What the hell is a windage tray and what does it do?

What is a panhard bar and what does it do?

I will never know if I never ask.

a windage tray keeps the engine oil down in the oil pan and keeps it off the rotating parts if you install one its prollyy good for about 8 hp

Panhard Bar eliminates the mustangs unstable and unpredictable behavior while cornering near its limit. This feeling is caused by the rear of the car steering itself without input from the driver. Rear end steering is caused by sideways movement of the rear axle. The Panhard Bar is the best method to control the side-to-side movement by positively locating the rear axle in one position, therefore eliminating sideways movement for improved more predictable performance.

Cool, thanks for the quick response.

Does the panhard bar have any benifits as far as drag racing goes?

Yeah, I guess it would be one of those mods to make the car an all around better driver. The windage tray seems interesting to me though. Is this a difficult mod? Does it effect a daily driver any?

Thanks a bunch for the info.

I does have some application for very high HP as it helps with placing more torque on the Right rear along with sub frame stiffiners.
