Sounds like an easy enough trouble shoot. I’ll have to do this and see what happens.

No I do not know how to data log. I have never run any type of fuel additive. Using pump 93 since I bought it. Is there an octane booster that is recommended? If I run an octane booster does that affect future fuel upgrades? Like stepping up to E85? Any links for me to read up on? Product links?

Plugs- NGL TR7ix (parts list attached) As of today I probably have about 300-500 miles on the new build. Tuner is the same shop that did the build…(I’ll keep their name out of it for now.) Definitely gonna work on getting the Misfire situation resolved. That’s really the only thing on my...

Figured I’d update on this. The car was completed a little while back. In November. Sounds good and feels strong. Must admit, though, I’m afraid to get on it. Lol….mainly because I’m afraid to “break” it again. After 30K invested, I’m just NOT there yet… Aside from that I’m happy with the...

Oh. Yea for sure. They’ve guided me through it all. But the comments and suggestions here allow me to ask better questions when I was deciding what my goals and expectations were going to be with this build. for example, initially I was going to port the heads out and everything that comes...

Happier how? Ive come to realize I knew nothing about my “first motor”, so it’s safe to say I know squat about clutches I have to assume it’s the same if not better than my stock one.

Well.... as expected I added more goodies. I mean...it’s now or never.... here’s the FINAL build Package - Ford OEM 5.8L Engine Block - Ford OEM Crankshaft - Diamond Pistons - Manley I Beam Rods - King Racing Rod and Main Bearings - ARP Main Studs, Head Studs, Side Bolts - Cometic Head...

i am getting cams as stated. My builder didn’t recommend billet oil pump gears. I’ll have to ask about it. Well i figure if I set my shift point to 6000 rpm I’d really end up shifting at no more than 6500 or so by the time I react. I never claimed to be a fast shifter not interested in e85 as...

Hell nah! Ima keep my shifts to 6,000rpm until I have an extra 20k or so laying around .....

Well I pulled the trigger. Gonna beef up the internals as listed here, adding cams, injectors, clutch, lowering springs, upper and lower control arms..... now the waiting game begins ; 3-4 months Package - Ford OEM 5.8L Engine Block - Ford OEM Crankshaft (CJ) - Diamond Pistons - Manley I Beam...

well that’s out of my budget. I’m more than happy with my 700rwhp toy. I’m hoping the new block + upgraded internals will do me right.

I realized I mis typed..... I use 93 octane (pump gas “premium”)

If it makes a difference: in my OP I said I used 91octane (pump gas), but I Mis-typed that.... I am using 93 octane (pump gas)....

I agree fully. Well shit now I’m gonna be scared to get on it. Lol.... I just need to better educate myself on what my car is / is not capable of doing with the set up I have. This is ultimately where I failed and now I’m paying the price; literally. Looking like $17K I need to look into...
