    Front Coil Over and 60’ times – 65 Mustang

    a foot of front end rise is pretty decent for a stock suspension car. is your swaybar removed and are you getting traction? it sounds like you have enough front end lift to not really need coilovers, and your drivetrain setup needs to be inspected if you are looking for lower times. without a...

    carburetor question

    for the street a 650 holley or edelbrock would work great. like advised earlier, change the spring in the vacuum secondary on the holley to a lighter one since you are running a stick. a mechanical secondary 650 may give good power but has a chance of suffering fuel mileage

    Help with K-Code Compression Test Results

    does the oil look chocolatey? maybe you could have blown a head gasket, or the rings need to be done in the motor and/or valves. its interesting you got low readings on cylinders next to one another. do you have access to a leakdown gauge? That can better point you to where the leakage is...

    (I think) Timing chain issue... might explain dyno/starting/timing issues..

    if you still think its a timing chain issue or slack in the valvetrain, do what dhearne says and use a breaker bar on the balancer to rock the engine side to side and observe the movement of the distributor rotor. If its tight, you need to check your total ignition timing, since idle timing...

    (I think) Timing chain issue... might explain dyno/starting/timing issues..

    check with the breaker bar like dhearne suggests. it will tell you if your timing chain is loose or messed up. Also you can pull the dizzy and check the gear to see if its chewed up? Is your dizzy gear material compatable with the cam thats in it? does it spin freely? whats the backlash of the...
