ANYONE can do a upper/lower manifold. There is nothing "special" about it. Just remember where you pulled this out of and knowing where to put it back in lol
I dunno about that..haha, my friend was doing something to his 94 one time and 'he knew what he was doing'...man he got that car so f*cked up he had to sell it because they couldnt figure out what was wrong with it. He had all kinds of wires criss-crossed and he was trying to wire his Tach up and ran the wires through the door jam, and everytime he shut the door, the door shut on the wires and mashed them between the weather stripping and the door. He totally f*cked that car up before it was said and done.

And he was trying to put a Cobra frong bumber on and couldnt get it all the way on, so he duct tapes it to the hood, so when you went to open the hood, you had to un-do the duct tape and have something hold the bumper up or it would sag.

go to the library with some chnage, grab the mustang chilton manual and read up and make copys of what to do. the hardedst part is getting the distrbuter lined up, take a peice of chalk and mark the distubers shaft with a line and contine the line on the intake. when you put it in make shure the lines match and you dont spin it. everything else is unbolting and cleaning up.

Dude if your car sounds like a lawn mower, I'll bet you a dollar that it's one of you blew one of your headers gaskets. Especially since you said that it keeps getting louder.
