Wheels were changed because I got a flat and 2/3 rims had sizeable dents.. still have them and plan to fix them up one day
I have a 1995 F350 XLT with regular gauges and I’m looking at replacing it with a gauge cluster that comes in the Lightning series which comes with the 120mph gauge. Typically I’ve read that if you are gonna change gauge cluster you wanna stay 92-93 and 94-95 when it comes to regular f150-f350. Is that still the same with dealing with the Lightning series? Meaning if I want a gauge cluster from a Lightning to fit in my truck I would have to get a 1994 or 1995 Ford Lightning gauge cluster or would the 1993 gauge cluster work?
I own a 96 Cobra with 78k with a vortech v1. Just asking for opinions on weight and oil brand for my car. I live in NY State. I currently use Royal Purple 5w20.
Pic from 2009 or 2010 I'd guess. My dad was a used car dealer when I was growing up, and every once in a while we would get some really fun cars in. <30k miles in the pic, supercharged, mint Recaro seats that literally didn't look sat in. I miss this car.
I have an 03 sonic blue lightning. The stock fronts wheels fit the wheel well nicely with the original tire size, but the rears leave too much of a gap. Has anyone ran the SVE 20x10 replica wheels in the back? I’m thinking they would allow me to keep the rake I like and fill out the wheel well better.
My Project for this spring/summer
My 17k mile cobra finally developed the notorious “head tick” on the driver side. I picked up a set of used Aviator heads with the revised cooling passages. Should I still add a head cooling mod or will the new heads be just fine? The car is located in Phoenix but does not get driven in the summer time. I’m going to do clutch replacement and k member as well since the engine is coming out.
I blew a head gasket and the thermostat housing. My car previously had a small oil leak so instead of replacing the parts I’d like to purchase a new engine. Where would I be able to acquire a new engine , and would a mechanic install it?
I have a 2002 ford focus svt. I’m thinking about turboing it to give it a little extra kick. (230-250hp) where would the best galley to put my oil feed line? would I need a scavenger pump if it’s low on the block?
Brother has an svt focus sitting in his garage took the key out but wasn’t paying attention at the time. Which is the ignition key?
