    Doesnt somebody sell a shaker hood for the 87-93 mustang?

    I looked into getting the banshee shaker hood about a year ago but decided not to. The banshee is just too small in relative comparison to the stock hood. Also it is designed only to bolt to a stock intake manifold. I contacted CDC (classic design concepts) the makers of the shaker for the...

    fuel injected 351?

    Several people on here have EFI 351 based motors. I would recommend getting a PMS or some kind of piggyback or stand alone system. You will get a better tune equaling more power and fuel efficiency. Good luck

    Burnouts

    The best way to burnout in a manual is to pump the brakes to build up brake pressure then rev to 5500 rpm and dump the clutch and then slam the brake. Hold the RPM's untill the hides are nice and smokey and then ease off the brake and gas and you will slowly creep froward to the staging line.

    The BBK adjustable clutch quadrant does not adjust at the firewall but at the clutch fork. But when I crawl under and attempt to adjust the jam nut and the cable the whole cable turns also.

    axle replacements

    If you have the funds now is a perfect time to upgrade your axles, assuming you will continue to modify your mustang and have plans for more power. I just broke my stock axles last month at the track and I upgraded to 31 spline and a locker rear end. I stayed with 4 lugs for now as I do not...

    Where did you put your battery kill switch??

    I have my kill switch behind my license plate and I just spaced it out with some pipe from home depot. I can reach the switch with the plate easily. I do not remember the measurements of the pipes but I could measure for you if you like.

    Broke stock axle at track, what to do now?

    Not really budget but I decided to go for it and get an Eaton locker and 31 spline moser axles with c-clip eliminators. Now I am looking forward to get it back out to the track and not worrying about breaking the rear

    Broke stock axle at track, what to do now?

    thanks, I guess I am not on a super tight budget that only allows sock axles but one that does not allow me to get too crazy. I was thinking the Powertrax Lock-rite differential is the only locker under $500 I can find but it is only 31 spline so I will need to go with a 31 spline axle w/...

    Broke stock axle at track, what to do now?

    I was at the local track tonight for the wally races and was doing well. I was in the semifinals and right as I launched I hear a thunk and I did not go anywhere. I thought at first I snapped the driveshaft in half but after pushing the car out of the lanes I found out that I broke my stock...

    Need storker opinions

    like everyone has mentioned, as long as the motor is built right a 331 or 347 will not have any reliability promblems as compared to the 306. The horsepower numbers are relatively similiar. I have 10,000 miles on my 347 and at least a couple hundred passes at the dragstrip spraying nitrous and...
