    Which custom cam / blower cam for my car?

    The B-31 has a real good sound to it. I would compare it to almost a FMS X as far as the sound and idle quality. I really like it so far. I've got about 5,000 miles on the 306 that has the B-31. It makes boost sooner than the FMS E that it replaced and it pulls harder than the E did also. I...

    Which custom cam / blower cam for my car?

    I've run the N-71, N-91, and the B-31. I have never had any drivability issues with any of them. The N-41 is a good cam for a mild h/c/i N/A daily driver. My buddy runs that cam in a car that he drives to work every day and he loves it.

    H/C/I swap. got some ??

    If they are equal to a victor jr. then they will have way too big of a intake valve to clear with a stock shortblock. Victor jrs have a 2.05 intake valve and you can't clear over a 1.90 with a stock shortblock. You might wanna wait until you get the 331 installed.

    Which custom cam / blower cam for my car?

    Anderson B-31 is all you need. I've run a few different AFM cams and had excellent results with them all.

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    I've got a snapon compression gauge and the 14mm extension for it won't tighten all the way down on my heads. When I cranked it over I got about 65lbs of pressure and that's it. Either the gasket is blown or the gauge was leaking. I unplugged the mass air meter and it didn't make any...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    Guys I think I have some blown head gaskets. The plugs fouled out and I have went over everything. I retorqued the lower intake and sprayed carb cleaner on everything in sight searching for a vacuum leak and found nothing. I think that I ran way too much timing when I first got it running...

    Are Cometic MLS head gaskets really worth the extra money??

    I think I just blew my new felpro 1011-2 head gaskets and I was wondering if the Cometic MLS head gaskets are really worth the $160 price tag? I was running too much timing and I'm pretty sure I toasted my felpro's this weekend. I'm new to the whole supercharger scene, so I guess one set of...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    I just sprayed carb cleaner around everything in hopes of finding a leak and it didn't do anything at all. I sprayed directly where the lower intake meets the heads and it seemed as if the idle raised whenever it wanted to without any relation to where I was spraying. I guess the next step is...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    Yeah I shouldn't have floored it just yet, but the car was getting on my nerves with this leak. I wonder if I should just take the upper and lower off and replace the lower gaskets with new ones and silicone the crap out of them. I made sure to use both pipe plugs on the upper and lower and I...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    Ok thanks for seconding my notion of it being the intake. The car pulled so hard last night at WOT until this leak developed, I can't wait to get this thing fixed. I remember that I didn't make as much of a bead at the front and back of the intake as I usually do. I was really rushing to get...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    I was wondering if maybe I have an intake leak at maybe the front or the back of the intake where I used silicone. The car did perfect for over 30 minutes of letting it idle and just playing with the fuel pressure and timing. Then the car started missing and cutting off. Thats when I lost...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    I've got stud mount rockers and I have the right length pushrods. When I first started the car I had about 10lbs of vacuum at idle and after about 20 or so minutes of letting it run it started to get less and less. The rockers are adjusted right. I already readjusted them just in case I had...

    HELP!!! No vacuum after head and intake swap.....

    I just finished a head and intake swap and now the car has no vacuum and will hardly run. I have to keep giving it gas to keep it running. If you hold the gas pedal at a constant spot then the rpms go up and then down repeatedly. I'm running a holley systemax intake with performer rpm heads...

    What are the colored vacuum lines for at the back of the engine compartment?

    I have got a few broken colored plastic lines at the vacuum bundle and was wondering if any of these lines can be done away with. What are they for?

    Is this fuel system set up safe for 9lbs of boost?

    I would say use a 255lph pump with a good fmu with about a 6lb disc and you will be fine. I have seen lots of cars at the local dyno that do just fine with "small" by stangnet standards injectors. Lots of people don't like fmu's and buy bigger injectors and then get a custom tune because lots...

    351 windsor rods any good?

    Hey rick, how strong are the newer 351w roller blocks and rotating assemblies? My uncle has one out of a 3/4 ton ford truck that he wants to sell. I wanna say maybe a 1996?

    Tire Sizes and rear suspension

    265/50/15 is what I run on the street when I'm not running drag radials. They are about equal to a 26/10.50/15

    Which wire is the oxygen sensor signal wire?

    So even if I use the pin setup I will still have a gauge that just jumps all over? Mine in the 92 only reads a constant reading while accelerating. At idle it goes from nothing to rich about once every second or two. Is this normal for a autometer air/fuel? I had this pro comp ultra lite...
