Would be very interested to receive any input as to what year mustangs received revisions to certain issues that were fairly common. Like for instance, from what I have gathered, the 2004 (and possibly 2003??) mustangs received additional threads in the cylinder heads for the blowout problem. And anything after 2000 received a revision for the intake manifold cracking issue. I also believe that Ford revised the timing chain tensioner after 2002. I would really appreciate hearing of any other issue related revisions/upgrades and their specific years implemented if anyone knows. Thanks.

The swap from the T45 and 10.5" clutch to the T3650 and 11" clutch in '01 was a big one also.

There is some good info at Home | National Highway Traffic Safety Administration(NHTSA) | U.S. Department of Transportation if you take the time to dig it out of that hard to navigate site...

Some 01's still had the plastic intake manifold, someone pointed out that I had it on my car in some pics I posted and its an 01, I think the switch happened midyear in the 01's.
