i had one the other morning...i was cruising across base to meet up with a friend at our motorpool to do some work when this 300ZX (read, epitomy of a ricer) decided to "race" me. he would wait until i was behind someone, and then come ROARING past me...finally i get beside him, throw it in...

so the uppers are the same? i mean from Mustang to Explorer? it's just the lower that's different? Josh

why is it doubted it came with 3.08's? my '88 has 3.08s...that was a popular option. 2.73's were standard, but if the person who bought it knew what box to check, 3.08's will be in it...BTW, you can get the code for the gears on the door... Josh

no...you need the heat a torch produces...a lighter gets nowhere near as hot... Josh

well, i might stick with the stage 1 as well...anyone have any other cam suggestions? i am using the car as a daily driver/weekend warrior pretty much. i want a nice, lumpy idle, but i want the performance to match. i am most likely saving up and going to do H/C/I at the same time...so what...

i dunno...i thought i had seen it, but i can't find it...i will keep looking and get back to ya if i find something...in the meantime, maybe someone will chime in with more useful info! Josh

on my old '87 Firebird Formula, i had the e-fans set up to use a factory-style thermo switch and only had another switch as an override...i think that is the safest way to wire 'em up. for a little bit, i didn't have the thermo switch and i remember a few times on the way to work i almost burnt...

i could have sworn i saw 'em in a 4-lug, just don't know where...i will do some research on this... Josh

well, i don't have my '86 GT with t-tops anymore, so the current user name really doesn't fit me anymore and i was wondering if one of you guys would be so kind as to change my name. i looked in the member's directory and it looks like the name i want isn't taken. if this is possible, could...

yea, i knew i could get under it...just figured if it was pretty easy to get out i would just replace it since i have a GREAT one...thanks guys! Josh

thats what i was afraid of...i'll get pics later on...i think it can be fixed but i was hopin it would be easier to replace... Josh

sometime in my Stang's past, the hood flew off...i mean TOTALLY off...this left extensive dents in the roof and in the cowl panel. here is my question...is the cowl panel removeable without extensive labor? i have a PERFECT one out of my '86 donor car, i just need to know how to get it out...

you mean you haven't heard the stage 2? i was thinking about the stage 2, but i still have stock heads. i wanted it because i like to change things once...so i think it would be better for future upgrades...how will a stage 2 do with stock heads...what about a stage 1? personally i don't WANT...

wow, that is a BEAUTIFUL car...great find!! my favorite color! Josh

it would have to be a 3.3. the 2.8 was dropped after it's first year, 1979...seems like a good deal, would make a decent daily driver...i say go for it!! Josh

man, my AC delete is just one silver "bar" with a pulley on it...that looks complicated... Josh

well, Phil, THANK YOU! i passed by simply adding denatured alcohol to the tank! passed well, actually. as for "can a Stang pass without cats, BET YOUR ASS IT CAN!", mine did. as far as a visual inspection...WA doesn't do 'em. or i have never had one. thanks to all who helped, i really...

cool, i will try that here soon, might run some seafoam in the intake and change my oil too...it's not really that old, but after doing the seafoam i will change it Josh

my timing is at 14* base. i think i will try that trick, Phil...how long did you drive around to let the alcohol get into the engine? Josh

well, my car ALMOST passed emissions this time, only failing by the idle HC's (Hydrocarbons), only by 62 points. i say "only" because last time it failed by over 1200 points, so this is a DRASTIC improvement, it's amazing what new lower intake manifold gaskets (the fancy kind that SEAL!) will...
