    Engine What Cam? 289

    I used to think this same thing before I bought an AED. Holleys metering is all jacked off. the CORRECT non holley double pumper for the combination wont have those issues. I would check the plug wires with that low rpm high load stumble. Ive had wires do that and then all of a sudden clear up...

    408 Stroker Runs Hot!!! Help!

    what fan is on it? it could be that there is scale in the blocks water jackets. I would flush it completely. it could be sucking air because of the copper HGs. they are kind of a pain in the ass to seal. and the stuff you seal them with clogs the radiator. is there a spring in the lower radiator...

    Engine What Oil To Use In 89 W/ V2 S-trim

    If you are gonna run this thing on pump gas I would run as cold of a cheap copper core plug as you can and use a champion if possible. if not run an autolite. the cheap ones. not because they are good but because they are garbage and come apart if you look at them. which is a good thing with a...

    Buying A Mustang

    im in TX, so cars don't rust here. That being said: I know of early cars that have lived there whole life in DFW and have rust. Since the factorys started using galvanized metal in the 70s there was no more rust in cars from this area unless there was a brake line issue or something. I would run...

    Frustrated...

    The new cars are nice, but they are missing the death trap feel of the fox body. I guess that's a hard thing to sell new car buyers on now. I guess I should count my blessings, my 93 rarely gives me any trouble. Probably something to do with only driving it about 200 miles a year and the car...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    ok, I thought we were talking about a less serious combo. id put a super victor on it since you are going to push it hard. if you want an efi intake put a TFS R on it, its got runner length and cross section. I don't think the rpm 2 will run as well, especially with the longer stroke. out of...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    he is running 2 61mm turbos, which is a lot of compressor for a 3.4" stroke. with a 3.25 gear. exactly what is your combination and goals? because I was running a t64 and making well over 500rwhp and running 10.60s@131 mph and the short runner didn't hurt a thing. are you building an 8 second...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    a gt40 will go into port stall. everywhere. it advances the whole curve. with a 3.5" stroke itll be more than fine with an ootb vic jr. the problem with runner length under boost is that the longer runners create more friction. friction creates turbulence and you get enough turbulence you...

    Too Much Mileage For Head Swap?

    a new set of heads wont make the shortblock burn oil. if it does it was going to burn oil anyway because it was hurt. that being said, back before I figured out how to make power all motor I ran a lot of power adder stuff. and I have replaced quite a few sets of head gaskets on my cars as well...
