    Post Your Car Websites!

    I know there was a thread like this a while back, but I couldn't find it. Anyway, I just finished my Mustang site and felt like showing it off a bit since my friend's don't care, haha. http://www.bluecappro.com/mustang/ Post up your sites and I will add them to my links if I haven't...

    Question: Powder Coat vs Clear Coat

    I'm buying a polished throttle body soon but I don't really want to maintain the polishing. The first thing that came to my mind was to paint it clear so all I have to do is spray it down with the rest of the engine bay when I clean. Can you get some powder coated clear? Will the powder coat...

    Just Went to the Track - Gears are Great!

    Yeah it's another one of those "I just went to the track." threads but I figured I'd share my results for anyone who cares. I was out at Mission tonight with my dad and a friend. Since I had been there last I have added 3:73s, FRPP Shorty Headers and rebuilt my Trac-Lok. I have street tires, I...

    Code 29 - Anything Limping?

    Finally got the car feeling better. Pulled the codes, got a 29 on the memory scan - no reading from the VSS. I am pretty sure this is because I screwed up my speedo gear install and I have a new one waiting to go in. What I want to know is what problems does a non functioning VSS cause? I am...

    Anyone a Programmer? Wheel Chooser!

    A lot of people ask for advice on wheels. We were discussing this in another thread and I figured I'd start my own to see if it can get attention. I made up a basic picture of what the program might look like. It should be able to allow users to add different cars and wheels to choose from...

    Gauge Cluster Clear Plastic Cover - Need One

    Had my dash apart for heater core change. My dad was moving some of the parts out of the rain and broke my clear gauge cover. '90 and up style. How much do these run new from Ford or from a junk yard? I'd rather try new first because I want one in really good shape. Thanks.

    I am wanting to replace this, but need to order a new one first. I know there are first gen and second gen air bags for these cars, but I don't know if the different parts are compatible. I also know that the part number describing the actual piece is 14A664. I mention the compatibility...

    Rebuild vs Crate Motor

    Hey everyone, I've just finished some suspension stuff and was talking with my dad about what to do with my engine. I was originally planning to rebuild my engine with this and that, but knowing that things constantly break in these cars and that I'm pretty short tempered, my dad suggested a...

    Polishing Stainless Steel - NEED HELP!

    Okay, here's what happened. I just ordered some stainless steel headers today, but I think I ordered the wrong ones. Because I didn't do some research and some weird pictures were up, I bought headers with a natural stainless steel finish. Turns out that natural stainless steel is ugly as hell...

    Need Help With Speedo Gear - Won't Fit!

    Just putting white 23 tooth speedo gear in the 93 AOD. It doesn't seem to fit down far enough to allow the safety clip in. Is this normal, or should I drill out a small bit (2mm) of the inside of the gear to make it fit? Also, I broke the bolt that hold the assembly to the...

    Motorcycle Helmet OK for Crash Helmet @ Track?

    I'm not going fast enough to have to wear a helmet myself yet, but I'd like to take a couple friends down the track with me soon. I was looking at crash helmets and they're a bit expensive, but my friend has a motorcycle helmet I could borrow. I just want to know, are these the same things...

    Mixing Urethane and Rubber...

    I just picked up a suspension kit from Ford. The springs I got actually came with rubber lower isolators. I was going to order urethane lower and upper bushings from MM, but now I only need the uppers. Will mixing urethane and rubber hurt anything? Will the rubber parts chew up faster than...

    Airbag Troubles - Is it Broken?

    I just finished changing out my steering rack. While I was taking it out and putting it back in, obivously, the steering shaft got moved around and pulled on a bit. Now that I start the car back up, the AIRBAG light is flashing. I unhooked the battery for an hour and tried again, still...

    A Question About Bushings. Please Help!

    I'm in the process of doing a 5-lug swap, so I figured I'd do some suspension work at the same time. I am getting FRPP Bullitt suspension kit, so I think I will need to get bigger mounting bushings for the front sway bar. Is this correct, or could I squeeze the larger bar through the stock...
