I have recently acquired a 1968 302 engine originally off of a Galixy. It had a 2 barrel intake but i removed that to put a four barrel intake on. I am wondering what some cheap and easy things to do are, to add power to the engine. I would like to invest in a cam and heads but I'm not really...

It's been a while since I've been on here but I swapped my gt with a 5.4 2 valve, mod list is bbk shorty headers, procomp intake manifold with adapters, 75mm throttle body and plenum and cheap cold air intake, so it's mostly stock, also has stock gt ecu completely untuned it's still got the...

Hi guys, So I have a 2000 GT standard. My problem recently is that if I was to shift into 2nd gear (or any gear) and I'm sitting at 900-1300 revs, my car starts to "sputter" and jerk if I go hard on the gas. Sputter isn't necessarily the right word, but it suffers at low torque to give me power...

Hey all, Looking to get a set of headers for my 351w in a 65 mustang. Theres a set of swap mid length headers out there by Hedman that I want. I have read that long tube headers give better mid to high rpm performance and the mid lengths give better low end to mid range power (I spend more...

Hey guys! I'm new here and haven't had much experience with my Mustang yet. I received a 1965 stang from my grandma as a first car last year and I am planning on working on it this summer. After I get her up and running again and I get her nice and safe, I'd love to get a new engine to show up...

Hey all, I was wondering if someone here could give me a reasonable estimate on what a 351w with a performer intake, 600cfm carb, Comp XE268h cam, Hedman mid length headers, full dual exhaust, electronic ignition but stock heads (soon to go) would be putting down? Thanks.

Hey guys I've had my 03 mustang gt and u was wondering what parts for the engine to get more hp can I buy around a $1000. Everything is stock except my cold air intake. Thanks

Anyone use this app?

Hey guys... The question is.... Doesn't 129 lbs of torque seem like a little too much for a panhard bar? I haven't even gotten to 129 lbs yet and the bolt is starting to bend the metal of where it goes through. Anyone who can share their experiences? I'm kinda freaking out to OVER TIGHT IT...

I am having problems with my acceleration, I recently read a thread on this site of a person with the same problem and it was clogged cats. My car feels like it is hauling a huge trailer behind it I have to press the gas almost all the way down to accelerate. I do think clogged cats have to do...

Ok so i've been reading alot of stuff on the internet about what torque is and hp is but i just cant figure out some stuff, like the best time to shift (like during a race). so heres the question. lets say im racing (legally :winks) and my mustang has a torque peak of 225 @ 2750rpm and a peak...

I have a 5.0 with some decent mods as seen in my signature and I want to do a non lock up torque converter, lentech valve body which ive heard so many good things about, and 3:73 gears and she should be a beast. With my cam it says that I will not even need a converter but I want to get one if...

It's starting to get cold in Socal (50ish degrees :shiny:) and i've noticed my 01GT isn't pulling as hard as it normally does.. Could it be because of the temperature?

I recently installed a new cam in my 1997 3.8L. The reccomended stall speed is around 3000 rpm. I'm trying figure out wether I need a lockup or a non-lockup torque converter. I dont know much about them. Any input would be welcome. Thanks in Advance.

Okay I've seen more than a few posts with people commenting about "back pressure" in exhaust setups and it's affect on low end torque, and I just wanted to clear things up for any confusion. "Back pressure" is not necessary for a 4 stroke engine. Where people get this idea of back pressure...

Whats up everyone? How much peak power and torque should I see with this application? 306cid, flat top pistons with larger valve relieves, 3" stroke with 5.090 rods (306), Edelbrock Proformer RPM heads, Ford Racing E cam, TFS Track Heat upper and lower intake, BBK 70mm throttle body. I've also...

Has anyone installed these? If so did it help at high RPM shifting? Especially between 2nd and 3rd? Thanks!

Hey, just recently bought a 95 GT and it is in decent condition. I'm looking to upgrade everything, speed, handling, acceleration, etc. Any ideas on what, where, and what brand to get? Thanks
