It's not knocking yet but is it even worth the effort to put a new pump in? I must have drove it for about 30 miles till I noticed it. My top end was all better than stock but the block has some hard miles on it being a stock 1986 unit. Maybe I should just park it and save up for a new short...

Had the 86 for almost 10 years now and its time to start thinking about starting from scratch. Second motor is on its last leg now. I am getting older and more in tune to that age old recommendation of starting with the foundation first. My car is already to fast for the stock brakes and sus...

I came to the forums over a year ago with issues on my charging system. Basically everyone just wanted to tell me to upgrade when I had a gut feeling the advice was wrong. Well it was. The car sat for over a year till I could scrounge the money together to get the 100 amp 3G and I also bought...

I have some cobra decals I want to try and sell in classifieds. They are small decals and can be stuck anyplace on any model Mustang so can I list an add on every body style in the classified section or just pick one and roll with it? Here is what I am selling. Brand new stick on decal. I have...

I seen this on feebay and was about to pull the trigger but this guys description has me wondering. Ive heard a couple times that the 86 stock system is a one year deal. So will this kit work for my 86? He says it will in one part of the listing, then 3 places it says its 87-93. Anyone with this...

Im not sure how much power im pushing but the block is all stock out of a lincoln. It has like 130k on it now and has used oil for a while. Its used its 8th life and I know its only a matter of time. I am wanting to start a new build and just unsure about it since I never did anything more then...

I looked up a caliper at the oriley website and im confused about the selection they have. I basically need the hose, caliper, pads, bearings, and rotor on the driver side front. So I bought the pads today(cant afford to do it all at once). The guy at the store didnt even tell me about the $12...

From what seems simple it sure is hard to get a clear answer to this question. So I made up this picture so it can talk for me since I must be retarded. All I want to know is where the wire goes? Its the wire in the center of the yellow circle. Thanks.

My car has taken a beating, and beat the crap out of me even more. Im a Chevy man and the only reason I bought the Mustang is cause the Camaro I wanted to buy was sold 3 hours before I could get to it. So I seen my 86 and after test driving it I caved. It was everything I wanted and more. This...

I can get one for $30 on ebay but before I do I thought id check and see if I can get a better deal on a used one. So if anyone has one laying around let me know price shipped to Mountain Home, AR 72653. Maybe a pic or link to a pic like it or whatever. I just need to be able to adjust my clutch...

My car has had off road H pipe and flows since I bought it in 2003. I started to hear the muffs rattle and took it to the shop. They fixed the leak in the pipes alright but its not near as loud as it was. At a light its hard to hear the cam anymore. I miss it. So aside from getting dumps whats...

You know im leery about the quality of a thermostat if you seen my post yesterday about the motorad/murray fail safe locking closed on me after only 1200 miles of use. So I dont want to live that bs again. I am going tomorrow to get a new one. I know where ford is in this town but not sure where...

Finally got my car going and my motorad "failsafe" Locked closed. It was a nightmare. Me wife and the kid stuck for 2 hours on the side of the road with the very same problem I paid extra to avoid. I have put the 180` stat in boiling water and its confirmed that it never budged. Only about...

I dropped my car off at the shop just to get the toe adjusted cause I put a new rack on it. Its not off that bad and I know how to adjust it myself so I am going to get it tomorrow done or not. 4 days is just bs. The way I have done it in the past is to just put screws in the tread and use a...

I am about to get some more gas since it seems low and its still on stands in the front. What I have done was the gt40 off the 2000 explorer. While I was at it I installed a fuel pressure gauge and adjustable regulator. When I try to start it I the car only tries to run. It turns a few times...

On the back of my 86 intake it has a 1" hole where a pcv style valve was and on the end of it was a vacuum line going to the Map Sensor. Whats that valve or Connector called that sits in the hole on the back of the intake? I am putting the 2000 explorer intake on and the valve/connector was...

I have been wondering. Is it worth it to buy that stuff or not? Anyone ever did a before and after dyno to test stock vs after market like crane or msd's 6a or hi-6s? I have zero exp with any of them.

Never mind this site's gay.

I am in the middle of finally doing my gt40 intake swap, along with the in fender cold air, and 65mm TB. My mass air is the standard small unit and will be the only small item left. I have a 70mm mass air out of a 97 stang with the v6. Can I just swap my sensor and cut the bolt flange out of the...

Looking for some diff wheels. We all know that choices are getting very slim. I got a fast fords and mustangs mag and the 4 lug wheels I see are for newer stangs. I have a 86 and wonder why they dont include my year? Offset? Also some sad news for me. I grew up back when the "5 stars" (style...
