    I Got Bored Again...

    Since I cant install my next group of mods I was feeling bored with too much time on my hands so I decided to strip the paint off my 10lb bottle. I sanded it down using various grits of paper, up to 1500, and then sprayed it with a Duplicolor shaker and then cleared to match my exterior's...

    My Second Trip to the Track

    The temperatures were great for racing today at about 82* with humidity @ 95% so I already knew I was going to run better than the 95* I ran in last time. I dropped my tire pressure to 28psi and held the brakes till just before the breaking point at 2200. I cut a .519 reaction time but I...

    A new clunk in my front end...

    Okay, so I just replaced my broken strut (ripped my end link mounting bracket off) and shortly after Im now hearing an odd clunk noise when the suspension reacts to potholes, uneven roads and basically anything that is not smooth at speeds less than 40 or so. This is heard at both sides but it...

    Has anyone actually move the battery to the trunk yet? I am curious as to how the cables were wired/secured under the hood. I was also wondering if anybody knew of any junction blocks that could work to tie the extention cables in with the stockers to keep a clean look behind that wheel well...

    Jet Throttle Body Spacer Installed

    The install was easy but the clearance with the JLT pipe and power steering reservoir was about slim to none. I have already noticed less throttle lag throughout the RPM so my $100 was well worth it for at least that. I'll eventually get back to the dyno to test that and some other parts...

    Something Broke, Lets Play Name That Part!

    Well, I noticed a bit of trouble in the front end as I began my 15 mile trip home after finishing a movie at a local theatre, at highway speeds mind you. It eventually grew into a rough ride and sounded as if something was being dragged but only so when I was steering or coming out of a turn...

    New Mustang GT Fender Badge

    I just about have a finished prototype of a "281" fender emblem that would replace the stock "GT" on both fenders. I was originally doing this for my car as a one off bit but Im begining to see that the graphic design may be accepted by the mainstream. Once im done with the final hand sanding...

    Underhood Mat

    This mat is here for what exactly? Is it just mounted under the hood to reduce engine noise output or does it absorb heat? Does anybody know exactly? If it is just for sound absorbtion Im pulling this off when I get the chance. -Dan

    I am begining to consider switching these exhaust manifolds out for a pair of (California) legal shorty headers. I know Ford Racing Performance Parts and JBA each have their own variants available but are there any others out there? Also, are there any performance comparisons between the...
