    Need a new clutch and flywheel

    Recently replaced the clutch/flywheel in my 06. Order the part from Ford then in a month, reorder, as Ford will cancel if not delivered... without asking if you still want it. Contact Ford customer service. I don't believe Stillen or Spec are still making a clutch for the GT. I Tried them. GT...

    Replacement tire problems

    I have gone through 2 sets of rears and 1 of fronts with the Bridgestones (at 40,000miles). They worked very well. Compared to the Eagles, they are less expensive, quieter, stickier, seem to last longer, and are probably more readily available. Not really any downside. On an aside note, what...

    So What are You Planning to do With or On Your FGT This Year?

    Brake Caliper Clearance

    Being only 200 miles or so from Elite Autos in Jonesboro, I would think that trip would be worth it just to look at the operation. Shelby Smith, highly respected well known sales service detailing. Another option, hydraulic low profile jack. Can lift entire one side if you use the right lift...

    Lambo doors

    If you do a lot of shows, a fun thing to do is ask people "why do the doors (stock) open that way?'' This results in the conversation about LeMans, drivers on one side of the track, cars on the other, flag drops, the run across and the doors facilitating a quicker entry. Tribute to the...
