Fuel Fuel Filter

A few years ago, i had an AEM methanol kit, Aero 340lph fuel pump and 3/8 or 5/16 fuel lines installed. I forgot which size but it was the next step wider than stock.

I went under my 93 GT to change the fuel filter and discovered that it was relocated to the passenger side and the fuel filter itself was changed as well.

I now have a Power Flow fuel filter. Looking up the specs, this fuel filter is for a carburated engines! Additionally, the fuel filter is fitted with a 90 degree elow on it's left side!

Now.... my 93 GT is running OK. No sputtering. No backfiring. No idle problems. No issues with hard acceleration. Fuel pressure at 39-40psi AND my Mustang guzzles gas like there's no tomorrow. All normal.

What erks me is the fuel filter is for carburated engines according the specs, and the 90 degree elbow fitting that's attached directly to the fuel filter.

My Mustang is running fine but should i concerned about this odd fuel filter?

Engine Engine rebuild suggestions

Rotate the engine around while priming the oil pump with a drill
That will pump up the lifters
Then torque the rocker arms down
That's where I'm confused I guess. According to this guy, lifters should be dry:

Howdy!!

Howdy all!! I'm a new owner of a wonderful condition 2003 V6 "Pony Package"
Thought I'd join the forum as I'm looking for some technical and repair documents for this project.

New to StangNET

Hey All,
Just over a year ago I finally obtained my first Mustang. 1985 Mustang GT. I took it on trade for another project I had been building. I knew nothing about the car other than it was a bit of a rats nest but ran good and drove alright. After many days in the garage looking it over, it was worse than I had hope of redneck debauchery and been hacked to death and gutted and a poor attempt to put it back together as a street car. I went in search to find another car. I ended up trading a motorcycle for a really nice 84 LX Vert. But after staring at the car long enough I do not care for verts. So that project stalled for a long time. My son started driving and I started looking for the car I really wanted. 94-95 GT. I had a really nice trade. 1998 Ram1500 that was a garage queen before I got it and zero rust. But no one wanted to deal. So I was gonna have to buy one out right. In the rust belt area it is hard to find not only a rust free but a unmolested Mustang. I ended finding a few that people said were clean, but they were trying to deceive people. Rust in the towers, floor pans and out back behind the bumpers. I did find one, guy was at one point interested in a trade. Trade fell through but I still wanted to see the car. I got him to drop the price almost 2k for a few issues I found. Its a 94 GT stock with the exception it has a side exit exhaust that is very quiet with a low grumble and a CAI. I still have the other 2 mustangs and they are now my sons projects that I will help on. Mine however will have a few issues taken care of and I will modify the current engine with stuff I have on the shelf already, namely GT40P heads and GT40 intake that I plan to port and polish myself and use a moates quarter horse to tune it. The porting is new to me so it will be a learning experience as well as tuning with binary editor. All this while I finish an engine I started building for the 85 GT. It is a 94 roller 351w that is fresh from the machine shop with .030 bored, decked new cam bearings and freeze plugs as well as a Eagle 408w rotating assembly balanced by the same shop. It was a carb setup originally for the 85GT, I plan to make it EFI and run it to make it look mostly stock. Not looking for big HP gains shooting for a 500hp mark. I do have aluminum heads and a known Erson cam that is ideal for 351w-408w motors. I still need a GT40 for a 351w, new lifters, pushrods and I am using mostly ARP hardware as I have a mish mosh of Ford and of the shelf hardware from a few engines I have laying around. Goal is a just a corner craving street car to maybe one day take to car shows but I wanna drive it as much as I can.

Interior and Upholstery Sound deadening fox interior questions

I did the same as Aerocoupe, popped the wiring up, laid the mat down and popped the clip back into place.

Only the main tub was done in my car, from the firewall to the rear seat. Butyl mat covered in CCF. Some butyl mat was placed on the outer/inner door skins and CCF was applied directly to the door panels. Tremendous difference in road noise.
What an awesome community!
