    Oil filter???

    Again, this is just my personal opinion, but when I get my Trilogy supercharger installed on my car (next month, hopefully) I won't run the oil beyond 3,000 to 4,000 miles. In fact, I probably won't run it past 2,000 or 3,000 miles. This is for two reasons: 1) I only put about 350 - 500...

    Oil filter???

    Rick, Here's the bottom line: Any of the modern oils will work well. Some may work better than others, particularly depending on how the oil will be "pushed" - towing, hot & dusty climate, etc. Ford recommends 5W20 in its modular engines and all of the 5W20 UOAs are showing stellar results...

    New Member Here, some questions about Marauders

    Personally, and this is just my opinion, the extra price you'll pay for an '04 isn't worth it. The differences are too minor to justify the premium. I suggest snatching up a nice clean '03 300A if you can find one. Again, just my opinion. Good luck, and welcome to the site!

    New Orleans......unreal here

    Is it a reference to the color of that beechin' tattoo on that girl's boobs in your sig? :) Just kidding. Nice post. I agree 100%. I don't think anyone indicated anything racial in their posts. It's about thugs, criminals, hoodlums, and freeriders. In my area, that's mostly white (trash)...

    RAFFLE!!! ADDCO Swaybars!

    I get the impression this auction is for both - front and back - sway bars. Right?

    Eric, I'm sorry if somebody here offended you. But, still, I don't understand specifically which comments offended you. Would you please identify the comment(s) specifically? I spoke about criminals. Did that offend you? Not being a thorn. I don't want you to feel uncomfortable here...

    $5000 to spend

    And that is different from a 2000 CVPI, no? He was asking about a 2000 CVPI versus a Marauder.

    New Orleans......unreal here

    I see lots of stuff about rudeness and uncivilized behavior, but I don't see anything about race or ethnicity in that definition. Like I said, perhaps someone was expecting something that wasn't really there. Hypersensitive, maybe? BTW, I drive a BLACK Marauder. Does that make me racist?

    New Orleans......unreal here

    I'm not really sure who or what you're talking about. Please quote the offensive post if there was one. I didn't see any. Perhaps you're looking for something that's simply not there.

    Jack Ingram. The dude is awesome. And, just as a coincidence, I went to high school with him. He's getting pretty big these days. Also, check out: Pat Green Cross Canadian Ragweed Cory Morrow Robert Earl Keen Cooder Graw (Great band. Puts on some incredible shows!) The list goes on...

    Oil filter???

    Why? Why the 5W30, when Ford recommends 5W20 and the UOAs of 5W20 have turned in unbelievably good results? What's the point of going with a heavier weight oil? And, as you probably already know, the NAPA Gold filter is nothing more than a Wix filter that has been rebadged for sale by the...

    Oil filter???

    Rick, you did good, brother. You can't go wrong with your selections. The 5W20 oils have shown unbelievable results in used oil analyses (UOAs) with Fords, and the Motorcraft filters are held in very high regard by those "in the know." If you're ever near Houston, get with me and I'll hook...

    Trilogy # 1?? a reality now more than ever.

    Gosh, and just think what a "defective kit" this Trilogy turned out to be! Hahahaha!!! I'm so excited about getting Trilogy #150, I can't even see straight! I'm just trying to figure out what I should get on my personalized plates now: 4ZACK --- or --- TRILGY Maybe I should start a...

    Getting Gears Installed Friday...

    By the way, how much are you paying for the installation? I'm still kicking around the idea of putting in the 4.10s I previously purchased. Just haven't decided to do it yet.

    Getting Gears Installed Friday...

    Killjoy, Ditch the nasty RTV sealant and go pick up a NAPA "Victor Reinz tuffcork" gasket for about $7.00. Trust me, the next time you change the gear fluid, you'll be glad you went with the NAPA gasket. I've used them in 5 Panthers with ZERO problems whatsoever. They've very nice gaskets...

    New Orleans......unreal here

    That's not cool at all. That's no way to live, man! But, then again, most of the degenerates from New Orleans now live right here in Houston, so it's not much different in some parts of town. I wish we could load them all up on buses and send them back to Louisiana. The refugees (different...

    New Orleans......unreal here

    I think we de-annexed Louisiana back to the French, didn't we? If not, we should probably get that process started. They can even have it for free! (Just tell them to bring their social welfare system with them!)

    Oil filter???

    10W30? Good God, man, why? I digress.... Get the Motorcraft FL820S filter and your car will love you for it. I use those with Royal Purple 5W20 in my Marauder, but to each his own. Wix filters are also an excellent choice. So are Purolator PureOnes. K&N and Mobil 1/EP filters are...
