    2002 GT Convertible Wet Floor/Leak

    I know this thread is a little old but.... I found an alternate resolution. The back of the water channel where it meets the wheel well has an opening that is usually plugged up with seam sealer from the factory. Those reliefs in the pinch weld just aren't enough and sealing the floor pan is a...

    Engine Stock Air Box Stroked 351/383

    I was looking at using the Stock replacement K&N. The "E-0940" It has a gasket around the edge and an inner metal plate. Can that metal base plate be removed? I want to avoid modifying the plate on the filter because i would hate getting shrapnel inside the element. Chris

    Engine Stock Air Box Stroked 351/383

    ok i figured out the 90mm will fit in if i do a bunch of cutting. I also did some measurements and found that the "RU-2590" K&N should fit in place of the stock filter but still allow plenty of air flow around the filter and also has a 4" inlet. I think i can keep 4" diameter flow throughout the...

    Engine Stock Air Box Stroked 351/383

    Did you lose power??? I wish someone out there flow tested a modified or stock airbox to at least get an idea of CFM. They make aftermarket air boxes but for the price i would build my own. But i'm trying to go for the stock look and maintenance.

    My engine is a 351 stroked to a 383 90mm Throttle body 90mm MAF Right now i have a 90mm intake going to a 4" long K&N filter. I know it picks up alot of heat and unnecessary dirt from the engine compartment. The stock box has an outlet that is quite large and can be modified to fit. If i...

    My Sn95 Broke Down

    If a part goes on my 18-19 year old car i want the replacement to last just as long. Breaking down on the side of the road just isnt as fun for me as it used to be. lol

    My Sn95 Broke Down

    Noone rebuilds their distributors? Its easier and cheaper to get a Motorcraft one and install it. You dont want to buy a whole distributor just to get a generic electrical part. If you cant do it bring the distributor to a machine shop. But whatever you do make sure you get a Motorcraft PIP...

    SN95 Convertible Down. Quarter Glass Up. Why?

    OK cool....i was a bit confused. I know that when i had my top replaced they ran the cable the wrong way and it would sometimes interfere with the window. I guess i'll put them all down and show off my window functionality.

    SN95 Convertible Down. Quarter Glass Up. Why?

    Why do i see people in convertibles of various makes and models (Not just Mustangs) with the top down, door glass down but the rear quarter glass up on both sides? Never understood why. Chris

    Water Pump Gasket To Rtv Or Not?

    OK so secretly i use Permatex gasket tack on stuff....lol Especially a few spots on intake gaskets to hold them in place. Does the Ford manual tell you to install intake gaskets without the cork and to use sealand around the water port on the intake like most folks do? I'm not yet rich enough to...

    Water Pump Gasket To Rtv Or Not?

    Its extra insurance. Noone wants to remove a pump just to change a gasket. Leaks in that area can also be hard to detect sometimes.

    Water Pump Gasket To Rtv Or Not?

    Yeah that sucks... Get a FelPro gasket. Usually the ones included are paper thin and become brittle. What about NAPA pumps?

    Water Pump Gasket To Rtv Or Not?

    Personally.... I use a thin layer of RTV around the water ports both sides of the gasket and some anti seize on the bolts. No leaks there ever. Overkill? Sure...... But what happens if you underkill a bear?

    Electrical Electric Fan Choices

    The difference is quality and CFM. With that said some of the most reliable highest CFM flowing fans are OEM ford ones. Lincoln Mark viii, Contour, Taurus etc. as larrym1961 also mentioned. Most aftermarket fans barely cover half the radiator and are weak. The best ones are the Ford engineered...
