    Alum. vs. Steel Flywheel

    Hi guys. I don't know if this has been discussed or not but here's my question. I own an 85 GT that has dyno'd 300 RWHP with 310 RWT. I have been running the original 10" clutch and am planning on upgrading to a 10.5 this winter. I have been getting conflicting advice on which flywheel I should...

    Ebelbrock Heads for 5.0L

    Do you have valve reliefs cut into your pistons? If not you'll need it with valves that big.

    what delete kit do i need?

    One question. Is this for a 5.0 or a modular? My 85 did not come with AC but has Powersteering and like I said, I deleted the smog. If it is a 5.0 you might be able to use the bracket from a non-AC car. I know my belt configuration is completely different from AC cars.

    what delete kit do i need?

    Gottcha. Going to have to do some creative relocating. How about March? They do have different brackets for different motor applications.

    what delete kit do i need?

    Well, Ford Racing has the Powersteering and Smog delete pulley's. Check out Summit Racing. There are a few companies that offer them. If the Ford parts are to expensive try UPR.

    Guess 1/4 miles and HP/please

    I vote mid to low twelves. With the right tune and a hard launch, 11.90's might be possible.

    what delete kit do i need?

    Still have my power steering, but I used the Ford Racing smog delete. http://store.summitracing.com/default.asp?Ntt=smog+pump+eliminator&Ntk=KeywordSearch&DDS=1&searchinresults=false&N=0&target=egnsearch.asp&x=41&y=16 You could just pull the pump and go with a smaller belt.

    Just finsh ordering a DCContoler!!!!

    You still might be able to get one through Ford. DCcontrol sells them with the variable speed control unit. Not cheap to buy these fans new. Dccontrol's fan+unit sells for $365 new. A lot easier if you can find one used, then just order the control unit for $110. PS, Do yourself a favor and...

    What does gear whine sound like?

    Yes, if you throw it in neutral you will still hear the speedometer cable. I believe the speedometer cable's gear mesh's with the tranmission driven gear which allways turns. Does the noise/pitch increase and decrease with the speed you are driving? That is always a dead giveaway. Can't...

    Just finsh ordering a DCContoler!!!!

    The LED is $10 unless you wait to long then he will tag on a $5 delivery fee. So call him as soon as possible before he sends the unit out so he can include the LED. I believe the orange/black wire is the high speed. When you hook up the DCcontrol unit you will want to hook it up the high speed...

    Replaced intake gaskets now car won't start

    Sounds like the distributor is off 180 degrees.

    Just finsh ordering a DCContoler!!!!

    Good choice. I went with the same setup two month's ago and love it. If you can, call Brian back and order the LED indicator light. It will let you know what the fan is doing otherwise you'll be jumping in and out of the car to see if it working. You can't hear it inside the car, and its kind of...

    What does gear whine sound like?

    I'll bet good money its the speedometer cable then. Thats a part that should be an OEM replacement. I looked high and low for one since Ford discontinued it for the 85 GT. Finally found a factory piece through CJ Pony. All the others were cheap imitations.

    What does gear whine sound like?

    Speedometer cable? Is it the original? When one goes bad they can make some funky noises. Do you have the stock shifter? If you have an after market shifter the sound deadening will not be there and you will hear then trans. One way to tell if the noise is reverberating through the shifter is...

    Heater core replacement without pulling dash..?

    Napa, Car Quest, and Auto Zone all have the hoses. Personally I don't like Auto Zone parts of any kind. You can find the heater core at Texas Mustangs, Dallas Mustangs, or CJ Pony out of Pennsylvania.

    Trick Flow Stage 1 cam HELP!!!!

    Just remember, if you do decide to put in that cam you should change your valve springs. The stock springs will not be up to the task of the added lift of the cam. Especially if you have some miles on the car.

    Trick Flow Stage 1 cam HELP!!!!

    You're not going to notice much of anything with that cam until you either swap out those heads or have the stock one's ported. The bottle neck in SBF's is the heads. Get the heads to breath and watch the cam come to life. You'd be better off spending the money on gears first. As far as having...
