    TKX magnetic VSS Calibration

    I swapped to a TKX this last week on my 96 Cobra and I tried plugging directly into the magnetic pickup VSS that comes on the transmission since it was the same connector. I didn't think it'd be accurate but it's reading like 120mph at 35 actual so is there a way to calibrate off the magnetic...

    Digital Tuning Anderson PMS startup fuel / AFR

    Put about 80 miles on the blown stroker so far and actually with everything zero'd out in the Anderson PMS I'm very happy with the AFR so far except for cold start-up. It is about 15.5:1 or so, maybe a bit more at times during the warm-up cycle. It smells rich and fires right up during this...

    347 Starter squeal

    Man I am drawing a blank here. I have an 88 GT with a brand new 347 with a Ford Motorsport 28oz flywheel PN FMS-M-6375-A302B. I had the stock starter in there at first but it made this terrible squeal when starting. I pulled the starter and the flywheel looks fine but there was a bit of...

    Motor Swap, You Decide!

    Ok StangNet... It's been a while since I've been very active on this forum, however, I feel that this is the most reasonable place to pose this question. I purchased a gem of a Mustang last winter and at the same time I found some great deals on some parts. First, this car is a 1988 Mustang GT...

    Restored my third brake light tonight!

    So I bought a 3M kit and restored my third brake light on my 04 Anniversary Edition GT and WOW, I'm so glad I didn't drop $260 on the Ford replacement the other day. I was also looking at some cheap replacements, and I did buy one but it came with the corner broken off so I'm returning it for a...

    Leaking intake manifold gaskets

    So I bought a cheap 99 mustang V6 and the guy thought it had a blown head gasket so he had purchased a whole head set from rockauto.com, cost him like $500 or something crazy and he got new head bolts also. So I pulled it apart yesterday and found the two intake runners on the lower intake...

    Blew my steering rack!

    Woah guys, I was pulling out of my driveway today and as soon as I went full left wheel, the steering wheel bounced back and I heard a "SNAP", looked under the car and power steering fluid was pouring out of the rack! Upon closer inspection, it looks as though the steering rack exploded out the...

    96 Cobra FLUNKED Dyno!

    So I ran my 96 Cobra on the dyno today, ran 274 hp, 280 ft/lb tq! I can't believe it was so low, another guy in my club ran a stock 97 Cobra with exhaust only and ran 294 hp / 300 ft/lb tq. I'm trying to figure out what was wrong, it had a really flat spot at about 4k-5k, then ramped up again...

    T56 Question, 96 Cobra

    Hey guys, I just bought this 96 Cobra which has some really nice upgrades on it already, mainly what I'm concerned about is a vibrating clutch pedal. I figured it was the throw-out bearing so I went in to replace it. After i got the transmission out, it's a T56 by the way, I found that the...
