    It is a 35th anniversary edition and I totally disliked the badging, so I put on snakes as I like those better than what was on there. But, a couple of weeks ago I received my running pony for the grille delete and I installed GT badging on the front fenders and rear truck. Now it is back to a...

    Well this afternoon I was driving around and had stopped off at the Home Depot. When I came back to my car I got in and started it up. It failed to start and it backfired. So I tried again to start and the same thing happened again. The third time it did start and the CEL came on instantly. I...

    Need Help......cooling Problem

    Sorry bud for not getting back to you, I had a death in the family and had to book to the funeral. That gauge is reading 210. That is too high for my liking. Have you done anything since I last commented on your problem?

    Need Help......cooling Problem

    That is kinda high for my taste, I like to see it around 180-185 at the most. Is the fan you have on the car OEM (1 fan) or is it aftermarket (could be 1 fan or 2 smaller ones). First thing I would look at is the thermostat, a good way to find out what temp is the thermostat is to cool the car...

    The ECM keeps track of your mileage, not the cluster. The check engine light and OD light may need of repair, you could always go to a JY and get a different cluster to see if that fixes it. They are a dime a dozen.

    Need Help......cooling Problem

    Is the ccar really overheating or are you experiencing a bad temp sending unit? Also, I would not go any higher on temp with the thermostat than a 170 temp stat. If the fans are coming on then that is a good sign. But I have read this thread twice and still am not sure if you are really running...

    8.8 Rear Swap

    stangs 8.8's did not go 5 lug until 94 with the new body revamping. So any fox rear will work, I would try to stay within the yrs of 86 thru 93 to make everything easy and no modifications.

    K Member/control Arm Question

    Really it is all about preference and type of driving. UPR and MM both sell a great product respectively. The UPR kit advertises to lose 66lbs over stock vs MM advertising theirs at 40lbs over stock. The MM kit does allow for tire movement forward to give a better road course and track...

    Newedgejay, someone on another forum I belong to had posted your front grille on the forum wondering where that insert came from. Can you tell me where you got the GT emblem grille from? thanks

    Never thought of doing what? I am going to take the Cobras off. I do agree that it is a Fobra wantabe. I have a new set of GT badges coming in for the front fenders. I was not trying to be something it was not, just a different look vs the boring running horse and the god ugly 35th anniversary...

    That would be great if you can locate a nice charcoal center radio bezel with the a/c vents attached and shifter bezel. The only other thing I can think of is a lens for the roof entry light. Mine has the 2 tabs broken off and I have it held in place with double sided tape. The chin spoiler...

    Got my windshield banner in with my nickname that my wife gave me 20 yrs ago. She has never let it go either, I just can not figure that woman out for the life of me. And I have no idea why she insists on calling me GRUMPY either.

    The 3650 went in all the GT's starting in mid year 01. So they are readily available just about anywhere on the cheap. It is a upgrade to your T45.

    Well I got the chin spoiler on, and the mach 1 grille delete on with the Snake in the center. The chin spoiler went on pretty quickly and no problems with alignment. I just marked center of bumper, ad then that point around on each side and then drilled my holes. It came out perfect for being...
