I'm not real sure about the x stereo(because i never had a stock stereo), but i know there's a handfull of ford stereos that you can take the face off (be careful) and pull the bulb with a pair of needle nose. Take it to pep boys and match it up.

guys, as far as hiding it for warranty reasons, i don't think it's necessary. Cold air intakes are not classified as parts that could cause engine or drivetrain damage. I found this out at my local dealer when checking to see if they would void my warranty if i changed a few things. Then i...

James, just to let you know the numbers i speak of are "out of the box numbers" . Of course ported heads will produce significant gains. The statement good low mid range makes a difference in this conversation, The cam doesn't make much more horsepower, it just makes it in different places.

Seems to be, that we are on the same level. Takes an hour through the message board to convey thoughts that would of only taken a minute in person. It's funny all that dubb wanted was some simple advice and we all turned it into a cam debate.

exp, I've had a 1990 mustang since 93, all my friends have them and i live 15 mins from 2 shops tand 45 mins. from another,t hat get plenty of fastfords and 5.0 magazine coverage, 30 horses at the rear wheels is insane, it's more like 10. without heads. A mustang with gt40x heads (100 times...

black out, this is not the 80's

First off, i checked about the cobra meter swap, my sources say that it shouldn't be done, the sensor is calibrated for the meter size as well as the injectors. Guys, the cam is not real beneficial without heads. It is a proven fact in 5.0's. Read any mustang magazine or call any ford...

I don't think you need the spacer for the nitrous, but don't quote me on that. They definitely make the headers because i have them, i just don't know where to get them now.

James, i do like the cam swap, but as i said, it's a ton of work. might as well port and polish the heads while your at it. He also might have a hot motor. Cam alone isn't worth much. Maybe 10-15 hp. certainly not enough to equal 75. 5.0's are incredibly inconsistant. His x was...

Don't waste your money on the tb spacer, and i prefer pro m for the mass air. Still though headers never actually do too much, they are just a stop on the road to more hp. Would i buy them. Yes.

James, How bout just changing the rockers to 1.72's the cam is alot of work. I have the e cam in my stang and that was alot of work with the motor out. i really can't see the benefit in an 80mm mass air though, at least in his case, 70 is a fair size, 4 bills for a pro m is alot...

It probably won't kick any ass, but it's a start. Mines not a 4.0 but i have experience with headers, in general. you can't expect much more than 5-10 hp. Not enough to feel in your foot when you stomp on it, but it will be there.

Rocket, out of curiousity what kind of block and rods are you using? You gotta love how they made the zex kit, i have the old nos dry kit on my mustang, what a mess that was to intall, too many parts , and too much additives to put on the threads to keep them from leaking.

yup, you don't need the throttle body, 70mm is worthless without lots of hp. Underdrive pullies would be a waste even if they had em. The 5-8 hp they give on a mustang causes more trouble than good. I tried the phenolic on my 5.0 mustang, to me it's another worthless mod. I like the mass air...

Local ford dealer probably has them in stock since i'm sure they are used on more than one vehicle. Though i don't think your little blow torch is going to ruin the old bolts. If you reuse them make sure to use some locktite, and check to see if they are tight every couple times you drive...

Go to a store, anywhere almost, buy a cheap torch, it's not going to cost much. you only need it once. Heat um up for a while and they will come off. It definetely works. I had to do it on my mustang, not too long ago.

If you rotate the rear wheels while the truck is in the air are the bolts now on the bottom? Accessable. Look in the phone book, you can probably find either a junk yard or a place that specializes in driveshafts. Believe it or not they are out there. And from what i get from your...

Check with expo5.0 , i think he's the one that did the rear posts with it. But sounds to me like to much bending to do the mirrors.

you need the flange. If you didn't buy the outrageused priced kit, you did not get it. If you can return it. Most guys on here like the kkm kit, seems to be the only thing of reasonable price.

did you clean all the mud out of your wheels, probably just unbalance because it full of dirt.

In my case 5 mph up and then down is alot, not to mention it accelerates hard. Normal cruise control does 1 maybe 2 mph to regulate for inclines and declines. Imagine putting your foot to the floor and then letting off. If jeisbell is experiencing this, like me, It makes the cruise control...

Jeisbell, my mustang does the same thing, in 5 mph increments. Be sure to post the cure if you find one.

I agree with shurup, Check the battery again, What kind is it? I've had batteries that read good, but weren't. Did you try jump starting it? With it being jumped run a screw driver across the solenoid, if that doesn't work, it's probably not the solenoid. I also agree that cheap wires...

It's not too bad by me either, pot holes aren't the problem it's the morons that tear the road up, and fix it half ass'ed. My tight suspension feels like my truck is going to flip over. We should keep our roads like they do the autobahn. Ever see the strick maintainence they keep due to...

I'm anti raceway park these days, went at the end of last summer for the swap meet and car show, i though it sucked, nothing i liked for my mustang. It was like a redneck fest. Felt like i should knock a few of my teeth out and roll around in the mud before i went, so i wouldn't stick out...
