    Converting to 10.5 inch clutch on 2004 GT?

    My clutch is fine, but my TOB is squeaking pretty bad, and I figure if I'm going to go through the trouble of pulling the trans off, I may as well do the clutch while I'm in there. So here's my question. I just finished reading on Maximum Motorsports' website that Ford used a non-conventional...

    Coilovers on Daily Driver?

    Thanks for the input! My problem with the rears is that I have Eibach Prokit springs on all 4 right now, and the rear ones are sagging, and I think they are responsible for the creaking sound in my rear suspension (installed them without isolators, and they are rusted around the area where they...

    Coilovers on Daily Driver?

    I've been thinking about installing coilovers on all corners of my '04 GT, which is my daily driver, and I was wondering if there are any negative aspects of this decision? I've searched around and found a good amount of information about coilovers in general, but no discussion about coilovers...

    03 Cobra Hood on 04 GT???

    Any insight to how I can get it to fit? I've got a pretty well setup garage at my house and I'm fairly mechanically inclined, but I've never really done much body work, so any hints would be appreciated. Thanks!!!

    03 Cobra Hood on 04 GT???

    I have an opportunity to buy an 03 Cobra hood used for cheap and I would like to put it on my 04 GT, but someone just told me that it won't fit on my car without the Cobra bumper as well. I want to keep my front bumper so is there a way to make the hood work or should I just scrap the idea? Thanks.

    cool ebay find

    I've had a few drinks tonight so someone correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't an "M" code a Windsor motor? Sure looks like a Windsor to me, but they say in the auction it's a clevland. I could be wrong, but if I'm right, I'm surprised that many people bid on it with a screwy description...

    Quick Nitrous Express Question

    OK, I have my fuel rail adapter, and haven't tried to install it yet, but I can't really tell exactly how it works from the pictures. Sorry for my ignorance, but can someone give me a step by step of how to install it? Is it plug and play or do I have to modify the fuel rail? I've never hooked...

    Options for brake upgrade

    I'm not looking for something that looks good and doesn't work, believe me, I know the importance of brakes and suspension. I just like the way 4 caliper brakes look so out of curiousity I'm asking if there's a way I can put them on my car without spending insane amounts of money on some kit. I...

    Options for brake upgrade

    OK, I have a 1969 Mach 1 with the factory single piston brake calipers. I want to do a brake upgrade, but all I can find is kits that cost $1000+ to upgrade to huge rotors that are drilled and slotted for a car that originally had drum brakes in front. I don't want to do anything that fancy or...

    Quick Nitrous Express Question

    Does anyone have a picture of the NX Fuel Rail Adapter installed on an '04 GT? I'm ordering mine this week, and I'd just like to get an idea of how it works before it gets here. Also, for a 100 shot, does anyone know where and which NX jet kit I should buy? I'd like to jet the setup for 75 to...

    Yeah that's them... Anyone else heard of them or had any experience? I'm starting to get a little concerned that I'm never gonna see my rear end or my money ever again.

    Mae Racing... WTF???

    Has anyone heard anything about Mae Racing lately? I was referred to them by a friend a few months ago and ordered a new center section for my car. After a month I sent them an email asking when I should expect it. They said 5-10 days to ship. Another month went by and I've emailed them several...

    allright, I give up

    I'd go with a Pertronix drop in ignition first since you can wire it right up to your existing dizzy to start and they're much cheaper than a new system. For a conservative engine combo they work great and it's probably the best bang for the buck unless you get some kind of killer deal.

    allright, I give up

    I had this exact same problem with my '67 fastback which also had a 302 and an Edelbrock carb. I can almost promise you it's the fuel boiling in the carb or in the fuel line right before the carb. Some people also refer to this problem as vapor lock I believe. What I did was re-route the fuel...

    3650 behind a 351W?

    I have the opportunity to get a T3650 for free and was just wondering if it's possible to put a new T3650 behind the 351W in my '69 Mach 1. I suspect that there isn't a bellhousing that will bolt up to a Windsor motor but I just wanted to see if anyone knew of a way to do it. Thanks.

    Clutch Pedal for '69 Mach?

    I'm starting to collect parts to swap a TKO into my '69 Mach 1 which currently has the stock FMX and lately I've been searching for a clutch pedal assembly. I see plenty of places that carry clutch pedals for 64-66, but I have yet to see a company that offers them for '69s. I was just wondering...

    Fuel Rail Question

    I want to install a fuel pressure gauge in my car, but I have an '04 without the valve on the fuel rail to tap the system. Rather than buying the adapter fitting, I was wondering if I could just find a junked '02 or '03 GT and grab the stock fuel rail off of that? Unless there is an easier way...
