    should i remove my cats?

    I say keep the cats. But if you do remove them be sure to save them. Emissions testing came here with no warning and I sure with I had saved the parts I took off the old Pinto back then.

    EFI to CARB. Any input welcome

    You will still fail the visual inspection if your area has it.

    Modified Mustangs & Fords gives us the finger again.

    Same here, I feel ripped off big time. They must have known about the upcoming change yet they were still pushing their special price for a 2 year renewal. They won't be getting any more of my money.:notnice:

    Crashed my stang the first day I got it

    Sorry to hear about your wreck. Be thankful nobody was hurt. Call it an expensive learning experience.

    Help me buy my first NEWER style mustang!!

    If you want to run it on a track get the Cobra. You will have better brakes and independent rear suspension along with the stronger block. Good luck with your new project.

    2000 GT - Motor randomly dies with Heater set on Defrost.

    More info: AC was working and all belts were fine when the surging problem started. I posted it in tech here and asked for help from whoever had acually had this problem and fixed it. A few people said to just buy a new IAC but I never got an answer from anybody with actual exprience. So before...

    What is exactly the point of Trac Con!

    I just make a habit of turning off the TC right after I buckle the seat belt. We don't have proper storm drainage on the streets here, we have cement troughs about 3 feet wide and an inch deep that channel the water along the streets. So every time you pull out onto the major streets the tires...

    Car dies after 25-30 minutes of use. Help needed.

    I had a similar issue with a 69 Camaro I used to own. The alarm system was randomly cutting off power to the ignition. I would remove the alarm system and trace down the wiring involving it and the kill switch. When this thing shut the engine off it would also kill power to the starter so it...

    Staggered or not?

    One downside of having a wider tire on the back: your rear end can start to hydroplane before you notice anything in the steering wheel. I wrecked a 67 Camaro this way when I was young and foolish.

    Hey there! New guy with questions... if anyone has the time.

    I would check/replace all of the bushings in front and rear suspension.

    is it really this slow?

    I would find out exactly what you have in the engine first. Pull a head off and measure bore and stroke to see if it is really a 331. While the head is off identify what brand and size it is. Back when I was younger and dumber I bought a used 69 Camaro the owner claimed had a high performance...

    I'm embarrassed

    I believe that Ford originally planned to put that twin turbo v-6 in the Mustang to help them meet the average fuel economy goals set by Uncle Sam. Now it may put out more power than the current Mustang v-8 but to many Mustang buyers it will not sound right. We like the sound of a v-8 so that...

    how do you guys drive it in the snow?

    I am driving a 2000GT convertible year round here in Colorado. Like you I don't want to pay insurance on an extra car, but also don't have room for a beater. I put the Blizzaks on the stock wheels (got 245/45 17's though I hear a skinnier tire is better) and got some Bullitt wheels for summer...

    Who makes the best winter tires for ponys?

    Blizzak has been great for me. Just be sure to get 4 of them so you can steer and stop too.

    About to buy a mustang, good buy?

    I would be worried about all of the missing emissions parts. Here in Colorado our smog checks keep getting stricter. Many older cars have gone to the junkyard or had to leave the state because you cannot find the emissions parts anymore to make them legal. Best to get an unmolested car so you...

    New heads......

    Sounds like a good plan.

    Car bra + Mach 1 chin spointer for 94-98 stang?

    I would advise caution as dirt and water can collect between the car bra and body causing corrosion, especially if you do any winter driving on sanded/salted roads. And if you get one make sure it fits tight, loose fit can move around and sandpaper your paint off.
