    detunning the 351w

    i didn't really think about the maintenance end of keeping the car up. i guess you are right, that might be my cheapest route. i hate the thought of driving something like that, but i guess i'll have to bite the bullet and get some rice:D . thanks jake

    detunning the 351w

    my tune is decent enough, pretty close i would say. the cam is 236/248 579/579.

    detunning the 351w

    would detunning the 351 with a stock cam and 30# injectors gain back some economy? and would the gain be significant or minute? reason i ask is because i'll be commuting over a hundred miles a day when i transfer to my next university.

    start from scratch?

    i am currently trying to get a tune going again after a repair of a broken piston, replacement of heavily damaged headers, and a new cam. for the experienced tuner's would this be an occasion to start from scratch or tweak on what i have already got? thanks jake

    Poll: LSx Motor in a Mustang

    the ls-7 only puts down 450 to the wheels. you could easliy surpass that with a 351 stroked to 427. matching the cubes and getting heads and cam and you'll be there in power levels. there is a guy on corral (windsornotchback) that makes 500rwhp with his 427 and still gets 20mpg.

    cam dowel pin?

    both of the pins were the same length? and i hadn't done cam swap in a ford before so i was unsure. i was thinking about just taking the cutoff wheel and cut a little off of the dowel. it's in there all right. i'll see when my new timming gear and chain comes. thanks jake
