    VT 1's on headswapped

    Is anyone running the VT 1's in their 96-98 PI swapped stangs? Reason for asking being that we dont have the same dished pistons and was unsure about possible PTV contact. Also, if you had the PI's and switched could you feelthe difference; worth it? Thanks

    BBK LT's finally on, now some concerns

    I understand people say dont use locktite on header bolts, especially on aluminum heads, but that is just so they will come loose later. I dont plan on taking headers on and off all the time and i dont think other people do either, so the locktite is extra insurance for the bolts. Besides...

    BBK LT's finally on, now some concerns

    tokico d-specs or bilsteins?

    have d-specs I have had by d-specs for almost a year now. In my opinion they are a very good quality product. However, the only complaint I have is that even on their softest settings the ride is still pretty stiff, I would venture to say harsher then stock. I got them primarily for drag...

    Is this a good deal?

    I have a chance to snag a 96 cobra engine with trans wiring harness and computer for $2700. It has 80,000 miles on it, but would rebuild it before I do anything with it. To me it sounds like a good deal. What do you guys think?

    Header bolts loosening?

    Answer to threadlocker I used the stage 8 bolts myself wi th threadlocker (Red-highest strength.) The stage bolts seem hard to start threading in the aluminum heads, and no I was not cross threading. So for assurance I put on threadlocker. With threadlocker there is blue and red. Blue is the...
