    Good shops in/ near Greenville SC

    Just moved to Greenville SC from Orlando. Crazy thing is I can't even get my cobra out of the driveway at the house I'm renting. Rolled curb is a little too high, while the driveway takes a steep decline, and my car is just too low to make. Anyway, I have some stuff that needs to be done...

    I'm supporting the front of the car with stands under the subframe rail. I was going to jack the rear up and put stands under the rear subframe rail as well. Has anyone had problems with subframe rails supporting the entire weight of the car? I have the Stiffler fit system, and while i can't...

    Throttle body

    Doesn't seem to be much info here when doing a search, but the reviews for the accufab sbtb w/ plenum on different websites have people claiming anywhere from 25 to 50+ hp gains, depending on your mods. Does anyone have real before/ after numbers? Over 50hp gains seems like a stretch, even...

    Belt size

    I ordered a BF 2.76" upper with 4 piece idler kit. From what I've read, most people use a 74.5 or 75.1" belt for this setup, but LMR recommends a gates 75.65". Any reason not to go with the 75.65" belt on this setup?

    I've seen some cars with "terminator" or "svt" on the lower grill of the front bumper. Is there a vendor that makes these, or are they custom? I checked a few sites but haven't seen them

    Question regarding MM clutch cable kit

    I bought the maximum motorsports clutch cable kit to replace the UPR setup i have. I talked to the local performance shop and they said the cable was no good (recommended getting oem cable). I've however heard some people state that the cable is exactly the same as OEM except for a different...

    Sorta OT, but still cool..

    So my Mustang enthusiasm definitely started with my dad, who's owned numerous one's throughout his life. The baddest ever, however, was his 69 Mach1 SCJ (Super Cobra Jet). I believe only 1,100 Mach1's were made with the SCJ engine, and his was a "1 of 1" due to the options ordered from the...

    RPM fluctuation after WOT

    So I went WOT in 3rd gear today, then went to neutral to slow down. While in N, I noticed the RPM's started fluctuating between ~450 and 1,200 in a fairly steady pattern. My initial thought is that there may be a vacuum leak (or even an ECU issue?), but wanted to hear from anyone else who may...
