    66 swerves BAD under heavy throttle!

    Took my 66 for a 15 minute drive. Longest ever so far. First off, the suspension had a complete do-over with stock stuff, front and rear very recently. they did NOT however replace the steering box. I know my box is shot, as I have nearly a half rotation in the steering wheel where the...

    LS or HEMI motor in an 05+...any conversion parts out there???

    Undoubtably the 05+ mustang is hot as hell. Sadly though, the Modular motors are incapable of making any real n/a horsepower. the 05+ mustangs have dropped dramatically in price, and can be had for nearly nothing for a v6 coupe. I'm interested in n/a power. Ford Modular motors cannot...

    back from LA auto show, my official review of Mustang/Camaro/Challenger

    Some may remember my last post blasting ford for their previous choice in the 4.6 for 2010. ANyhow, just got back from the LA autoshow and got to see all three cars in person. Initial assesment?? Ford has the corner on marketing hands down. WHile you COULD sit in a new challenger, there...

    Does Ford think we're Stupid? 315 horse? what the hell!

    I've seen the new body style, and I absolutely love it. I'm convinced it's going to be the longer lasting better selling body style over the camaro and challenger. The camaro interior is really aweful, and the challenger is way to heavy. Ford really had a hot thing going with that new body...

    speed density..won't idle below 1100 rpms...

    Hello all!!! Well, I was lucky enough to score an 86 ssp x chp mustang coupe, and I've been putting some wrenching time into it. It runs and drives like a dream, except it won't idle below 1100 rpms. Being that it's speed density, first thing I checked was vacuum. I did find some leaks...

    something different, I bought a ttop coupe..pics inside

    well, by now I've spammed this all over the mustang community, but i'm excited, and it'll be new for many of you. I JUST bought this 83 5.0 ttop coupe, stole it for $900 running with a rebuilt 5.0 with only 20 miles on it! Body is straighter than hell, interior just about mint. The bad? it's...

    Stock fuel pump limitations????

    So i've been posting and talking around, and have come to the conclusion that my stock 88 lph(did I get that right?) fuel pump may not be enough for my gt40p heads, ported intake and bolt ons. I've searched page after page, and found nothing on the limitations of the stock fuel pump. See I...

    surging at speed/power cutting in/out, ideas??

    Drove the vert around the block again. Got more of a chance to feel out the engine. When I give it gas, she starts pulling hard, then it starts to cut back on me, and loose power, then will start pulling hard again, kinda going in and out. it's not fast like a miss, it's a few seconds in each...

    Many of you have no idea who I am, a few know my long saga with my 97 explorer engine swap into my 86 vert. Well, third time around, I finally got the motivation to re-assemble it. Some may remember, last time I dropped an intake bolt down the intake, and wedged it into #2 cylinder's...

    1997 explorer engine drop in, runs like complete ass, help!!

    Figured I'd get more opinions. It's a 97 gt40p explorer engine into my 86 gt vert. It's SPEED DENSITY, not mass air. I'm running the explorer 19 pound injectors, explorer efi intake, 1.7 roller rockers (double and triple checked the adjustment, I'm good here and positive of that)...

    My explorer motor/gt40p buildup and drop into 86gt Vert PICS!!!

    figure I'd post this here too, why the hell not. btw, for those unaware, the explorer motors have the gt40p heads (97-01) and the intake flows nearly as well as a gt40 intake. (budget cobra motor!!!) Here's what I've been doing with my free time. Pulled the old tired engine out of my...

    ALL UPR triple hook quadrant owners, come inside, SERIOUS discussion!!

    What's up all?!! I wanted to start off by saying that I have a tremendous amount of experience in the area of clutch quadrants, and adjustments, etc. For some time I have been using and advocating the use of the upr triple hook quadrant. My bro has one on both of his fox mustangs...

    first ever undercarriage rear end/suspension shot of the 05 mustang

    so I crawled halfway under the car at the knotts show and nobody stopped me. Here's to all of you suspension guru's who have been curious how that 8.8 and the exhaust all fit into place, enjoy!! I lightened them up so they could be seen easier. Rest of car was too low to get under.
