    Timing chain slack and clearance question

    I have some slack in my brand new Crane Cams timing chain that I feel is too much. I have ALL brand new parts and the simple solution would be just to order a FRPP timing chain because most people have good luck with those, but I want to know if the simple solution would help the slack problem...

    Crankshaft spin effort during build

    Just curious, how easy should the crank spin by hand when the maincaps are torqued down snug? Mine spins pretty easily without a bolt in the crank and the plastigage was within spec. when I checked all the bearings for clearance.

    How many cars with Paint code EL were made in 1992?

    I was just curious, how can I find out how many cars were produced in 1992 that were painted Wild Strawberry Metallic Clearcoat (EL)? Is there a reference site I could use? I did a search on Google but no luck on there. Maybe one of you guys will know. Thanks, Justin

    Brakes are done!!! (PICS)

    Well the brake conversion is finally done. After a long weekend of wrenching, I now have a Mustang that stops and stops well...finally. I am pretty tired and sore (not to sound like a pu$$y) so I will keep this short and let the pictures do most of the talking. 13" rotors up front with...

    FRPP front control arms
