Got a set of 2011 GT 18s for winter, thought I would share.
I like them alot better than the stock 05 17s and I can still keep the 20s out of the crappy WA weather (for the most part anyway:rant:).
I dont know if thats entirely true. But one thing that is nice, The GM guys will finally stop saying Mustangs need boost to be fast.
It is good to hear a real world race with comparably modded cars though, good run 351inside.
Mine was purchased as a DD and gets 70 miles put on it everyday. The only time I dont drive it is when it snows. Now my Fox on the other hand, its lucky if it gets driven once a month. Seems kinda backwards doesnt it?
+1 on the leak-down test. A compression test will tell you which cylinder is weak but a leak-down can help you pin-point the actual issue (exhaust or intake valve, piston ring, even a head gasket).
Hoepfully it isnt something major, good luck.
Thanks Hemi and FlyByNight. I miss that car dearly.
FlyByNight, your story reminded me of a time back when I had my Merkur. Me and a buddy were out cruising around and we rolled up next to this 67-8 Mustang coupe. My buddy asked them if they wanted to race and they asked what my car had in...
