    351W or 331? Can't decide!

    I'd go with the 331, but that's just my personal preference. I know several people who have done the 351 swap and have no regrets.

    Idling at 1700-2200?? Help!

    Good afternoon all. I've recently started having some problems with my idle (only when the car is up at operating temperature) surging up to 1700-2200 and not coming back down. It will even do this while the car is in gear and seemingly "drive itself" if I let off of the throttle. Any ideas...

    5.0 Resto... Reliable?

    Hey guys, just curious about the reputation of 5.0 Resto? I need to order some parts like a hatch latch striker, door striker bushing, etc. Wondered whether anyone's had good/bad experiences with them and whether or not I should order from them or someone else? Thanks, folks!

    Tire Tech, for street and road course best for cheap

    Well, they hook fairly well for being the performance tire that they are (oriented more towards handling than traction off the line). Sure, they won't be as sticky as the Nitto's will but for something that I drive daily (which includes inclimate weather and very aggressive driving) I...

    STEEDA TRI-AX Shifter good?????????

    I love my Tri-Ax and wouldn't trade it for anything else. Though, I do agree that the Pro 5.0 and Tri-Ax are very similar in quality and performance. With either one you can't go wrong, and the install is very straightforward.

    bassani x-pipe

    I'd agree, they can usually be found for a fair price. However, I was happy to buy mine new since I knew what I was getting. Can't complain about the quality or performance, either. :)

    Tire Tech, for street and road course best for cheap

    http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Yokohama&tireModel=AVS+ES100 These are the tires that I have on my car now. They're an incredible step up in performance from the previous (BF Goodrich Comp T/A HR4) tires that I had, and they're cheap!! My 245/45/17's ran $112/each when I...

    FMS throttle body, are they any good?

    I use an FRPP 65mm TB, but I do plan to upgrade to a 70mm Accufab at some point.

    Xenon bulbs, which ones?

    As everyone else has said, for generic replacement bulbs, the Sylvania Silverstars are the way to go without a doubt. They're all about producing more visible light and making the night brigher -- As opposed to just tinting/coloring the bulb in order to achieve a different color.

    Anyone using stock CC Plates with 94-95 spindles?

    I ran SN-95 spindles with the stock CC plates for quite some time without any issue... I did however, updrade to a set of Pro3i units and I couldn't be happier with the results.

    exhuast in GA???????

    Sorry, wasn't paying attention to the air pump question... D'oh. I don't have mine either, and they don't check for it. So, you should be good in that regard.

    exhuast in GA???????

    Yeah, the Bassani does cost more then either the MAC or BBK, but, I feel its quality is superior.

    What comes in the FMS King CObra Clutch kit??

    I've never heard anyone complain about the King Cobra kit, but then again I've never had any complaints about my SPEC Stage 1, either. :) As far as the "Valeo" pressure plate goes, don't worry about it! It's a true quality part (was in the SPEC kit, too) -- It's really the clutch disc that...

    BBK Headers and H Pipe Question????

    I had the same problem on mine after I lowered my car, especially in my apartment complex with the ridiculously large speed bumps we have... It even went so far as to completely rip one of the bolts out at the rear of the X-pipe to the flow tube (right before the muffler). When I went back...

    8.8 rear end cover?? Mac or T/A??

    I'd have to agree with your theory here, sir.

    Is this the same stangnet?

    It does take some getting used to, I'll agree... But, thankfully a couple of other boards I frequent have done this upgrade already. It takes some getting used to, but it is quite nice.
