    cutting coil springs

    You can cut any spring, it just changes the spring rate. Depending on which end you cut off a progressive rate spring, you might make it firmer or softer. Just don't cut it with a torch, that will destroy a spring. However, cutting springs is not a good idea. It's very hard to get the car to...

    Any cars come with 351?

    I hope this doesn't get me banned from this site, but I regret to inform everyone here that I *cough cough* bought a chevy *cough*. But it's just something to beat up on and learn to race with while we build the stang. This whole thread is pretty much informational now since I read the...

    Any cars come with 351?

    Me and a buddy are thinking about making my 86 into a dirt track car. In the rules it says it has to be a production motor and you can't use a truck motor, but neither of us could think of a car that came with the 351. A 302 just wouldn't be competitive enough with the chevy 383's and 400's...

    Did I miss it?

    I'm down for a cruise if someone can come up with a route. I've got a buddy that wants to get his ride out in the sun too. From the looks of this weekend though, it's probably going to have to be in the next couple of weeks, summer is just about over.

    whats the formula for

    Mark the ds, then rotate the tire one full rotation, count the number of rotations the ds makes. 3 3/4 turns is 373's, a little over 4 is 410's etc.

    The Fox Body Lean

    My vert leans to the drivers side, but my seat has the built in gangsta lean which counter acts. So it pretty much fixed itself! :rolleyes:

    tapping noise Injectors?

    An exhaust leak would get louder as the RPM's come up and could sound like a ticking sound. Can you post a video or sound clip? If you still want to replace the injectors, 19lbs stock replacements are what you want with your mods.

    Vert top lift pump

    I just changed out my bad pump for a used one. While I had the pump out I saw on it to use type II ATF fluid. Is there a res. or fill hole on this thing somewhere? I put it in and it seems to work fine, I didn't hear any air when running the pump, just wondering if there is a resevior (sp)...

    Check this out please?

    Have you dyno'd the motor or car yet? I don't think the T5 is rated for much over 300 crank HP if memory serves, I think it's acually more like 270 for a WC. I found a chart once, but I didn't save the link. As said before, as long as you baby it, it should last, but with a bored or stroked...

    Need some advice, what car should I keep?

    IMHO +1 But that's just me, which one do you like better? Personally, I have an 86 hatch, a 90 vert, and a 91 notch, my 4 eye would be the first to go even if it was just as nice as the other two.
