    Overheating issues with new Griffin Radiator

    Whats up guys. I just swapped out my stock radiator and fan for one of those short, thick Griffin units so I will have enough room for my supercharger. Because this radiator is a lot shorter than the stock one, the stock fan shroud is too tall for it. I had a guy build me a very nice custom...

    How do I mount a fuel pressure sender

    I'm running lean and am trying to add a fuel pressure gauge to my 95 so I can get the fuel pressure back to normal (already installed the adjustable regulator). I got a autometer gauge and sender from a guy off of a mustang forum, and it already includes a the brass banjo adaptor and a 45...

    Cleaning tranny cooler

    I'm on my original tranny right now and it is slipping bad and about to go out on me. I'm about to put in a new tranny and am concerned about reusing the aftermarket tranny cooler that is in the car right now.

    Location for remote oil filter

    Is there a consensus on where to relocate your oil filter to? I've heard people mounting it in the wheel well area, but I'd be worried about debris hitting it.

    Aftermarket radiators?

    Just curious, what radiators do all the high HP people on this forum use. By high HP I mean over 400. I need something for my supercharged Mark I'm building, so it cannot interfere with the supercharger. What fits?

    Which harmonic balancer for built engine

    I'm starting to gather all my pieces for my supercharged stroker Mark VIII. I got Sean Hylands book on the 4.6, and he had some interesting stuff to say about the harmonic balancers. Several different ones were used over the years on different cars. There is a theory that the frequent problem...

    5.0 Big bore or stroker

    I just got my junkyard 4.6 block that I'm going to build a supercharged 5.0 with. I had planned to go the big bore route because it allows for higher rpms, better filling of the cylinder, and it unshrowds the valves more. However, when I talked to Houston Performance about getting the engine...
