    ahhh, question #2 for the day. swapped out the stock aode in my 95 gt vert with a 4R70W from a 96 explorer. car ran when I took it apart for the swap. I did swap the TCC solenoid as told and got a chip for the computer. timing is on par as well. car wont start. cant even really hear...

    had the engine/trans out doing some work and got it all back together except this one connector. with how dirty it is on the outside and how clean it is on the inside, it HAD to be hooked up but for the life of me I cannot find the other end of it... it's over by the MAF and radiator if that...

    calling all convertible guys....

    I know this is more tech related by I figured since it wasnt engine, I could post it here: the top on my 95 gt vert that I bought hasnt worked in ages according to the previous owner. I pulled the back seat as well as the inner quarter trim panels and the mach 460 speaker system and started...

    explorer/mountie cam upgrade over stock?

    There's a 97 mountaineer 5.0 out in the u-pull and someone already ripped off the valvetrain leaving just the shortblock there for the picking. I'm in the process of pulling apart the engine in my 95 gt vert to replace the timing chain and thought maybe I would go ahead and get this cam if it's...

    which staples for replacing convertible top??

    alright, we pulled the old top off my brother's 96 vert and this weekend we're going to put the new top on. We're having a tough time figuring out what length staples to use on the top vanes where you're supposed to staple it back in after looping it through the vane...as well as on the front...

    mod motor retrofit kits??

    are there any companies making oil pan/motor&trans mount kits for putting mod motors in classic mustangs?? we're tossing around the idea of tossing a 4.6 of some sort into a 71 coupe but want to see what pre-fab options there are before we go to the trouble of whipping out the ole tig machine...

    soooo angry right now

    well, it's partially my fault but whatever. I've got a few 4bolt clevelands that I've been saving since I was in high school. I had one that I tore down to find pitting in the cylinder wall of a few cylinders but it wasnt bad and could be bored out. well I set that on the side for a while and...

    just as the title says, will the A3M1 ecu plug and play into a 1989 mustang GT harness?? I can get one much cheaper than an A9L to get my car running again and would like to do this until I can find a better deal on an A9L...

    I've got both an 86 cougar with a standard 5.0 engine and a 94 cougar with a 5.0 HO engine. I want to put the engine/trans from the 94 cougar into my 88 mustang. I'm assuming these use the same ECU as from the 94/95 5.0 mustangs?? can I use the motor mounts and trans mount from the 94...

    any free ways to track an old mustang??

    I've got a co-worker that always talks about his old 65 ragtop he sold and how he'd like to find it and get it back. I finally just asked him yesterday if he still has the VIN anywhere from any old records (since he's a packrat) and he thinks he does. I was thinking carfax but then I know it...

    how does this look to you??

    I think it turned out pretty darn good myself. gets kinda boring trying to do a project when you're STILL waiting on the aluminum block you need to weld with haha... I went with the red wrinkle finish mainly because I like it. If it's good enough for ferrari, lotus, lamborghini, acura, etc...

    Anyone have pics of 70 Mustang Starter Relay?

    ok, been working on the goofed up wiring on a 70 mach 1 for a guy that had a performance engine/etc installed in it. They had the msd ignition and cooling fan wired together and to a relay. I found out later why this is so. Somehow, the starter will turn on in the "ON" position so they...

    70 mustang ignition switch? where to get?

    I need an ignition switch for a 70 mustang. Well, I think that's it, it's the part attached to the column that the lock cylinder activates. If that's not the ignition switch I don't know what is. Also, update for any that have been paying attention to the progress on the 70 mustang from...

    ok, a 70 mach 1 came into the shop today, actually a pretty nice car overall. Problem is...after the guy got the engine, etc installed the car dies on him unless he unhooks the battery. Took one look at the bay and it looks at first glance like the msd system is installed wrong and might be...
