    Hey folks! I just dropped in my engine, and a transmission for a friend. He claimed it would all be direct fit drop in. He decided to swap his TR2650 out for a t45 also. After putting in the engine, and TRIPLE CHECKING engine mounts.... I found that the transmission tailshaft seemed to be about...

    Changing out the harmonic balancer on my 1999 mustang gt. While trying to get the center bolt off I twisted the pulley counter clockwise maybe 2 rotations before my gut told me to stop, googled it and about had a heart attack but I was wondering if I should really be worried and how I should...

    I have a 2008 Bullitt mustang with a paxton 2200 on it. As I was coming home from work the entire car completely shut down. There were no waring signs. I got out to see if part of the charge tubing and blown off and there was nothing missing. I was able to start the car and limp it home. when I...

    So I've alway been a fan of Mustangs, especially the S197s. New to the pony world and learning everyday. I recently got my first Mustang which is a 2008 4.6 v8 gt deluxe convertible. I love the look, but wanted to give it that old school look and ordered a Classic Design Customs (CDC) classic...

    Hey guys. I have a 99 gt 4.6 that I’ve had for about 7 years now. Last week I started to notice a clunking sound coming from what sounded like the trunk area. It sounds like luggage or a Bowling ball banging around back there. I only really hear it when I’m turning as of now. I havnt driven on...

    I have a 2000 4.6. I was driving home from the airport tonight and I noticed a quiet whistling noise. I started investigating it a little and it seems to be coming from the front of the engine and the pitch correlates with the rpm. Any clues on what that might be?

    Recently bought a sn95 from market place (my first mistake) but the previous owners had slammed it on the ground and bc of that the tires completely rubbed the fender harness to the point where all the wires were grounding on each other, i was able to repair the harness and everything was...

    Do 4.6 motors have a code name other than 4.6 3v or 4.6 2v? Just like the 4.6 4vs would be called cobras, 5.0s are coyotes, 3.7s are cyclones etc.?

    I'm planning on building a new edge mustang on some sort of budget. What I'm looking for is a decently fast n/a factory new edge from Ford that I can use as a starter. I just need the 0 60 and 1/4 mile times for all 4 vehicles.

    Hey all, so this isn’t a major issue with my car yet and I have no CEL, but I’d like to make sure it won’t become a bigger problem in the future and hopefully prevent it, if anything, while it’s still minor. So I have a manual, and the issue is that when I’m taking off from a light and I bring...

    after driving for a decent period of time and pulling into my garage, shutting down the car, within about a minute or two a loud popping type cracking noise will come from what appears to be around the rear of engine. I can only describe it as a single pop noise at a time and will continue to do...

    Hey guys it's me again. I own a 07 Mustang GT. I always thought to myself instead of doing a coyote swap, why not do something different? Instead Cobra swap it. But 03 - 04 Cobra engine swap kits are very expensive. But I thought of 2 more ideas I can go with and they may sound stupid. Since the...

    My 2002 mustang v6 has low compression on 4 cylinders and I’ve decided to do an engine swap instead of rebuilding the motor again. I have acquired a donor car for an extremely decent price from a friend. It’s a 1998 Mustang gt. His original motor spun a bearing and he has found a replacement...

    Hi Everyone, Just walked out to my 1997 Cobra to try and start it and it wont….Couple things It starts up immedietely on the first try and then dies (I can rev it for a half second but it still dies) If you try to start it again without cycling the key, it just turns over (no sputtering or...

    UPDATE: Rocker Arm Snapped Off - Cylinder 1 2005 Mustang GT 53k miles — Was driving home one night, and my exhaust seemed to get a bit louder. It’s fully straight piped. At idle once warmed up, I can hear this horrible tap at idle that goes away when giving the car some gas. I have a misfire...

    Hey all! I don't own a Mustang, I'm mainly here for 4.6l engine and 4R70W performance related content. This is my baby, "The Big Comfy Couch", aka "The NaniSLAB". I bought this '96 Grand Marquis from my best friend's 92 year-old grandma (Nani). I've known this car since I was in Junior High. One...

    Yesterday started up my car, stopped for gas on my way to work. After getting gas, it wouldn't start back up. After about 5 minutes, it started again but was having some weird power loss, bucking, and I think it was misfiring, all when I got to around 1500 RPM. I drove it under 1500 for about a...

    Hey All, I recently picked up a 97 Cobra and am currently fixing a TON of little things throughout. One thing that I have a question about is the running temps on this car. The previous owner noted that there is a performance thermostat on the vehicle which causes it to run hot. That being...

    Ford's been full-send on overhead-cam V8s since the mod motor launched way back in 1990. Now, all of a sudden, they're going back to pushrods in their latest great big 7.3L engine. So what's the difference, and why pick pushrods over ocks and docks? And what does that even mean? Every engine...
