    4-cyl mustang gas mileage?

    Not sure how people are getting these extreme numbers, my 4cyl auto got 19mpg AVG. I do almost exactly 50/50 surface versus highway 15miles each way.. That is computed over 4 tanks of fuel with little fluctuation.. My 95 Vert 5spd gets 15-17mpg on the same commute depending on how much I...

    302-351

    Also the Intake will not fit from a to a 5, taller deck means wider valley. Heads yes, cam maybe yes, but not lower intake. Like someone said, heads intake will cost you much power, not even worth the trouble of the swap. You could probably spend all the $ for the 351 and swap parts on...

    Fox seat weight vs. SN95 seat weight?

    GOD BLESS FORD! :-p:flag: Nice when a Co Sticks with something for a while ands make the consumers life simpler. I see many more SN seats up for sale than I ever do Fox, that will make fixing that seat much nicer, plus I like the seats in my 95 better than the fox ones.

    Fox seat weight vs. SN95 seat weight?

    Are these bolt in swaps or is redrilling/mounting needed? The drivers seat in my 89 Notch is wasted and I see a few 94-96 seats around locally....

    source for 2.3na heat/cool lines and Vac diagrams?

    Title says it all. I just got a '89 2.3l Auto car. have a few issues I want to resolve. Heavy pedal, feels like brake booster not fully assisting. brakes themselves have good grip to rotors/drums and the car stops nice, but the pedal is heavy and thick feeling, almost like engine is off...

    WA state inspection process? what to check for

    Yes it should be exempt from emissions, but possibly not from other inspections to bring it into the state? Did the DMV actually tell you it needed to be inspected? I had a car brought in from AZ a few years back, was an '86, never needed inspection, just sniff test..

    5-lug conversion

    The ranger rotors include the hub just like the stock Fox rotors, so using the 96+ spindles is not an option... I read fully the http://svo73mm.cjb.net/ page and it spelled it out clearly, if only I reads clearly.....

    5-lug conversion

    So what year rangers are used for the swap? I am mostly after wheels choices and save $$ right now. If I can just buy ranger front rotors, a pair of LEFT ranger rear axles, and a pair of ranger drums then that seems like a dream come true... This is a driver so I am not super critical on...

    Thinking about converting to a factory roller cam setup? Think again.

    I will second the thumbs up for Delta Cam's. Not done the roller conversion, but on more than one occaision they have bailed me out and Jerry always tells you the situation straight up, no games or voodoo talk to make you buy something.

    Nitro R/C Cars/trucks

    I have run various RC. 1/10 elect stadium trucks were the most fun and "all around" usable though. real deep grass they faulter, but they are insanely rugged, least my Associated RC10T3 was. I have vids jumping it 25ft off tables and cartwheeling off screen, landed on it's wheels and kept...

    Anyone have a tweecer RT?

    Yeah no FP log, but I was hoping to at least get a good read on timing/rpm/O2 levels which should really narrow it down. I have premium Chevron in her now and WOT she scares me with the noise. Not pulled plugs yet because not have anyplace I can do a WOT pull and shutdown safely before she...

    Anyone have a tweecer RT?

    Not sure what you mean by have something on the car? She is stock aside from AFPR, on Rail FP Guage and K&N filter. the AFPR and guage were added after the problems started, I was thinking was a fuel issue, but even raising FP did not change it. 94/95 Take a unique distrib, they are remote...

    Anyone have a tweecer RT?

    I am just hoping combined with my LC1 hooked to tweecer I could get data logs and see if maybe timing was erratic (I just had to replace distrib few months back as mine died, so maybe ECU is bad and killing them?) Or if everything was showing as good, but still bad, points me to bad injectors...
