    New 331 but will not stay running?????

    Yeah, the cam makes the firing order, not the crank, I'd put my money on you have a non HO cam. That means you have to change the injector harness around too doesn't it?

    Tranny Issues.

    Try reaching your hand up to the quadrant, and push the pedal just a tiny bit, the grab the quadrant and pull it counter clockwise, it should click. Then try to shift and drive it, if it works, then you should get an aftermarked quadrant.

    AOD Interchange

    That's not accurate. In some trucks and vans they had the wide ratio gears, along with super coupes. AODE is "electronic". I've never seen a difference in tailshafts either, that would mean that the output shaft is different too, and I've only seen one, and I've built quite a few.

    Sounds like clutch and syncros, are you running the stock quadrant?

    87 85mph to 140mph question-changed gear & still off

    Did you just put a 140 face on a 85 speedo? I didn't think that would work, I could be wrong.

    B-E-F-X-Z-303....I'm SO fuggin' Confused!!

    Go with the Trickflow Stage 1. Idle sounds great, nice lope, will shred the tires off the line, and pulls great at 3500+, and I have stock unported heads, the cam made a huge difference. It's cheaper too.

    *checks watch* Stupid question time

    You probably need a clutch, maybe your oil leak caused premature failure.

    Fairly simple question....

    I just did it 3 times, (don't ask) Make sure you have the right springs and keepers first off. I got the fitting to put in the spark plug hole, and hook it up to an air compressor, that keeps the valves up. Then I got a hand valve spring compressor for chevy's and just used an old intake bolt to...

    Is it possible to hit 13,s with my mods?

    We see way too much of this 24# too big crap. What did they put on the 93 cobra?? Ah yes 24's, does it need them, no. Does it hurt, NOT AT ALL. It is considered a mod because it is not stock. Is it a performance mod, right now, no, but it is a mod and it won't hurt. Look up 25thmustang, he runs...

    very high miles...5.0 vs 4.6

    My old 88 with 273 gears and speed density went for 32-35 mpg on the highway. At the track with street tires, it ran 14.3 with 180,000 miles on it, and bone stock except for the removed air silencer. Plus, fox bodies look better. (just my opinion) :)

    FEW ?"s ....IM LOST

    If you run 1.6 you can run the stock valve springs. If not, buy a set of aftermarket heads or go with thumpers, It'll save you the headache of bending all your pushrods and breaking rockers.
