    Ring wash from running too rich????

    I have heard something about if you have a carb the dumps to much fuel (runs rich) that it can "wash the rings out" of a motor.. I dont exactly know what the phrase "wash the rings out" means exactly, But I guess it would make them not seal as well. I asked this in here since you guys deal with...

    F303 Cam installed

    Ranchero50, The half of the rpm band that you give up is the half that your not gonna be using when your racing your car anyway. Rarely would you be under 3000 rpm when racing. Except for an automatic with a stock / near stock converter. But yea putting any bigger cam in a otherwise stock 5.0 is...

    The 93 205 rating, was a combination of both the change in the hp rating by ford AND the cam, m.a.f, computer changes, and exhaust revisons throughout 89-92. Suposivly 87-92 were rated with out any of the accesories, (p/s, smog, a/c, alt, w-pump). And they made about 225 hp give or take about...

    Gains from the 1d1 shuffle??

    I dont see how the 1d1 shuffle would even be hard on the tranny anyway? How is it any harder on your tanny than just trying to manually shift it? After you shift 1-D and then stick it back into 1 it still stays in 2nd gear, So what is it hurting?

    porting stock intake manifold and stock heads?

    Thanks, But, I though going from a 97mph to a 99mph trap was only about 20 hp or so. I was told about 10 hp for every 1 mph (round about). The Et. was from it getting a little better 60ft I think.. BTW.. Im just right across the Clark bridge from you by Alton, IL...
