Ok, so first off please don't flame. Been researching for days and my head is swimming. I'm building up a 5.0L from a 96 Explorer. Completely tore down and getting refreshed at the machine shop to a 347 stroker. This motor is intended to go into my 67 Mustang that has a 289/C4 combo in it now...

I'm getting ready to do the Shelby drop on my Stang this coming weekend. I'm also going to replace the strut rod bushings. To prep, I started spraying PB Blaster on the adjustment points. Something odd I noticed is the tie rod adjusters are bottomed out (screwed together) on the driver side and...

I was looking on TireRack for a wheel\tire package. On choosing the VN515 Torq Thrust II's the options are 17x7 at 0mm(zero) offset or 17x8 at -11mm offset or 4" on both. I was wanting to run 235/45-17 all around. Researching this online everyone is saying 4.5" offset. Talking with TireRack they...

Hey fellow Forum readers. I'm sure there are threads on this but wanted to get a fresh response on upgrading the engine. I just bought this lovely jewel and am looking to upgrade it. The car has a stock 68' 289 that was rebuilt back in 2004 and has about 30k miles on it. The tranny is a C4...

Ok, got my T-56 installed today in my 2003 GT (finally!) What I have left over: Stock 3650 (20k miles) - Make offer (I have to be honest, it was starting to make noise when you would set at a stop light in neutral. Shifted fine though) Stock 3650 Cross Member - $25 (Will throw in with...

Ok here's the deal. I'm currently at around 500hp at the motor. Can't really go any further on the stock block and rotating assembly so I am looking the pull the current motor and upgrade. My goal is 800rwhp. I will have about $10k to play with which will include shop labor at $65 an hour. I...

I noticed every once in a while I have to go floor board diving and bend my gas pedal back out. It is attached with a thin wall u-groove channel that bends very easy. I can tell when it gets bad because I can tell I'm not getting full pedal travel (Full Power) I reach down and pull it back...

I was cleaning my car out the other day and sweeping out the floor boards and noticed my gas pedal was twisted. Looking closer I found the pedal attached to a thin u-groove metal channel. I reached in and literally straightened it out with my hand. I went to my local track this past wednesday...

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ok guys, I would really be interested in what your programs are set at. I'm having an issue with a couple of things. 1. My speedometer is off. I have 4.10's installed but have to use the highest setting (4.56)...

Ok, I have a spare cluster laying around and would like to do a indiglo kit. There are a lot of vendors out there (kind of like the after market headlights!) so choosing one seems like a chancy deal to say the least.. I would really be interested in what you have and pics if possible. Any...

Just got my car back from the Cam install (XE274H). Wow what a difference. The tune was tweaked to a max of 440rwhp. Saved that one for aggresive street use. Backed off the timing a couple of degrees and is now at 426rwhp 417rwtq for the daily driver tune. This is up from the pre-install...

Ok, I think I want to add a little zip to the car and a nice thumpy idle. The thing is I already have a P1SC Procharger install and really love the whine at red lights. But I want my cake and eat it to. I would really like to have a nice lumpy idle and increase the power a little. I still...

Well, I went over to the Fun Ford Weekend and ran True Street. I was trying to make a run for the 12.00 win but I wasn't sure since I had never ran my car with the SC or MT Streets. Wow what a difference the MT Streets made. I ended up about 2 out of the trophy with a 12.33 average on Saturday...

Ordered new fuel pump, get the right thing? Ok, I just ordered a GT40 Supercar Fuel Pump upgrade from RPM Outlet (Part #542552) and was expecting a Ford GT Fuel pump. What I got in the box was a Walbro pump with part #4G7V-9350-CA. What am I missing here? IS this the correct pump and since...

Ok, I know this has been done but I wanted to get some feedback on what people think. I've got about a $4k budget to work with and have been researching for quite some time now. My installer/tuner is ready and waiting to order parts as soon as I can figure out what to do. As you will see in...

Ok guys, I will have about $2500 to get as many upgrades as possible over this winter. See my sig for what I have to date. The horsepower bug has really bitten and I want to up the ante. Right now there is three things I want to accomplish. Heads, Cams and clutch install. My installer wants...

Will a 2003 SVT Cobra Instrument Cluster fit in my 2003 GT? If so is there anything I would need to do to make it work. It has 'zero' miles on it. Of course I know the boost gauge won't work, but I'm thinking it would be a nice upgrade since I like the white face gauges and the SVT logo. Any...

Wouldn't ya know, I just got a 2003 RED GT (my 4th mustang) that only has 5k miles on it and is completely stock :) . Wow, been awhile since I've had a stock stang. Anyways, one of the 1st mods I want to do is get the rear gear changed to a 4.10 and the local tranny shop quoted me "$500-$600"...
