    408 Will Not Start. Plugs Full Of Fuel

    I should also note, I have a brand new aeromotive fuel pressure regulator. I'm wondering if the distributor was not installed correctly. I'm almost positive I did it right. If the dist was off it would still spark and the injectors would still fire correct?

    408 Will Not Start. Plugs Full Of Fuel

    Ok this is my second issue. I had a corrupt file in my tune that was keeping my fuel pump priming, and I fixed that issue. My new problem is the car has spark right to the plugs, and fuel pressure. It is a 408. All of the wiring on the car worked with my old setup. I have an sct chip, and...

    Having Trouble Starting My 408

    It is the chip. I have a spare ecm here. I put that in the car, turned the key, and the fuel pump primed on and then turned off. Then I took the ecm with the chip, took the chip out, and put that ecm in and the fuel pump primed and then shut off. I put the chip back in, and the problem...

    Having Trouble Starting My 408

    Long story. I bought a 408 stroker motor for my 93. My 93 was originally a 4cyl car, that I converted to a 8 cyl. It had a 306 for two years. And yes I did the conversion the right way. So I buy the 408. I am reusing all my wiring that ran the 306. I changed out the fuel pump from a 225...

    351 Trick flow box r intake and 4 inch hood, will it work?

    You can't ditch the spacer on the box intake. It bolts to the upper, and then gets bolted to the lower.

    351 Trick flow box r intake and 4 inch hood, will it work?

    I had the spacer milled down to 3/8. Nothing on the upper or lower. I talked to trick flow and they told me dont mill the upper, just the lower. I dont think its going to be enough though

    351 Trick flow box r intake and 4 inch hood, will it work?

    ok so I put the intake on, and put the hood on. The hood is hitting the elbow on the intake. I am wondring if I can cut into the hood a little bit. If not maybe have a performance show do the spacers.

    351 Trick flow box r intake and 4 inch hood, will it work?

    ok I am having the spacer milled down to 3/8. I am gonna try that. Every dealer and manufacter I talk to says they cant believe that it wont fit. I'm sure somebody has this same setup. I cannot drop motor mounts because of headers and oil pan. I want to avoid spacers because of other...

    351 Trick flow box r intake and 4 inch hood, will it work?

    I looked into spacers, and its more than just putting spacers in. You have to change the angle of the trans and rear, and make sure your wires and cables reach. I mocked it up a little better tonight. I'm going to have the spacer on the intake machined, and then check it again. Worse case...

    351 Trick flow box r intake and 4 inch hood, will it work?

    I dont think I can use the lower motor mounts because of my long tube headers. I think they may fit right. Is there some kind of kit to lower the crossmember?
