Hey guys taking a shot in the dark here but I must try. I'm looking for a shop that handles high performance sn95's. Ive got one that needs some luvin and I do not want to hand it over to a butcher. Any suggestions will be appreciated. I live in north county area and I want the best for my mustang. Thank you.

First of all welcome to the site! Secondly as far as a shop would go, take a look at our site sponsor "Manning Motorsports" in San Marcos. Barry is the guy to talk to, he swapped my auto to a manual, he built another members previous car into a monster and he has been around for ages. Give him a call, he'll get you taken care of. -------------------- |

Thank you for the gracious welcome I appreciate it. I have some experience with manning motorsports a few years back, I used to go there when Nick owned it. Here is a shot of the car.

No problem, glad to see another clean 94-98 on the site. Details on the car? And yes, Barry and Nick own it I believe. Barry cranked out my transmission swap in a week and I have had no problems. The dude's a genius -------------------- |

Yeah its a 95, Ive owned it for 11 years now. The car started out as a red 95gt convertible and It was involved in a near head on collision that left the body wrecked but the motor was running just fine. I ended up buying a 1994 V6 automatic donor car that I gutted and stuffed full of V8 5 speed action. It runs and drives right now but its been sitting for about 3 years.

Well I might, my main concern is just getting the car drivable. It stalls at low rpm once the engine gets warm. Could be caused by numerous different reasons which is why i need a shop to diagnose it. Of course there are things that I would do if I had the money, but all in time. When is your clubs next meeting?
