    The Goal is to run 10's: Should I go with all motor 347 Longblock or Turbo?

    I would go the turbo route. You can build a decent setup that will live happily on the street, and add boost to get to your goal. You are only adding more strain when under a WOT boost condition. a buddy of mine went the stroker route and we both agree that we'd have allot more fun had we...

    How to clean the MAF?

    spray some brake cleaner on the wires, I wouldn't use a q-tip, breaking a wire would suk. Anything that dries without leaving a residue will work. No real need to reset the CPU, do it if you want.

    Valve Covers

    Modified stock covers will work.

    What injectors & fuel pump for 347?

    It all depends on how much power you plan on having. For a basic H/C/I 24-30's will be OK.

    roller rockers

    Mine had rivets that I just ground out...no biggie. Crane made the 1.7 rockers that Ford put in the 93 Cobra, they are nice, so are SVO 1.72s(to get a bit more lift). You will probably want to go ahead and get a shim kit in order to adjust them once you get them on.

    VERY SMALL pushrod to head clearance on AFR165's

    Don't worry if they clear, wiggle them around in the guide plate to make sure they dont touch.

    How Much Power Will This Thing Have?(Need a Estimate To Order Injectors)

    When going for injector selection with a blower, don't just go off of RWHP as this does not account for the loss from turning the blower itself. I used 10PSI and 260 FWHP to give a bit of a safety buffer. But your motor is actually producing ~430 HP, this will be closer to 412 FWHP and 350...

    Head swap: easier than 4.6?

    Yes, it can be done in less than 8 hours if you know what you're doing and don't run into anything strange. IMO is rather easy, just take your time and do it right, don't cut any corners.

    Help me think of mods for my stang

    Ignition wont help you, nor will the CAI as it changes the velocity of the air due to the tight bend which makes your MAS give false readings. Pro-Ms are better due to their electronic calibration, where C&L uses tubes. I suggest getting some 1.72 rockers(used are OK if you check them out...

    First time dyno results

    You shouldn't change the timing at all for your 150 shot of nitrous, it's not needed, your dyno results and times will agree. Just change the heat range with of the spark plugs(1 range per 100 HP). I used to back the timing off as well until I saw several of my buds runing full timing.

    Shocks

    If you are looking for simple replacements then any cheapies at your local auto-parts store will do. I've had/heard good things with lakewood drag shocks/struts. I went with Koni yellows on my '90 weekend road race car. Lakewoods will probably be on the all out drag car.

    Help me install a cobra intake. I have pictures.

    Those are all vacuum nipples except for the EGR location. Simply hook up what you need to and plug the rest. Brakes, A/C, EGR, Vapor recovery and PCV all use vacuum.

    Does this work well together

    I have a TFS R with a 1" spacer to go with my higher rpm stroker. But all of the dyno results show the Holley to have the best curve, which combines the max torque of bunch, with the max HP of the several intakes they tested. The RPM would go well with 185s also. If you want a better low...

    IDLE?TPS?SURGEING

    unplug the IAB, set your idle around 600 with the screw. Then plug the IAB back in, if it still surges set your TPS to ~4.5@WOT, you should be good then unless a sensor or two needs to be replaced. You shouldn't have to adjust your idle with the screw(and IAB plugged in), but many people want a...

    Putting stock h-pipe back on...

    the header side of the stock H-pipe is not threaded, you can use the BBK studs, if the threads dont work, you can drill the headers and use nuts.

    compression ?????????????????????

    20 psi is a moderate pressure gain, looks like you are in need of a rebuild!

    If a Rich Mixture smells like gas, what does a lean mixture smell like?

    a lean would smell caustic and burn your eyes. Sounds like your running OK to me. Do you have cats?

    My stock starter on the '90(the big one) comes out fine with my 1-3/4 BBKs.

    Does this work well together

    The Holly seems to be a better all around intake than the track, but that combo will work well.
