    Silverstar Ultra bulbs

    The problem with Silverstars is that they don't last very long. You'll be lucky to get a year out of them.

    GT-500 = Boat

    Thanks for the reality check Ricks. I was going to respond to Daggar's post yesterday but didn't have the energy. And just to be clear about it, I am a Mustang owner, have participated here for several years and I have ZERO interest in owning any Fox Mustang including a new in the wrapper 0...

    Hood Scoop Problem

    Are you joking? If you are serious, here's your answer: Most hood scoops are NOT functional. That is, they are for show, not go. Opening it up would NOT do anything as it's not tied into the engine air intake. Even if it was, the middle of the hood not the proper place for an air intake...

    What you like see in next Mach1 in s197 Mustang

    Azure Blue is not the same as the original Grabber Blue. Current Grabber Orange is also not the same as the original from the 60s/70s. Electric Green from the 99-01 was one of the most hidious colors ever sprayed on a Mustang. I have not heard that it's returning.

    Waiting period for first wax?

    Often a truth is said in jest.

    What you like see in next Mach1 in s197 Mustang

    Hate to burst your bubble, but here's a dose of reality. No way on "all Grabber colors". Due to production costs you'll be lucky to see 2 unique colors for any SE, with 1 unique color more like it. No way on "two V8s the Boss 5.0 V8 & 5.4V8" same issue. This is 2006, not 1969. The costs...

    GT-500 = Boat

    There is no such thing as "an instant classic" The GT-500 is the most over hyped vehicle since the automobile was invented. The 1968 GT-500KR is a collectable because only 1,251 were made. There will be about 28,000 2007-2009 GT-500s made. 28,000 of anything = NOT collectable & NOT...

    Any Predictions For GT500 price dropping?

    Just hang in their until the new Huricane V8 comes out. Then you'll be able to buy a used GT-500 for peanuts when all those "collectors" dump their GT-500s so they can buy new 500+ HP normally aspirated 6.2L Boss Mustangs.

    Two Things.

    Hmm, intesting thought, since over the Mustang's 38 year history, the majority of Mustangs have 6 cyl engines.

    2005 Mustang GT Stroker Kit 302

    Not so fast Jennifer. As has been discussed ad nauseam here on StangNet and virtually every other Ford / Mustang web site, the Mod motor has small bore spacing and cannot be bored out more than a couple mm. The is the whole reason de tre for the new Hurricane / Boss V8.

    If not a mustang then what?

    You're putting us on arn't you?:shrug: Ever take a 500 mile trip in a 1969 Mach 1 428 Drag Pack? If you have you'll never take one again. Your vehicles are unliveable as daily drivers. Any pickup truck built today is more comfortable and handles better than a 55 Chevy. Your list of...

    Loss in hp / torque from mufflers?

    Yes, I'm saying the #s below ~3000 RPM do not look believable. eg. @ 2100 RPM Flowmaster = 205 lb ft Magnaflow = 275 lb ft Difference = 70 lb ft. It is impossible that one mufflers can have 70 lb ft more TQ at that RPM. Therefore something is flawed with the test (at low RPMs). Again...

    Gas guage innacurate?????

    See, I was correct @ 0 MTE you had a gallon left. How many gallons did you put in when you filled it up (before and after running out of gas)? Given all the problems owners are having with slow filling tanks I wonder how many gallons can really be put in the "16 gallon" tank.

    Okay, how do I stop my hood from flying off?

    Last time I was on that part of I95 I was doing 85 MPH in the right lane and nearly got run off the road because I was going too slow. :eek:

    Gas guage innacurate?????

    The miles to empty and average MPG are calculated on the last 1000 miles that you drove. If you alwasy have the same driving habits then the computer will give an accurate estimate of how many miles on a tank you'll get. But if you requently change your driving habits / style say from a long...

    Loss in hp / torque from mufflers?

    The laws of physics say that it is absolutely impossible to have an 80 lb-ft TQ variation from one muffler to another @ 2100 RPM I would suggest that this test is completely flawed below 2500 RPM (measurement error, differences in how the car was run through the RPM range on one test to the...
