My biggest problem with my cougar is that the 3.8 Is just running too good to take it out. :-P.  Thanks to ford they make good stuff!  Also I would be more comfortable if I could have some one else do it first.  I'm guessing that you could use a mustang aftermarket K member in the cougar with little or no modifications.  But I don't know about other clearance issues. 

Maybe someday.

It is not the heat shield or the rear brakes, I check them both.  I have yet to check The motor mounts.  I'm hoping it is something simple!  I will check the motor mounts tonight.  It is driving me nuts! :-P.  Thanks guys!

Drivetrain Tech / Transmission making weird noise
Hey guys, something under my cougar is making a metal to metal grinding sound when I get on the gas hard from a complete stop, or if I try to do a brake stand.  It sounds like it is coming from the tranny. 

I looked up to see if there was a service bulletin for something like that.  the only thing I could find was that they said some of the Flex plates and torque converter bolts didn't have enough clearance so it would rub.  so I took off the cover right in front of the bell housing of the tranny, and it all looked well.  I'm stumped :-/. Any help would be great.

Thanks in advance!

So what width will fit in the rear and also in the front.  dose the offset matter?  cause some are +15mm and others +24mm.

Hey guys,
I'm having a heck of a time finding some rims for my 87 cougar.  I was going to just get some 18s, but I can't find hardly any out there.  I want the cobra R style rims but don't know what offset to get or what width will fit best.  I Have the 4X108 stock rims on right now.  Any advise would be appreciated!!!

334 bucks.  Yeah I know it was a bit much.  But you cant find them anywhere else for cheaper.

Thanks guys!  I'm going to go with 18s. I think it is the look I'm going for.  I will post pics when I get it done.  I'm also finishing up with the window tint, so it going to be lookin' nice!
