    Rod knock?

    fram is a fine filter and has nothing to do with oil drainback into the pan from the heads. if you have rod knock just rebuild the engine. 95 were known for head gaskets leaks. are you sure you don't have a leaky gasket causing a light hydrolock? you may have both problems now. leaky...

    351w Is Coming Out 2.3 Is Going In!!!

    the 7.5 is really not weak just the ford T-lok that was used is weak. spyders are too small and not enough support. the Auburn LSD is an easy fix for the 7.5 "weakness" also TA performance has a 7.5 girdle for about $160. with those additions the 7.5 can handle almost the same power as...

    REAR ENDs!

    get the 4.10's then. i got 22 mpg with them on the hwy. to me every mpg saved is better power and efficiency is my target. TP is right as far as a power adder is concerned. 3.73's are about max. that has been my experience. 4.10's are not needed but if you loved them then what...

    REAR ENDs!

    your machI responds completely different to gears than a 3.8 does. the V8 doesn't have the same highway drone as the 6 does and the 4V engine likes steep gears where they are unnecessary in the 6 the 3.8 does get better milage with higher gears that is a fact. i don't believe you...

    REAR ENDs!

    just to chime in here. when i had my 4.10's i saw a 8mpg drop in milage from stock 2.73's in my 98 on a trip to Ft meyers Fla From Pittsburgh. 30mpg down to 22mpg same trip same car. the next year same trip with 3.73's and addition of an 11 psi procharger returned 26mph. 4.10's do get...

    Newbie / Bought a 94 Mustang 3.8L with a blown motor...

    i built turbo buicks in the past. great engines but the heads suck especially the stock shaft rockers the ford has few of the buicks downfalls. build the ford like a turbo buick and similar results will be rewarded. the ford will produce alittle more power/level of boost if turbo is what...

    Newbie / Bought a 94 Mustang 3.8L with a blown motor...

    the ford 3.8 was a modified copy of the 231 buick and is a good design with a stout on-center block design unlike the off-center buick231 the bottom ends are very strong just like the buick. the heads can be easily ported to support 220+cfm flow on the intake side head gasket problems in...

    7.5 to 8.8 swap

    you can bolt the 8.8 right in. i know on the SN-95 V6's the quad shock mounting points are there just waiting for the quad to be bolted to it. if your V6 fox has the mounting points then just bolt up the quads

    Who Wears A Helmet At The Track Going 15s And Up

    how old are you? you don't act more than 20. i have never heard anybody whine on here about wearing a helmet nor on 3.8mustang.or v6power or corral net. you are the one bringing up the topic. if you don't want to wear a helmet that's fine. that's your prefrence but don't try to...

    Who Wears A Helmet At The Track Going 15s And Up

    seriously you have posted this argument on 3.8mustangs and got the same results. i have been racing for more than 15 years and every track i have been to requires the use of a helmet regardless of 1/4 time. i saw a guy in a 16 sec honda lose a half shaft at about 3/4 track and hit the...

    People wanna keep talkin $h*t about 05s

    05=awsome design 05=poor V6 choice the 4.2 truck block would have made a better choice. the only reason the 4.0 was chosen is because ford wanted an OHC engine for the entire lineup the colonge block based 4.0 is a good engine but not nearly as much potential as the Essex block has...

    Who Wears A Helmet At The Track Going 15s And Up

    go ahead and split your skull. just when you think it's hard to wreck at the track is when it will happen. you are just making an a$$ out of yourself laughing at somebody else wearing a helmet in a 15+ sec car. it's not the slow car that you drive that you need to worry about it's the...

    Turbos/Superchargers

    550rwhp and go to a built C4 or a built tremec. my vote is C4 for easier launches

    autolite platinum for blown pony??

    conductivity makes no difference in igniting the fuel. platinums require more gap which is bad for blowers. the flame kernel gets blown out causing misfires also the ehat range may be too hot causing detonation. autolite 605's are perfect as are 103's for the procharged setup denso...

    True Duals

    just never seen them called PI heads. they flow only slightly better fully ported than the singleport. both great heads to make power. splitports better of course but not by much

    whats the 1/4 mile time for a stock 2002 V6 ( Man. ) Mustang ?

    i agree. any idiot who doesn't wear a helmet at the track regardless of 1/4 time is a retard. 17 sec trap is about 80 mph. i'd say that is fast enough to split your skull if a tire blows and throws you into the wall or the other car always wear your helmet at the track.

    Turbos/Superchargers

    obviously you are ignorant too. there are a few v6 stangs in the 10 sec range all with production blocks and cranks and ported factory heads. the ford 3.8 is a beast of a block being copied from the buick but without the buick downfalls. i have built both and can say the ford is better...
