    really starting to think my car is twisted. how to check for car being straight?

    I leveled my Cobra out on some jackstands on a level concrete pad then used plumb bobs hung from various points on the frame/suspension mounting points plotted out on the floor then took measurements front to rear, side to side, and criss-crossed. All measurements are within, or more...

    Added The New 2011 Emblems

    That's the first SN95 I've seen them on that I've liked. Not sure what's different from all the other I've seen but it looks really good. If I had a GT I'd be all over them. It'd be sacrilegious to put those in place of my Cobra's emblems though.

    my new 01 stang, got a couple of question?

    Shifter? Go MGW and don't look back. And install it yourself. It's quite easy and there's plenty of information out there on how to do it if you're unsure.

    I'm repainting my car.....Grabber blue or Orange?

    Is your car a factory Tangerine Orange '96? If so, I'd leave it orange. Those aren't very common.

    Front End Suggestions

    How many miles are on your car? You might want to raise it up and check to see if the play is in the rack or the outer tie rod ends, or both. I can turn my steering wheel with the car on the ground and hear clunking too, but it's not the outer tie rods, it's the rack. And there's 130k on my...

    interior remodel

    Thanks. I was just wondering because I want to do a console delete and I also want to use ACC carpet as I've used them multiple times in the past for older cars and always been happy with it. The console delete will require the carpet to go up past the shifter, preferably up under the dash.

    Intermittent wipers working..... intermittently

    Mine did that a few years ago. Put a new OEM Ford multifunction switch from 5.0 resto and they work great now. The new switch really freshened up the look of the steering column/interior too.

    Got my new wheels!

    I'm really not sure how I feel about those. I love steelies and dog dishes on old musclecars, especially ones that are body color. I'm not sure if that look is working for me on the SN95 though. Some better pics after being lowered and having the center caps put on would help I think.

    Learned a couple things the hard way, pics

    That is awesome! I didn't think I'd see anyone else do that. I am in the process of deleting the console myself. I've had old Mopars without the center console and just love the look/feel of it and the shifter just sticking out of the floor. I'm just having trouble finding bezels for the...

    Mr. Gasket Thermostat 180*?

    That's what I have. Been doing just fine for about 3 years now. I'm sure it'd be fine at the track as well.

    UMI suspension???

    Another thumbs up for UMI here. I've bought UCAs, LCAs, and torque box reinforcement plates from them in the past. Good products, service, and people.

    what size tire should i use on 18x10 fr500 95 gt

    Generally a 295 will be the best fit. I've seen people mount 305 & 315 Nitto DRs on a 18x10 with no problems though since they tend to be more narrow than other tires.

    351 Windsor Help!

    Just to clarify, deck height is the measured distance from crankshaft centerline to the deck of the block, where the heads mount. Not the width of the intake base, if that's what you were thinking.

    replaced dizzy now surging idle

    I had to put a new distributor in my car a few weeks ago and the idle is all out of whack now. I mean, it never idled well in the 3 years I've owned the car, but it's worse now. A lot of times it won't idle. I haven't looked into though yet.

    5.0 Overheating problem

    How many miles are on your car? How's the heater core and heater core lines/hoses? Radiator cap? Serpentine belt tension? Belt routed correctly?

    '11 GT 5.0 badge

    Well this got waayy off track. All I wanted was pics of the new badge on a car. I probably wouldn't even do it, but I was curious. Thanks MysteryMachine. It doesn't look too huge. I really only asked because I have '96-'98 tails on my car and get a million people asking if it's a 4.6 and...
