    oil change schedule

    Thank you for all that information. I am not sure that I can go 25k Amsoil without oil change. It's just me hard headed. I wonder if Ford would honner the warranty with Amsoil with that interval. As I mentioned before, I would go with Mobil1 and Motorcraft filter. I want to go with...

    Single Side perf exhaust?

    Riggs, Thank you for the info. What I mentioned was the number from a Mustang book shows an advertized HP, and I was wondering about the way of measurment as well. My '67 was around 160hp 210 torque on a rear wheel dyno. I believe what you said is right.

    Single Side perf exhaust?

    The base 289 was making 225hp in the '60's. Today's V6 is making almost the same. Nothing to laugh about:nice:

    Mustang again

    Any difference in size of the grill it self? I saw some grill specified for GT or V6, and my guess is that GT and V6 grills don't interchange.

    Mustang again

    Thank you for all the information. I appreciate it. My wife doesn't like the street scene. She wants the V6 Pony grill. I guess I would go for the OEM. What's the difference between V6 front grill & GT's? Where Can I find pics of V6's? I've checked the "Post your pic of..." thread...

    oil change schedule

    Thank you for the information. I will do every 5000 miles as usual. Surprised see there is no dip stick for AT fluid BTW. I've seen many Fords started burning oil after switching from using Motorcraft conventional (long term) to other brands. So I'm thinking about switching to Mobil1 from...

    oil change schedule

    Regarding my wife's '08 V6, I just read the manual saying interval is 7500miles. Am I right? I usually use mobil1 every 5000miles. When should I do the first oil change? What oil everyone use? I would appreciate your help.

    Mustang again

    I don't have my '67 any more. I had to sell her when we got married & moved in '04. We just got a '08 for my wife. 2008 V6 base model in Vista Blue, which my wife is very happy with (her first new car) even though no bells & whistles. Where is a good site to purchase parts for? I only...

    Where is the reverse band lock nut located?

    C4 no reverse

    I can use my shop lift & tranny jack so there shouldn't be any problem as far as working space goes. Our shop doesn't do any tranny work, except the tranny service, and I've never worked on any tranny. The shop owner has worked on tranny long time ago, and he's got tons of experience but it's...

    C4 no reverse

    5 hours doesn't sound too bad at all. Is it after you drop the tranny? Yeah, pictures helps. I'm planning to get a manual for C4 as you mentioned, and do it on weekend. However, it's been wasy too busy, and I haven't spent any weenends at my place more than a month. I've been alwasy out of...

    C4 no reverse

    The C4 has more than 60,000 miles on since the last rebuilt. Do you think it failed prematurely? How long did it take you to rebuilt one?

    C4 no reverse

    Turbo II, Thank you for the info. When I serviced my C4, found no chunks/flakes. Just some film. The fluid didn't stink like burned. The reverse still engages after 30 seconds or more. If the reverse pump is bad, that would affect forward gears as well, right? Since I don't have any...

    C4 no reverse

    Thank you so much for your input. The fluid level is good, and I serviced my C4 about two month ago (new fluid & new filter). I'll try to do the pressure test whenever I have time but what kinda pressure tester do I need? I'd appreciate your help.
