    70NE's custom EFI conversion writeup - Part 1

    What type of IAC? Stepper or Pulse Width Modulated (PWM)? For the fan control you can use the Fidle output.. simple there. Fuel pump control is standard build. Haven't played with knock sensing myself.

    70NE's custom EFI conversion writeup - Part 1

    Good luck buddy! I'll certainly help where I can. Have you decided what equipment you're going to use yet? My advice at this point: Read through the megamanual, and this time pay particular attention to the MSII assembly instructions. There are about 4 or 5 spots where you have a...

    70NE's custom EFI conversion writeup - Part 1

    Sucks about the carb! You don't need to buy everything right away. You could start with the ECU and wiring... that way you can at least do things like datalogging, and start learning about the ECU, etc. Then when you have the money you can start adding sensors (for better datalogging), and...

    Move the spring mounts 2" back.

    I'd try moving the WG reference line to a spot before the throttle blade. At least only temporarily as a test. Dustin is right, it should work just fine in the location you're using but I'd still be tempted to give it a try. The pressure in the intake isn't nearly as smooth as it is before...

    What do you mean by "vented from both sides"? Do you mean the wastegate? If so, then that's the problem. The gate won't open until very high boost without a reference line hooked up.

    Roll axle backwards 2in on leaf springs?

    The centering pin will be a problem. You could definately drill a hole in the leafpack for a new pin, but I'd be worried the leafs would crack/break at the old pin's location. Like 10secgoal mentions you'd also have to shim the axle, get a longer driveshaft, and possibly replace brake...

    Yeah, There's definately a problem if he's got the 9PSI spring and it's hitting 15PSI. I was under the impession he had the 15PSI spring in there. I really doubt the exhaust backpressure is opening the gate tho. At least not by itself with the exhaust system he describes. Is he using a...

    Reaching 15PSI quickly isn't a problem or an indicator of a potential WG problem (so long as the WG is set for 15PSI). It's just a matter of whether the WG can keep the boost from climbing any higher. You may want to look into a 10 PSI spring for now until you can figure out what's going on...

    Damn, I'm sorry to hear that. I guess I should count myself lucky. Course, I'm running a lot less boost. Have you invested in that wideband yet? Guess you'll need a way to datalog as well. Whatcha using to control timing? From what i've heard the Tial Wastegate's are very...

    Sorry to hear that :( So do you know what's going on? That's the 3rd gasket now right? Time for studs and a MLS gasket?

    Do I need longer studs going with 1inch spacers?

    You won't be able to use an adapter in the rear. For an adapter you need 1" or more thickness to clear the factory studs. 7/16" is pushing it with the factory length studs. It will depend on your wheels. Installing new studs is pretty easy and cheap... I've done it myself for the same reason.

    pink resistor wiring- easy way to do it?

    Hmmm... I didn't think the 65's came with the resistor wire. I was under the impression those cars had a balast resistor. Maybe I've got it backwords and it was the newer mustangs that had the balast resistor.

    Lookin good. What's the PDA for? Your BOV sounds alot different than mine. Mine's a 50mm but seems to take longer to let the pressure out. Probably because of the intercooler. So what did break? HG again?

    67 mustang i found to restore is it worth it?

    I wouldn't restore that car if someone gave it to me for free. The body is just too far gone.

    Timing Advance

    I agree. I'd start with the numbers above. Of course, timing will change with each engine/combo. Having said that. 20* initial is WAY too much in most cases, and usually you don't want full advance before 3000RPM. A lot of people will suggest to wait until 3500RPM for full advance just...

    Thanks.. both of those explanations make complete sense.

    1st test drive with the new turbo

    That doesn't make sense to me at all. Pressure does not mean more time in the intercooler. The air is comming out the other side at the same rate it's being fed in at. The only thing that will effect "time in the intercooler" is the total volume of the intercooler. The volume doesn't...

    1st test drive with the new turbo

    I'm curious about this statement. From what I know.... pressure drop has no effect on heat transfer. Can you explain why a pressure drop is required for proper heat transfer? Thanks.

    1st test drive with the new turbo

    65Shelby is on the money.. I also am not sure what's required to modify a carb for blow-thu. Like mentioned, there's lots of info out there... I went the EFI route. You definately need to make mods to the carb for a blow thru setup. 10secgoal can probably answer this with much more...
