    Lisle broken spark plug tool... for rent

    A BIG thank you to Taxman for lending the tool out to me. He sent it on Wednesday and it was in my mailbox on Friday. LUCKILY no spark plugs broke off and I didn't need the tool. They creaked like hell coming out, but I got them. WHEW! Great service for the folks at s197 for sure! :beer:

    Spark plug swap, quick question.

    96k on the odometer and this is the first time I have changed the plugs. I consider this a lucky day considering what others have gone through with these stupid plugs.

    Spark plug swap, quick question.

    that will be a couple months.. It smoked like crazy when I fired it up a few minutes ago, but appears to be fine now. Thanks for the help!

    Spark plug swap, quick question.

    Got the old plugs out using the TSB method, broke none. YAY! I did a search on multiple forums and didn't get a definitive answer to this question. Because I used PB on all 8 plugs overnight (probably a tablespoon per plug), should I change the oil after putting in the new plugs? Maybe I'm...

    DIY: Black out Chrome Emblems

    I did this today, maybe because I'm not good at this stuff it didn't work that well. Also, it is literally 109 degrees today so that might not have help either. When I was done with a few coats it looked like there was little pock marks all over it. I might just scrape it off and try it...

    4.6L 3V Build

    I just read this entire thread in between homework sessions, WOW! Unbelievable attention to detail during this build, I am curious to see how this engine will perform over the years. Judging by the work put in, I would think its rock solid for a while. The only thing whatsoever that would have...

    I wanna hit the 12's...help me

    Yeah, a 2.1 with DR's is way off. So is 101 trap speed. An intake/headers/OR-H/cam/tune car should be north of 105 I would think. Tune issue maybe? Still think gears and LCA would help a lot considering its 3.31 gears.

    I wanna hit the 12's...help me

    I think the jump from 3.31s to 4.10s would really improve your ET. Since you already have DR's, bring on the gears.

    How much would 4.10's help?

    Today, on the way to my fathers day golf tourney the roads were empty and I wanted to get on it a bit. It's Arizona so at 6am it was 80 degrees and climbing. Even with 3.55s revving it to 3500 and slipping the clutch I was spinning in first like crazy. It makes me think that 4.10s are going...

    About to replace struts, should I upgrade to GT500 mounts?

    I am about to do this too, yes get the updated strut mounts. I hear my stock 05s clunking all the time..

    How much would 4.10's help?

    Darkzide, Do you think you could have got into the 12s without some of your suspension mods? I ask only because I doubt I will go as far as you did suspension wise, but would still like to hit 12s..

    How much would 4.10's help?

    Im really only at the track once in a while.. 99% of the time im just punching it from a roll in first or second on my way to work or home.. the goal is essentially to make the car more fun during that time. Aaaaaaand if i could squeeze a 12 second pass out of it, that wouldn't hurt anything...

    How much would 4.10's help?

    This is what I was hoping to hear.. Because the mods I've done so far have helped a little bit in terms of my "butt dyno", so I really want something to take the car to the next level. Soooo how about brand recommendations, what do you guys use??? Ford racing?

    How much would 4.10's help?

    I was thinking about dropping the stock radiator support in favor of a lighter tubular style one as well, is this cheap mod worthwhile? Thanks for the assistance everybody.

    I want your car, haha. Am i headed in the right directon with a gear install next? I guess in terms of bang for my buck that is..

    How much would 4.10's help?

    That's a great time and I would love to have that trap speed as well. I'm sure I need more time behind the wheel at the track to lay down some better times. I have run the car probably 20 times at the track and I am very consistent(ly slow) with my 60 foot times and ET. 99% of the time I am...

    How much would 4.10's help?

    I am wanting to do 4.10s in my car, and am wondering if people have run their cars before and after install and what their results were? I am just curious what I can expect in terms of overall added fun, better track times, etc. my current setup: 05gt manual trans, jlt intake/bama tune, x...

    Suspension clunking / popping..

    I am guessing people with GT500s sell those things for cheap.. Definitely a worthwhile upgrade if you can get them for cheap and are looking to tighten things up a bit.
