I haven't been on in a while. I have been busy the last month or so making arrangements and preparring to build a Factory Five Roadster. I am using my 95 GTS as the donor.:D I hated to have to tear it apart but I have always wanted to build one of these cars, and I finally have the chance...

I finally got around to some updated photos of the car now that I am about done upgrading for the year.

Better hurry and get this RARE part! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330596305549&viewitem=&sspagename=ADME%3AB%3ASS%3AUS%3A1123

I had a close call in the garage yesterday. I had my car up on on jackstands in the rear and on ramps in the front to install subframe connectors. When I was done I lowered the rear but had trouble getting the jack out from under the rear end because the car is so low. In trying to get the...

I finally finished installing my Eibach coil over kit:D I had a few problems to work thru (Thanks Davis3!) and Eibachs instructions kind of suck but it's on and works and rides nice. I did the cobra brakes while I was at it. Now on to the subframe connectors I ordered today...

My Summit distributor apparently had gone south on me. I put my stock one back it and that solved my misfiring issues. I would like to put a new PIP in the Summit dizzy and put it back on the car. Anybody have a recommendation for a PIP that won't burn out in a couple months? Is the...

I finally got around to installing my Autometer wideband gauge. For now I have the o2 sensor in the h-pipe about a foot before the crossover. I would like to put it in the collector of the header as Autometer recommends for LT's. I know I can disable the driver side Hego and put it there...

I came across this ad on CL tonight. I hope they missed the decimal point! http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/ctd/2452321506.html

I think I solve my idle and bucking problems. Maybe this will help someone else too. I have been fighting this problem since I took it out of storage in April. It idled like poo and would have bucking under part throttle. Sometimes on WOT but not usually. I was thinking it was due to...

I got the Mustang out of the garage today and went for a nice long ride. Man did that feel good. I had been getting the itch for a new 5.0, so taking my car out did me some good. I did stop by the dealership after hours and looked at them anyways:D

My wife and I were out running around today and we stopped at a Ford dealership to kick a few tires. We were looking at a row of Mustangs and she sees one she likes in Kona Blue. Now she being a die hard University of Michigan fan, makes this offer: You can get one IF you paint a big...

I have been looking at getting a G Force T5 for my car and I have a question about bellhousings. I know the difference between the Fox BH and the SN95 BH. I just want to be clear on if I can use a Fox T5 and BH on my car. I think I would just need a spacer on my driveshaft, correct? I have...

I am looking to upgrade the brakes on my car to Cobra fronts and want some opinions on which way to go. Option 1: Buy the Cobra upgrade kit for roughly 500-600 dollars Option 2: Buy used Cobra parts, but looks like still going to be 200-300 dollars+ Option 3: New Bullitt calipers/pads...

A couple of weeks ago I paid off our 06 Freestar 10 months early. Only 65K on it and running good so I was looking forward to saving the extra cash, maybe spending a little on the Mustang. Well the wife called me at work and told me that the van died right in front of the house as she was...

I came across this ad on Craigslist today. He says never driven in the snow...Maybe, but his picture makes me think otherwise. Mustang GT

I am upgrading to 36lb injectors and a PRO M meter. Does it really matter what the meter is calibrated to if I am going to put the transfer data and injector size in the Tweecer anyways? I will get it calibrated to 36lb so I can run on the stock tune if need be, but I just wondering in case I...

I had the car on the car on the dyno a few weeks ago (dyno challenge) and was running out of fuel by 5300-5500 RPM. I just looked at my last datalog on the Tweecer and my injector duty was at 88% at 5500 rpm. I am running at 39 psi fuel pressure. Should I bump it up a little or upgrade to 36...

We had a dyno challenge for the 28th Metro Cruise this weekend so I took the opportunity to put the car on the dyno. Turned out pretty good. 338 RWHP and 378 RWTQ. I only pulled to just over 5K due to a miss at around 5300. So I am excited to get that fixed and try again and pull all the way...

I am looking to buy some new rockers for my 331 and pitch the crappy Proform rockers I have right now. I know, I know, you get what you pay for... I had Proform pedestal rockers before and they were ok but got these stud mount rockers when I switched heads. These are too damn noisy and I am...

I bought a new project car Sunday. Some assembly required! Since this is my eigth Mustang and my wife thinks am nuts or stupid (maybe both) , I am calling it Project Crazy Eight. It is a 90 GT, it is mostly all there, just need a drivetrain, rear bumper and some interior items. I already...
