    Alternator dead after pulley change

    Can an alternator stop working after I take it out to swap out pulleys and then replace it? Could the act of clanging it around a little cause it to stop working? It was an original one that came on the car if that helps.

    WTB - Stock Lug Nuts

    2 or 4 of them. I managed to snap one of the locking ones in half tonight and it's still stuck on the wheel, so I'm just going to get rid of them all. I don't care if they've been used a bunch so long as they aren't beat to hell.

    New Whipple, New Tune, Possible Spark Issues, Shuddering at WOT

    I got my whipple swap done and a new tune loaded yesterday and took the car out for a test drive this morning. Car runs great under normal driving and idle, but when I go WOT, the car shudders and bogs down and doesn't want to produce the power like it should. Wideband tells me that the car...

    Connector on back of cylinder head

    There is a connector on the back of head cylinder head. Is this an actual sensor or is it just a place where the wiring harness ties down to prevent it from moving?

    Return system and FRPS Question

    Does the FRPS still need the boost/vacuum line attached to it when converting over to a return fuel setup? If it doesn't that's the line I'm stealing for the regulator.

    Header Leak

    But not at the gasket, has anyone ever had a header leak where the tube meets the flange? Gaskets are free of carbon deposits but it looks like water is coming out of the back of the flange and is dark with carbon in that area. These are Kooks 1-3/4 headers by the way.

    ABS / Braking Problem

    For the past two days the car has been skipping/pulsating under braking. It doesn't occur under the entire stop only from about 10 mph to a dead stop, that is to say if I'm stopping from 55 the brakes will feel normal until about 10mph at which I can feel and hear the brake pedal pulsate and...

    Test to see if differential clutches are bad

    Just making sure I'm doing this correctly. To test if your differential clutches are shot in a stock rearend, you essentially jack the rear of the car up, put it in neutral, hold one rear tire and attempt to spin the other rear tire. If the tire spins without much force, your clutches in the...

    Kooks Longtube Leak

    Installed some Kooks longtubes this past weekend and didn't notice anything initially, but as soon as I got into the slightest amount of boost, I get a horrible hissing air escaping noise coming from underneath the car. With it idling, I can hear a slight tick if I'm listening near the front...

    Passenger Side Rear Tire Wearing Much Faster

    Strange I just noticed today that my passenger rear tire is wearing much much faster than the drivers rear tire. I went over to some MM coilovers last month and had an alignment done after I got my ride height where I liked it so I don't believe it's an alignment issue, especially since it's...

    Those with PSR K-members....Steering Rack Bushings

    For those of you that have the PSR K-members, what steering rack bushings did you use. I got it up and on tonight before I realized that the bolt that goes through the steering rack was much much larger than the stock one, so now I can't use my MM solids unless I drill them out. Any help??

    Big Props to Bruce (ac427cobra)...

    ...and all the work he's done with the IRS in these cars. I recently purchased his full bushing kit/bumpsteer-upgraded toe links/adjustable sway bar end links and got to install them two weekends back and all I can say is wow, Ford's NVH engineers really dropped the ball on the rear end on...

    Too much of a drop?

    Just put on some coilover and Bruce's complete bushing kit (A BIG thanks to him, the kit is just unreal), and I got my car leveled out and was wondering if you guys think this was too much of a drop? You'll have to excuse the car being filthy, it's tree sperm season here in Alabama and a clean...
