How To Wake Up An Old Gt?

[ChrisF]

I just got my 4.10 gears, install kit (with royal purple gear oil), and tuner from AM for just over $500. I am getting them installed and everything rebuilt at Piedmont Custom Motorsports in Raleigh for $325. You can add the trak lok rebuild for another $100.

Would your reccomend piedmont custom motorsports? I might need a shop to do my control arm bushings

I have never had any work done by them because I have always done my own. However, I have talked to them at shows and on the phone and they seem like really cool guys. I haven't heard anything bad about them and I believe tank_567 has a brother who works there and has done a bunch of work on his ride. (correct me if I'm wrong tank)

I am gonna give them a shot with my gears though.

BTW what part of NC are you in?

Eric G. at PCM tuned my car and did an excellent job. Without mentioning other shops' names or bashing them, I'll say that Eric is absolutely the best Mustang tuner in the area. They are a great group of guys that I would absolutely recommend. (And yes, tank's brother works there.)

Also, for any of you Raleigh guys, there is a dyno day up there Saturday, October 27th. I've been to every one of them so far, and they haven't disappointed in the entertainment area......

That DOES look entertaining indeed!

 

[ChrisF]

That looks awesome, y'all might see me there!

Gears are going to be my first true performance mod. But they come after tune up, shifter, suspension bushings, and wheels and tires... so not anytime soon. Especially on my very small income. And if it makes that small of a differnce ill definately go with 4.10. And ill look into what's involved in doing the whole rebuild

Owned my 'Stang since new. When my intake cracked, I went ahead and had my fuel injectors tested/cleaned. Recently, I had a COP go haywire, so I replaced them all. Car runs very smoothly. I've learned that the COPs typically won't "throw a code" until they are toast, but that doesn't mean they are working like new.

I'm a fanatic when it comes to brakes and steering , but haven't had to replace anything other than rotors/pads. This is after 123,000 miles. Clutch may need attention in a few more miles, though.
