    Mustangs Plus....

    I am a creature of habit, therefore, you find a particular place you like, and continue to do business with them they get to know you and you them. Makes for a more comfortable situation. That being said Mustang Depot has been my primary supplier for most all of my stuff. The girls there are...

    Rear End Dilemma

    Max, To build my current 8" as described $1200 I haven't looked into the 9" yet, but I figure around $1500??? Those that have recently built a 9" care to chime in. And if you got all the parts at cost becasue your Uncles Brother in-law's nephew knows a guy at the parts store, that...

    Rear End Dilemma

    I keep going back and forth between the 8" and 9". If I go 8" it would be: 8" with 67 center section, Auburn Pro Limited Slip, 3:55 gears. If I go 9" it would be 9" with Auburn Pro Limited Slip, 3:55 gears. I'm around 300-325hp, but waiver as to what I want to do because of the different...

    TCP Rack & Pinion

    Chris, Your going to love it! I heard the manual is a little harder to turn the wheel, but it is just as responsive. I went from 3/4" play in the wheel to absolutly zero "slop". Of all the mods I've done to the car, this single one made the most noticeable difference. Let me know what...

    How much difference do gears REALLY make?

    I haven't done the 9" yet, but that's what I'm leaning towards. I've read so much about the 8" breaking that I don't want to chance it. I'm making pretty good power with the mods below. To mod my 8" to the way I want it is $1,200 including labor, a little more will get me a 9" set up and no...

    TCP Rack & Pinion

    I thought about the same thing. They have a forum on the TCP web site, and of the few units that had leaky seals, TCP sent replacements. Seems not everyone has had a bad experince with them. As for the pump, it is made by KRC, so I would deal with them direct. I will say that the quality is...

    AFR heads .. worth the wait?

    Where the heck did you order them from? I went to their web site and pulled up their vendor list and started calling. Found a set with All Mustang Performance in Arizona, had them in 3 days! I got the 165 non-emissions. They look good. I've never ran any other aftermarket alum. heads, so I...

    How much difference do gears REALLY make?

    I would say my car is on the highway less than half the time, so would 3:55 be a better choice. I'll be running through a TCI Street Fighter C-4 after this week.

    TCP Rack & Pinion

    First off let me say TCP is the worst company I have ever dealt with. Customer Service is actually Customer Dis-service. But...This rack & pinion unit is insane. This car drives so different. The unit is a work of art in itself. Lots of blue and red anodizing and raw aluminum. I got it...

    How much difference do gears REALLY make?

    Ok, after really getting a chance to get the car out and drive this weekend I did realize.....I LOVE THIS CAR!!! The new engine mods make this 289 a beast. But...it doesn't have the kick in the pants I was hoping for. So, when I do the rear and put in the 3.25 gear set, am I going to get that...

    Greeeat...time for a tranny!

    Well, after finally getting the engine mods I've always wanted, see sig, and spending way too much money in the process my tired old C-4 deceided to kick the bucket. Reverse is GONE and D is real close to being non-existant. So, still reeling from the previous expenditures, I ordered yesterday...

    The last time I ask for opinions, sorry but I need to:

    Pak, The one thing I've come to realize is that these cars are NEVER finished. There's always something else we want to do to them no matter how many ooh's and ahh's they may get. My point, even if you were to keep the car and do to it what you wanted, you probably would never feel as...

    What to do with Engine Bay?

    ACF, I say the satin if your engine is sporting all the shiney stuff. I think it would accentuate the engine more if you had the black there to contrast the bay. If you make your inner fender as shiney as the engine, you'll end up with a head ache when you try to look under the hood, not to...

    Progress photos, dailup users beware

    That engine compartment is SICK! What kind of paint did you use on your inner fender wells? That is the exact shade I want to paint mine. VERY NICE!

    Different 8" Question

    Thanks for the reply's. It's nice to hear a few positives after all the negative attention the 8" always gets. I figured there were some 8" success stories, but again, I wanted to hear them considering my trip to the drive line shop on Friday. Should be nice when their finished, 68 center...

    Different 8" Question

    OK, I understand that an 8" is limited to about 300 h.p., but is there any one out there running an 8" for street driving ONLY!, with an occasional "burn out", not broken their 8"? I hear all the broken 8" stories, but none of the not broken 8" stories. I ask because I'm getting an Auburn...

    What brand of Oil Filter do you use?

    I always use K&N and the magnetic drain plug. They cost a little more, but it's cheap insurance.

    just won 18K playing blackjack, what would you spend it on?

    The first thing I would do is stash half for uncle sam, then with the other 9k I'd do the suspension mods.
