Alright, I feel like I should know the answer to this question, but I haven't had the time to really research it.
Synopsis: I've got a stroked motor, flat top pistons, milled heads, stock cams, lightly ported b heads and none of the usual bolt ons (no ud pullies, stock coils, fms wires, full...
okay, so i've been having some stuttering problems over the past couple months. the car would choke at high rpms. the plugs were brand new, the wires are less than a year old. the coil packs were in good shape.
I have a small coolant leak, and i was beginning to fear the worst - that i...
Looking for more info on these other than marketing hype. I'm interested in getting one.
Do you have just the flasher, or flasher and software for computer? Is the software pretty easy to use or is it clunky/non-intuitive?
Do you have a wideband? If so, which one?
There is a guy local that is just starting a new business in Suspension tuning. Its a niche that hasn't been tapped into here. He's the only one around that specializes in four corner tuning of drag cars.
He's an old friend, and had him come over to look at my car. We set it up on the...
well, i never really mentioned this because I just figured it was the way it was. But my car makes all sorts of howling and whining noises. I thought some of it might have to do that i don't have a lower shift boot to isolate a lot of road noise.
So I had been looking for a one in good...

I'm sure it got lost with a server crash, but i SWEAR i remember reading an article in this section that showed how to modify the stock tach to be more accurate.
Does anyone remember this or did i bump my head? I mean, this was like 4years ago....
Well, i've been driving around for a bout 3 weeks now just having fun with the car. Last night, some of the old crew got together to hang out and have some dinner. I was giving rides to people and everyone was saying it felt a lot stronger than it did before. I have to agree with them. I...
I assume its something for emissions or EGR or something like that. But here recently, my car has been slightly surging and occasionally dies when i put the clutch in and hit the brakes.
Looking for vacuum leaks, i found this little tiny hose broken:

I've put about 50 miles on the new motor so far. And i'm impressed. Really haven't laid in it yet. Only brought it up to about 5K at 3/4 throttle.
The car pulls HARD in 4th gear though. Just putting it in 4th, at around 1800rpms and just accelerating at about 3/4 throttle it just gets up...
I've got the car pretty much buttoned up. Its all wired up and have listened to the radio and all that.
a friend of mine is coming over tonight after work to help me put the transmission in.
I'm waiting on a valve cover bolt to come in and it should be in tomorrow. Once i go pick that...

i know the picture sucks, but its a two white/grayish wires that comes off the main harness by the battery.
Some say its a ground, but my voltameter does not confirm this. some say it goes to the side of the fuse box with the red single wire.

Its for the Lakewood Scattershield for a TKO. Anyone know a heads up where i might find these?
so i cut a coil off the stock GT springs i had in the rear of my cobra hoping to get a little drop so it wouldn't be all dukes of hazzard.
While putting them back on, I noticed that if i kept the pigtail on the lower part of the spring pointing forward then the end of the spring at the top...
Does anyone make a fluid dampened balancer that is NOT for underdrive pulleys? I looked at the march piece and it seems to be only for underdrive pulleys. I have stock pulleys and want aftermarket dampener - perferably fluid dampened
I ordered some Ford Motorsport Gaskets part number F80Z-9448-AE. They came as two, two cylinder gaskets. Its like they took a 4 bank gasket and cut it in two.
I'm a little hesitant about that...anyone have experience with these gaskets? I didn't take them in case i needed to get new ones...

I ordered some stuff for my daily driver. There was a miscommunication and i was sent a driver side mirror when i needed a passenger side mirror.
Just got off the phone with him and he is sending out the correct mirror with a label to send back the other one.
Great guy to do business...
So i dropped my motor and new block off to have the guts swapped over. Was told 4wks for a turnaround. But they said that's what they tell everyone and it might be sooner cause they have most of the parts in stock.
I'm getting excited to have my car back on the road.
Looking to get a...
