    What did you do to your Boss 302 or S197 today?

    TMOers,At long last, I installed a polyurethane insert in the transmission bushing. I cut a 1.5" hold in the horizontal web to minimize NVH. Why did I not do this sooner? Even toodling to work with 2,200 rpm shifts, the difference is impressive: no nibble in 1-2, 2-3 snick, 3-4 snick...

    Ford Racing 1 Pc driveshaft

    SPDBOSS,I still have the 2-piece stock driveshaft (for now) but I took the transmisison cross-member off to install the MGW shifter. The cross-member bolts are fairly long. I don't recall if the bolts go through captive nuts or tapped holes but you can take a look to see how far the bolt...

    Caster / camber plates

    eng90,I'm a little late to the party but I'll offer some info to augment the excellent advice already provided by seasoned TMOers.There are little index marks (for camber) on the top of the plate. They're kind of hard to see but get a good flashlight and you'll see them. Let me state...

    LCA Relocation Brackets...

    s9669s,Disclaimer: not a track rat or dragstripper.LCA brackets will certainly greatly reduce wheel hop. P springs dropped the rear by about 1" (not drastic at all) but the LCAs pointed down (back-to-front) and wheel hop was quite bad on wet roads and cool ambient temperatures (Fall...

    What did you do to your Boss 302 or S197 today?

    Howdy TMO-ers,At last, I have something to post.Installed Vorshlag caster/camber plates! Gorgeous hardware, really well made. It was not a tough job although the first side took much longer than the second since I was taking my time and was a bit nervous when first doing the spring...

    TMBOSS,Thank you for the welcome. I like the subtle nudge to consider heading to the track. ;)I recently saw a thread (on another forum but might be posted also at TMO) about putting GT350 front brakes on a '11/12 or '13/14 GT (or Boss). Priced out at about $1,700 which seems like a steal...

    Howdy TMOers,Long time lurker and admirer of the venerable BOSS Mustangs. And the Three Stooges (hence, screename). I've got a 2012 GT with some suspension mods but I don't frequent the drag strip or the track, I am just an enthusiast and always looking to improve what Ford delivered...
