    Smokin 4.6

    I have a very strange thing happening with my 99 GT. If I take a hard, very hard left hand turn, at full throttle, it looks like the car is on fire. Blue somke (oil smoke) comes from everywhere. It looks like I need a ring job. This does not happen in any other situation. I can be going...

    Has anyone installed and used one of the G-Tech Pro RR units on a 4.6 liter GT?? I'm thinking of buying one, but have heard that they have problems with the RPM sensing system. Len

    HELP!!!! Changing brake pads under time constraint...stuck!!

    Dont gring off the bumps. They are locators. There is an inside and an outside pad for each side of the car. They have to go in the right location to work properly. If you look, you should have two pads with the bumps and two without. Make sure you put them in the right location. Len

    those w/ the T-45 and 4.10 gears COME IN!!!!!

    111 at 6000 rpm sounds about right. I've never actually watched the speedo @ 6000 rpm in 4th gear, but my trap speed in the 1/4 is about 103 and the tach is at about 5600. Could be your tire size. What size tires do you have on the back and what size rims are they on? Len

    HELP!!!! Changing brake pads under time constraint...stuck!!

    If you look very close, you will see, just under the rubber boot, a lock nut. Put a wrench on the locknut to keep it from turning and you should be able to loosen the caliper bolts. Len

    Anderson Cams

    Has anyone installed a set of Anderson cams in their 2v 4.6? N22's or F22? DEZ racing told me that they could get 30hp from a set of Anderson cams and a custom tune. Does this sound reasonable? I presently have 265 HP at the wheels of my 99 GT without nitrous or a blower. Trying to get close to...

    a few 99 gt questions (mostly tire and rims)

    Be very carefull. I have a 99 GT LE with the stock wheels (17X8) and tires (245-45) up front. I put in a Roush sway bar, which is about 1/8" larger in diameter than the stock unit and if I go hard over with the wheel there isn't more than 1/16" clearance between the tire and sway bar. If you're...

    Hood Scoop

    It's a 99 LE. I guess I'll just have to use a little brute force to peal it from the tape. Thanks for the info. Len

    Hood Scoop

    Does anyone know how to remove the hood scoop from a GT. There are two bolts on the underside of the hood. I removed them both, but the scoop won't budge. Did I miss a fastener somewhere? There appears to be a sealant between the scoop and the hood. Is that all that holds the scoop besides the...
