    computer swap

    I have a 97 GT convertible that the ECM got wet in and now the car won't start. Can I swap with any ECM or do I need one programmed to match my VIN so the security chip in the key will work? It's a 4.6 and the original ECM got wet as well, it seems like there might be a cover missing or something.

    overdrive switch

    My 97 GT has an overdrive switch on the shifter (it's an automatic) but it doesn't seem to work. The car is always in overdrive but there are times I need it out of overdrive. Is there a wire that goes to that switch, or might it be a bad switch? If so, how hard is it to change?

    This is the plug I took out after about 1500 or so miles. Do they look OK? I have a S/C so I replaced them with one range colder plugs over this stock one.

    spark plugs with blower

    I need to know what plugs & gap I need to be running on a '97 Saleen with an aftermarket SVO blower running either 6 or 8 lbs of boost. I was told I need a nonprojected plug gapped at .030 to help stop detonation. An Autolite 3935 was suggested.

    paint job in michigan

    I asked a similar question on another Mustang website and got this recommendation. Scott Maples 810-569-0417 He works out of Davison, just east of Flint. I haven't gotten around to checking into his work or anything, I spent my money on the Mustang interior this summer.

    Roush Is this a real Saleen SR 351

    The wheels look similar to the ones on my '97 Saleen , although you guys know more on the details than I do about what car should have what items. A 6 speed transmission too. My '97 is that color blue with a white convertible top, with the silver stripes it's a great combination.

    Roush quad shocks for saleen

    I found the Motorcraft # and got the same shock in a generic brand, the new one was better (stiffer in both directions) than the one I removed. The Mustang GT quad shock is larger than the one on the Saleen. I need to see if the one on the drivers side is bent. I'd like to replace the rear...

    Roush quad shocks for saleen

    I have a '97 saleen with 18" tires/rims, and when I tried to replace the quad shocks on the back with a KYB Gas-A-Just KG4521 they were too big. That shock is what the '97 GT calls for. On the car was a bent Motorcraft F4CZ-4A489-AB I'm not sure if it was bent so it would fit behind the tire or...

    Roush Anyone have pics of Tim S old 96 Saleen Cobra Speedster?

    The shot of the front bumper that shows the reflection of the photographer makes it look like a chrome bumper because it's so shiny. Very nice.

    Roush wheel alignment specs

    Will it matter which year vehicle is being aligned? In other words, will a 97 be different than a 1993?

    Roush So I had a blowout...

    I hope it was just bad luck, I have run over both a screw driver (with week old tires) that went through the sidewall, and a automotive starter bolt through the sidewall on my work vehicle. So who's driving around with their starter hanging by the wires?!?!?!

    How did you get the holes in the carpet where the pins hold the kick panels in place? I couldn't get them lined up quite right.

    Roush carpet replacement

    I tried to do a carpet change in a '92 Mustang convertible, and while I didn't have trouble getting it put in correctly, it was all the trim parts that gave me trouble. Things such as getting the "trees" lined up to hold the kick panels in place. But the 97 looks much easier. Is it? It looks...
