    Should I run a Transbrake???

    Does anyone here have any experience using a transbrake?? Do they put a lot more strain on the driveshaft, U-joints, and rear end during the launch? If anyone here has used one, did you brake a lot more drivetrain parts than you ever did before you started using one? And if the answer to these...

    "REVERSE Manual" valvebodies???

    On automatic transmissions that have been fitted with "REVERSE manual" valvebodies, I realize that the order of 1st, 2nd, & 3rd gears is reversed, but what about Park & Reverse? Are they still situated in the front, or in the first two positions, or are they also reversed and placed in the back...

    Ratchet shifters anyone?

    I hope this isn't the wrong forum for this, since I placed it here because I figured that many of you who hang in this forum can be of help..... Does anyone here use an automatic with a ratchet shifter? I've never driven a car that had one, and I'm wondering how good they work for a car that...

    Have you used Race Gas?

    Have you used Race gas? I've started this poll because of my curiosity, but I also believe that if many of you participate in it, that it will provide some good information for everyone here. This is a topic that most hi-perf car enthusiasts don't care to talk about. However, I don't see it...

    Your MM stalling during idle?

    Just a heads up for you Marauder owners..... my Marauder was stalling left and right once the engine got to operating temperature. It would only stall while the car was in drive and standing still, or moving at around 5 MPH. Otherwise it was running great. A number of Marauder owners on the...

    S/Ced Marauder vs. 03 Vette

    I'm washing my 03 Marauder in one of those self-serve wash bays, and just as I finished, here comes this Red Vette (looked like an 03 , but I cannot tell between 03 and 04's anyway) who also just finished washing his car, through the parking lot headed out to the road just as I was, and when he...

    31 or 28 spline?

    Please be patient with me if this has already been discussed on here, because I did a search and didn't find it.... has anyone heard or read anything about the rear end, or more specifically about the axles of the GT500, as to whether these cars will be equipped with 28 spline, or the more...

    Left Lane Hogs:

    In at least two states -- Colorado and Florida -- cops are beginning to target drivers who squat in the far left lane and refuse to move right to let faster-moving traffic get by. For decades, these drivers have been allowed to create rolling roadblocks and interrupt the smooth (and therfore...

    P315's might fit:

    I've read atleast some of the threads on here which discussed what the widest tires that would possibly fit on the back of the GT500. Perhaps much of this is all guess work at this point since the car isn't even out yet. But from what I remember, it seemed to be the general concensus on this...

    Break out the popcorn & turn up the volume(My NEW burnout vid)

    I just completed a new burnout vid. It has several different types of burnouts in it that I did with my supercharged Marauder. Below are two links......the first one is for the video, and the second one is for the MPEG-2 decoder if you're having problems downloading it (which will be the case IF...

    A good burnout place?

    I have a question for all of you Connecticut SVT board members..... I'm intending to enter a video burnout contest which is being put on and judged by the company that I've purchased my supercharger from, and is only for their S/Cer customers. I have a friend who has some very good video...

    I got a ride in a FordGT!!!

    What a car!!! I met someone who was nice enough to give me a ride in his new Ford GT, and I couldn't believe how that thing handled. The man took a tight "S" turn at a speed that would've either flipped the 911 Porches that I've driven in the past, or caused them to spin out. And acceleration...

    The Marauder board:

    Because of my controversial statements concerning the Marauder board, one of it's vendors, and some of it's members in another thread in this forum that had to be deleted by the administrator here, I had to take a hard look at myself, and make an assessment of what I had written in that thread...

    Line-Lock anyone?

    Is there anyone here from Connecticut who has had Line-Lock installed in their car, who can also recommend a garage to me to perform the task? I was thinking about doing the installation myself, but if I find a place that someone can recommend to do it, then I might just pay to have it done...

    Drivetrain noise

    please excuse me if this has been posted in this forum before, but I don't look at this forum that often since I have a 2003 Marauder. However a friend of mine just purchased an 04 Cobra, and he has noticed some drivetrain noise, and the dealer told him that all the new Cobras make drivetrain...

    Do we have a lack of freedom?

    what's your opinion of the freedoms that we Americans have? Do you think that we still enjoy the most freedoms out of any nation on earth? And if you think that we have a lack of it, then what do you think has caused it?

    The Best three movies you've ever seen:

    okay, I'm fairly new to this board, so if this has been posted already, then someone please let me know. But since we've already had a poll about what the worst movie that you've seen was, I thought it would also be interesting to hearwhat you three favorite ones were that you've seen, but it...

    Question about Cobras:

    I own a Marauder which I've S/Ced. I haven't had any problems w/the automatic transmission yet, but incase I ever do, I'm wondering if there's a beefier Ford factory automatic transmission than the one that's in my car that I can install. A co-worker of mine is telling me that Ford offers an...
