Hey everyone, I've been away for a while, but hopefully some of you old timers remember me. I see plenty of new people and changes here -- looks like everything is going very well. Anyway, wanted to drop a note and let everyone know I'm going to try to spend some more time here now. So...

I picked up an intake real cheap last night -- too cheap to pass up. Now that I look at it in the daylight and examine it a little closer, I wonder if I did the right thing. This is supposed to be a REAL 93 Cobra Intake (read: off an original Cobra), with some nice port work done to it...

I've been piecing together a 5-speed swap for quite some time now, and finally started getting serious about it. I have the pedals swapped into the car, and I have just about everything else I need except for a tranny to go to a T5. I was undecided about a T5 or a Tremec, as I have had both...

Anyone close by have a left side stock header for a fox that is in good shape (studs in good shape). I'm in a bind right now and could use one quick, just to get me by until the aftermarkets arrive. Have a couple bad studs on mine currently and it's looking pretty much impossible to get them...

Simple question -- do you need tailpipes? What is the law -- some states require the exhaust past the axle, some past the door, don't know what Washington is. Thanks! :nice:

Quick question as I'm putting stuff back together with this Hammer shifter... The console was just short of a nightmare to get back on over top of the shifter -- and yes, I did take the handle and trigger off. Now that it's back on there, the very front of the shifter pushes up on the front...

I was working on my B&M Hammer shifter a little while ago and it dawned on me that some people may have never seen a car without some options or maybe didn't even know some things were options. So I snapped a couple pictures to show. For the record, this is on an 87, later years would have...

After mostly installing a B&M Hammer shifter in my car (seems like a really nice shifter so far) it came time to adjust the cable. Now the Hammer directions differ from OEM in that they state to adjust the cable in neutral, while OEM states to adjust it in OD. Now I did as the instructions...

Anyone know what's up with the emissions issue the governor is trying to push through? I heard it may just be for new cars, but it's supposed to be toughest in the country -- even more than CA? :shrug:

I've used different types of plug wire dividers and never really had a favorite. At the present time, I'm using a set of MSD 8.5mm wires and stock type routing, against the valve covers, with a couple extra 4-wire holders so the wires stay straight and divided. It looks ok I think. It's easy...

Just changing plug wires and picked up a set of the MSD Super Conductor Wires. Look really nice, probably nicest set of wires I've had going by looks and construction alone. Anyway, seems that the #8 wire is really too long. Most all the other wires seem to fit really nice. I set up the...

Strange Belt Question: I ordered a serpentine belt from an online company I have used before (very good price -- www.rockauto.com -- $8.83) and just recieved it today. Now I ordered an 84.5" belt for my application. I recieved a package that has the correct number and cross-references on...

I finally removed my A/C from this car (like every other one I've had) usin the FMS kit, but this one seems a little different. I'm wondering if someone can take some pics of a properly routed non-A/C P/S hose setup? Currently, this seems to fit best by running the metal part of the hose...

Anyone know of any yards in the area with Mustangs? Or anyone have these parts for me? I am specifically looking for: *Stock battery tray for an EFI Mustang 87-93 *Lower rear windshield trim piece for 87-93 coupe (black) *Possibly 91-91 T5 in good shape *Some other small miscellaneous...

Hello again, As I see now, my Strange rear shocks look like they need spacers on either side at the bottom -- the sleeve seems to fit right, but not the rubber bushings -- so it seems they may slide under use. Can anyone tell me the proper size bushing (if I need them) and where to get...

Just wanted to give a quick mention of my experience at Brad's Custom Auto...I trailered the car down there early Wednesday morning and was ready for work to begin at 9:00. It did promptly. It ended up taking longer than I thought -- due to the setup, but the guys there worked through every...

Hello, I somewhat recently put the back half of my car back together -- and now that I've had a chance to drive it I'm wondering if something might be wrong. I have UPR upper and lower control arms, the uppers are solid mounts, the lowers have one solid one poly mount. I have all the seams...

Well, here I am! I finally made it here to Washington. I packed up everything in my F150, my trailer, and my car and made the trek across the country from Connecticut, of course I took the long way around and enjoyed the scenery. Anyway, now that I'm here in beautiful Mill Creek and...

Well, some of you may know that last year I sold my orange car, but what you may not know is that I picked up another car to work on. Without getting into long details, it's an 87 Coupe -- no options on the car except for the A/C, AOD, and radio -- not even tilt steering (first I had seen)...

Getting ready -- I'm thinking I will be getting the rest of the rear back in tonight, so I'm looking for info on the springs. I'm reusing my stock rear springs from my 87 car. I have heard that installing them in a certain direction can increase the clearance height -- also heard that doing...
