    Where to get Service in Orange County California?

    I just got my car back from Kendall at Cooltech, it's worth the drive up there and a cool place to hang out for a few hours while they do the service, you won't be disappointed.

    Great Experience with Cooltech and Kendall

    On Friday I dropped the GT off with Kendall and his son for a transaxle cooler, clutch, and Accufab exhaust. Kendall's son had the car apart in no time and Kendall took me for a spin and threw me the keys to his Boss 302 Laguna Seca with the track key, that was some serious fun!!! What a great...

    OEM Clutch vs Stillen

    I ended going to see Kendall and used the stock clutch given its a pulley/tune, feels like the day I got it.

    2005 FGT & 2008 GT 500KR (Package Deal Only)

    Stephen, all due respect here as we have talked about the yellow 68 Fastback that I sold that you once owned. I appreciate what you do for the hobby. The GT is worth about its sticker value in 2005, what color is it btw? A 2008KR with 100 miles on it although silver and blue down the street is...

    Halfshaft bolts for newbies

    My Dad was a project manager for TRW/Northrup for the Avionics system in the f-18 here in San Diego. Miramar Air Strip (former top gun location) is about 4 miles away. The F-18's fly in groups of 2 to 6 planes over our house after the climb to about 10,000 feet and to the desert for war games...

    OEM Clutch vs Stillen

    Here's what lead to the pre-mature demise of my clutch. I had stock clutch fluid in the car, I made about 8-9 1/4 mile passes in 90 minutes, probably boiled a little fluid. Being a new owner of a GT I was not aware of the issues others experienced with stock clutch fluid. Fast forward 20 months...

    OEM Clutch vs Stillen

    I forget who it was but Ed Sims and I were drag racing at Infineon Raceway in 2010 at SAAC 35. We were killing everyone running about 130-135mph 1/4 miles. A third GT showed up and he did a 3rd gear start and unleashed the worlds best burnout of all time and ended his day after that with no...

    OEM Clutch vs Stillen

    I know there is a thread out there on this but some of it is dated. I have a Heritage with a Hefner Pulley and Tune. I ran about 10 1/4 miles on a drag strip and 2 days of open track and the clutch is ready for a change at 6500 miles. I drive it fairly aggressive when I do drive and give its...

    The 23rd annual Fabulous Fords Show was yesterday at Knotts Berry Farm in Orange County. About 1000 cars including some drag pintos:) and a few GT's. I brought both my 68' GT500KR convertibles. It was a fun day until about 2pm when I learned of "Jack's" passing at Mojave. Thoughts and prayers to...

    THE Tire Thread

    I put 6000 miles on my Scudera's, changed the rears fir to new ones for 2 track days at 31psi, loved them... Pumped them up to 40psi for the 350 miles back to San Diego, love them. However, I'm considering getting new wheels and tires for track days, sounds like Hoosiers, what wheels?? B
