    SOLD Mid Pipe H 2001 Gt With High Flow Cats

    I went with a fancy Bassani system, so this is forsale. I didn't pick up any power on the dyno, so I shouldn't have bothered! I'm not going to put this back on. It's a H Pipe with high flow cats that works perfectly with emissions and has never thrown a CEL. It is a factory H Pipe that has...

    Whats Best Oil To Run,whats Ya Opinion

    My understanding is mobil 1 EP is part base 3 and part base 4. Still a good oil, but not 100% base 4 like the european car oil.

    Whats Best Oil To Run,whats Ya Opinion

    Mobil 1 0w-40 European Car. It's very high in zinc antiwear, and is a true grade iv based synthetic. In the US, a lot of the synthetics are not true synthetics. Europe has tougher standards of what a synthetic is. Castrol and I think Penzoil have euro oil as well. Royal Purple, Amsoil, Redline...

    Whipple 5.0 or GT 500?

    Boss is a great car, but no Sync! Boss is a better track car than a GT500 since thermal management is not an issue.

    19lb Injectors, Stock Intake Manifold, TB, Plenum, and factory CAI with paper filter

    Intake parts from the 2001 4.6 2V GT. I had pulled the top of the motor apart looking for a source of my lean condition which turned out to be a chunk missing from an intake manifold gasket. Must have been built on a friday ;) While I had things apart, I did some upgrades, and now have a box...

    T TOPS Good shape with bag $125 or b/o

    My dad has T tops from a 85GT in the garage. I'll try to get a pic this weekend. I'm 99% sure we have the bags too. Pick up in NJ, or I'll ship them. They are big and heavy, so figure $40 for UPS Ground.

    Whipple 5.0 or GT 500?

    All good points! I had a 98 cobra vert that I added a vortech on. Had it for a few years, and had to sell it since I had no where to keep it when I was living in the city. For what I spent on the mods and resale, I should have just purchased a 03 cobra and had a forged motor. I think the...

    Whipple 5.0 or GT 500?

    What makes more power, or are the similar? 2011 5.0 with Whipple 2.9 or 2011 GT 500 with pully CAI and tune I'm going to pick something up as a fun driver, not a track car. I figure the 5.0 will be 10k less, but with lower resale value and more hassle. Leaning towards the 500

    BEST KENNE BELL TUNER IN NEW JERSEY?

    JDM in Freehold tuned my 98 Vortech Cobra and it was smoother than a stock motor. I'm taking a modified 01 GT there later this month. You may find an equal, but I don't think there is anyone better.

    Would you trade in a mach1 on a new 5.0?

    Interesting! Be a little more open minded about the newer setup. The 3 link setup is pretty good. I had a panhard bar on my 98 cobra vert and it settled it down nicely. My 01 has a panhard bar and torque arm and the car runs with the BMW's all day at the track. I agree, the old 4 link setup...

    Would you trade in a mach1 on a new 5.0?

    Whew, I'm sorry you almost learned something! IMHO there is nothing wrong with buying a new car. I think there is something very wrong with going into debt so you can go from a 300hp fun car to a 400hp fun car.

    Would you trade in a mach1 on a new 5.0?

    The difference is that you have a new car, no cash, and owe over 17k on it. In five years, you have finally paid off the debt but have a five year old car. And you have higher insurance payments for the five years. And you have paid 3.9% interest on 17k. You already have a fun car to drive...

    Would you trade in a mach1 on a new 5.0?

    Finance it? If you can't pay cash, don't even think about it! Your Mach 1 isn't going to lose that much value in the next 5 yrs with the pristine condition, low miles. The 5.0 will lose 25% in value driving it off the lot! Put the 3k down payment in a 2yr CD, and start saving the 5.0 payment in...

    Help needed with Lean 4.6 2V. Logs enclosed

    I have worked through the engine in the past couple of months. Ignition and spark were fine. Compression was good in all 8 cylinders too. Purchased a revised intake manifold and changed it out this week. That fixed the problem! There was a chunk missing out of the gasket between upper intake...

    Help needed with Lean 4.6 2V. Logs enclosed

    Just got back from a 3 day event at NJMP with the BMW club. A lot of fun despite missing a few sessions to two cracked brake rotors... There was a Mach 1 there, and we ran south jersey parts stores out of rotors. Next time I'm bringing four spare front rotors! I used the SCT to remove 2 degrees...

    Help needed with Lean 4.6 2V. Logs enclosed

    Here is a WOT 2nd gear datalog from my 01 mustang 4.6L 2V with return style fuel system that does the 1/4 mile in 15.9 sec at 92mph. Obviously, I am way down on power. At about 4800rpm the MAF flatlines and bank 1 goes lean all the way to redline. Bank 2 a/f seems fine. Any ideas? Fuel pressure...
