So I've narrowed it down to these 2 intakes. I like the JLP box for avoiding the heat, except I've heard the box can rub on the hood, and I kind of like seeing the filter, since my truck is strictly fair weather. Plus they also sell the oil separators. JLP does have the ram air option though...

I'm just getting started on the mods and was wondering who has the latest in cold air intakes? Chickenears was my 1st pick, but they stopped production. JLP is my 2nd but I'm not so sure on the open box lid, unless it seals to the hood? I am looking for a ram air kit but FIPK, Airaid and...

Anybody else have a driver's side door rattle? I'll have to be clear about this first, the truck has 12k miles on it, and have had it since 2k, so it's pratically mint. I'm surprised about this rattle, that is only heard when the weather warms up. The door is very tightly latched on the striker...

So after installing my jlp shackles, I get a 20-30mph vibration even after the 180 shim rotation. I read all the threads on measuring, and checking mine it looks like -1 on the pinion and 5 on the shaft. Spicer recommends an operating angle of not more then 3 degrees, and I'm at 6. My questions...

Either its all in my head or there is a slight change in handling from dropping the back down. As far as handling in a truck goes, it just feels like it stays square with less body roll around the corners. It actually measured out to be 3" at the bumper and 2" at the wheel. Also the 180...

Was this covered yet? I didn't see the link in fourcams thread. Ford revives Boss engine Rebirth of its legendary V-8 revs up racing, street versions at 340-500 hp in Mustangs and F-150s. Bryce G. Hoffman / The Detroit News Advertisement GET FREE HEADLINES BY E-MAIL See...

I'm not sure how it's possible, but I just saw a blue on white rip down the street. no pics yet, but I'm sure it's from the dealer just down the street. Has anyone heard of Canada getting theirs already? I'll probably head down there at lunch. Exhaust sounded thoaty and with a very smooth...

Wasn't sure what forum to put this in but, did they get exclusive rights to the name? Or just the "Boss" with no numbers/letters following, like "Boss 302"?

I'm sure this has been done but was wondering if someone can direct me to some info on it. I've come across a couple crashed 99 Lightings, and I'm curious as to how tricky it would be to transplant the powertrain into my 98 F-150 rc/fs. The only real grey area is whether there could be a...

dated from yesterday. This is the only photo I managed to take of a couple of Ford GT´s outside a warehouse...there were at least 15 more around the corner but my father drove of at high speed so I couldn´t take any more photos...

Has anyone heard of any new racing platform other then the Mustang platform? I know they never intended on using the GT for competition use, but the next generation after the production run was a possibility I heard. And they're really missing out in the ALMS series. They need to get into the...
