    Car and Driver Review- 05 Stang vs. 05 GTO

    You want to talk about biased? How about the Car and Driver test between the 03 cobra and the gto? The 03 cobra walked all over the gto and they still gave the 1st choice to the gto. They based this on the newer interior styling and comfort. I am not sure which mag it was, but they tested...

    The official "How fast is it?" thread...

    a lot of you are forgetting that weight has something to do with mph. I saw the one guy saying his 98 formula ran 106 mph. I have about 10 friends with f-bodies and all of theirs weigh in around 3300 lbs. The new mustang is about 3500 lbs. Someone correct me if I am wrong, but isn't it...

    04 GTO vs. 05 GT (From the GTO owner)

    R/T-.085 / .337 60ft-2.16 / 1.99 330-5.878 / 5.807 1/8-8.870 / 8.985 mph-82.67 / 76.73 1000-11.434 / 11.735 1/4-13.593 / 14.046 mph-105.18 / 97.76 If it was a 5 speed I would be willing to bet he missed a gear. 76 mph is a very slow speed for a 8.9 in the 1/8 especially when you...

    Sorry guys but I change mind about AFR 165, I getting TFS Twisted Wedge

    For the price of that you can buy afr 205 and murder the trick flows. IMO if you are going to buy any head with the intentions of having it ported then just go ahead and order them already ported. I think that is what makes afr heads best bang for buck. You basically get a ported head for...

    Sorry guys but I change mind about AFR 165, I getting TFS Twisted Wedge

    The trickflow outflow the 165s by something like 3-4cfm. They have nothing on the 185s though. It is easier for air to move around a 1.90 valve than a 2.02. I am not saying that afrs are better than trickflow, but I am saying if you are going to compare it needs to be afr185s against the...

    Why do Cobras get low MPG?

    Sounds like someone can't keep their foot off the gas. I have a 04 lightning and I get 14 mpg with me getting on it quit a bit. The best I have got is 17mpg and that is city driving.

    Thermostat Install Problems! (researched, but have question)

    Are you sure it is the thermostat housing leaking and not the water pump or the timing cover. My timing cover started leaking in the same spot and I thought it was my housing leaking. If it is the timing cover gasket then it is a good time to put a cam and a new timing chain on.

    How much should I sell my car for

    the reason I am selling is because I bought a lightning and I want to start moding it. Odometer quit working so I don't know how much mileage. I just want to know what other people have sold similar moded cars for.

    How much should I sell my car for

    I am thinking about trying to sell my car but I don't know how much to ask for it. It is a black 5 speed 95 GTS. Interior is in good shape. The out side needs a paint job because ford paint sucks and it is starting to oxidize. I don't really want to try and sell it on ebay because I think I...

    Can I beat my buddy?

    the stock 99 and up mustangs around hear all run like 8.9 for the 5 speed and 9.1 for the automatics. It took me alot of mods to be able to beat them in the 1/8. Even after that I never really pulled on them till I bought a set of heads.

    where to mount my MSD

    No, I have a 95. It just didn't look like I had clearance when I held the box there. I was not sure about screwing to the plastic either. I didn't think it would hold.

    where to mount my MSD

    I see you both mounted it in the same spot. What did you use to mount it and have you had a problem with it falling off or the screws coming loose? I thought about mounting there but I was worried that I couldn't get to my clutch adjustment. It also worried me that I might hit the wiper motor.

    where to mount my MSD

    I was going to relocate my battery and mount the msd there, but after reading the rules I decided not to do that. I would really like to mount it in the engine bay, but I can't find a place with enough room to mount it. Let me know where you have your msd mounted.
