when doing a PI manifold swap, does it matter what kind of cylinder heads you have? i have a 97 cougar (same pre-99 engine that the mustang has) and i was wondering if i pulled a pi manifold from a post -01 mustang,towncar or crown vic from a junkyard if it would work...
@malleymyster it works but you need some RTV sealant to plug a coolant passage that isnt used by the PI manifold, along with a new coolant pipe running from your water pump along the block valley. Also be sure to use PI (2001) manifild gaskets. The ports from the heads to the manifold are lightly different, but doesnt pose an issue if you use the PI manifold gasket. consult a forum for more details. good luck if you havent done it, and if you have, tell us how it turned out.
cool ride man it looks and sounds great i have one just like it 96 gt, and its even the same color as yours hey how hard was it to put the h pipe on? i was under my car looking at the stock h pipe and it looks like it gona be a bitch to take off any advice for me?thanks
@everettemetoyer actually swapping out the H-pipe is about as simple DIY exhaust project as it gets... just make sure the car is supported with jack stands.... better safe than sorry.
Yes I did. Although, if you want, a good tire set up that I have now are Dunlop Straight Lined Tires for cornering on the front. They really help with the corners, and I would stick with Khumo Super Sports Soft compound on the back. They dont let the rear slip at all unless it is raining hard. Everything else is exact though. I would recomend upgrading to cobra disc brakes if possible. I have a hard time stoping.
hard to get traction huh! awesome video you drive like me!! i got a 96 gt with a host of add ons including 17x10 rear rims. it still will lay some rubber though.
Thanks man. It is hard to keep traction. I want some 1999 Cobra R Rims deep well 10.5 rear and 9 Front. Wrapped with M/T. Lotta money in that though. I would rather go for power for now. Lol. Working on a set of 66mm Twin Turbos. Combo with a GT40 set of ported and polished heads to go with it. Should be nice when I work out the kinks with the tune.
how much are the gt 40 heads?? i just got a 96 and i am going to put the pi heads in it... also do you know where i can get a good deal on a supercharger or turbo?? my cousins can do all the labor..i think...
