    Who has a centerforce dual friction clutch?

    Well probably about 2 months ago I bought a new clutch kit. It was a fidanza 3.2, and realized it might be way too much for my car. It grabs nice, but it chatters like crazy. There is no easy start with it. You have to at least rev to 2K for it not to feel like it is stalling out. Anyways, I was...

    Ok, more problems for the stang, and i need some help. That first problem is kind of weird. It happens off and on, and right now it has been going on for nearly a week. We all know what happens when you have the door open, put the keys in the ignition, but dont turn the key. You can hear a ding...

    How difficult is it to do this job?

    Hey fellow stang lovers, I have a question for you guys. I was wondering how difficult it is to drop the transmission and examine it a little. I am not the best mechanic around, but I will be doing this with my dad. We just installed a new fuel pump a week ago, and we had no idea how to do that...

    Is a new clutch supposed to act like this....?

    So i recently just got a new clutch kit installed in the car. It is a fidanza 3.2! Im using the stock flywheel however. The clutch has a pretty big break in period of 800 miles. At higher rpms, the clutch is nice. It seems to grab just fine and i have zero problems. However, at lower rpms, or...

    Removing this is a pain in the butt!

    Well i got the car back today from a clutch install. Wow, i cant wait till the clutch is broken in because its such strong material that it pretty much just slips when trying to move the car. However, when they removed the shifter, i guess the forgot to put the shifter bezel and that console...

    went to start the mustang......i think its dead

    So last night i was coming back from my friends house. Watching the OSU vs LSU destory might i add... when i got out of the car to open my garage door. I noticed that the rpms were pretty much bouncing. It would drop in rpm, then go back up to normal idle, then drop again....and so on. Also, i...

    My car is making a howling/whistling noise......

    Ok well i know this might be extremely hard to identify, but i would like some mechanical advice. I am taking it to a shop here in the next couple of weeks, but before that, i was wondering if i can get a sense of what might be the problem. The clutch right now is crap. It took a dump on me...

    Ok, so its about time to upgrade!

    Well over the past couple of week i have noticed that my car seems "sluggish" when i start from a dead stop. Now im not talking about a racing start, but more a normal start. It just feels like the car weights 10,000 lbs and doesnt want to move. I have a feeling it has something to do with the...

    Does anyone have problem with this?

    So my friend got his mustang dynoed today.... and while at the shop i asked the owner a few questions. I asked him about bbk longtube headers and he said they were a pain, just because they never fit right. He suggested Mac longtube headers and a Mac offroad H. Does anyone have this combo... and...

    Would this combo work, or is it just weird?

    So i was looking online and i found someone from svtperformance willing to sell a brand new bbk throttle body 75 mm for 150 shipped. So i want to jump on that cause i think its a good deal. However, i wanted to go accufab plenum and TB but since im getting the bbk one.... would it be wrong or...

    Is the shop trying to get money out of me.... or is this standard?

    So i finally decided to order 3.73 gears. I found the kit on american muscle with the gear oil and speed cal. So i had the shop quote me for 350 bucks and thats installation of the speed cal also. However, he said that i should probably get a tune done too. Now i was going to wait till i got my...

    What size throttle body for this application?

    Ok well my friend was wondering, what size throttle body to put on. He also has a 2003 mustang gt, so this information actually might benifit both. Anyways, the only mod he has done so far is a CAI with catback exhaust. He wants to do a plenum upgrade too but was wondering what size throttle...
