I've been on corral for a few years. There's the occasional smartass that will yell for you to use the search function, but hey that happens here too. Like someone else said, there is a ton of tech and knowledge on there. The classifieds are pretty good as well.

I joined mustangforums over a year ago during a TCCoA invasion. OMG that was hilarious, but since my dad got his 90 Mustang I've been on there a lot more. :hick:

I am going to have to agree with this. Although I mostly just browse on that site.

I did join this one and so far they seem like nice idiots.  I just stick to the 5.0 forum.

Yeah, this is true as well. I tried telling them about their new idiot(previously banned from here) but they didn't listen me thinks.

The Corral was one of the first sites that I went to for engine tech - that was late in 1999 when I first got the Cougar :hick: Cool Cats & The Corral were my staples for info for several years. There used to be some real good folks there. There are some smart folks there now, but either they rarely post (Kim, Buddy) or they are a friggin' wacko (KatoEngineering). I know who to listen to for each type of tech (Engine, Suspension, Drivetrain etc...) but it's only because I have been posting there for years - it takes time to weed out the morons & wanna be's. I actually had someone banned once for being a moron troll there, though that rarely happens. The best days were when Ed Curtis and Jay would argue about heads (bigger is better?) or one of the 331 vs 347 posts where the idjuts try to argue about  they know nothing about.

I posted in the 5.0/5.8 section about my car and my engine build and everyone was helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly.  Helped me a lot.

In my experience, if you are looking for really good engine tech: SBFTECH.com has it hands down.  Advice you receive is NOT based on conjecture (as in: "I read it in a magazine so this is what you should do",or "my friends brother-in-laws cousin did that, so it should work...".  The info you get is based on experience.  No shooting from the lip.  Plus it's not just a "late model" Mustang site.  There are people with all kinds of Ford vehicles, including a contingent from Down Under.  It's great place to be educated on some often over looked aspects of engine building (the one's that make the difference between ending up with a turd or a screamer).  On SBFTECH it's OK to be ignorant, but stupidity gets flamed pretty quick.

For classifieds, I've found the Corral to be great!  I have bought quite a bit of stuff there, without a bad experience.  But the tech forums seem to have a lot of "arm chair" experts.

What's great out this site (Fox T-Bird-Cougars) is the "car specific" tech info is all hands on.  If you ask how to do something, someone who's done it will walk you through it.  The amount of incredibly detailed information that is available for our cars, here and Cool Cats, is a gold mine!  It's a great community, with little of the squabling I've seen in other places.
