    Will a stock h-pipe off a '02 GT fit a '99 GT ??

    I called Ford and the guy said the H-Pipe for the '01 and '02 GT is the same part #. But the part # is different when compared to the '99 H-Pipe part #. But dont all the aftermarket pipes sell as "99-04" fitting?

    Loud bang on startup and loud tapping sound from the top of the engine

    Josh-- I hope you still have a warranty on your car. I'm pretty sure you blew a plug right through the danm head. Not literally, but the plug might have misthreaded itself and F'd everything up. If that is the case, new head and new coil pack assembly. It happened to me-- and thats...

    No oil and 6K RPM-- bad noise coming from engine. Blown??!

    shonoff-- I thought that same thing. That is what I am concerned about. mikez28-- That makes the most logical sense. I would like to think this. I'm just concerned, obviously, because nobody treats someone elses car like their own. And another thought is since they are flat rate mechanics, if...

    Do I need a clutch

    Huh. 30K and a bad clutch doesnt seem right. You said it "bucks" for the first few hundred rpms in 1st and 2nd? And it has only been noticable for the past few days? Give us a little more insight on how long its been happening for and does this bucking happen when the car is cold? One way to...

    No oil and 6K RPM-- bad noise coming from engine. Blown??!

    Ok. There is a lot more to the story, that I will (try to) say in a nutshell. Car was leaking oil badly about 4 weeks ago. Brought it to Ford, they fixed it (under warranty). It was a really simple fix. The fixed it, added oil, and a new filter. Since then, I've driven it pretty hard--...

    What can I expect???

    if its a 99+, i've seen gains as high as 30hp to the wheels from headers, o/r midpipe, and catback, and a k&n. My buddy has a dyno shop. Lot of 4.6 99+ with the same results.

    '00 GT Clutch Prob

    If its slipping again, you must tell them that. When you brought it back, after having the 2nd clutch installed, they only mentioned the rattling?? What did they say about the slipping? I'm sure its aligned properly because it was installed twice, and worked after fine, for a little bit at...

    Installing o/r H-Pipe... will Check Engine light sacrifice power?? Mil eliminators??

    I definately plan on getting MILs... I just dont think I will have them in time for the midpipe install. I want to have the light off, so I know if something else goes wrong-- obviously. I just wanted to know if it had ANY impact on my car's performance, whatsoever. As long as it does not, I...

    Installing o/r H-Pipe... will Check Engine light sacrifice power?? Mil eliminators??

    I have read a bunch of threads, but still have not found a direct answer. I am planning on installing an o/r h-pipe on my 99GT this Tuesday. I know that damn light is going to come on. When it does, is the timing, air/fuel, or anything like that being thrown off by the computer?? I dont know...

    Off-road vs. Cats for a 99+ 4.6 ????????? Help!

    Emissions is of no concern. I care only about performance and sound. I have also heard that H will give more low end torque (more back-pressure), and that the X will give more upper-end power. What I wanted to run across everybody was my concern that power would be sacrificed. Also...

    Off-road vs. Cats for a 99+ 4.6 ????????? Help!

    I've decided to keep the 99GT and start modding it. Gotta start with the basics. ON A STOCK MOTOR, which it will remain, is an o/r h/x pipe the way to go?? I have heard sooooo much controversy on this topic it is driving me crazy. So I need some facts guys. I want to put an o/r h-pipe on there...
