    Cam Selection

    Chris, thanks for your input. The cam in there now is .500 int. .520 Exh. @.050 int 218* and 228* on a 114 LC. I'm also going back to a timing chain as I have an Edelbrock Accu-drive gear drive. I think I'm done with the gear noise, but it has been quite reliable for the past 23 years. With...

    Electrical Id This Clutch Pedal Plug

    When I did mine, I took the AOD pedal and put it on with the clutch pedal. I just liked the bigger pedal. Been 25 years now without an issue.

    Cam Selection

    Had to remove heads because of HG failure, so I'm contemplating a cam change. Has an Iskenderian custom now, but would like something with a little more lope. Stock bottom end, Edelbrock 6025 heads, GT-40 tubular, 42's, S-trim Vortech. Suggestions and experiences will be appreciated. Not...

    What Intake Gaskets Are You Using With Success

    Doing HG's on my Fox and pulled out FP 90361's. They have been in since '94 and upon further research, they seem to be stockers. I have GT-40 intake with Edelbrock aluminums. I saw a Ford Racing set that was pricey, but the ports look huge. M-9439-A50. What gaskets are you using with success...

    The Use Of Fel-pro Loc-wire Gaskets.

    The groove in the head is now gone. Machine shop removed them when they decked the heads. What I think I'm really after is a recommendation on a head gasket to use. I will reuse the ARP studs. I'm not sure what gaskets the machine shop said he'll supply. Would like to know what some of you...

    The Use Of Fel-pro Loc-wire Gaskets.

    After 23 years of babying and some all out blasts, the head gaskets finally went. 10 lbs of centrifugal boost, Edelbrock aluminum heads and a stock bottom end. When I bought the heads in 93 (Performer 5.0), the newest thing was getting your heads cut for the loc wire gaskets. Not wanting to...

    Thrown Rod On Rebuilt Motor!? How?

    Sounds to me he may have missed torquing that rod bolt. My condolences on your loss. For the future, You ALWAYS pull the pan on completed engines you purchase just for a once over.

    Foxbody 5.0 Coolant Leak Resolution

    My pass side HG is leaking now. Also supercharged and I use Loc-wire gaskets. Went 23 years before any leaks. It's at the front of the engine also. Was a bitch to find, but used the pressure testing method and low and behold, there was the leak. Kinda more like a gusher, but I digress...

    How To Remove This Pulley??

    I have a March P/S pulley on my car and it looks nothing like yours. My pulley had to be "pulled" off with the special puller that grabs the lip around the pulley shaft, then reinstalled by pushing it back on. It's a press fit. I have no idea what pulley yours is. The pulley shaft should be...

    Msd Checkout.

    Plugs were replaced about 20 miles ago. They are also the proper heat range. The ones that came out were a beautiful grey color with no spotting. Those plugs were in there since '93 with about 20K miles on them.

    Msd Checkout.

    I've had my car since new, and did mods back in the early 90's. Gets about 500 miles a year now. Last two years, I'm getting what I think is some detonation when getting on it. When audible, I lift right away. I'm thinking maybe the MSD could have taken a dump? Is there anyway to diagnose it...

    Spark Plug Selection For Boosted Application

    Thanks, but $500 for a tuner with a daughter in college isn't in the cards now. I'd rather experiment with $2.00 plugs. Has an FMU and I have a 255 in-tank and a T-Rex external. Can you just suggest one range colder than the 23's?

    Spark Plug Selection For Boosted Application

    Blower is a V-1 "S" trim. Whatever the stock boost is, that's what it is. No intercooler. I use 93 octane supposedly no ethanol. I think I misprinted the plug type. I think they are 3923's. Can you suggest a plug that is a range colder? I can start from there. This motor was built back in...

    Cater Camber Plates For Lowered Fox ?'s

    I have had Hotchkis CC plates for 20 years. Best on the market IMO. You will probably have to do a bumpsteer kit also. I have the Steeda.

    Spark Plug Selection For Boosted Application

    Don't want to get too wordy, but I have detonation when the pedal is hit hard. Normal driving street and hwy is uneventful. A friend at work told me I should go for a colder plug. I did go one colder when I built motor. GT-40 int. Edelbrock heads, 14mm x 3/4 plugs. 3624's were called...

    Pulling Eec-4 Codes.

    I read the "sticky" on pulling the codes and believe I may have an issue along with others. I have done an AOD to 5-speed swap. Applying clutch pedal, I believe, won't work to access codes. I didn't connect neutral safety switch as I always depress clutch when starting. I can't seem to access...
