It's been a few years since I've been on here. May as well show what I've been up to. Got fairly heavy into racing. Love my notch still and always a work in progress. Sold the 96, have to update my sig. A few crappy pics. My buddy's car.

Hey guys, my car is running like crap. It is missing huge and I can only keep it running by reving it above 2000rpms. I've cleaned the distributor cap and rotor, changed plug wires, changed plugs, checked injectors (no leak down). Fuel pressure is 39#'s at the rail. My A/F gauge is showing 10:1...

Holy Ghost town Batman!! Wow, nobody around anymore to even pimp my ride to. Anyways. Here's some pics. She's so close to lifting the wheels. Wrinkles the tires pretty good though now. Different combo coming over the winter. Low compression, small cam, and no boost blows. Could be real scary :D...

Ok guys I need some advice. I've built an 88 Notchback Mustang as a street/strip car. It is becoming more strip than street lately. Currently it has a 408 Windsor based motor with a Dart Block and some TFS R CNC Race heads and TFS Box R intake. I'm at a cross roads. I've built the car for boost...

Hey guys haven't been here for a while but is anybody running a Mickey Thompson ET Street Radial or ET Street Radial 2 on their stang? I'm selling my 96 but the tires are destroyed on it. I had Nitto 315/35/17's on it but they suck. I want to take her to the track a few more times before she...

Well the track photographer took a liking to my car at our track. She posted some pics on the track website. Didn't have a good day. Had troubles getting the line lock to hold in the burnout box. I think I might have pushed the button before pumping up the brakes. Anyways, no decent runs to even...

Well went out to shake out the bugs in the car on Sunday and the track photographer took a liking to the car and put it on the track website. Got one cool shot even though the car is tracking real bad in the burnout box when my line lock wouldn't hold. Never got a real pass, car over heated...

Well had the car on the dyno on Thursday. Mustang Dyno. I went in expecting low numbers but not quite as low as i got. Here's the combo, you see where all the power is being lost. Dart Block 408 TFS-R CNC Ported Heads TFS Box R Intake 8.5:1 Compression Small Custom Cam to keep car...

Here's an awesome link I found if you are looking for head flow numbers. Take it for what it's worth but looks like good info. Almost every head imaginable. Ford Head Flow Data and Specs I'm happy with my choice of heads now over AFR's after seeing the comparables.

We swapped a C6 Tranny (3 speed auto w/transbrake) into my 88 Notch and mated it to my 408 over the winter. I just took the car out of the shop on Monday to bring it home. When I drove it through the parking lot and shifted into second gear the car totally locked up, wheels totally stopped...

As some of you may know last years project was to get a 408 into the 88 notch. I also got the vinyl "paintjob" sponsored by a buddies shop. I know the purests around here hate the body kit and I did at first but it has actually grown on me now. This winter I've gone full meal deal with the car...

Just trying to see if anyone has a line lock installed in their fox. How much of a pain is it. My master cylinder has three lines coming off of it. I am assuming the one near the rear of the master is for the rear brakes. Any suggestions on teeing the front brakes to go to the line lock...

Hey guys, I just got some weld 15x10 prostars and need to know if they will fit. I am quite sure they will but what size rubber can you put on them? The car has no exhaust and i'm going to take off the quad shocks because I have Lakewood traction bars and Maximum motorsport lower control arms...

Hey guys I'm just getting the goods I need together for a 5 lug swap for the rear but i am staying with drums for now. I'm going with 5x4.5x4.5 pattern and backspacing. I am assuming that is what the 94-95 GT's came with. Can I just slap some 94-95 GT drums on or will Ranger drums fit also? What...

Hey guys, doing a 5 lug swap on the fox and want skinnies to go up front. What size do i need? I've got 15x10's out back. What will fit over the brakes in the front? What's the offset/backspacing up front? I have Weld Prostars for the back so that's what I want for the front just need to know...

Hey guys if I do a 5 lug swap with disc brakes from a 95 can I still fit a 15" Weld Prostar Rim? Anybody done it? Issues?

We just put a C6 into my fox and swapped out the t-5 and now the car won't start. We have the clutch pedal switch but what is the second part of the harness connected to the clutch pedal switch? There are two sets of wires on it and just wondering if this is what is causng our troubles. Anybody...

Well it's time to get rid of the 96 or retire her from racing at least. Here's my new toy. It's got a Dartblock 408 which we built over the winter. Some of you may have seen her in the 5.0 section. She runs pretty strong N/A, best run of 12.51 so far with low compression and stock tranny...

Finally got some video of the Fox. Car is running strong. Trying not to bag her. Shift light is set for 5600 and rev limiter set to 5800. This isn't a great pass but only one I have. Can't keep the tires hooked off the line so I have to launch off idle. Got to weight the car. She weighs 3009#'s...

Was just a time trial run at an NHRA event. Granny shifting and short shifting, wasn't a great run but the only one I have on vid. Clutch is shot. Time to put the C6 in i guess. 88Coupevid.flv - Video - Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting
