hey all how you guys doing? I am making this post for some opions on what y'all think about the problem I am having.
91 mustang gt with a brand new borg Warner t5 world class. Firewall adjuster, bbk double hook quadrant. Had bbk clutch cable I installed a ford.
But I have to have the cable adjust very very tight just to get into gear and it still feels like it's not getting enough throw. I've tried both hooks on quadrant, making cable so tight it took two of us to do it. But almost seems like a bent throw out bearing fork.. or something else. Cable super tight and it still catches right off the floor, but doesn't fully release til all the way released.
Trans is brand new, maybe 3000 miles on it. Seller gave us a new in box throw out bearing retainer. I'm guessing he knew there was an issue but didn't want to admit it. Changed trans fluid and was nice and pink with no metal at all. But the clutch does not fully disengage no matter how I adjust the cable... maybe bad pilot or other bearing? anyways sorry for the long book to read, any comments would be great!
My brother bought a 1991 mustang gt that is a 93 cobra clone. And it was put together very well, flawless paint, interior upgrades. corbeau Front seats, 03/04 cobra rear seats. Was an auto converted to manual with a t5. Full bolt on car with bbk headers,catless xpipe super 44 flowmasters, msd billit distributor, msd coil, cold air intake with upgraded bbk airflow meter (stock 19lb injectors) edelbrock intake manifold, bbk 70mm tb and spacer, underdrive pullies.... ect.. too much to list.
I installed 373's in the rear end (had auto diff with 2:73's) and car is pretty quick and runs great! On of the best parts is it came with a smog cert that was just a few days old. Nice since it's far from passing smog! And our counties we live in, in cali require no smog. Only on transfer of ownership. He was Asking 7500 I gave him 6k even.
Aside from clutch issue it runs great, 160k miles on chassis.
I'll upload some pix
