    1996 Gt P1sc Build Thread

    So I recently did a PI head swap on my 96GT, while doing it I did a complete rebuild and put 0.020 pistons in it. The motor was stout putting down 259 rwhp/275rwtq. The only problem was that the machine shop that bored and honed the cylinders, honed the block too large for the pistons and...

    Engine 96gt Procharger Build And Head Question.

    Need some help with my build for my 96 GT with a PI swap. Just picked up a Procharger P-1SC with a 10 psi pulley and want to get the car around 410 rwhp. Nothing too crazy since I don’t want to have to change the transmission and axles. First the car has about 10.85:1 compression, because of...

    Ticking Noise After PI Swap

    After finishing my PI swap the motor is making a really bad ticking noise on startup that continues til the car warms up really good and has been running for a while. Its a steady constant tick that will go away after some amount of time unless the motor is in a certain power band under load...

    Will not start using the key

    So I am working on getting my car back together and I have run into an issue that I can't figure out. The car will not start using the key, I have to manually start the car with a direct jump from the battery to the starter. When I do that the car starts fine, but when I turn the key nothing...

    Mach 460 Tweeters

    I just recently did a complete interior swap on my 96 GT. I went from the black and tan saddle and tan leather to all black cloth. The donor car was equipped with the mach 460 system so the door panels are slightly different. I recently picked up a set of the mach 460 tweeters to match the door...

    Does it require a tune?

    So I'm about to complete my build for my 96 GT. Full PI Swap, and rebuild including the block being bored 0.020 over. I also am putting on a 78 mm BBK 1780 throttle body. Seems like the engine will be breathing a WHOLE lot more than it used to. Will the computer require a tune in order to...

    T45 or T3650

    I have a 96 GT and need to rebuild my T45. Gears are grinding and I'm thinking it will be just as cheap to buy a new T3650 tranny. Just want to make sure this will still bolt directly up to a 96 GT. IS there anything I would need to swap out?

    What do improve while the motor is torn down?

    So as I said in a previous thread of mine, I got angry at the noise from the engine that I couldnt find so i just yanked the motor and tore it completely down. The plan is to freshen it up, it did after all have 185k miles on it, but while its down are there any improvements I can make to gain...

    PI Swap Unidentified Noise

    I just finished doing a full PI swap on my 96 GT and after putting the car back together, I am getting this unidentifiable noise coming from the motor. It's a very metallic noise but it is not a constant steady rhythmic noise. Its random, with different frequencies, it will slow and speed up...

    PI Head Swap Question

    I know there are a lot of threads out there telling about how to do a PI head swap. However, there is a piece of information that I can't seem to find. After doing a PI head swap is it necessary to get the car tuned? Its obviously a good idea, but will I be running the risk of tearing...

    I HATE the previous own of my car.

    This guy was a moron. Grade A idiot. One of these people that never should be allowed to own wrenches. He installed 3.73 gears on my 96 GT and when he did he never bothered to set the back lash and tore all the carrier bearings and the pinion bearing up. He put Ford Racing shorty headers on...

    Spark Plug Recommendations

    I am looking for a good spark plug recommendation for a mostly stock 96 GT. The car has Bosch Platinum 2's and I have heard that these cars have a tendency to misfire with platinum's. What do you guys normally run?

    High Mileage and Synthetic Blend

    Changed my oil today on my 96 GT with about 170k miles on it. And the local autoparts store had a sale on high mileage valvoline synthetic blend. The car has never seen synthetic as long as I have had it. After changing the oil, if the car idles for a while or starts up cold I get some oil...

    Good ET?

    Just got back from the track for the first time in my 96 GT. The car has very little mods (3.73 gears, bbk intake, ford racing shortys) and is running on 4 Nitto NT555s. Was wondering if this was a good ET for this car. I am somewhat disappointed by not being sub-15s but its a point to work...

    PI Intake Swap WITHOUT Aluminum Crossover

    I have a 96 GT that I'm preparing to swap a PI Intake from a 2000 GT onto. I see a lot of threads and information that says to drill the aluminum crossover for the second coolant temperature sensor. Since there is no aluminum crossover, where is the optimum/easiest place to drill and tap for...

    1996 GT Exhaut Manifold Leaks.

    My '96 GT currently has an exhaust manifold leak. It did not pass inspection because of this and am looking to change the exhaust manifold gaskets. Is there any way of getting the headers off without removing the engine from the car? I cannot see anyway to get to them and get them off without...
