Be smart and install a tubular K member if you are going with Longtubes. It makes install and long-term maintenance on the clutch a non-issue it will allow you to easily unbolt one header to aid removal of the tranny for clutch replacement. Also #1 Word of advice if you are going to modify your ride....Learn to turn a wrench on it yourself. You will save a ton of money overpaying someone to install your go-fast parts!!

I'm doing the"learning" part now. I have a friend with an '00 Crown Victoria and I have an '00 Grand Marquis. He's a mechanic, I'm a woodworker. He's helped me work on my car, I helped him change his intake manifold yesterday. It would have been more fun it it hadn't been ungodly hot outside, but now I know I can change mine. A few weeks ago I changed my upper plenum with a Trick Flow, almost entirely by myself. That woke my luxobarge up nicely. This may not sound like much to those used to working on cars, but it's been awesome. I'm just getting started.

Great video! My suggestions for first mod, bang for buck would be an off-road X or H pipe. I don’t think they sell them anymore but a used one should be easy to find still. Stuff I’ve never had luck with are: aftermarket clutch cables, always go with a Ford one and I’ve never had any success with aftermarket throttle bodies. They always had some sort of issues and I’d end up going back to stock. I wish the Tremec 3650 didn’t have the bell housing as part of the case. Would be so much easier swapping a clutch especially w/ long tubes. A 2V New Edge is a great car for someone getting into the hobby too. Lots of solid examples still available that won’t break the bank. So many parts and resources out there to help you build no matter what direction you want to go. I think their styling has aged well and they still look great, not dated at all

You shouldn't have to remove headers. You have to remove the mid pipe to get the transmission out. But headers can stay bolted to the cylinder head. You can access the bellhousing bolts after removing the mid pipe. But you have to do that with stock exhaust as well. BBK headers fit well on my 04 mustang and didn't have to remove to replace clutch.

Spend the little money get the cheap tube k member for Cheapos. And my Chinese longtubes that when u remove the inner well and tire Jack up and waaalaaaa header bolts. Everything you said in this is just because u have no clue wtf your doing. Amazon coils are even great. On my truck 50buck Chinese coil pack are 2 seasons old and never give me issues. And my hood friends 03 term has a returnless and puts 700 some hp down. And plugs only what kind. Wtf I’ve had fords. But the denso iridium’s are two years old and I check everything twice a year and all the junk that’s gonna be 5 years old 100l miles and blabla. Is fantastic. I even DoorDash with it. And beat the shit. So u musta bought a lemon or idk. But u can’t say to people not to buy or do something when 22 years old my cars runs like. Top. I had boost so A return sys was ness. But I sold for a na build that makes more then 8 psi and I’m back to my returnless sys. just like I put a Romeo engine in a Windsor car and nothing was gonna work bolt up blabla. Everything fit perfectly Blew a clutch and I’m done laying on stone. I pulled my engine and left trans In. Took me from 6am sat morning and 1145 that night engine was back in and 1230 I was back on the road. I work alone and have the picker attachment that allows me to tilt and move engine and engine slid on trans so easy bell bolts cable mounts for engine plug harness in 10 mins fill up fluids and quick lil accessory bolts and it’s easier then on ground manhandling a trans perfect. And headers go on when engine is semi in. So. Best easy mustangs ever.
