I wanted it bad enough I would buy it!

    Hood latch support rod?

    I bet that was a add on for crash safety with Federal or something Ford seen during front crash testing with the lower rad support and upper rad support.

    Looks great! A bit overwhelming as far down as you went with interior too. On the throttle cable if the outer sheath is ok. You can have a competent snow truck accessory shop make you a new cable they are standard ends. That's what I did on my carb set up after fighting with the cheap plastic...

    Mustang off the line number

    Interesting...also never heard of this report. It would be interesting to know how valid the daily production really is. I doubt it was that well documented.

    Cool glad your enjoying the car! Did you try retorqing the intake manifold? That may solve the oil leak.

    Liberty Gears did my TKO600. They bought a brand new trans and face plated 2nd, 3rd and 4th. Also Cro treated the internals and case. I believe it was ~4800 about 4 years ago. Its been trouble free.

    Progress Thread HeHateMe gets bent

    Ok maybe I missed it in another thread as it was not clear here. You went from building a turbo 2.3 to selling the car. You did mention a Falcon this past spring. But what was the reason you sold the car? I really liked your 85!

    Reminds of cleaning my 1966 tractor radiator vs buying a new aluminum one. Radiator shop tested it, tested fine. Problem is it is full of calcium build up. Apparently the EPA remove all the good chemicals from the Radiator shops in the late 80's. So I was pretty disappointed when I picked up...
