    Unusual "what do you think of these mods" thread

    Our Mustang just went from a weekend only car to an every day car because we sold an old car my wife was driving back and forth to work. She will now be driving the Mustang every day. The issue is that once the car is warmed up when you start the car the idle will surge up and down and the...

    Help diagnosing A/C issue

    I've tried searching on A/C* and "air* conditioning" and haven't had any luck. I'm trying to track down an issue with an intermitent A/C issue. When the knob is set to both normal and high A/C it only works maybe 25% of the time. When it does work it blows very cold air, so I don't think...

    03 Cobra->95 GT front spring swap question

    After doing my engine work and swapping for aluminum heads, removing smog junk, removing STB the front of the car now sits about a 1/2" higher than it used to. The stock ride height didn't bother me but the way it sits now (higher in the front) does. The bigger problem is that because the car...

    Auto guys - Which mod is better: gears or a torque convertor?

    I'm looking for my next mod and it's going to be one of these two but I don't know which one will work best for my situation. The car is an auto vert, not a daily driver, but when my wife drives it (about half the time it gets driven) it needs to behave and not feel loose/weird. Here are my...

    Do GT40P heads cause a check engine light?

    SO I've been searching this site and "the other" site for the past 1.5-2 hours (slow day at work, heh) and am only finding more questions than answers. I can't search for 'CEL' because it's too short a word, so hopefully me spelling out check engine will help someone out later when they go to...

    Problem with used Cobra intake. Need advice

    So I bought a used 94 Cobra intake off a guy on The Corral and have a slight issue with it. No, there's nothing broken on it and I don't anticipate any issues installing it on the car. The issue is that when he shipped it to me he packed it in styrofoam packing peanuts and during the shipping...

    Stock H-pipe question

    So I've been searching and searching for a used high-flow catted H-pipe to buy and cannot find a single one for sale anywhere. I'm starting to think that my search will never find anything useful so I'm trying to come up with other ideas. Buying a new $400 H-pipe isn't an option right now and...

    AODE + gear change = what problems?

    I'm considering doing a gear swap and have some questions about driveability afterwards. I've tried searching to get impressions but I don't think anyone has addressed this specific question. Aside from having to do a speedcal to get the gauge to read properly does the trans still shift like...

    What to check before long distance drive?

    Hello everyone. A little about me since I'm new and will likely be posting here a lot in the future. I've been into performance cars since I got my license 14 years ago. I've had 3 Mustangs, a 73 351C convertible, a 95 GT 5sp coupe, and a 03 Cobra coupe in that order (with a 01 Trans Am...
