    T-5 tranny any good????

    I think the T-45 is rated up to 400hp. It does shift a bit better than the 3650, but I would go with the TKO and not have to worry about breaking when pulling powershifts.

    compression test results. post Headswap.

    Hey, did you take your motor out to do the swap?? I saw that you had head studs and I was wondering since the bottom head bolts can't be removed from the head when it's in the car.

    BBK L/Ts Installed- Best Mod Yet!!!!!

    Hey man, what post are you on?? I love the auto shop, it sames me so much time and money being able to do all my work myself with a full on shop at my disposal. I am about to tackle my PI swap and LT's when the head porting is done. So you dropped the K-member to do it? I think I will end up...

    Did anyone know Reichard Racing makes a upper intake for the 2 valve

    Those parts are for use with the RR sheet metal intake to convert it from round to oval throttle body. It's not an part that can be used on a stock intake.

    PI Head Swap?????

    Go to the forums at modular depot. You will find a lot of information about the swap there. For starters you will need all the gaskets,heater tube, head bolts, and an alt. bracket. There are some things you can use and alternative for such as the heater tube in the valley ( you can use regular...

    01 motor in a 96 need help

    Use all of the electronics and sensors from your old motor. You don't need the 01 harness or computer. You are basically just swapping longblocks, just act like it's another 96 motor and put it in.

    Finally have some money

    That deal on ebay is a damn good deal, if you an get it for that price I would grab that for sure. I got my heads for $200 but I'm still piecing the rest of the stuff for the swap together. I'm also doing longtubes at the same time so the wait to get it all together is killing me! Just ask...

    Changed injectors, now it won't start!

    Are you sure they work? Are you sure you didn't unplug anything else?? It takes a few seconds for the fuel to fill the rail after they've been emptied. Why did you swap them out in the first place, did your stockers go bad??

    Dropping a 4.6 in a 96-98 V6????? How hard?

    The fuel systems on the 96-98 V6 are return style, so sticking with 96-97 wiring and computer will cut down on the work. I would go with the 99+ longblock for the obvious power reasons and a T-45 for a trouble free tranny(compared to the 3650). You will have to have the PATS reflased to the...

    3.73s vs 4.10s

    Depends on what you want and how you drive. I love my 4.10's, yet I also like my buddy's car that has 3.73's. 4.10's for drag racing definately. 3.73's for a lot of driving and not really much track use, or if you can't handle the slightly higher RPMS or shifting requirements of the 4.10's. I...

    GT 4.6 project start

    Shifter! PRO 5.0 or Steeda. Gears -4.10, longtubes, exhaust, PI headswap, some really sticky tires and you would be shooting in the mid 13's. I'm running 15.4 (corrected to 14.9-it's hot and humid here) with nothing more than exhaust and gears really and I have a considerable amount of...

    Nub question about PI Heads and intake

    Check ebay and the ads here on stangnet, mustangworld, corral, and modulardepot for deal on the heads. I got mine for $250 shipped and I'm picking up the intake from the same sources. Shop around and you can save a few bucks. Also for the parts to complete the swap look up Randy Stinchomb at...

    Somesthing is seriously wrong.....

    Well, even when it's cool around 4-5 in the morning I'll take it for a spin and it still feels a bit flat. Thanks for all the suggestions. I'm going to check the plug gaps, wire resistance, fuel pressure, and go over every connection(vaccuum) on the motor tomorrow. I'm just trying to beat this...

    Do it yourself porting on Non-PI heads....?

    I'm about to port a set of PI heads that I bought. Sure I'm a bit "nervous" about puttig them under the knife, but I know i will enjoy the benefits. I am going to start with the lightest abrasive I can that will take off material and give me the surface I want and just take my time. I'm not...

    Do it yourself porting on Non-PI heads....?

    Well the basic gasket matching, short radius, valve guide, and polishing the exhaust port/combustion chamber work are pretty much the same. The main thing is the vertical emissions shroud on the intake vavle that needs to be laid back and blended into the chamber. If you are going to be doing...

    Exhaust leak, how does it look like ?

    There isn't any fluid betwen the engine and transmission. It could possibly be a rear main seal or a transmission output seal. . .you should be able to tell the difference between th fluids-tranny fluid has a red tint to it. The rear main is pretty easy to replace, it's just a lot of tedious...

    Somesthing is seriously wrong.....

    Best run was a 15.40 @ 90. My DA corrected time is 14.94 @ 92.57. Is a 14.9 too far off pace?
