Hey there people,
I thought I would go ahead and start a build thread for my 2002 Gt since ive already asked 92 questions ( not really) and would like to keep things organized so Ill try to be posting a lot of questions on here-
So far Ive done.........well nothing ha! Ive just been trying to find the source of some known issues such as inconsistent idling, power surges, poor gas mileage, running too lean, dent removal, paint touch up, general cleaning ect.
Safe to say this car can keep me busy for awhile but I like that! The more I play with it the more I love it, I have a lot of love for the older 5.0's since I had one but I really am amazed at the torque of this engine as well as the handling with just stock suspension.
I am also waiting till I can find out if there is any body warping since the car was hit at some point in its life. Ive looked the car over hardcore now and everywhere but the panel where it was hit fits together so well that I would be willing to be they have never been replaced or shifted from the accident. The only evidence of possible warp-age is that the car pulls to the left and clearly needs an alignment, which I then read that shops cant align a frame thats bent so that worries me. However I did contact the previous owner about if the reason the car hasnt been aligned is because there is frame damage and he said no he hadn't had it align for 2 years so I am very hopeful! Even if the car is warped I still want to get the frame straightened if I have to, but I would rather it be straight lol
Ill keep everyone posted!
