    octane boosters

    need suggestions on a tried-n-true octane booster. I just got my computer reflashed and tuned from T&J and need to run 93 octane from now on due to the timing advance. Well, in my infinite wisdom, i filled the car's tank with 87 octane before sending the computer out for the reflash/tune and...

    Question about throttle body swap

    I've seen a few members here who have posted their "problems" doing a throttle body swap, specifically with the removal of two screws that I believe hold the TPS(?) in place. What was done to get the screws out or would it be easier to just replace this item to avoid stripping the screw heads...

    Rear end questions...

    Ok. As I read through alot of posts, I occasionally see references to "31 spline", axles being welded, comments about doing high RPM launches being bad unless the rear end is upgraded, and some other statements I can't quite recall. I need some clarification on what this is, why it's done...

    Clutch pedal freeplay question

    It might just be me, but it seems that there's quite a bit of 'freeplay' in my clutch pedal. If I just tap the pedal with the sole of my shoe (not pushing, but tapping) it seems kinda springy. I can't really describe what I'm talking about, but it seems I got too much play/slop in there...

    paint code question

    Don't know if I'm in the right forum to ask, but I saw a dark grey Lightning, 2002, I believe, and I love the shade. I'm contemplating painting my black stang this color if I can locate a paint code. Anyone here able to help a guy out? I'm not sure what Ford calls the color. I just know it's...

    Gear install kit question

    When changing the gears, is it necessary to use an installation kit? On some sites I see that there are up to 3 different install kits; each with a couple 'extra' parts. Any idea which would be needed or how to determine? I've got my gears and want to get them installed. I just don't want...

    Seat Covers question

    I'm considering seat covers for my leather seats...mostly because they look kinda boring (light grey) and are cold to sit on in the winter/hot in the summer. The leather is in decent...near new condition, and wondered if the use of seat covers would cause any damage? I'm partial to WetOkole...

    CDC Shaker (Mach 1) kit

    I'm interested in doing this simply because I'm about to get my hood repainted due to some pretty bad rock chips in the paint I picked up from a long trip over the weekend. This patricular kit retains the stock hood, but the hole for the shaker scoop is cut out and an 'applique' is placed on...

    It's TIME!!!! I'm Gettin' gears!!!

    Okay...since I'm a bit stuck for time, here, I decided to skip the search option for this question. I've got a 5-speed GT and want to change the gears. With that said, I'm thinking 3.73's because the car is driven daily, and I'm seriously planning to add a blower in the coming months. My...

    Got new tires and wheels installed...have a question, though

    I FINALLY got my new wheels and tires mounted and have a couple questions about the results. First off, the wheels are the chrome Wheel Replica bullitt's (17x9 and 17x10.5) and I had Goodyear Eagles GSD3's mounted (315/35's and 275/40's). I think they look TITS, myself...and pics are coming...

    tire spin in reverse question

    With a 5-speed, if a car is accelerated quickly while in reverse...enough to get the rear tires to spin (then hop), could there be any problems? I saw a guy tonight in his 02 GT do this. I'm not sure if it was intentional. He was in a parking lot and looked like he was trying to beat another...
