    Humm pricy but with a warrenty like this I think its dman worth it(driveshaft stuff)

    I have one behind the 460. I was very pleased with their service. I am sure I will brek something else before my driveshaft, but still nice to know they stand behind what they sell.

    Oil pan replacement.

    The oil pan on my 85 has rusted out. Had a pinhole leak in it. When I poked it with a screwdriver it got bigger. The whole pan is pretty rusty and I have a spare lying around so figured I would change it. For those of you that have done it how high did you have to raise the engine to get the...

    1986 notch should i get it???

    I paid $500 for an 85 2.3 manual. Had to patch the gas tank, change the power steering hoses and now there is a hole in the oil pan. Overall it is worth it since it only has 86,000 miles and the 2.3's are stout. How is the underside? Torque Boxes? If it really is rust free. I would buy it. I...

    Massachusetts NEEDS a Dragstrip!

    That is damn good. I have a buddy who supposedly off roads there. Have yet to see any actual evidence though. He is somewhat of a story teller.

    Massachusetts NEEDS a Dragstrip!

    Great idea, but I am doubtful it will actually happen. Too much paperwork and legalities involved. Sucks

    Where can I buy stereo Faceplates.

    It is for an Alpine CDE-7870. There are some on E-Bay. After looking through my options it may be better for me to just buy a new head unit.

    Question about engine codes

    Unplug the vacuum line going to the EGR and see if the engine runs better. I had this problem on my pickup (302 engine). Your EGR may be clogged or stuck open.

    Early 80's stock turbo mustangs(post pics)

    You could swap motors, but IRC the inline 6 had a different k-member. I like the looks of the 4-eyes. Just picked up another 85 LX with the 2.3 and 4-speed. Now to find a turbo engine.

    302/460 dilemma....poll included

    Haven't voted yet. I swapped in a 460 into my stang. Wish I had done a little more research. But it is/was all worth it being able to light the tires anytime with an engine with over 250,000 miles. Swap parts and the time to swap it can be a pain. You may be better off with keeping the 302...

    88TC swap into an 85 Mustang

    I will be looking for one, but for the time the 4 speed will have to do. If I pick up a 87-90 harness will I have to do any rewiring or is it a simple plug and play?
