Keys locked in car 2008 ford mustang
This happens alot. You can call the Police and ask if someone can help you get into your car. The Police use a device called a "Slimjim" to enter your car.
If the Police won't come out, you can try a dealer with the Vin# and see if they can cut you an entrance key that does not have to be Electronic. This would cost $3 compared to $60.
Another way is a Locksmith. If you have Autoclub most cover this service. This is just a Labor cost as the Locksmiths have Master keys they don't give out.
I hope someone has given you a timely answer.

My Mustang GT 2008 was working fine then I noticed
this sounds like a lighting control module problem, but until thre dealer can confirm it u are stuck, we just won't fix what we can't confirm, sorry, we would not get paid for the work if we did replace parts that checked ok, suggest u let the dealer keep the car until it acts up for them or have the Ford factory field engineer come out, you can also call the customer complaint number in your owners manual and ask them for further help with this problem, the dealer is not the last word, Ford is.

My 2008 Ford Mustang started having problems a
Hi
it sounds like a bad earth conection, check the battery leads and ensure the black earth wire has a good tight conatct to the battery and also a good tight connection to the car body, if the wire is loose then when driving will touch on and off hence the fault.
The earth lead also go's to your starter motor and another to the cars gearbox ensure all have a good metal conatct and are tight, not rusty etc also this can be a difficult fault to find at times the wires can corode where you cant see so be
thorough when checking the wires.
Hope this helps, its the most common thing on fords bad earth connections. may take you some time to locate but im pretty sure thats the cause.
If you need any more help please email me and I will get back to you.
Regards
Dan

What is the maximum safe flywheel horsepower
Your question is a professional one so I will have to have more information to answer you other than:
The factory flywheel is not rated for more than 300 hp.
There are professionally built automatic transmissions costing thousands of dollars that are made to deal with this kind of horsepower. With your goal of 425 at the rear wheels you will need to beef up the entire drive train. This can include the transmission - flywheel - drive shaft and u joints - rearend - drive axles and lug bolts and even the wheels.
Please purchase items specifically for your horse power and -- use a transmission blanket - and a safety loop for the transmission.
Please take your vin# to the dealer and ask them for the factory specs - they will share them - however if you bought the car used - you are best to assume the items mentioned are less than perfect and perhaps needs to be replaced because there is no guarantee they are the factory items.
Also - remember to put larger brakes on the car - as the bullet you're building is going to need to stop too.
Best of it

I dont wont to 500 dollars to get a 30000 mile
You can certainly reduce the cost of the check up if you have the skills and knowledge to do some of the work yourself.
Basic jobs like checking and adjusting the fluid levels, tyres, and replacement of lube, filters and spark plugs are all relatively straightforward. Checking the brake discs (US=rotors) & pad wear/replacement is a bit more involved but easy if you know how and have the tools and experience. Many other things though including the service interval reset, emissions check/adjust and engine adjustments have to be done by a correctly equipped garage.
Consider this carefully though as you clearly aren't a qualified motor mechanic so DIY servicing will invalidate your warranty and very significantly reduce the resale value of your Mustang. You can shop around though to see if you can get a better price but $500 for a major 30k mile service on a car like yours seems pretty cheap already.

Cobra GT 500 Clutch
Not totally disengaging, not properly installed, poorly aligned shift fork. What makes you feel its "burned out"? once taken apart the condtion of the clutch will indicate with wear patterns what truly happened. "riding" the clutch would also do so.
