    I need some opinions. See inside.....

    Is there a particular way to tell if it has that firing order? Going to Crane's website and following the product links to a 74 351W gives a huge list, none of which seems to indicate the firing order. I'm watching cams on Ebay right now for 351W's and have no idea what the firing order...

    I need a very specific website

    All of the swap info I read hints that somewhere, someone has used drop mounts and an intake setup that clears the stock hood. Does anyone have any pictures, links or info on this, most specifically if any of the standard aftermarket EFI intakes with solid mounts can be made to fit under there?

    What's the easiest most inexpensinve 5 lug conversion?

    Questions I was going to start a new thread but this is right up my alley. I was going to just purchase the 50resto kit for ease of change, and new components, but like the poster, I'm curious if newer Bullitt Style 18" and Cobra III Knockoff 18" rims backspacing will work with a simple swap...

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify!

    I hope its 8,8 I'll verify but this is an original 5.0L car, which I understood all came with 8.8's. When I was in the process of buying it, I did get brake prices from Canadian Tire and they offered a "premium" drum that was finned for double the price of a standard one, so that could be...

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify!

    Added new pics. Also, its funny that the car is 19 years old and its got no rust, but the aftermarket arm is very badly rusted after maybe 5 years?

    Koni's Do the Koni 30's have a reputation of providing a harsh ride, even on the lowest adjusted setting? I've never really experienced a "harsh" ride that was mainly due to a strut, even a stiff one, like I have right now, so I'm hoping when I get the springs out the rates are as high as I...

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify!

    Well I talked to MM today and they indicated that if its using Koni 30's ( which mine is ) it is actually a Griggs setup. He also indicated that having coilovers up front, with a standard Lower A arm out back is an odd choice, and no matter what I do with the spring rates, the shocks even set...

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify!

    Only Problem I face is the the rears are a standard spring, and the fronts are coilovers. So I need to be able to purchase only the rears of all these sets, then get some appropriate hypercoil ones to match up front. Ryan

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify!

    Sweet That's what I'm hoping. Then I can order a set of specific rate springs for the front coilover from MM and get a lowering spring set for the rear, and raise the perches to get the height I want, while still using the factory isolators. I havn't done a hard search, but do companies (...

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify!

    87-93 Rear lower control arm. Help identify! *NEW PICS* I recently purchased an 88 Coupe with what was advertised as a Coilover suspension. I didn't really care as I was more concerned with the condition of the car. Well I've got it now, and it rides extremly rough. I want to change the...

    700-900 lb spring rate for Street mustangs with 1 inch drop or more??? HELP PICS!

    Spring rates Can I ask how I can tell whether my setup is working well with each other, or how to tell what the existing spring rate is? The car isn't that low, I have slightly more gap then the poster showed, but like I said, it rides very, very rough. To the point where a 1/2" metal...

    700-900 lb spring rate for Street mustangs with 1 inch drop or more??? HELP PICS!

    I would love to have your problem. I bought a 88 Notchback that has a coilover kit on it, and the ride is about 1/4" higher than yours in the front, and it rides like a frickin' brick. I don't know if its printed on the springs, but when I take them off it should be interesting to see if I can...

    Bulb Guide for 87-93 ( or others )

    Thanks! I guess I should have thought to look there. I have a subscription to AllData for this car and I can't find acutal bulb details for the interior anywhere, so that helps alot. Normally I'd just pull them out and look, but in my case, its the gauges that are half out and of this list...

    Bulb Guide for 87-93 ( or others )

    Is there a bulb guide started like the one at my old Subaru forums? I found it supremely helpful when I was starting out, like I am for the Mustang, to replace an upgrade the various bulbs that burn out and dim over time. Anyone? If not, maybe with some help we can get one together. Ryan...
