    Bad vibration at 3000 RPM's and up

    I had the same issues as OP. All it was was a $120 balancer. Replaced. Car was happy again.

    Nitrous Hurt My Car...again!

    I was out driving my car like an idiot and I sprayed a 75 shot on a very hot day in June. Right after, I noticed my car was vibrating the steering wheel and shifter badly under acceleration and even a little at idle. The car seems to have full power and drives fine other than the vibration...

    Is This Et Slow For My Mph?

    Manual. TKO-600. Any insight on setting up the adjustable suspension? I also want to mention I'm no running on sleeks or anything, just street trim. I've also read that when running on drag radials you don't necessarily need to do a huge burnout and launch at 4000 RPM. Is learning the sweet...

    Is This Et Slow For My Mph?

    Can you guys give it to me straight and tell me if this ET is slow for my MPH? I'm running on MT ET Streets and/or Nitto NT05's. This run was with a 125 shot. Also, I have adjustable shocks and struts. When drag racing how should I set them up? Stiff or loose on certain wheels? I'm a newb at...

    How's This For A Long-block?!?!

    Okay, I've seen for $13000 using my friend Google and many, myself included already have the required missing parts. i.e., 351 based upper and lower intake manifold. So even for those that don't, let's figure $14000. Still, what this motor has out of the box and potential for growth is...

    How's This For A Long-block?!?!

    Naturally, we all want our cars to be faster, so while at the Norwalk NMRA event I happened to stumble into the Ford Racing tent and saw this bad boy. Brand new released for 2013, all aluminum block and heads. It got me thinking, $13000 for a pretty much bolt on 2013 Shelby GT500 killer with...

    Building A 331 Stroker.......advice

    True enough. I should've said, "be in front of". For at least 4-5 years I was easily in front of new Mustang GT's with my car. Not so today with the new Coyote 5.0's

    Building A 331 Stroker.......advice

    Believe it or not, there aren't to many changes you need to do if you're staying EFI. Trust me, I have a nice DSS 331 motor, but in 2013, 400 HP doesn't seem all that much. If I were to buy a 351 based long block, all I'd need to change is the intake. Everything else will work; injectors...

    Building A 331 Stroker.......advice

    If you want to make power and keep up with Coyote 5.0's...start with a 351 based platform.

    Suspension Benefits of Tubular K-Member and Flaming River Kit?

    First off, I want to thank everyone for their input. Based on everyone's responses, its benefits for a DD are split down the middle. Now I'm wondering if the performance dollar is just better spent on new heads and cam for a 95% weekend warrior street driver. It's just a lot of money to spend...

    Suspension RW - 398 HP / 411 FT.LBS, Are Subframes Needed on SN95?

    I'm primarily a 79-93 Fox body guy, but my wife has an '04 blown GT and was wondering do these cars need subframe connectors like the Fox body does when you hit this kind of power? I'm concerned more about body twist and flexing than her getting a good 60'. Thanks guys!

    Suspension Benefits of Tubular K-Member and Flaming River Kit?

    Well, I'm going to have to motor out of the car and wanted to do a k-member and manual rack to clean up the engine bay and reduce weight. The car is going to be an occasional show and strip car. I've seen some restomods with this setup and other than great looks, was wondering what other...

    Engine Top End Tune Up - Need Advice

    I'm close to making some purchases on the top end rebuild. I'm in for the custom cam and MAF upgrade but I'm still undecided on the heads. How mush power is there to be had with a head upgrade and is it worth the money? I'm looking at the AFR 195 Renegade heads, but it's just factoring the...
