    Rebuilding my 1994 GT 'Vert

    Hey guys! It's been a while since I've been on here, but I still own my 1994 Mustang GT Convertible. It has 4.10's, a foxbody T-5, king cobra clutch, and the original 302 with 192k on the speedo (Could be wrong due to years of driving with the 4.10's and incorrect speedo gear). I have owned...

    RANT!!! Hood Corrosion Warranty Issue.

    In mid March 2018, I noticed the paint bubbling on the front of the hood on my triple yellow 2015 Mustang GT PP 50 year package. It was about the size of a dime, right above the passenger side head light. I contacted Cloninger Ford of Hickory (North Carolina) and explained the issue to the...

    I brought my new Ford Mustang (owned less than a month) to Custom 4 Wheel Parts & Accessories at 7101 South Blvd. Charlotte, NC on December 3rd, 2016 to have my front windows, rear quarter windows, and rear window tinted with LLumar Window Film (LLumar). Less than a week later, all windows...

    Work In A Storage Unit?

    I recently moved from PA to Charlotte, NC. I was given little notice from the company I was working for and pretty much had to move in just a few weeks. Due to this, my car is torn apart in PA in my fathers garage and does not start (Was in the middle of an engine swap). I am considering...

    Brakes How To Delete Abs?

    I am in the process of installing a turbo kit on my car. Due to the ABS being in the way and me always hating ABS, I figure it'd be best to delete it. Does anyone have any guide or steps to delete the ABS? Would it be easier for me to just move it? Thanks.

    Any Advice Before Installing My Turbo?

    I purchased a Boost Brothers turbo kit a few months ago. I have ported the hot side of the turbo and polished the cold side. I have ceramic coated the hot side and powder coated the cold side. I have ceramic coated the outside of the piping before the turbo and did the outside and inside of the...

    Progress Thread Just finished re-working a turbo.

    After hours spent disassembling, porting, polishing, cleaning, degreasing, polishing the outside of the turbo, mixing up a powder coat, powder coating the cold side, powder coating the hardware brackets on the back, ceramic coating the hot side, baking for over 3 hours, and reassembling, this is...

    Engine 351W - Max Lift? Which Heads Are Better?

    I will soon be swapping in an 1983 351W [E3 Block]. Since I've ran out of money, which heads will be better? E7's [Drilled for bigger head bolts] or the heads that are stock on that engine? I will be porting and polishing them myself. Here is the cam I will be using...

    Engine Cam suggestion? HELP!

    I am going to be swapping in a 83 351w in to my 94 mustang convertible and need a suggestion for a cam. I would like to purchase an off-the-shelf cam instead of going through the trouble of a custom ground cam. I will be keeping it as a flat-tappet, so keep that in mine. NO HYDRAULIC ROLLER...

    Best way to protect turbo piping?

    I just received my Boost Brothers turbo kit. The welds and everything are really nice and I'm impressed with it. However, it is unpainted. I'm wondering what is the most economical way to keep temps down while keeping the piping from pitting/rusting/going to hell. Currently I'm looking at...

    Car Stalls When Pushing In The Clutch To A Stop?

    I just converted my 94 GT Vert from an AODE to a foxbody T5. Since I've done this, when I'm above 50mph and push in the clutch to come to a stop, the cars rpms will lower [like they should], but instead of resting at about 5-700rpms, it stalls out. Any ideas?

    Drivetrain T5 Knocking?! --- Video

    Just did the AODE to foxbody T5 swap. Here is a video of the knocking: I tried tightening the cable and it is about 2/3rds down on thr clutch fork (where the nuts tighten) and it feels tight I also read that it should be preloaded, which I dont agree with, but it feels like the throwout is...

    Drivetrain Fresh T5 Install - Knocking???

    I recently just installed a T5 out of a 4cyl foxbody in my 94 GT Vert. My car was previously an AODE. I finally finished the swap today, and hopped in, started it up [with the car in neutral] and hear this tapping sound, like it's a bad rod or something. Thing is, when I pull in the clutch...

    Drivetrain How Should The Clutch Feel?

    I'm doing an AODE to T5 swap and am currently adjusting my clutch cable. I've always thought you should feel the clutch engage about 1/4-1/2" as the pedal is pressed... Like it should have a little play so it's not always riding the clutch. What does a normal clutch feel like on a 94-95 and how...

    Drivetrain 4cyl T5 In A 94 5.0

    I grabbed a T5 off craigslist along with the clutch fork and bellhousing. I was able to find a pilot bearing that fit in the crank and around the shaft of the trans, but now when I go to slide the trans into the bellhousing/engine it sticks out by about 1/4". I've tried wiggling it, twisting it...

    Drivetrain Aode To T5 --- What Goes In This Hole?

    I'm in the middle of swapping my AODE to a T5. I have a transmission like one pictured below. What goes in the hole that is circled? Is it the speedo gear and sensor? Mine doesn't seem to fit [it's loose]. Any advice? Thanks!!!

    Took my brake pedal assembly out, how does it go back in?

    What pushes on what to make the brakes function? Anyone have a picture of their setup? Preferably a manual transmission. I just forget how it hooks back up and want to make sure I do it right. Thanks!

    How low is your cross member near your oil pan?

    I haven't toyed with my car in a while, it's been sitting in the garage for about a year due to a blown transmission. I was jacking it up and noticed the cross member that protects my oil pan [don't know correct name for it] seems to be sagging. I don't know if it's really sagging or if it...
