    Need a Tune?

    Don't really think what you did to the car will throw it off by much. You didn't really effect anything in terms of what your car uses to calculate functions. You still have the stock injectors and maf so the tables aren't affected, if anything the car might run a tab bit lean but nothing in the...

    3:73's or 4:10's

    Agree wish I went with 3.55's over the 3.73's but its all in hindsight. At the time it was the right decision with the power the car made.

    Gear Oil

    Just overhauled my rearend back in july and thats what I used. No problems with it, used 2 bottles of rp with a shot friction modifier. Take note rear end fluid is some nasty stuff so try not to spill it or get in on yourself.

    Cold Air or stock intake?

    Either way you should delete the restrictor box, but both mods net around the same hp gain (5-7hp). Some argue the metal cai kit is actually worse because of the chrome piping that ends up heating the incoming air thus hurting performance. Its really more of a personal choice for looks more than...

    More engine removal questions...

    #2 Some stockers have the factory engine lift mounts on the heads, or you can buy an intake mount. I've used both to pull the engine take your pick. #3 pry the cable off the bottom of the throttle body lever (snaps on and off) using a screw driver, than remove the 2 bolts that bolt onto the...

    fuel pump stuck on/no start and throttle cable slack

    I would say eec power relay, or the igntion switch. Other than that pin 19 which is connected FORD EEC is the only other place it can get a signal from if something were wrong. Thanks God for Tmoss :flag:

    fuel pump stuck on/no start and throttle cable slack

    Want to raise driver's side seat height

    I went with those latemodel resto seat sliders because of the opposite reason for leg room (I'm tall) and one side effect I didnt realize is the seat height is about 1" 1/2 higher which actually worked against me but may work for you. Only thing is it's not a dramitic lift. Thinking out of the...

    Top end noise?

    Pedestals (which it sounds like you have) are torqued to spec and usually need to be shimmed to be adjusted right. If shimming doesn't work you might need to change to longer or shorter pushrods too (invest in a pushrod length checker). I don't remember the torque setting but though it was...

    How to get off old 5.0 emblems????

    Here's a pick of mine that I removed before sending my car out to paint. I don't remember having any tabs to mess with on the back side. <BR>

    SuperCharger Problem.

    The only thing that should be coming off the discharge tube would be a bypasss valve and or if you have a blowoff valve. The tubing I think is just 2" diameter and rubber hose would work. What concerns mean is that you said its leaking oil which it shouldn't be. As air should be the only thing...

    How to get off old 5.0 emblems????

    I've used an old hair dryer on low heat to soften them up and carefully pried them off.

    Top end noise?

    Hard to tell could be a spun bearing, bad lifter, rockers that aren't adjusted right, oiling issues leading to valvetrain noise. Crappy thing is they all sound similar so its hard to go by sound. You have the right idea I would start with the simple things, hook up a vacuum gauge check the idle...

    twin turbo tuning help please

    Either way your going to have to spend money, I have a tweecer RT simply because I bought it when it was first out many years ago, now the new thing is the Moates which is nicer because you can tune on the fly and see the effects real time, whereas the tweecer you make changes, log and come back...

    forced induction

    I always thought a sd setup was better suited for higher hp and boosted applications over a maf simply because of the meters limitations and the ability to match the engine efficeny to the afr readings on your wideband (more precise tune). But what do I know.

    Coolant Leak

    I would check all lines first, in the front of the engine trace the radiator hose back to the thermostat housing, check the lines below and too the left rubber has a tendency to wear and leak. Also the thermostat housing itself. On the passenger side back behind the throttle body there are two...

    Vortech interference

    I have a power pipe too, I just push the fuel lines out of the way towards front more. Could always run some aftermarket fuel lines with flexible hoses rather than the hard lines going to after aftermarket fuel rail.

    Wipers died on me

    Had mine go on the way to a job interview out of college in a rain storm. The company got pissed and told me not to bother rescheduling. Too bad for them I ended up working for my current company making 3 times more money. The problem was my motor.

    best replacement fuel pump after 20yrs!!!!

    I consider doing a fuel pump a pain in the ass so get a 255lph and be done with it, will cover almost any upgrades you throw at it aside from large hp applications. And above poster is right you can't go too big of a fuel pump on these cars because they are a return type system any unused gas...
