I relocated from Northern Colorado to North County San Diego back at the end of 2014. The car has had some issues and I'm hoping you guys can recommend someone who is a "guru" for these cars, especially the modified ones. Please let me know where I should go for help. Thanks in advance.

So I HATE the stock seats. My driver side power switch was basically broken when I bought the car almost 11 years ago. So I took my best stab at fixing the problem. Here's what I did.. tell me what you think! First I removed the stock seat. Next I assembled these manual sliders and...

So I had the original fan fail about a year ago so I installed the doorman brand replacement from summit racing, fixed my running hot condition I was having back when the old fan was allegedly "working." The other night I smelled distinctive smell of electrical fire, ran for the extinguisher...

Interested what you guys think I should ask for my factory wheels. They are in excellent condition both inside the hoop as well as the face. No curb rash. They haven't spent much time on the car as myself and previous owner ran aftermarket wheels. Moving far away so would rather sell them...

IT was a hot day so the car was running a bit sluggish especially with two ~220lb meatheads in it lol but my buddy snapped a quick video of me grabbin gears. Like 5-100mph or so. Tires are Nitto NT05 295 on the rear. Hope you guys are enjoying your cars this summer cuz I am!:burnout...

So my Procharger sheetmetal 3-core is HUGE. It is probably over 2ft tall.. the tanks on top and bottom seem to block the entire radiator, especially where the air can get to it. Should it be mounted tight to the rad? That's how procharger's brackets seem to make it mount. I fiddled with it...

This car has been in pieces since June of 2010. Finally got it up and running over the winter with my new built longblock. Has the usual decked, ported, and 5 angle valve job on the heads, manley h-beams, manley flat tops, ARP bolts, etc. Just been trying to work the bugs out of it ever since...

Why are my wheels sticking out past the fenders!? Ever since I fixed my camber they have looked like crap. Are my wheels the wrong offset? Bought them years ago from OE Wheels Direct, they used to advertise in MM&FF and 5.0 mags. Anyone else experiencing this? :dw: [/

Tires are Nitto 555 in 275x18. Wheels were purchased from OE Wheels Direct that used to advertise in most of the mustang rags. 18x9" fronts 18x10.5" rears. Looked good initially with all the extra camber from lowering. BUT.. then I had to fix that with camber plates and after the...

So I've only driven the car a little bit to break it in, hasn't been tuned yet and needs to be.. Noticed small oil puddle under the car. Comes from the back of the oil pan. Oil seems to be present between the pan and the bellhousing. Can't tell if it's coming out of the opening in the...

:fm: I'm furious. I manage a team of 18 employees at a full service carwash. Applied at an express carwash that was looking for a General Manager.. Told them it was alright to contact my GM at my current job. They did and he gave me a good review. So they offered me the job. I accepted...

So I'm a dumbass and the previous owner was a dumbass too or just didn't care.. :bash: but I've been running around with 4:10's with a stock speedo gear for what my odometer tells me is 20k miles (I think, may have to check my records). The gears that came out at that time were 3:73 from the...

So a guy local to me posted that he wanted to swap his '01 Cobra IRS for a SRA. His is bone stock. Mine has FRPP aluminum DS, FRPP 4:10's, master install kit (every bearing in rearend is new), lowering springs. So what do you think? Is it a good deal? I want to eventually put the FTBR kit...

UPDATED: Had longblock assembled by local machine shop. Same machine shop did a 5-angle valve job and rebuild on the heads. Their porting specialist (also a friend of mine) ported the heads before they received them. In the end I had an engine with an extra FREEZE PLUG in my passenger side...

So my car was never supposed to be down this long.. :nonono: But it hasn't run since June of 2010. Before I tore it down it had a nagging EVAP code that I just couldn't get rid of. Also was leaking gas if filled all the way full. Replaced the evap canister as well as the filler neck...

Went by auto-zone and picked up the motorcraft 5w20 synth blend that was recommended for break in but I wanted a better second opinion. Looking for my build receipt not sure if the ring type is listed. I know that moly vs stainless rings have different break-in requirements. Also the...

Been combing the net for this answer.. I have already discovered that the red strap leading to my chassis is supposed to bolt to my engine mount stud. However, I have what looks like a black ground coming off the wiring harness.. Does this mount to the same stud?? I don't remember two...

Sleepers - YouTube Seriously **** this chump and his attitude. He calls himself an "enthusiast" lmfao. I think people like this are just pathetic. If he REALLY loved cars, if he was really an ENTHUSIAST, he would love everything about them just like we do. By that I mean the sound, the...

So I've been in the car business for over 10 years now and I finally got the opportunity to attend the SEMA show. My boss offers to buy us tickets through another company he's invested in, Van Works. Told me his manager purchased all our tickets on October 12th. I booked my flight and hotel...

Hey guys having a hard time finding pictures to see how this all goes back together. I took many 2 years ago when I pulled the engine and started this whole project but they are on the hard drive of a retired desktop, moved twice since then.. You know how stuff like that goes. Anyhow it...

This is a forged shortblock out of another car. I bought it from a local guy and took it straight to the machine shop to have them do a rebuild on it, then put my heads, cams, timing, new oil pump, etc. to make a longblock. All was good except they needed one new piston and they said 2 ARP...

Last dyno before the rebuild made 460 tq at the wheels. The 11" FRPP clutch seems to have been working pretty well with that power level. New engine has slightly ported heads and 9.85:1 compression. Should see a bump in power but I'm leaving the boost alone for now. I wouldn't expect more...

My idea is to mimic the look of the 03 cobra bumper on my 97 by putting some matte black vinyl over the middle of the bumper like where the 03 has the muted look. Then I was thinking matte black vinyl in the COBRA lettering would be a nice subtle touch too. (not into the chrome letters at...

Just got these back from the guy who ported them. They're still getting a full 5 angle valve job, decked, assembled, etc. This is just the porting. These are going on my new shortblock with all forged manley pistons and rods, arp hardware, etc. I'm pretty excited to see how this car runs...
