    I finally did it

    Now, Now… Lets not put all the blame on the salesman. :nono: I think at least some of it should be placed on 95/5.0stang. A few questions for you: Did you look up the Blue Book trade-in value before you went to the dealership? Did they, either by your informing them or their inspection of...

    spark plug wires

    From Zero Signal: That is one of the main selling points of the Magnecor wires. Their street wires provide superior Radio Frequency and Electro Magnetic interference supression, which is nice for if you actually want to listen to the music your radio is trying to give you. I imagine there...

    spark plug wires

    I'd like to throw my vote, if I can still be a citizen without actually owning a Mustang, toward <a href="http://www.magnecor.com/magnecor1/main.htm">Magnecor</a>. They seem to be on more than thier fair share of cars in Grassroots Motorsports, have good RF/EM interference suppression, and I...

    Which Rear end Gear Oil??

    Give Redline a call. They'll hook you up with the best stuff on the market. Worth the money if you don't have to change it for 100K, IMHO. -Steve

    Drilled Rotors

    Just read that thread. WOW, what fun, with all the name calling, and with the controversy, and the tech, and lack of tech, and then tech. Just remember, when it comes to the tech part of things, don't listen to custom89stang. He is, as he might say, a dumba$$. Pay attention to the guys that post...

    How much HP will a stock TB support?

    I don't want to but one, thats why I asked. Hehe, I don't even own a Mustang yet. Yet. Just doing some preliminary research. My current short list includes MM Full Length SFC'c, Cobra Brakes, after market shifter (probably Tri-Ax), Forte's or UPR clutch quadrant, FMS 3.55 gears, and good...

    How much HP will a stock TB support?

    Sorry for the repeat question I'm sure, but I did a search and couldn't find what I was looking for exactly. I saw that a 65mm TB is supposed to support 400hp (which seemed a little steep), but no guesstimate number for the 60mm. Thank you for your info...

    help with an optima!

    As for the cables The cheapest way that I've found to do battery cables is to make your own out of welders wire. Go to any good industrial (i.e. not Home Depot) supply place and they will be able to hook you up. They make them in sizes ranging from small to massive over kill, and the wire...

    Brake Upgrade on 95 GTS

    :nice: For ONCE! I like chopped liver. Noonions or nuth'n. And a prodigious phriggin' puck pic to boot. His explaination of a rotors job is about as concise as you get. For some solid tech, brought in heaping spoonfuls, go here...

    Advice wanted please on runnin synthetic oil.....

    High mileage motor oils are for cars that are mildly leaking... i.e. not yours. I would go with Mobil 1 synthetic. IMHO it is one of the better oil deals on the market. It performs near Redline, Amsoil, and the like, being a true group IV, instead of a highly refined dino oil like the Group III...

    rusted bolts...losing patience

    Cutting? No No No... Ya need to bring the heat. Take advantage of metals tendency to expand when it warms up. What I do is to douse the bolt with my favorite penetrating lube (currently either PB Blaster or Gunks Liquid Wrench), then hit it with a nice long squirt with the propane torch...
