    Accident

    It is with great sadness that I let you guys know I got in an accident tonight. Everyone was fine, but the adrenaline is still pumping pretty nicely. To make a long story short, I was on my way to see Boondock Saints in theaters for it's 10th anniversary. It had rained earlier, and the road...

    Longtubes?

    So the old BBK longtubes on the fox took a crap on me...big hole on one of the primary tubes. So I'm in the market for a new pair. To go for another set of BBK's, or to get something else. Anyone have any recommendations? The BBK's can be had off Summit for 300 or so. Thanks! Danny

    Photoshoot tonight...

    So I spent the day getting the car cleaned up, and my buddy Brent wanted to go play with his new-ish DSLR. So after putting a new header gasket on (damn you BBK longtubes!), we took the car out do a deserted neighborhood, and this is what we came up with. Took high ISO, long exposure shots, and...

    302 vs 351w weight?

    My college graduation present to myself is probably going to be a shortblock for my coupe, and I'm trying to make decisions. Out of curiosity, what would the weight difference between a 302-based stroker and a 351w-based stroker?

    Project Window Trim

    So I've spent a couple hours a day the past 3 days outside during my short 2-week college summer before classes start again out side taping, sanding, primering, sanding, and painting all of the window trim on the car. Windshield, rear window, quarter windows (ugh), the removable trim below each...

    It's been a while...

    So I've been gone a long, long time. I've gone to college (I'm a junior now, studying Civil Engineering), gone through girlfriends, friends, hobbies (I now scuba dive regularly and work in a dive shop), and I've moved on through cars as well. I sold the Georgia Highway Patrol car. I came...

    Nemesis!!!!

    So here's the story on the video. Apparently it's a brother team, one drives the Saleen, the other (video car) is a 911 Porsche. The Saleen always kicks his ass (as shown by the video, he walks around him), and the brother begins his "loving" commentary. He's just messing around, and it's pretty...

    Big brakes?

    Anyone know if the 2000 Cobra R "big brake" kit will fit on 17'' 1998 Cobra wheels? Just trying to figure some stuff. 4 pot calipers and 14'' rotors out front would be AWESOME.

    Blower questions

    For an S-trim: What size injectors? 42 lb/hr? Also, will the included T-rex pump be ok, or will I need to get a larger in-tank pump as well? What kind of numbers should I expect on a stock head/intake car (7-10 psi)? For an SC-trim: What size injectors? What type of numbers...

    Gforce uses, please chime in!

    So what are people opinions on G-force transmissions? I have some plans for my car, and the only thing that really worries me is the stock-ish T5. It was rebuilt recently, but they shop didn't do a very good job. The car will be on street tires, maybe drag radials once in a blue moon. It will...

    Are FMU's Safe?

    The title says it all....are they? I really want a Novi 1000 or Vortech SC-trim kit, but I don't have the cash to drop on the kit (1,700 or so), a new MAF, the injectors, the tune, the fuel pump, and whatever install I can't do. I'll probably be able to install most of the kit myself, with...

    Had a scary day on Monday

    So I was driving back to college from home. Just had a wonderful spring break out skiing in Colorado with my girlfriend and her family. Didn't get to spend much time with my family though, so I was kind of bummed, and in a slump. Right after I get on the highway (4 hour drive), I'm on the phone...

    Wateford Lakes

    Who else went? I thought it was alright. The late model stuff was pretty boring...a couple of cool cars. I was parked over with Orlando Mustang in the vendor section. I would give it a B- minus this year. It could have been better, but it also could have been much worse.

    What the heck?

    http://classifieds.stangnet.com/showproduct.php?product=41196 So I'm pretty sure that car got wrecked and parted out. Does this seem strange to anyone else?

    Magnaflow?

    Any body here got long tubes, H pipe, and Magnaflow? I have 3 chamber flow masters, and the car sounds good, but I'm looking for a more "exotic" sound (Bassani, Borla, etc.) that's louder as well. My mustang "guru" has Magnaflow on his new Mach 1, and it sounds awesome. Bassani and...

    Seat belt harness?

    So I just bought a Recaro driver seat for my baby, and I want to run a 4 or 5 point harness with it. I have the SSP package roll bar, but I have no place to hook up the top two parts of the harness. Does anyone have a mounting solution for the top two points on the harness? I've heard you can...

    Gauge pods?

    So I'm buying mechanical water temp and oil pressure gauges to install on the fox (a littl present to myself :D ). The thing is...I need 2 1/16'' holes for the gauges. I'm probably going with the Ultra Lite 2 series gauges (http://www.autometer.com/cat_gaugeop.aspx?sid=61). I'd like to have...

    Mechanical Gauges?

    What senders do mechanical gauges use (autometer, etc.)? The stock ones? Both Summit and Jegs don't have them "included" with the gauges when you buy them, and they only sell electrical senders. As far as I know, the stock senders are the down fall of the actualy stock gauges...just curious...

    Heads?

    Hey guys. As you all know, I'm a college guy on a college budget. The B cam is great, but I really need a littttlllleee more power. Full out aluminum H/C/I is a bit out there on pricing. Blower is even more expensive, and turbo is just a pipe dream at the moment. Sooooooo..... What does it...

    Thoughts?

    So as I've mentioned a few times, I'm going to try and autocross my car this year. Maybe even attend a few open track events. The thing is, I want to upgrade the brakes on the car. I found this kit through a friend who ordered one...
