    How bad did I screw it up?

    Not to Hijack here, but my car had a very similar situation happen this morning. I drove home last night, everything fine but I was pretty low on gas. When I started it up this morning, it sputtered and died, so I figured I was almost out of gas. I made it to the gas station (it died like 3...

    My 351W Needs More Power!! Any Windsor Experts??

    Nope, no emissions here in good ol' nebraskey. I just got rid of my cats too, I consider myself to be one of natures natural checks and balances from all the people that are going green. Good info though, I still have a month or so before I'm going to consider bringing out the checkbook...

    My 351W Needs More Power!! Any Windsor Experts??

    Oh, I dunno, I'll probably be getting about a grand back for my tax refund, and I don't really see why I wouldn't want to spend most of that plus another $500 or so in slush money I've got, so around $1500 maybe? Problem is, I don't have the time or expertise to do much of the tooling myself...

    My 351W Needs More Power!! Any Windsor Experts??

    Where's a good place to get a good custom cam and what type of $$ am I looking at for that? For gears, the 3.55's already seem to wrap it out pretty quick, I'm not completely sure I'd want be shifting any more than I already am, unless the intake and cam would help the higher RPM power...

    My 351W Needs More Power!! Any Windsor Experts??

    It's getting closer to summer and I need a little more speed. If you guys read through my sig, you'd probably be able to guess better than I could as far as the power I currently have. I'd prob. guess in the neighborhood of 325 or so ponies, (edit: based on the other cars I've had such as a...

    N00B question on Bumpsteer

    So with the new wheels I've installed a few weeks ago there are several issues regarding steering I wanted to clear up. First off, they are 17x9's in the front with 275's on them. First problem is my steering wheel, which used to be straight, is now tilted about 10 degrees right. The...

    rear seat deletes....

    I've always wondered how ppl did their subs in the back of the seat like that. Do you have a custom box that is connected to the back of the seat? Or did you get free air subs? I have some JL W6V2's that would definately need an enclosure, but I'm not sure the easiest way to mount them and...

    I dumped 'er for my current love...check it out (motorcycle pics)

    Those Xb9's are pretty sexy, my buddy's got one he's been doing some work to and it's a pretty sick bike...but, you can't go wrong with a 94-95. At least you got your yellow beast, so either way you look at it you'll get to have your cake and eat it too.:D

    I dumped 'er for my current love...check it out (motorcycle pics)

    So, I was just flippin through some pics on my computer and thought I'd show you guys what I sold to buy the car I have now. It was an '02 Honda Shadow Spirit 750 I bought with 250 miles bone stock and yellow before I dropped around 3 g's makin it look sweet. Now I know it's a honda, but that...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Well, to the best of my knowledge from what the previous owner told me, I think it's a cobra intake off a 94-95 that's been machined to say 5.8, then painted for looks. Here's a 94 cobra motor, intake looks almost identical to me anyway? I've also taken a few ideas from this post and...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Yeah, i've seen your posts around for awhile and thinking the same thing. At the moment though, I almost feel my car has more potential for power than it's actually putting out right now. If I had to guess, I'd say i'm probably putting out around 325 to the rear wheels, but I think it's got...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Yeah, it's funny because most cars I see louvers on I don't really like either, i'm just trying to give it a little retro flair. I just put on a set of 351 fender emblems off an older mustang, and with the chin and wheels I think the louvers may look good (although I know many won't like em)...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    I'm not exactly sure about the skirts, but I think the exhaust is a dynamax super turbo setup with custom tips and stuff. Frankly, I've always been a flowmaster guy and have contemplated finding someone to trade me setups (stock skirts + some cash for my skirts plus exhaust setup)

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Well, I wasn't going to mention it if you didn't, but that chin spoiler looks great (i'm sure even better with a new bumper) What's the best/cheapest route for cobra brakes? I know a kit runs around $500, and also know you can piece togeter some reman. and aftermarket stuff for closer to $250...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Athankyou for the kind words. Anyone got any thoughts on the "retro" theme? In addition to the chin spoiler and rear louvers, I was thinking about spray painting my billet grills black and putting a tribar pony emblem on it.

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Here's a pic from a few months back with the stock headlights, no tint, and chrome 18" GT40 wheels, I loved the wheels but they were the wrong offset (for a 2005-2007 I think) so they rubbed a little more than I liked. With the new wheels I only had to flip one quad shock and they fit much...

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    The guy that owned it before me and did most of the mods put those vents on the hood. When I first got it I wasn't completely sure I liked it, but it's grown on me. Plus, i've never seen another one like it so it's scores a few "originality points" with some people.

    Just got car all spiffed up, thought I'd show ya the pics

    Yeah, right now my breaks kinda blow, would it be worth it at all to just do SS brake lines, new performance pads, and some fancy (yet fairly inexpensive) drilled or slotted rotors, or for the money would I just be better off doing the whole fromt 13" cobra kit with calipers and everything?

    Good 'ol Lincoln Nebraska, I'm crossing my fingers that the snow is over, but I'm not so sure that's going to be the case
