    2011 Connecting Rods

    Did anyone else read in 5.0 magazine where the Ford Engineers told the author of the article that the 5.0 wouldn't be able to handle forced induction due to the connecting rods? It said that basically they were strong enough to handle the power it had, but any sort of major increase and they...

    Watts Link or Rear Sway/UCA?

    I am going to have a little bit of money after x-mas to play around with and I would really like to tighten up the rear end of my car. You can see my current mods in my sig and I love what the koni's in the rear have done in terms of tightness, but I still feel like it jerks away under hard...

    While doing research into power adders

    I came across this guy on ebay: link I wouldn't buy any of these kinds of things unless I heard from many people more knowledgeable than I about them being ok, but what is their deal? What are they missing and how can they be made so cheaply when compared to the other big kits?

    Hey all, I purchased a Shelby grille like is on the Shelby GT's and I didn't receive any instructions with it. I looked online and I feel comfortable getting the old grille out, but the new one came with four j shaped bolts and I was just unsure of how and where these hook in. If anyone has...

    Shorty Antenna, which adapter?

    I bought one of the shorty antennas off of ebay and it came with three different size screws that are supposed to "fit any model" car even though Mustang was listed. I looked at the threads of the current antenna piece and compared and none of them seem to be the same. One of the three seems...

    Front sway bar stabalizer bar question

    I just installed my new GT500 Upper Strut Mounts today since my regular ones busted when I lowered my car. For some reason when I tried to re-install the stabilizer bar that connects the sway bar to the strut, I couldn't put it in the same hole as it was originally. I noticed that there are...

    Snapped off screw while mounting shorty antenna

    So as the title says, I was installing a shorty antenna and while screwing the thing in, the screw snapped off. it was just about in all the way too. So my dilemma is how do I get it out or resolve this issue? I have that drab-it drill system that drills into broken screws to pull them out...

    4.10 gears too much for all season tires?

    As the title says, I have a chance to get the new FRPP 4.10N gears (Improved stronger process and supposedly no whine) for $155, but I am unsure if I should as my mustang is a daily driver with all-season tires. I would like to go to the track every once in a while, but I was unsure if the...

    Hard wiring radar detector questions

    I recently purchased a valentine V1 and was going to hard wire it into the car so I don't have to use the cigarette adapter. My few questions: 1. How do I remove the overhead light fixture? I easily pulled back the paneling on the passenger side by removing the visor screws. I don't need...

    Adjustable vs. non-adjustable

    I have my vogtland springs on their way and they are a mild 1.2" drop. I was wanting to get new LCA's as well, but I am unsure if I will need the adjustable ones or not. I am going with the J&M LCAs so the adjustables are a decent amount more. Since i am installing the springs, will I need...

    LCA's or springs?

    I have the option to buy some Vogtland lowering springs (1.2" F&R) for around $120 or I could buy J&M LCA's for around the same price. Which one would I notice more of a benefit from? I have searched and read that with the springs I may have to purchase a adjustable panhard and probably get it...

    Need replacement C/S bumper

    Well I was pulling into my parking lot at work today and slid about 20 ft into frozen piles of snow (from the snow plow, then it rained on them and they froze). The car as a whole is fine, but the lower grill is all busted and needs to be replaced. I went to OEM Parts & OEM Wheels - Original...

    My little project

    I've been working on this one for the last couple of months and I am just about finished. It is a car computer that I have made and I was about to put it in this weekend and I cracked the touchscreen (the actual touch sensor part, not the screen, so it is relatively cheap to replace). I should...

    C&L Street Install Instructions

    Anybody have a copy? I looked on their site and couldn't find any. I bought the part used so I did get the instructions with it. It seems like there isn't much to it, but I just want to make sure that I don't miss anything. I looked at TacoBill's thread on the other forum, but his is for a...

    Help needed in removing manifold to h-pipe bolts

    Any tips? I have a tried socket wrenches and wrenches with WD-40 and have only managed to get 1 off in about an hour and a half. Also, two of them seem to be extremely hard to get to, the one I could probably get to if I removed the battery, but what about the one on the driver's side? Any...

    Installing O/R H-pipe without tune

    Will it hurt anything? Or just throw the engine errors? The pipe is here, but the tuner won't be here til Thursday or Friday and I am afraid I won't have the free time to install it for a while after this weekend. I saw someone in the gas mileage thread say they did this and it sparked my...

    Metal Rattling Sound

    I get a weird sound, that I have happened to notice the past few work days when I leave work in the evenings (probably because I have my windows down), that my car makes a funny "metal rattling in a can" noise when it hits 2000 rpm. I never noticed anything of the sort before. It will only...
