    I can unscrew the oil fill cap and it would probably stay there all day because there is so much crankcase vaccum. I don't know exactly what is inside the motor. It seems bone stock. My car is a 90 and the motor is a speed density setup, so I have no idea where it came from or mileage or...

    what about the baffle thing on the bottom of the lower intake that sits in the lifter valley? What does that do? It seems like it is sucking oil up through that somehow. The tube that runs from the valve cover to the TB has been removed and capped off. I have also tried pulling the PCV valve...

    Supercharger BOV Question

    With a draw through MAF(stock type), the meter is placed before the supercharger, which means that if you use a blow off valve it would be blowing off air that had already been registered by the meter.....which in turn would create a rich condition. With a blow through meter....the meter can be...

    I know that the 93GT that I had a few years back didn't have anykind of a vaccum line going to the MAP sensor, and two of my friend's cars are the same way. They all seem to run fine. Actually my 93 was going 12.60s on about a mid 13s combo.....so it ran better than "fine". I know it's a...

    yes, there is oil at the bottom of the TB, but I have no possible explination of how it got there, because the tube that goes from the valve cover to the TB is gone and both the V cover and T body have been capped off. LOL....see what I mean?

    This motor is actually in my notch right now. I had no plans on using this motor at all. I have a carbed windsor sitting on the stand ready to go in, but I have yet to buy a flywheel, fuel system plumbing, and various other small details need to complete the swap. I just thought since the...

    They all look pretty good to me except for the one that runs from under the upper and goes to the canister on the pass. side. Even so, I tried capping that one off and got no change. And there is still that little issue of massive amount of blue smoke coming out the back:shrug: It pretty...

    For some reason I think this is a pcv/vaccum related problem. When the car is idling high, if I pinch the vac line running to the map sensor it insantly idles down and starts smoking. I'm not looking at it right now but I believe the vac lines on intake are as follows One small one coming...

    messing around with a completely stock speed density mustang today. It was idling at like 1500 RPM with throttle body all the way closed and IAC disconnected. The IAC is working properly. I found a vaccum hose that had come off. As soon as the vaccum hose was put back on the idle came down to...

    4:10s...

    I had 4.10s in a 93GT that a sold a few years back. They were great for awhile. I could pull 1.60 short times with slicks at the track, but after awhile the 4.10s were too much for the quarter mile. I got to the point that if I was going to go any faster at the track I would have to step down...

    pic request...275/50/15 with 8" wheel 5.5BS

    Is backspacing the same as offset? I bought these wheels off of a guy who bought them and never used them, so I didn't know the exact diminsions of them. I just know that when I got the tires mounted today, when he put them on the balancer, he swung this little arm thingy around to the rim...

    I had 245/50/16 Nitto DRs on chrome pony wheels before now. Maybe I'm just used to looking a those tiny Nittos. I wanted to lower the car slightly, but I guess that's out the window now.

    I just put my draglites on this morning. the rims are 15x8 and I have MT 275/50/15 ET street DRs. The rims have a 5.5 BS. The problem is that I think they stick out too far. I think that even if I roll the lip, they will still rub. Anybody have pics of this same combo on their car? Seems...

    intake doesn't line up on my 351w??

    Hey look, that one looks like the same exact design as mine, besides it is obviously wider for the FE engine. I hate it when people get all "I'm smarter than you" when they dont know what they are talking about. I will give it to you that it does look like a dual plane at first sight. So, if I...

    intake doesn't line up on my 351w??

    "stupid"? maybe do a little homework before saying that I look stupid. Yes...dual plane intakes have a center divider. Yes....so does mine. But,.....on a dual plane intake, one side feeds two cylinders on the right bank and two on the left. Also.....on a dual plane, one of the divided...

    ext. electric fuel pump location?

    I am getting ready to plumb the fuel system on my notch. I am using a rear sumped tank with a Holley Blue pump. Does the pump have to be level with the outlets on the tank? I would like to put the pump and filter up higher where it will be out of sight, but I was told that if the pump is higher...
