Yeah seems no easy / inexpensive way to get more power. I'll just find an 8.8 for it and run it.

So my 7.5 axles and brake set up will work on Fox rear end ? That will help in my search, local pull a part is full of v6 stangs not many v8. Would tear it apart anyways to change rear gear, probably 4.10 for road course use.

Inherited 1997 v6 for use as beater track day car. Thinking of swapping 1997 v6 to new edge type v6. Can get motor pretty cheap at junkyard,does it use the same CPU and harness?

Could something from another Ford be made to work with some work? Ranger, Explorer, Crown Vic ?

Inherited a 1997 v6 mustang, wanting to use as part time road course track car. Don't want to spend much on it, thinking of swapping rear end to an 8.8. What junkyard cars would have one that would work without alterations, Thanks.

Mine was the horn foam in steering wheel keeping relay energized, PO just unplugged horns.

Look at Tire Rack summer performance tire test and reviews. The Goodrich comp 2, Hankook Ventus, Bridgestone Potenzas are popular at road course. I have liked the Dunlop Star Specs.

I have BBK headers on mine and it barely clears. Have to pull header to get plug out

The P's use different spark plugs than stock. Headers will clear with 90 degree boot on #6 or 7 plug, pain to get plug out though.

Started Mustang yesterday for first time in five months, wish full thinking. Got an inch or two of rain today and snow coming back Thursday.

Just looked at kit, maintains cable clutch, pretty pricey. Not that it matters much but my Camaro gets 27 mpg on the highway with that 6th gear.

Sure does seem like more work than it's worth. I have driven my Mustang real hard for years on the street and road course with no trouble from trans with my mods maybe 260 HP or so. I did have to get the T56 in my 2000 Camaro SS rebuilt, car is all stock, don't know how hard it was driven before...

Distributor gear off a notch?

Leave it alone and run in stock class. Brakes won't be an issue in a less than a minute auto x. Get the stickiest DOT tire you can.

Agree TOB

Depends how much money you want to spend.

The increased binding from poly bushings in uca would increase the effect of snap oversteer

Don't know where you got the rack from, beware of Autozone rack. Installed one on mine, would bind up on left turns, didn't realize until after alignment since the shop was right up the street. Of course had to get fresh alignment after reinstall. Now after 3 years rack is sloppy till warmed up...

Get yourself a smallish compressor and a high torque impact, always need air for tires and other tools that will come in handy. Electric one nice but gotta make sure batteries charged all the time. Grease them till hard and full of grease, don't over do and blow out boot and or seal.

Good idea to replace all the tired bushings, I did a lot of the same things on mine. While your at it look at the MM panhard bar, made a huge difference in handling. http://www.maximummotorsports.com/tech_rear_susp_panhard.aspx
