    Engine Misfire After H/c/i Swap

    I believe it's most likely spark related. Are the 764s brand new? Tried re-snapping on the wires on the spark plug side?

    My Brand New 2015 Mustang Gt - Transmission And Body Issues

    Stick with the dealer you bought from and tell them everything, how you feel etc. Tell them it has been a complete nightmare, you aren't satisfied at all, feel you've been cheated, and you want to return the car and get a full refund. Start there and stick with it.

    Dynomax Vt Mufflers On Fox ?

    So since yours rattle at idle, do you think running the 959s might take care of that ? Although I guess if it's good after warmed up that shouldn't be an issue. Did you ever call Dynomax and ask what they recommend ? Overall these sound like something I'd like to get based on your posts about...

    Dynomax Vt Mufflers On Fox ?

    Has anyone used these ? I can't stand my dronemasters, I never drive the car because of the noise. The Dynomax VT are supposed to cut out low throttle noise and drone very well, just wondering if anyone has used them, and if so which ones ? There's the 17159 and 17959, either should work for...

    T5 Transmission Won't Go In

    I wouldnt even try to put it in together first, bolt access is a major pain that way. Once you have the right pieces lines up, you'll have no problem getting it to go in this way.

    T5 Transmission Won't Go In

    I had to replace the input shaft on the tranny. My point is that just because it's from a 94 doesnt mean it IS a 94. I'd recommend measuring the bell, and make sure its the right one. I dont know the measurements, you might have to search around a bit. The other thing you can do (and everyone...

    T5 Transmission Won't Go In

    Does it go in fine then just hit a hard stop? Based on the pic it looks exactly like mine did with the wrong fit. Now I know its a 94 T5 in a 95.. but how about the bell housing? If it's a fox bell housing it would be the same as trying to fit that tranny in a fox.

    T5 Transmission Won't Go In

    My first question would be what year/model is the T5 from and what year is the stang ? When I did the clutch in my car, I got to the same point and couldn't get it to go back in.. spent days on it. Finally figured out it was a T5 from an SN95 (3/8" longer input shaft), and the previous owner...

    List Basic Things To Know For Newb's

    As a more general comment, I would say always keep in mind that co-incidences are exceedingly rare. I can't count the number of times when someone has changed the intake on a perfectly running car, then proceeded to spend 100's or 1000's of dollars replacing everything from the mass air flow to...

    Top End Rebuild And Few Intake Bolt Ons. Now Car Won't Start

    I'd say the most likely culprit is something in the ignition system, make sure you have all the plugs connected in the right order on the distributor, make sure distributor is mounted correctly, make sure coil wire is connected at both ends. Prime the fuel pump a few times too (ignition on/off...

    Is It Time To Upgrade To 24lb Injectors?

    I would definitely try that if I were you. Myself I'm using the Crane 1.7 rockers, and I was getting poor low/top end power, as well as alot of rocker noise at 3/4 to 1 turn of preload. After setting them all down to ~1/4 turn preload there was a noticeable power improvement AND the noise...

    What Cam For A 302 Buildup

    I'm a big fan of the stock cam.

    Is It Time To Upgrade To 24lb Injectors?

    Stock HO Cam. The thing spins fine if you drop the lifter preload to 1/8 to 1/4 turn. After I did the heads I really noticed the dropoff at 4500-5k. Took down the preload and it made a world of difference up high AND down low.

    Is It Time To Upgrade To 24lb Injectors?

    Get a new fuel pump (155), skip the injectors. A GT40 setup is FINE with 19s. I make power to 6k rpm and the 19s go about 80% load.

    Post pics of how your foxbody currently sits

    Looks great !! I'd suggest getting a white leather cover for the top when it's folded down, will make it look even better.

    Engine Rocker Arm Adjustment

    I'm guessing these are the 'coming soon' AFR185s ? How does the bottom/mid-range compare, improvement there too ?

    Engine Rocker Arm Adjustment

    Yup that is true - idea is you need to be on TDC compression at the start of the sequence, but regardless looks like the OP didn't do anything wrong, they just noticed the slight valve movement during lifter preload. I haven't actually noticed it before, I've only noticed the valves move when I...

    Engine Rocker Arm Adjustment

    Yeah actually that makes sense, just movement after zero lash during preloading of the lifters. Any change after re-doing them?
