    Read my plug please?

    That plug does look like a lean condition, it would have spots all over or it, or a melted electrod, if it were detonating, look at a chiltons book. As for the 91 code, there was a guy on corral net that had that problem yesterday, he found that the orange ground wire coming out the that...

    wanting 12's really bad

    What altitude are you at? I say your setup will get you 12's easy around sea level with slicks or Drag radials. 39psi sounds about right, I set mine to about 39-40 psi (with vaccum) 44-45psi with out, on my 331, but the dyno will let you know. Just drive it like you stole it, and you should...

    Spark plug indexing

    Has anyone taken the time to index their spark plugs? Is it worth the time? If so, did you notice a difference at the track or on the dyno. Just curious. Thanks.

    90/10's or 70/30's?

    Can anyone with either strut tell me how you like them at the track, and on the street. How much did they help to lower your 60' time. Which ones would be the all around best, for the track and the street. I like to drive on the street, but its not an everyday driver. I run around town on...

    Stock Gear Ratio...

    Nether one of those numbers are the gear ratio. It should be the top number near the bolt. The bolt might cover a little of the first number, but there is a code that reads 2L73, or 3L08, keep looking. Or just jack up the rear and count the tire rotation to the drive shaft rotation, ie 1 turn...

    Tough decision to sell or not to sell.

    I vote for keeping the stang, with 120,000 miles, it should go a lot further, if you take care of it and change the oil regularly. If its stock, it should get in the 25mpg range. My brothers 90 gt has 200,000 on it and he drives it every day, and its still running strong, even with mutiple...

    Stock Gear Ratio...

    Look at the tag on your rear end cover. It will say something like 2L73, or 3L08. They did also put 3.27 in the rear too. My friends 89 gt with an auto had them.

    How much does a Fox body weigh?

    My 88 coupe weighs 3020 with me (190#s) in it and a half tank of gas, no back seat, stiped trunk, and minus all the sound dampaning crap, no a/c, weld rims. Thats about 2830#s, not to bad. Since the last time I weighed it, the power steering has flown the coupe, so now its probably around...

    new times with the 331 (im getting there)...

    Something is really wrong, I have really close to the same set up as you, and I run 12.4 108 1.7 60' at 4000' thats alt. corrected to around 11.8 114 3050 w/driver, and I think it should go faster with a little more tweeking. I agree with RydeOn and dyno it to save your self some time and see...

    10 Hole Wheel Lover!

    I saw a picture somewhere, I will try and find it, where a coupe had 10 holes, black with polished lip and center cap, but anyways he narrowed the front, and used that piece to widen the back. It looked really nice, I think he had 275s in the rear. Dont know how strong they would be but who knows.

    2.3 to 5.0

    All the stock 4cyd wiring will work fine, just find an A9L computer and complete efi harness out of a 89-93 because they are already mass air, including injector harness, and o2 harness. Shouldn't be to hard, they are on ebay all the time. Good luck.

    o2 sensors not detected?

    There is a fusable link in the wireing harness on the passanger side of the engine bay on the fire wall, look around for it, it may be inside of some wire loom, but if its burned up, then there will be no power to your 02 sensors. I had the same problem with mine, no one could figure it out, I...
