    Think this is U-Joints?

    I was cruisin pretty good down a back road yesterday, and all of a sudden I heard a small bang noise and my manual transmission fell out of gear. I slowed to a stop right away because there was a grinding noise coming from what I think to be behind the tranny. I figured something like this...

    Cut Rubber Piece off of Clutch Cable?

    I made the mistake of letting a shop do my clutch cable for me, and wouldn't you just know they f'ed it up. I think the issue is that they didn't cut off the rubber part up against my UPR firewall adjustor. I sorta remember cutting that off last time I did this? Can anyone confirm this for me...

    Enough Fuel Supply for S-Trim?

    With using the T-rex that comes with the supercharger, and a Walbro 255LPH in tank fuel pump Part #GSS307, will I have any problems? I picked up the wrong fuel pump by accident. I guess the one for boosted applications is Walbro #GSS340. Here is my setup: 302 Block GT40 Irons Trickflow...

    Head Studs for gt40 irons?

    What is the ARP Part# for what I need? It's a 302 block they're going on, and the gt40's are irons from a 1994 lightning. I want some studs. And what style do I use? I was looking in their catalogue and came up with this. The first 4 options are on page 38 of the catalogue. Page 38 154-4005...

    Heater core hoses kinked

    I just installed a new heater core, along with new hoses. When I was putting them on I wasn't thinking about which way they should be routed, or if it mattered. I thought that the pressure in the system would be enough to push the fluid through the hoses, but I guess not. I only get cold air in...

    Ignition Setup Questions

    I have a 302 mexican block that I'm building up right now (gt40 heads, trickflow street heat intake). The plan is to have it a twin turbo charged daily driven street car around 425-450RWHP. The odd time that I would make it to the track I might shoot for a number over 500RWHP on race gas. Right...

    Heater Core Question (I think?)

    For the past couple of weeks there has been a tiny bit of smoke coming out of my vents. Nobody driving in my car has noticed it except for me because it is just a very small constant flow. It mostly only happens when I open my window and the air starts sucking it out. Then to test to see if it's...

    Buying Engine Block (chip in block though?)

    I'm thinking about buying a mexican block off this guy. It's been magnafluxed and honed by a performance shop around here, no cracks. The only thing that he says is wrong is "It has a small chip off the back of the block where the dowl is for the bellhousing guide". Would this create any...

    Hesitation

    Hesitation / Car Jerking About 3 weeks ago my car started to hesitate when i slam down the pedal. Usually it happens between 1400-2000 rpm's... it will continue to hesitate (violently no less) until i let go of the gas and shift gears. I thought maybe the fuel system needed to be cleaned, so I...

    Signal Flasher! BAH!

    Okay so I just finished putting in my new ignition switch, because I thought that my signal lights weren't working because of it (I was wrong). The turning signals worked fine, then stopped working for a few days, then started working again, and now have stopped working completely. Does that...

    Ignition Switch Recall

    I called ford the other day trying to get them to do the ignition switch recall for me, but she said it's already been done to my car or isn't available for it. Now I guess I have to do it myself. I don't want to put the same piece of crap in it's place though, I want the part that ford used in...

    Need help quick! Rear Lower Control Arm.

    I'm in the middle of switching my springs, so I decided to do the lower control arms at the same time. The uppers looked tough to get too, but I figured I wouldn't have a problem with the lowers... well I am! I am having problems getting the bolt out of the lower control arm to frame...

    New Clutch Quadrant Making Noise

    I had the UPR Triple Pick-Up Quadrant and Firewall Adjuster with Jam Nut, part #3004-T installed in my daily driver about 8 months ago with my spec stage 2 clutch. I've put on around ~13,000 km's since then with no problems. Yesterday, though, the quadrant started making a noise every time I...

    What Should I Do While Doing Suspension?

    I have a good amount of parts for redoing both my front and rear suspension right now. All I wanted to do was get some suggestions on maybe some little things that could be done at the same time while I'm in there. For example, I purchased spring isolators for both the front and back for the new...

    Swap a 302 into an Escort?

    When my current 302 needs to be rebuilt (hopefully not for awhile), I want to either sell it or transplant it into something small/lightweight. I plan on putting a r302 or dart block into the mustang, so don't worry about that part :) I really like the look of old (around '86) Ford Escort...

    Oil Drain Plug Thread Size

    I went down to Part Source and the guy told me he has two different sized drain plugs for my year mustang. What's the deal with this? I can't remember the two different sizes, but I have a 1990 LX 5.0. I need 2 new drain plugs cause mine are getting old. What size do I need for both? He told...

    Fiberglassing on a Budget, Please Help.

    I've tried to read as much as I can about fiberglassing in the past couple of weeks, but I'm still a little scared to go ahead and start my project. I'm on a very tight budget, as I am trying to save all the money I can for my engine and suspension right now. Just for the record, I'm trying to...
