    Are Roller Cams Worth It?

    ok, after reading this post i feel compelled to help or thouroughly confuse. the roller cam allows for much greater HP and tq because of the more agressive ramp profiles possible. an engine is considered near zero friction anyway because of the oil. using an engine building program such as...

    Noisy fuel pump

    clogged, dirty, or cavitating i used a holley blue for a long time and it never made noise until one fateful day when it failed due to some crud in the gas line on the suction side of the pump. since that style of pump has very little suction it is critical to have a good gravity feed to the...

    10secgoal i like your work! looks good. i have some ideas for you to consider when putting together a kit that will be sold to "joe public" basically i'd suggest you mimic the paxton novi add on kit. and what i mean is limit boost to around 9psi, and include instructions for buyers on how to...

    Supercharging Questions.

    mech sec would be better but there is a thread located on www.turbomustangs.com in the carb forum that addresses converting a vac. sec. carb. for blow thru. it is however easier and safer to modify a mech sec carb for blowthru.

    aftermarket CAST IRON heads?

    combustion chamber heat i believe that the heat dissipation of aluminum vs. cast iron heads is being greatly exagerated in this discussion. the most important thing to consider is that heat is a byproduct of making power. once the combustion event takes place the heat that remains is doing...

    1 wire alternator wiring harness?

    as far as i know the only way to get 100amp or more out of a ford alternator is to convert to a 3G or get a powermaster (GM style) the largest ford non 3G that i could find was a lincoln 85 amp but when it died i could not find the repacement, all the autostores only had a 65 amp unit. i even...

    roots vs. centrifical blower

    Procharger personally i'm a big fan of the centrifugal blower. its stealthy, more efficient and easier on the engine and of course i'm biased because thats what i put on my car. it really all depends on what you want to do. a cent blower or turbo will require a much more elaborate fuel...

    If you were to choose....

    i'd go for the 5sp either the TKO 500 or 600, not sure if they fit properly in a 65-66 mustang but i'm probably goin to find out this year since i'd like to ditch my c4 in favor of a manual transmission. as far as clutch assemblys go the hyd. throwout bearing is by far the best. i am not a big...

    Carb help needed

    could be a blown power valve. it should be on the front metering block like a holley. or it could be that the accelerator pump is activating while at idle, possibly caused by the thottle blades being opened too far or the accel pump cam needs adjustment. other things it could be are: dirt or...

    Carb recommendation

    no this is a generic statement that is simply not true. there are many factors that go into the design of a carbuerator. a carb that is too big will actually create a lean condition. by trying to tune the carb an overly rich idle circuit will result in an attempt to correct the lean...
