$500-$600 is the going rate for a dyno tune! If someone is charging $1,000...RUN!! As for injectors, etc...you can run anything you want but the the size of injector and pump will limit you. Back in the day, early 90's we were throwing on chargers from 5-10lbs of boost on essentially stock...

I was toying about going carb, but chose in the end not to. The way i figure it is, either way it will have to be professionally tuned. The tuning systems are expensive and I am not going to waste a good motor trying to do it without a dyno. I do wish there was an affordable, easy efi...

run it... read my post "seperator, baffle or both... After i went thru a lot of anxiety learning how to do a leakdown. And, I will never buy a cheap tool again!:nonono: LOL But thanks to stykthyn:flag: I learned something new and useful. I just thank god all is fine. Now, I am going to...

I agree! And no synthetic or semi-synthetic.

I agree with 25th. I have a 331 with 165's and a Cobra intake. It's right where it needs to be. With a 351, the 185's are a must.

run it! and drive it like you stole it... That's what I am told now that everything checked out. compression, leakdown, etc... I have a similar situation as you. Check to make sure everything is ok, then run it!!!! I am getting about 2.5 ounces every 500 miles in a seperator with a...

Leakdown done...5-6%...Went around twice. better reading the second time once i got a good seal from the plug O ring! so bottom end is fine, heads are good, now what? 2nd PCV? Plug it and run breathers? baffle?:shrug: any thoughts would be welcome... Thanks!

Leakdown tests... amazing....about: 5 ways to do the test, different instructions for every make of tester, quality of tester....and so on...:rolleyes: So far, my engine is either 3-7%, which it should be as it's near new, or 55-75%, depending on the directions!! Just bought another...

Waiting on my leakdown tester to come...Ordered it yeaterday... So, i am going over a few scenarios in my head. 1. If it's a head gasket or valve then fine, replace it, move on. 2. if it's rings, :(after i have cried in the fetal position) :rlaugh: I may change pistons to lower the...

Already did a compression test. 205-210 in ALL cylinders was the highest reading. I haven't done a leakdown yet. I don't have a tester. see, my upper is a factory Cobra intake. Actually off of a '93. My lower is not an original cobra lower. It may be from an explorer. However, the...

Untitled Document these guys may be able to help you...

Well, until I locate a baffle for the lower intake, I am going to add another pcv valve on the pass. side vc. vristang...I assume this worked for you from what i have read?

Well, here is the seperator after taking an aggressive ride on some twisty backroads. About 10 miles... i think i am going to track down the larger baffle as well. This was also with the oil cap on, not the breather. no smoke at all. runs great.

OK...:rolleyes:

As stated earlier...everything is NEW! It did not do this before i deleted the cats, smog, egr, etc... I will find it. Just will take some time. besides it needs to be re-tuned anyway. Not too worried about. Just thought i would see what other people thought. But it is NOT the...

No. the breather wasn't on. I put the breather on for one reason! rear main seal!!! When I get back down to Atlanta Chassis, i will have Brad check it out. I will put that steeda kit on and see. I may take off the hose from filler neck to tb and block the holes. I don't know how much...

It's been dyno tuned once by Brad Brand of Atlanta Chassis dyno. I do need another as I completely deleted all emissions equipment. No codes except EGR, which has a dummy plug. balance test was fine as well. As for the Steeda kit, I place a much higher price on convenience rather than...

Oil seperator, baffle or both? Update 331, 10.5:1, cobra upper and lower. My valve cover has the baffle and I am currently running a breather with PCV system. (no vacuum problems). I do have baffles in the lower, but not the larger one that was an after thought by Ford. The problem...

I have powerslot rotors and so far so good. My last set up worked very well too. all Saleen brakes are from a lincoln or SVO. (87-93) I do think front lines and front pads make a difference. I can swear by EBC... and get some braided stop flex for your lines...

5l5, ahaha!:nice: No rag joint. That went in the garbage a while ago. I have the MM shaft.
