    Car running poorly; need advice *have codes*

    Ok, so I got a great deal on a 1995 GT, knowing it had some tune-up issues to attend to. When I bought it, the check engine light was on, it had no power, it pinged at anything above 1/8th throttle--it was a mess. It was owned by neglectful females it's entire life and hadn't had a tune up...

    Aluminum Flywheel and Driveshaft HP

    Is anybody seeing a hp increase on the dyno and down the quarter with aluminum DS and flywheel? I have heard on other car forums that some people see a very noticeable increase on the dyno from switching to aluminum flywheels, and wondered if anybody has tested this on a Mustang. I understand...

    Supercharger Dyno Graph Comparison

    After looking at some dynos for roots and twin screw, I wanted to compare them to a centrifugal (Vortech, Paxton) dyno. Anybody that has boosted their car, please post your mods and dyno graphs here. I am specifically looking for the graphs so I can analyze powerband and torque curves. Thanks...

    Who has the highest spinning 302 (or stroked 302)?

    I am getting back in the 5.0 game, and want to merge the best of the import world, the high rev count, with the best of the domestic world--the Mustang GT with a 302. I am trying to figure out what is available, what has been done, and what can be done. I am looking for no more than 7500rpms...

    Aluminum Flywheel Durability

    I am having an argument with a friend on the durability of aluminum flywheels; he claims they are fragile and may warp/shatter too easily. I claim that the risk is increased, but the likeliness is still out of question. Since neither of us have personal experience with this part, we are at an...

    Looking for impressive N/A power in a '96-'98

    I am considering going the N/A route with a '96-'98 GT, obviously using the P.I. heads, however. I am wondering who has done this and what is out there. I know there are stages of porting and cams for these heads, but I wish to know how high these things can go (hp wise and rpm wise) with the...
