    Default Questions about a Mustang

    Got a 2000 Mustang V6 - Lots of Mods but dont think it matters ? ? ?
    Anyways - Auto parts place said this model does'nt have Doughnut (sp?) Gaskets.. I have a leak where manifold bolts to Piping for 02 and cat.. What seals it? The bolts are tight.. It does have a Cat back system on it - but dont remember what kind, work was done by Dugan Racing about 4yrs ago.. any ideas would help.

    My advice, go ahead and sell the mustang :P

    Just kidding.. I really don't know anything about whether those have a gasket or not, but i would think that they do. Shouldn't all exhausts have one there? Although it is an american car... who knows about them...

    Haha i feel ya . I guess you could call the dealer and ask them. That is if its not all new exhaust where you need the gasket. Your only other option would be to pull it apart and see whats there... Or just take it to an exhaust shop and make them do it for like $50...

    Yep, Her year model we did our home work before buying - Tests showed the v6 pulled the GT off the line then got out ran down the track. So we got the v6 ,
    Changed the gear ratio, Bolt on full time posy rearend , Diablo chip, Cold air intake, upgraded wheels and tires, Cat back dual exhaust and a few other mods Blackout headlights, tint,door vent shades , Black back 3rd gen Alteza tails and more from Dugan Racing. THe results where gettin the Gt off the launch , and managed to stay in front .. needless to say it pissed off alot of Gt's.. Heres a pic

    haha bullshit on any V6 like that pulling on a GT unless the gt owner can't drive. That model V6 has 190 hp and a GT has 260 hp. A well driven 99-04 GT can run a 13.9@100+ in the 1/4. Also there aren't any gaskets where you are talking about (hpipe to header). its a ball and socket fitting.

    You'll be hardpressed to find guys that can get stock GT's to run 13.9's. You have to be a really good driver otherwise your probably running low 14's.

    V6 Mustang with mods interesting. cool but interesting. I second the prospeed suggestion. But if you can wait a week 1/2 it would be better. they are buried with cars until Fun Ford and then are out Thursday April 6th through that sunday. Jeff and Jason are your contacts and here is the number 770-222-5015

    I agree. Sell it. the 3.8 is almost worthless.
