    Imports rule?

    If imports rule, then why are they offing a mustang for the grand prize? the fast and the furious thing was hot a round here for a while, but it's sorta dieing away now. Not a lot of 6ft wings and canon barrel mufflers anymore.

    So I bought the wife a new...

    The problem with the caliber, is no matter how fast it is, it still looks like an suv. The neon was much more sportier looking.

    New Lincoln MKS

    I read in left lane that the 2010 mustang GT will have a new 400 hp and 400 foot pound 5.0 V-8 that will get 15% better mpg than the current 4.6. There are mustang 5.0 test mules running a round Detroit as we speak. Just because an engine makes more hp or has a few more cubes doesn't mean it...

    Specific Intake question

    We don't like the steeda intake, we think it sucks, it's just not pretty enough ha ha. (just kidding) A lot of us go with C&L because of the tune package, it's offered from benspeed and bama that alot of us deal with I haven't heard anything bad about steeda persay.

    Shelby GT question

    My dealership had only one shelby GT, vista blue with silver stripes. It lasted only 2 days and it was gone. They didn't have any trouble selling it. At least the shelby GT 500 they had lasted a week. It's a small town dealership, not a mega dealer, that must make a difference.

    ffrp hotrod cams w/ procharger?

    I don't know what cams to go with, I'm reading what you guy's say about the hot rods, what JDM Engineering says about the comp cams and will gather more information as it becomes available. There supost to be some dyno numbers out soon on the C&L manifold and patroit heads. Would also like to...

    question about aluminum ds

    Not shifting out of 3rd isn't really a good thing. Gears are a torque multiplier, they get you to the sweet spot faster. Only using 3 gears seems like a lazy sorta run and your not getting the full potential of your engine. If your pounding 6,200 rpm's through 4 gears in the 1/4, your humping. I...

    3 valve intake manifold!C&L

    Well it's neither here or there if it's available today or tomarrow. It's just great that someone is making one. I don't see how a maniflod would really help a stock engine as such. However I could see a benifit with cams and heads. I'm interested to see what kind of numbers they get with the...

    ffrp hotrod cams w/ procharger?

    Yeah, I'm still cam hunting as well. I'm leaning toward the comp cams, but want to hear more about the hot rods. I want cams that will work well with the C&L inatke manifold and patroit heads. I'm wanting to hit 400 hp all motor and with all thses new parts comming out, it should now be...

    ffrp hotrod cams w/ procharger?

    If you want the dyno sheet for comp cams with phase limiters, contact JDM Engineering. They have the dyno sheet from thier build. It was a 298 3V stroker with the comp cams. They made 401 rwhp all motor on a strre legal package that passed emissions with the comp cams. I'm not going to do the...

    400 hp 5.0!!

    What really makes it cool is that we'll be at 400 hp with still less cubes and weight than the challenger or camaro. Hopefully it will be all aluminum for less nose weight in the twistie's as well.

    3 valve intake manifold!C&L

    I'm sorry, I don't mean to over react, but I do know what I saw. I just rechecked the magazine and there it is in a 2 page C&L add. It say's in big bold letters "NEW! C&L TRUEFLOW 3V INTAKE MANIFOLD" Then under that, it says "news flash" C&L/PATRIOT PERFORMANCE TRUEFLOW 3V CYLINDER...

    3 valve intake manifold!C&L

    If your talking about the intake, why don't it exsist anywhere? Crap mlike that really burns my butt, the know it all's. I told you where it exisit, it's on page 89 of the october issue of MM&FF in a full page C&L add. You need to investigate before trying to make some one out to be a liar. If...

    Shelby GT question

    It's your money, buy what you want, not what we want for you. If you can get a shelby GT for 32,000 and you like it, then buy it. I'ld sure rather have a shelby than my plain old GT, there weren't any around for 32 when I bought mine. My GT stickered for 32, but with rebates and X plan I got it...

    ffrp hotrod cams w/ procharger?

    I heard the hot rod cams are good for 30 hp on all motor, 60 hp with ported heads. If so, then thats not a bad performance bump. As far as the comp cams, JDM Engineering made 401 rwhp all motor with the new comp cams with phase limiter on a 298 stroker 3 valve and still passed emissions testing...

    3 valve intake manifold!C&L

    I would think for n/a motors, a set of cams and ported heads would benifit from the new intake. Throw on a set of long tubes and you would be circulating some air.

    An old guy's reunion.

    Thanks guy's, yeah it was cool. They said that they knew it was me before they even saw me. They said who else would come in squiling tires in a hot mustang but FOMOCO, some things never change.
