    Tr-3650 Tailcone Seal Leak

    Hey guys, did a lot of searching but didn't quite find what I'm looking for. Working on getting my Bullitt back on the road and I'm all but certain the rear seal needs changed out on my 3650. I downloaded the Tremec service manual but it wasn't much help, and I couldn't find an illustrated...

    Non-Deep Dish 18x9 Bullitts

    WTF can I get them? Mine are beyond repair (curb rash) and I absolutely despise deep dish wheels up front. Mine have a polished lip but I cant find them anywhere. Help, and stuff.

    Mongoose Owners

    Hey guys, some of you who have been around for a while probably know that I have a mongoose kit on my Bullitt. Unfortunately life smacked me square in the mouth a few years ago and the mustang kind of went to hell. Well I'm doing pretty good now and I'm trying to get the mustang back in...

    Prep for Stering Rack replacement

    So I just ordered a new rack and pinion, should be here in time for the weekend. I'm also going to be replacing my ball joints, A-arm bushings and steering rack bushings while I'm in there. Just wanted to make sure all my ducks are in a row before I start tearing everything apart. Here's...

    Alternator for Mongoose'd Bullitt

    Just got a new alternator for my Vortech'd Bullitt. I didn't even think about it until I installed it and realized there is very little clearance between the alternator and one of the pullies that is part of the blower kit. I mean, you can see there is space between the two but barely. I...

    4.10s or 3.73s, what catback, are long tubes worth it?

    Haha, just kidding F'krs. Knew that title would get your attention though. Actually need some info/advice/help regarding a new 8.8. It's been almost 2 years since I was seriously involved with my car and I swear I've forgotten more about it (and mustangs in general) than I learned in the 4...

    Hey

    havent logged onto ole SN for a long time, thought Id see how my first of many mustang forums is holding up. Is Ambo still around? I saw a street sign named Ambo Ln. around here somewhere and thought about stealing it, but that would be wrong. What about Timmay, is he still the designated...

    F'n Radiator Leak

    So walking back to my car yesterday after lunch I noticed a cute little puddle under the car. I had the queen fire it up, I watched.....nothing. She shut it down, and then I could see/hear it. Little pinhole leak on the side of the radiator. That entire area is corroded to all hell. Knew...

    Mustangs Are Overrated

    A bunch of us went to the track last night. It was hotter as all hell, probably 95* but it felt like 105*, humidity through the roof. Just terrible conditions for racing. Nonetheless, we had this planned for over a month and had a great turnout. As the sun went down conditions became more...

    Great, ANOTHER Noise

    So I was troubleshooting my blower/pulley noise this morning, and after I shut the car off I heard this noise the car has never made before. Sounded almost like a ball bearing that kept spinning around after the motor was off, but after listening to it again its coming from the valve...

    Pulley Noise (I hope)

    About.....2 weeks ago I noticed a slight noise coming from under the hood, so I popped it and it was coming from the blower area. It wasnt too bad, so I did a little searching and thought it may be the typical Vortech gear noise. Well, over the past 2 weeks its gotten progressively worse, so...

    Remflex Passenger Side Manifold-to-Mid Pipe Gaskets

    Hey guys, I know a lot of us have issues with exhaust leaks at this particular connection with aftermarket pipes. I know some of us can get away with using the OE gasket and others just have bad luck with it. Seems to be a crap-shoot. Anyway, after installing my Prochamber with an OE gasket...

    New Headlights.....*sigh*

    After an unfortunate incedent involving my friends Lightning and another friends passenger side headlight, I was able to score a new set with clear corners for half price. (mine were scratched and had condensation :( ) Long story short,......they fit like crap. I wasnt expecting OE quality...

    Roush Shift Handle Installed *Pics*

    Roush sells the handle for $82 and the knob for $35. What a greedy old bastard. I got it used for $45. Looks great, imo and has a road race feel. Not ideal for drag racing, but I'll get a short-throw and make it work. Had to use the stock boot which was too small, but I made it my bitch...
