    Used T5 Transmssion

    That sounds a little high. Is there a local Mustang club or anything around where you are? I found my WC T-5 on the local Mustang board for $250, zero mile rebuild. You have to kind of hunt for the deals!

    Muffler Help?

    ^ I'm in full agreement with this guy. I'm not the biggest fan of Flowmaster mufflers. I have MAC mufflers on my X pipe and have gotten lots of compliments, though I also have full length headers. Magnaflows are nice, I've heard Borla mufflers I like as well. Flowmasters and Dynomax mufflers...

    Question about camshaft + 94-95 ECU incompatibility

    Car is a 5 speed. I believe he is using 24# injectors and a 75mm maf (calibrated to 24# inj). Forget which brand, but want to say Pro-M, I think he wanted to stay away from c&l. I can check for sure tonight if it's important. If it is the tuner, he won't be happy. I think he forked over...

    Question about camshaft + 94-95 ECU incompatibility

    My brother has been having some trouble with his car. He has a 95 GT that he just did a h/c/i swap on, and it is not running very well. It WILL NOT idle whatsoever, and isn't very drivable at lower rpms. At high rpm-wot it runs beautifully. The sad part about this is, this is after he took...

    Transmission fluid for a brand new T-5

    What I did after I put mine in is I filled it up with regular ol' Dexron/Mercon ATF and took it for a spin around the block (I'm rural - block = about 10 miles). I then brought it back and drained out all the fluid. I then refilled with amsoil ATF. I was told to do this with a new or rebuilt...

    Cobra lower intake question - coolant leak

    Ok, I did NOT put sealant on any of the lower intake bolts. Sorry for the retarded question, but when you say right-front corner, you mean the passenger side, towards the front of the motor? I did a search (which usually answers my questions) before I posted this thread, and ran across...

    Cobra lower intake question - coolant leak

    I know exactly what you're talking about. Furthermore, my water neck is a replacement, and doesn't have that little flange or whatever at the radiator hose end, making it even more prone to leak. However, I have checked out the waterneck to intake, and radiator hose to waterneck pretty...

    rear seat removal

    Been a while, but I think I remember it all. First, use your knees to push back (towards rear of car) on the bottom seat cushion and pull up on the front of it, should "pop" out. Then you will need to unbolt two bolts on the sides of the seat back, one on each side. Remove the...

    Cobra lower intake question - coolant leak

    Alright, I'd like to get my car out pretty soon, but it needs a repair. I put in new temperature sensors last year, and immediately after I did that it started leaking coolant around the front of the intake, like around the distributor (small amount where the intake meets block) and it's...

    need short belt size

    You simply have to either measure or trial and error it. For example, my car with the 3g alt uses a 74.5" belt that fits perfectly. The 86 GT will have a different size waterpump pulley than 87+ so that will throw it off right there. Somewhere between 70-75 inches will be what you need...

    beat to death topic with a twist....cutting springs

    Well, that statement right there pretty much nullified this entire thread. It's pretty obvious that cutting old worn out stock springs isn't going to get you anywhere as far as a "stiffer/better ride" and "handling" are concerned.

    Please dont laugh, but what is this??

    That is a shock tower brace. Post up a picture of the rear end area and we can tell you what else it has. It should not have two rear sway bars, perhaps the car has a panhard bar.

    What's worse than installing a heater core?

    Oh wow. I just had my first a couple of weeks ago. I guess I have about 20 more :( Anyways, carpet is a pain, especially if you get cheap carpet and none of the moulding lines up right or anything, and you have to cut all your own holes.

    Question about catalytic converters (temp)

    So I should not run the x pipe with cats without an air pump due to the exhaust clogging up. I will then find a better way to hang the H-pipe that no longer has the hangers for the crossmember. Does anyone by chance have any pointers for this? The car is basically used for track use, so it...

    Question about catalytic converters (temp)

    I don't care whether the cats are actually functional though. I just was wondering if there would be a heat issue. Don't want any fires or something.

    Question about catalytic converters (temp)

    I currently have BBK headers and BBK off road H-pipe on my car. However, I ran across a BBK X pipe with cats for $100, and decided to buy it. The current H-pipe I have has had the hangers (that go into the trans xmember) cut off, and it hangs down awfully low. I only put 200 miles since...
