    Anyone know this engine bay.

    Always wondered what happened to Oink...I remember the turbo new edge he was doing as a close clone/match to a rare saleen in the looks dept with a turbo under the hood. His red SN was the stuff of legend as far as bringing the bay together. Hope all is well and like said he did not come off...

    The End Of An Era

    Congrats on the sale, I keep going back and forth myself on keeping or selling. Most of the "old timers" are long gone or rarely post. Enjoy the fairlane.

    Thinking About Replacing The Stereo Head Unit With An Android Tablet

    Cool idea, several years ago I was thinking about building a audio PC. A few weeks ago I remembered that idea and thought of tablets. Nice to see someone doing it. With radio's having USB inputs now, will it not work to run the player via the USB? The Sync system in our Fusion works via...

    Engine to chassis ground...

    For what it is worth the ground was probably removed when they swapped to solid mounts. The engine to chassis ground is from the drivers side frame rail to the drivers side motor mount stud. The wire is very close to the oil filter. Have you checked for a short or large draw?

    This old Trailer Project thread

    BTW-I am jealous of the trailer. I am wanting to get a small-ish trailer to haul random big things around like a bike, random car stuff, and the like. A car trailer would be awesome if I had something to also pull it with. The wife wants a Toyota FJ Cruiser so at least it can tow...

    This old Trailer Project thread

    Looks good so far but I would think you need some kind of X brace in the new portion at least and at best 3 sets of x braces in each square section now that it does not have a center I beam. It looks like a whole lot of room to flex.

    Hot Rod Power Tour 2012

    I am thinking about taking the 5th off and meeting up at the Gateway Motorsport Park that is 20min or so away from me and driving with the group for a few hours then turning around. I cant really do a couple of days as the beginning of the month will be nuts work wise and in the middle of July...

    95 Mustang GT...How Much Timing?!

    Global is the exact same thing as doing it with a timing light. Are you on any of the tuning forums? Its been years since I was on them but I would search for our strategy and look at timing changes. Then you will be able to follow what others have done to setup your tables so that under WOT...

    95 Mustang GT...How Much Timing?!

    another vote on not doing it global. Our EEC has a good bit of timing while in mid load cruise (EGR still on). Adding global can cause a ping/knock at this mid load situation. IIRC timing at mid load with the EGR kicking in is around 40*. This is also why if the EGR is removed and not turned...

    People who have powdercoated front accessories come in

    I had my brackets coated silver along with my explorer upper intake. I also had my alt. powder coated chrome. This was about 4yrs ago or so now. Not an issue with the coatings or parts. I drove it round trip to visit a bud about 2hrs away in July, drove it on the odd nice day, and for about the...

    Anybody here running the Ford Racing M5400A (or Bullitt) suspension kit?

    I have bullitt springs/shocks/struts but still have the factory sway bars (energy suspension links and bushings though). I am happy with it. The rest of my suspension is budget performance as well with 03 cobra front A-arms, 99-04 v6/GT twin piston calipers, UPR (I know but for $199 what can...

    Racing Shop Vacation

    Those shops are insane... The father-in-law is a snap-on franchise owner for over 30yrs now. About 2000 or so several of the franchise owners along with snap-on went to DEI (back when Jr was still there) and several other shops they sponsored. They also hit up the top fuel team and they got...

    Head Swap Build Thread: And other Improvements

    I would try a tap of the same size to clean the threads out first before jumping to the next size bolt. If I ever pull my upper/lower intake off I will be looking to convert to some kind of stud setup. I had to tap my lower (were upper mounts) as 2 bolts one at the very front and one at the...

    Another Side Project, Anyone like Jeeps?

    when they killed the 4.0 and went with all dodge designed and produced parts jeep died too IMHO. The 4.0 and auto is a really rock solid combo. Its same type of trans used in the auto supra's of the day. IIRC it was called an AW4, if that is the auto the 4 popper has that should be good to...

    Another Side Project, Anyone like Jeeps?

    I am wanting to pick up a 97-99 Cherokee to replace our ZX2 to have a 4 door 4x4 that can haul a trailer. Mostly need another 4 door as a ZX2 and a baby seat (when time comes) will not work for us. FUggin zx2 seats require you to have 3-4 arms/hands to access the rear seat. The wife wants a...
