    subframes and renforcement plates

    Another vote for Rick91GTs lower torque box kit. It's top notch and good price, and a really good guy to deal with. :nice: As for the upper tq boxes I just had them welded by a buddy.. Basically you just weld any of the seams where they mate up the the floor or frame rail or bracing.. as...

    To cam, or not to cam...

    I actually never set out in the beginning to have any specific goals with the stock cam. I basically had planned to run the car this past season with the top end done like it is, then actually rebuild over the winter and then put a cam in. Something custom for what all is on my car. But in all...

    Ahhh... so then the SVT/Manley 4.6 32v Cobra rods will work with his stock crank IF thats what he decides? [we weren't sure and wanted to BE sure..] I know for sure hes going forged pistons... See what happens as far as crank.. $$ permitting. THanks again.

    Those with Bumper Deletes....

    My front bumper support and struts got yanked, and the front nose doesn't sag at all. I think it weighs around 27 LBs with the struts and bolts and stuff. Got it written down [weight of all the stuff I removed] but can't find it at the moment.

    Thanks guys, Good to know about the Eaton unit.. I had been debating the Powertrax mini lockers, but read something about the teeth shear off or something under drag race type abuse :shrug: Probably go with the Eaton posi in 31 spline, along with the better axles.. and either 3.90s or...

    Went to the track today....

    Thanks, Yeah the track we go to never really does much as far as prepping.. lucky to get water sprayed down for your burnouts, but on the good end of things, its not the busiest place in the world, so no long lines, and, well, it's the only place that was open.. Some of 60 foot problems...

    Went to the track today....

    Getting there, slowly but surely... the track decided to open cause the weather was nice, but no 1/8th mile recordings, no VHT, and my buddy had to grab the water hose and spray for our burnouts.. [no one was there..] there was maybe 10 people there racing total.. was nice.. but no track prep...

    Emissions legel AFR ?

    you have two plugs in your stock heads.. You can re use the front 2 plugs from your stock heads to put in the front of the AFRs, so you can mount your accessories, and then use the two AFR gave you to plug the smog holes in the back.. Or vice versa, new ones from AFR in the front to mount...

    stock FUEL PUMP? OK for my mods?

    Just curious... At what point does a 155 L/hr pump start to fall behind? The place I bought mine from said that the 155 pump is good 350-375 naturally aspirated HP... and then it's completley maxed... That sound right?

    Tapping noise on startup

    What oil filter are you using? I try to stick with the Motorcraft one. I used a Fram on my car once and had that happen. Some times the anti drain back valve in the filter is faulty or no good... or just a crummy quality filter and this can happen.

    Weight Reduction Questions.. Lets try and get at least one response here :)

    I have made a few more small tweaks and my Notch is now 2720 w/o me... Springtime I am taking out the power steering and putting in Flaming River, and very likely will go to tubluar K member and a arms. Even though I have a glass hood, [Cervinis] it weighed the same as stock... both were around...
