    Bad Luck

    Did you order the Spal PWM controller? I've heard that you have to recalibrate that Spal controller (which takes a long time, because you have to bring your engine up to the temps at which you calibrate), every time you disconnect the battery, because it's all electronic (no dial). Someone...

    Mark VIII fan wiring (Q for the pros)

    I'm not a professional car guy, but here's an idea, which perhaps the pros can comment on. I'm currently using a 50 amp type 1 circuit breaker (PN 782-3001) for each of my two radiator fans. Each fan draws 25 amps continuous current at full speed. But, my two flex-a-lite controllers (PN...

    Took 5 tries to get ymyexhaust right..how about you?

    Which Magnaflow mufflers were they? The Magnapacks? Or the straight-through type? 3 tries for me. 0. Started with stock, rusted out, holey mufflers. 1. Flowmaster "Force 2" catback system (3 chamber flows), clamped together with band clamps. Wanted to hear that Flowmaster sound so many...

    Anyone in here know about telescopes?? Advice?

    The width of the main lens is important. The wider the main lens, the better the resolution. This is because of diffraction from the main lens. Also, the wider the main lens, the larger the amount of light that will enter the lens. More light is better. However, because we're on the...

    Need longer clutch cable?

    My mistake. The "OEM" clutch cable that I tried, was the Maximum Motorsports "Universal Ford OEM 1982-04" cable. The MM cable is a bit longer than the Pep Boys and Kragen cables, but it's still pulling the fork about an inch in front of the back of the hole in the tranny housing, if I try to...

    Need longer clutch cable?

    Hello, For some reason, none of the OEM or aftermarket clutch cables seem to be long enough for my 88 LX 5.0L. That is, when I install the cable, the clutch fork is not at the back of the hole in the tranny housing, when my foot is off of the clutch pedal. It's lifted off by an inch or so...

    SN95+ Seat belts in Fox vert

    You're welcome. This belt is so much better than my stock, flopping, loose, slow-to-non-retracting, non-locking belt. I highly recommend it. I also recommend getting the optional hardware installation kit, because it's only $7, even though you can probably re-use all of the stock bolts.

    SN95+ Seat belts in Fox vert

    Update: I received and installed the seat belt from www.GotBelts.com, on the driver side. I didn't realize it, but the kit only comes with 1 seat belt. So I just ordered a 2nd kit, for the passenger side. It fit quite well. However, the buckle loop is too small to buckle to the seat bolt...

    Cowl high pressure area, anyone getting air from there?

    I'm looking at a photo of my engine bay, and I don't see any nice, convenient, large area for a decent-size hole. It looks like there's way more room for a hole in the standard location, the passenger side of the engine bay, near the passenger side fender well. In that photo of yours, it...

    Cowl high pressure area, anyone getting air from there?

    I guess you're talking about getting air through the cowl vent, by cutting a hole in the firewall in front of the cowl area. In other words, take the air that would normally be vented into the cockpit when the "Vent" is turned on, and redirect that air into the engine bay. It seems like it...

    Rear springs question.

    I have those MM LCAs. I have the height adjusted to the maximum suggested height (2 inches above stock), and so far no problems. I've been driving that way for about a week now. Before that, I had them at about 0.5 inches above stock, and drove that way for several months. I wanted the extra...

    Hood Pins

    I hear the same story over and over. A guy works on or looks at his engine, forgets to put the hood pins back on, drives with the hood pins off without realizing it, and his hood flies up when doing 60 mph, damaging lots of stuff. If I were you, I'd put the stock latch back on, because...

    seat belt conversion

    Do you mean the bolt that bolts the buckle onto the tranny tunnel? Is it rusted or broken? Anyway, you may want to try a universal belt from www.GotBelts.com or somewhere like that. I ordered one from www.GotBelts.com, with a 9-inch buckle, 110-inch overall length, and the hardware kit for...

    One piece head lights

    I have those headlights. Each headlight has 4 studs, which are utilized to bolt it onto the car. To adjust the aim, use washers on the studs. The fit is not great. There's a gap underneath the headlight, and at the back edge of the headlight. However, I don't really notice, because the...

    Help - Search - Requiring Multiple Words

    Thanks Hissin50. Yeah, I've read that some people use Google and simply include the word www.stangnet.com as one of their keywords. Maybe I'll just start doing that. I'll also try the other thing you suggested, and try to use rare words.

    Help - Search - Requiring Multiple Words

    Hello, Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I can't seem to perform a search using multiple words, requiring all of the words be present. It seems like I used to just type in all of the words, and it would require that all of the words be present in the thread. Recently, though, it...
