    Solution to Crappy Mustang Headlights

    hope you dont fry anything, I used to have 4 foglights hooked to one switch in a ranger and fried the switch a few times. I think it looks a little cheesy on the stang.

    How hard is cam install?

    a stage 2 or 3 cam will have a agresssive idle, make sure to keep in mind the bigger the cam the more power it will make up top but you will lose more down low. You will also need to upgrade your valve springs and get gears and a tune if you go with a stage 2 or 3 cam. I hear it takes about 5...

    can any N/A stang keep up with a newer vette?

    cams and heads along with all the basic bolt ons should get a mustang gt over 300 hp at the wheels. A C5 probably puts down about 300 at the wheels. Of course it can be done it will just take a lot of work.

    Crappy Looking Headlights

    youre supposed to take headlight covers off at night. I had the same crappy headlights so I just bought some new ones cost about 250 I think for smoked clear(no yellow) I think you just need to turn a screw or two to adjust the headlights check your haynes/chilton manual if you have one.

    Which shocks/struts to use with eibach pro kit

    yeah i think the eibach pro damper kit is over 400 where the mach 1 shocks are under 200. Trying to save money on the shocks so I can afford caster camber plates, an allignment, lower control arms, and maybe the steeda balljoints/bumpsteer kit. Where has everyone found the bullit/mach...

    Which shocks/struts to use with eibach pro kit

    I'm probably gonna go with the eibach pro kit springs and was wondering what are some affordable shocks/struts that are valved correctly for those spings. Will the mach 1 or bullit shocks/struts work well with the pro kit even though they are valved for less of a drop.

    Those of you with the Bullitt Suspension...

    where is the cheapest place to find the bullit or mach 1 tokico shocks/struts. I thought ford parts network ltd had it for 160-180 but I couldnt find them on their site the other day.

    Radar Detectors and License plate cover

    I have a radar detector(cobra) that I bought when I was 16 5 years ago. Still works pretty good, just remember it really only helps to alert you to the presence of cops and only works if they happen to radar the guy in front of you. I've heard of the liscense plate covers reflecting the radar...

    Underdrive Pullies

    the steeda instructions state to use a small amount of silicon or rtv on the keyway slot. Why not just do it if youre going to install them it could possibly save you time and headaches in the future. The mechanic who put mine in almost forgot but I reminded him, no leaks that I know of. BTW...

    25hp for less than $500?

    Im pretty sure you dont have to do a dyno, I have never ever heard of anyone getting 25 rwhp from plenum/cai/tb. I would bet you dont pick up more than 10hp from all 3, the plenum tb should be good for about 5hp on a stock engine. The cold air maybe 5hp at the most, I think I might have got...

    Bad IAC?

    clean the iac if that fixes the problem temporarily you can pick a new one up at napa for $50. When my iac went bad it wouldnt idle when cold unless I gave it gas.

    How many miles was it before your GT had a problem(s)?

    my drivers side window regulator went bad at about 40k, an ignition coil went bad around47k, and my iac around 50k. I bought the car with 33k and it has about 55k now, I've had it for 14 months. That squek in the dash too but I'm not sure if that counts as something breaking.
