If you know alot this tread is for you...
I seem to have a new question everyday and being i haven't posted in a while i'll put them all in here [8D]
What are the stock heads on a 89 lx?
What do you think of ported E7TE Heads?
The guy that sold me the car said it has a Stage 1 cam in it... What are the kinds of Stages 1 cams?
When the stock clutches go bad, do they get very hard? Mine is going i'm pretty sure.. My friend has a king cobra clutch in his 95 cobra and its going bad but very easy to press... Confusing the hell outta me
Do they have a few different kinds of Saleen spoilers? 1 with the 3rd brake light and 1 without? Or do they make replicas like that.
How long does it take you to drop the trans outta your cars?
Weather Stripping, how much do you guys pay for it for the whole car?
I have the 85 mph speedo, Would the Saleen 160 mph speedo directly fit into the car?
How many of you have gotten pulled over just so the cop can look at your cars?

RE: If you know alot this tread is for you...
i can only answer a couple of your questions....
the one about your clutch.... when it is going bad it will start slipping... its easy to notice because your RPM's will go up but you wont be accelerating... about the whole hard to push in i dont think thats a good indication of how to tell.... the king cobra is supposed to feel lighter like that because its a racing clutch...
i got my tranny out in about 6 hours of work time... but i ran into problems when pulling mine off... the last person that put everything back together used a lot of different sized nuts, stripped about half of those and it was just a pain in my ***... had to cut 2 bolts with a dremel... so hopefully u will have better luck!!
just about everyone that sells parts for mustangs has weather stripping.... google will be your friend there!
hope this helps ya out

RE: If you know alot this tread is for you...
1. e7s
2. they can be ported out to flow quite well
3. stage 1 usually refers to it being a mild grind, good for lightly modded engines. check w/ him on the brand, may be a trickflow
4. what do you mean hard? usually the slip more and are harder to get in gear is a sign of going out
5. dont have a clue i hate saleen spoilers
6. dropping trans can take 15 minutes or it can take a while, depends on if you have all the tools ready and know what you're doing
7. not a clue, check 5.0resto
8. ya, probably quite expensive though

RE: If you know alot this tread is for you...
you clutch might be hard to press because your bearing retainer might be going bad
i can get my tranny out in about 45 min. about 75min. to put it in (with out a hoist and using hand tools)
20-30 min. to take it out and about 45 min to put it in (with hoist and air tools)
and i've been pulled over 4 times in 48 hours so cops could look at my car (mustangs/sports cars are rare when i live, everyone drives trucks[:'(])
sorry i couldn't answer the rest of the ?'s for you

- I think porting the stock heads are worthless unless you are doing it yourself because your are bored and REALLY cant afford anything else.
- Im sure he is talking about a TrickFlow Stage 1 cam. Not to many other companies go by "Stages"
- I only thought that there was one kind of Saleen spoiler but I may be wrong.
- trans depends if its auto or manual
- I get my weather stripping dirt cheap from a local vendor for CJ Pony Parts.
- I have never gotten pulled over at all..... yet.
