    BBk shorty questions

    BBK shorty equal lengths are about 1-1.5 inches wider than the stock headers from collector to collector. I found this out the hard way when mounting my x pipe. I had go go back to my unequal lengths and have somebody pry on the X pipe while I bolted up the collector. I did eventually get it to...

    Advantages of 5-lug Conversion

    Brakes are a large part of it and to be able to use OEM pads and rotors. Wheels were secondary to me. Kevin

    Which one is better? Comments, opinions welcomed

    Idealy you want ~3000 cfm. A proven fan is the taurus fan. You really can't go wrong with it. Of the ones listed, you should probably stick with a stocker... Kevin

    "E" cam vs. tfs stg1 vs. stock ho cam

    The stock cam is right at home with a stock or even mildly modded motor. The cam is not the bottleneck of the HO motor. The intake and heads are way more restrictive. The E and Stage 1 are great for around the town drivability. The Stage 1 will net you a little more power and give you more lope...

    5.0 combo for EFI-noob questions

    For a 306 I would do 165s but that is just me. If it were a stroker or 351 I would go with 185s. Custom cam for sure. 24lbs injectors with a MAF calibrated for 24s should be good. For driveability, I would go with a steel flywheel but if you already have the AL one, use it. For a clutch, a...

    Recommend headers

    @ BlueReefHatch, I would save the long tubes for when you do the top end kit. Yes you can probably gain a little power but it is hardly worth the trouble of the install if you have to go digging in there again to swap heads. Kevin

    Recommend headers

    If you are looking for motor mods, the intake is the largest restriction on the HO motor. For a budget build, Pick up an cobra/explorer intake and put it on. Other bang for the buck mods are gears(3.73 for auto 3.55 for manual is typical upgrade), subframe connectors. Leave the stock airbox. It...

    93 Cobra brake booster install

    Seriously, the hardest part of the swap was navigating under the dash to get the bolts in and out. Other than that, it was a simple upgrade. Tip: pull your front seat out when going under the dash. I know it sounds like too much trouble but it was soooo much easier. Kevin

    Recommend headers

    They don't really add much of anything to a stockish motor but sound. What are your other mods? I am sure we can find something in the 250-350 dollar budget that will net you better gains than headers. Unless you are pushing more than 300hp through the motor, the stockers are right at home. All...

    93 Cobra brake booster install

    On my 90 I just had to elongate that one hole. Just a few bangs with my fist and it went in. No need to massage the shock tower. Great upgrade for any fox! Kevin

    BBK Shorty Headers installed on stock H-Pipe

    Done BBK shorties to two cars. One equal lenght and one not. With the stock H pipe they both work just fine. The equal lengths are about a half inch wider than the unequal length bbk shorties. When you get into the aftermarket X or H pipes is when you run into issues. I would suggest going with...

    Tri-ax vs. Pro 5.0 vs. MGW on a T5

    I had an MGW and hated it. It lead to the demise of my poor old T5 because it was just too awesome for the T5. The shifts were too sharp and quick for the T5 to handle. Third fell way too easily into place if you just push the shifter forward. It was way too much fun for the old 130k...

    Cost effective street manifold

    Explorer/cobra or a typhoon(edelbrock knock off) are great intakes for a tight budget. Kevin

    Front brakes & 8.8 rear axle from a 2003 GT

    The 03 front end will work. They will widen your front about 1.5 inches wider than the 94/95 spindles end so keep that in mind if you run into rubbing. Worse case, you can still use the calipers, rotors and such and just replace the spindles. Many people use them so give it a try, you have...
