    Another lesson learned... SVE Aluminum Radiator from LRS

    I bought an aluminum radiator from LRS. I installed it in my car and it was a tight fit. The isolators on top were tight and the radiator was pressed up against the core support and AC condenser. I didn't give this much thought at the time. Fast forward 4 months and I had a radiator leak. I...

    New Raxiom Icon LED Tail lamps. What do you think?

    Check out this product: http://www.americanmuscle.com/raxiom-icon-led-taillights.html I just found these yesterday on the American Muscle site. I have been wanting something similar for a while now. What do all of you guys think? Are they too expensive at $374.99? I think I will get some...

    Does anyone know what may be happening with my 2002 GT?

    I have a pretty stout 2002 Mustang GT. A few months ago while sitting in heavy interstate traffic, a lot of stop and go because of an overturned truck in the road, it started running really bad. It wouldn't hardly idle and it would spit and sputter and if you really gassed it then it would run...

    What's the best clear coat?

    I am looking for the best clear coat that will withstand rock chips, UV damage, and most other stuff you throw at it. With all the advancements in paint technology it would seem that there would be something out there that was nearly indestructible. Any paint and body guys have any ideas? I...

    Installed new Meziere Electric water pump last night...

    It was relatively easy. The car seems a little more peppy off idle but I cannot tell a difference at WOT. When installing the new pump I solved another issue I had. I had Steeda under drive pulleys so I bought a belt last week that was an inch shorter than stock (it worked perfect). When my...

    Has anyone installed a tubular K-member at home?

    I have a brand new MM K-member, rack bushings, and steering shaft for my 2002 GT. What should I expect when installing it? I have air tools, a high level of mechanic expertise, and all the recommended parts. It seems pretty straight forward but doing it on my back in the driveway always seems...

    2002 GT would not idle in open loop.

    My 2002 GT had a weird issue that I have since corrected. I wanted to share it with you all. Last year in March I needed to replace my old stock and very tired 2V 4.6. After a missed 2nd to 3rd shift that resulted in a 2nd to 1st shift it had developed a piston wrist pin knock. I bough a very...

    Anyone have N/A dyno numbers for 99-04 2V Long Tube headers?

    I am looking for a set of Long Tube headers for my 2002 GT. I am wondering what kind of power gains can be expected over my BBK equal length ceramic shorty headers I have now. I am leaning toward buying the kooks but then I would want to wrap them because they are not coated. I am wanting to...

    South Georgia Motorsports Park... Anyone been there?

    Yesterday I was searching for the closest 1/4 Mile Drag Strip to where I live and I found South Georgia Motorsports park. Has anyone been there? It is almost 3 hours from where I live so it would be a bit of a journey for me to go but I am planning to take a trip there soon to make some 1/4...

    Best K member for 99-04 Mustangs

    I would guess that Maximum Motorsport would be the best for street use but they sure want a bunch of money for their stuff. I have heard horror stories about UPR's stuff. What's the best for street use? Is anyone using the AJE? It looks very flimsy in the photos I have seen. The Granatelli...

    T56 Magnum issues

    I own a 2002 mineral grey GT. I had previously installed an 03 Cobra T56 swap and it was fairly simple and straight forward. After a year my reverse stopped working and I decided to buy a new T56 Magnum from Ford Racing. I got the trans three days after purchasing it. I bought a new...
