    4.6 versus 5.0

    Not sure what forum to post this in, but I thought I'd try here. I MAY have an opportunity to pick up a 94 GT convertible with extremely low miles for under $4K, I currently own a 98 GT, assuming all else is equal would the 94 GT with low miles and a 5.0 be a better choice than my 98 with the...

    Another Gear Question

    Sorry to beat a dead subject...but...I have a 98 GT automatic with the four-speed transmission 4R70W. I want to put 4.10 gears in it, but I've been told if I do that with the transmission I have that I'll hit the rev limiter before I can even shift out of first gear, with the only solution...

    Power Loss with CAI

    Ok, here's the deal. My car (98 GT) has been running as less than my normal standard lately, kind of sluggish without the "pop" I've come to expect. My mechanic can't find anything wrong. In trying to reconstruct the timing of when the issue started, it seems to go back to a weekend in which...

    Diablosport Predator

    I own a 98 Mustang GT with minimal mods and have a Predator tuner, I run Exxon 91 octane fuel. The Predator tool comes with tunes for 93 octane (written for a minimum 91 octane) and 87 octane. When I run the 93 octane tune (even adjusting the spark retard) it runs terrible, flat, no...

    CAI and Diablosport Predator Tuner

    I have a 98 Mustang GT, automatic, and just installed a BBK CAI. I am running the "canned" performance tune from a Diablosport u7146 tuner. Just took the car out after the CAI, and it feels like it's running "flat", and a couple of times when shifting into reverse or drive it felt like it was...

    Will this size tire, 235/55/ZR17 fit a 1998 Mustang GT Convertible? Wheels are 17 X 8. The company I'm considering buying them from suggested a 1/4 spacer for the rear, any ideas, recommendations? Thanks

    Coolant Leak

    I have a 98 GT Convertible and for the last couple of weeks I"ve noticed a coolant leak. It doesn't leak all the time, and appears to only leak after I've turned the engine off. It dumps what looks like 1/2 cup of coolant then stops, the car never heats up, and it only leaks once in a while...

    Interior Color

    My 98 GT Convertible is red with tan interior. The door panels are solid "saddle". I 've seen a two tone, black and saddle version which I like much better than mine. I've seen a few pairs of panels on ebay, but have missed out on them. I remember someone posting that it was possible to...

    Paint Question

    Ok, here goes. I recently purchased a 98 GT convertible, color code E9, laser red. It was a repo, so I got it pretty cheap. It was really dirty every time I looked at it, so I didn't notice until I got it home and washed/waxed it that the paint on the hood and left fender isn't quite right...
