    Explain: What is bottoming out exactly?

    I've been trying to figure this out for a while. Is bottoming out (1) when something on the bottom of your car (ie. headers, K-member, gas tank, etc) hits the road, (2) when your tires hit your wheel wells or fenders, or is it (3) both?

    Will bolt-on D/S Loop cause floorpan rust?

    I purchased a bolt-on D/S Loop & read the instructions & it made me wonder whether or not it would increase the chance of the floorpan rusting one day down the road. Does anyone have thoughts on this? Or can anyone describe actual installation a bit? Thanks in advance.

    The only thing I can really say is that the car is wicked now. I can go sideways in 3rd @ about 70 if I want to. But who wants to do that? :rlaugh:

    Trade a Mach for an '02 Roush 360R?

    Am I a fool for even contemplating doing this? I'm just looking for opinions. I haven't decided to do this yet. Now I know that the Roush 360R has 360HP & 375TQ, supercharged 2V. The Mach I have is an '04 w/ 310HP & 335TQ stock, N/A 4V. I haven't had it on the dyno since the mods. Should I...

    LT Headers & O/R X-pipe worth @ least .38 sec & 2.05MPH

    I say that because I finally had them all installed last Sunday. I ran a best of 13.94 @ 103.11 w/ .9066 reaction & 2.21 60ft the Friday prior to the install. After install, this past Friday I ran a best of 13.56 @ 105.16 w/ .948 reaction & 2.24 60ft. I say those mods are worth @ least that much...

    Sub-frames on a Mach!?

    I was looking under the bottom of my car the other day & noticed sub-frame connectors, the most basic kind but sub-frames nonetheless. Do all Machs come w/ the connectors? I bought it brand new w/ only 39 miles, 10 were mine from the test drive.
