    5.4l Dohc Swap

    Michael, can you snap a picture of the T-stat set up and share it? I am in th emiddle of this build right now and we're trying to get everything done while the motor is out of the car versus waiting until it is in the car. Also, did you stick with the TR3650 trans? any issues with it?

    Squeaking when Idling

    TOB wear is typical for SN95 as the way the TOB was greased when manufactured wasn't the best method for doing it. So the grease ends up drying up faster than normal

    Only 75% Power When Hot

    Cars love cold air. My 2000 GT, with 108k on the clock, in the morning when it is about 65 outside, runs like a raped ape. When I get off work and it is 90, I feel s power loss, I wouldn't say 25%, but there is a small loss for me.

    Restoring A 2000 Gt Convertible

    Ford Racing Diff cover, sell for about $199 on American Muscle. It was an extra when my Scott Drake cover was having leak issues on my 2013. I ordered another cover and Scott Drake sent me a brand new cover for the 2013 I installed it and that one didn't leak, so I had this one laying around, I...

    Possibly Easy But Expansive Question . . .

    Thought about a Coyote swap as well. Cost didn't deter me, but someone else did on their SN95 and blew the engine pretty fast. Never said what failed so I just left it as a fleeting thought but a 3V swap I could do. I have inlaws that are gear heads and would jump at the chance to do a conversion.

    Restoring A 2000 Gt Convertible

Tomorrow I am tearing out the rear diff cover, draining everything and cleaning it out and putting in new fluid and a new cover. Already got grease smudged on my new paint job, aint that a...

    Restoring A 2000 Gt Convertible

    I was kind of thinking that when looking at it today. Like I said the original plan was to restore it to the original factory look, which includes the GT hood stripes for S/E models which this car is, but I think it just looks great as it is... aside from the wheels. I am sure we can all say...

    Restoring A 2000 Gt Convertible

    Yeah I can live with it. I was outside at lunch looking at the car and now questioning whether I want to do the S/E stripes I spoke of earlier. After cleaning up the car (Spent 4.5 hours on it yesterday) I thought "Damn she looks sexy when clean, and was wondering if putting the stripes on it...

    Grinding Noise Under Passenger Seat

    Seems like the SN95s are quirky. Mine made noise, squeaked spit ground you name it. Upgraded the suspension with my restoration project and now I just have the normal but annoying interior trim squeaks and rattles which I will attack in due time. Hell my 13 has a nosy driver door, hit the small...
