    Really? I've stumped the forum? Or it's so simple I look like a complete dumb ass

    Transmission Crossmember Orientation

    Modifying my crossmember for a Tremec install and I forgot which direction is toward the engine. Before I weld the body mounting points maybe one of you fine folks could help me. Is the larger hump the drivers side or is it the other way? Thanks

    Valve Cover And The Explorer Upper Intake Clearance

    My Oil filler port is on the passenger side, where yours is, breather is on the driver, you must have different valve covers. I'm not even seeing a breather in the pictures you provided and your manifold is different from mine. Mines a GT40 as mentioned in my post.

    Valve Cover And The Explorer Upper Intake Clearance

    I'm having some clearance issues with my Explorer (GT40) upper plenum and my driver side valve cover. Does anyone make a valve cover without a breather on the driver side cover? My problem is the upper plenum is hitting the breather. I have a stock hood so I'm leary of raising the plenum up...

    89 Notch Doing The Tko 600 Swap

    Pulling the old motor on my Road Racer, out with the 5.0 in with the 347. So I'm fairly sure I have a Tremec 3550 or 3650 tranny in it now (too lazy to go outside and look) I know it's not a T-5. With third gear going grind grind when she's cold, I figured with the engine swap it's time for the...

    Hooked battery up backwards

    89 5.0 LX Sounds like I'm the idiot of the century, however I bought the car with a battery box in the trunk and the cables are not marked (they are now!). Anyway I just hooked the cables up backwards, smoked a 10 gauge wire off the solenoid which connects to a fusable link. Everything seems...

    Can't find my Bung

    Any idea on the part number for the t-stat housing thats tapped...or what year to ask for...my parts guy didn't know what a thermostat housing was...feel my pain. Also I'm not showing any water ports in the rear of the manifold. I've got the GT 40 set up...

    Pulley Alignment

    Any thoughts on the best way to align pulleys? I mean other than eyeballing it..I've got one out of wack and it trims my serp belt to fit. It works but at some point it might cause me some issues when my car gets tech'd prior to a race or autocross. Thanks

    Can't find my Bung

    Seriously, I have an existing mechanical water temp gauge hooked into the obvious bung in the intake manifold (front left). I need to find another bung to put a new temp sensor in for an electric fan set up I'm about to install. Does anyone have any ideas where to mount this sensor? Maybe on the...

    Stroker kits...which one?

    I'm ready to start my build on a fully preped block, notched, bored and honed. I've just been away from the mustang stuff for awhile and need to get the forums opinion on who's making the best FORGED CRANK KIT. I autocross the car and it spends a great deal of time in the 5500 to 7000 rpm range...

    I want to swap my auto for a 5 speed in my 92 LX

    It's a fairly easy mod. I did this on a 91 LX, in 1992 way before the aftermarket community had caught up. I forund a junker at a yard and bought the whole drivetrain, and all the parts, like pedals, driveshaft etc. However, my AOD driveshaft fit so I just used it. All the holes and stuff are...
