    Overheating problem

    I have a 97 GT. I've always had problems overheating really since I've had it. Usually it was the water pump. My intake manifold started leaking cause the plastic corroded and that caused it to overheat. I replaced that with the manifold with the aluminum crossover and that stopped that problem...

    4.6L 2V intake manifold questions

    Hey, I've had the common problem of the plastic manifold corroding and not sealing anymore. I've searched around and will do the aluminum crossover. I've seen a thread about pi and npi manifolds. What exactly are they, or what is the difference, and whats better? Is there a good place I can get...

    302 swap?

    Hey, just wondering what might be involved, how easy it would be to swap in a 5.0L HO? Would I need to swap trannies? Wiring harness? It should fit into the existing motor mounts right? This will be a project motor. I will probably rebore it out to a 347 while I'm at it. Supercharger, turbo...

    Good aftermarket fan?

    Hey, does anyone know of someone who makes a good aftermarket electric fan for the 4.6L? I've had no luck in finding anyone. If so, would it be a direct plug in and go type of thing? Thanks

    Fan motor question

    Hey, I have a '97 GT. My fan motor seized the other day, so the engine overheats very fast. Luckily I don't have to drive it. I was just wondering if there is a good motor to get for a replacement. I know Napa sells fan motors, would one of those work?

    Clutch problems?

    Hey, I noticed last weekend, there was a loud screeching coming from the engine right when I started it up. I only happens when the clutch pedal is in. After about 5 mins it goes away, but not all the way, you can sort of hear it all the time, but very quiet. I had to drive about 100 miles back...

    Calling all 96-98 owners

    Hey, I just have a quick question. I'm selling off my euro taillights to someone off eBay. We are going to swap his factories with mine. How many bulbs do the factory taillights have? Mine have 3 for the brakes, and one for reverse. I just want to know if we'll have to swap bulbs/wiring with the...

    Carrier question

    Hey, I'm getting my 3.73 gears installed tomorrow. We'll find out tomorrow if I'll need a carrier becuase of abuse from the previous owner. I have a chance to get a used Auburn limited slip to go along with it. They said it was working fine when they pulled it to build up a race car. It's only...

    Any experience with Apten chips?

    Hey, I got one for my Explorer a couple years ago and loved it. I was wondering if people thought the ones for the Mustangs were also good. The owner is a great guy. He customizes Superchips, I believe, just for Fords. www.apten-us.com

    Factory alarm question

    Hey, I bought my Stang used, but did not have the factory remote along with the keys. The previous owner put this POS aftermarket alarm in, so I don't use it all that much. Well today I was checking fluids, when I closed the hood, I then opened the drivers door (it was unlocked) and the factory...

    Weird Question

    Ok, here it goes. I purchased a 97 GT last week. It was a repo from the bank, so I can't contact the previous owner. I know he's done a lot work to it, but since I don't know too much about engines, I can't say as to what he did to it. My friend has a 95 z28 Camaro with the 350, I'm guessing...

It's a '97 Boss Mustang. 4.6L 5 speed, 116,000 miles, but I don't know if the previous owner did any other modifications (he had NOS system installed but took someof it). Was that a good year? Is...
