    CrankShaft Thrust Bearing Wiped Out, Why?

    Thrust bearings getting wiped out gets real old, real quick. I had two bearings get wiped out. If it had happened a third time the car was going to get parted out, but fortunately it held. Some things to check... Make sure that the end play of the crank is within recommended limits Make sure the...

    Who owns this red fox body with Cobra R hood - Sweet!

    Does anybody recognize this car? It is exactly what I want mine to turn out like. When I saved the image it was titled "BobsPics" if that helps anyone. I need to find out the paint codes as well as where he got the hood from. Would also like to see any other pics. Thanks!

    What should The fuel pressure be set at?

    39-40 psi is fine as a starting point. But the reality is that it doesn't really matter what you set your fuel pressure at. Once your car goes into closed loop and reads the O2 sensors it will adjust the pulse width of your injectors to get the A/F to where it thinks it should be - will it be...

    Chip or Tune?

    If your interested I have a 4 bank SCT eliminator chip that I am planning on selling - I am going to get a PMS setup from Anderson Ford Motorsports. You can have it for $100 shipped if you like - they usually retail around $250 I think. The 4 bank chip allows you to have 4 different tunes - one...

    Chip or Tune?

    A chip (for example an SCT Eliminator chip) is a chip that plugs into the EEC IV computer in your car - a tune can be burned onto this chip - to do that you have to remove the chip and plug it into a piece of hardware attached to your laptop, and burn the settings you want for fuel, timing, etc...

    How does an A/F sensor hook up to the Tweecer?

    Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I can't seem to find a good answer to this. I am planning on getting a Tweecer RT and am looking at AF sensors. From what I have read, most of the A/F sensors have a 0-5V analog output and this is what is used to input the A/F ratio into the Tweecer to allow...

    who can measure a cam?

    Yep - Cam Dr will do it. You can also put a degree wheel on it and figure out some of the main timing events but it won't tell you anything about ramp rates etc

    Trick Flow vs March A/C delete kits?

    If you go this route, then you will have a pulley in place of the AC pump - looks like ass if you ask me - FRPP kit is the way to go.

    Best Tires?

    I am running 275/40/R17s Nitto drag radials on the back - excellent street tire. They do just fine in the wet - much better than I expected. Excellent grip in the dry on the street. For drag racing, the BFGs probably wil hook better, but they won't last as long, and arenot a great tire in the...

    birthday present ideas IM CHEAP

    Presumably you know what sort of food she likes - cook her dinner, nice bottle of red wine, some good quality chocolate and a card with a hand written note about how you feel about her should do the trick. Under no circumstances buy any jewelry, or any gift over about $10 unless you have a...

    Bad brake booster check valve?

    Did you adjust the rod from the booster so it was the correct length for the new MC? Sounds like it might be a bit short, if there is play for the first inch or so. To check the check valve, start the car and let it warm up. Once it is warmed up switch it off, wait a few minutes and pull the...

    Which valve covers clear TF roller rockers keeping the baffle?

    I need to get new valve covers - I am getting oil in my intake - if I pull off the air intake tube there is a little puddle of oil at the bottom of the TB. I am using FRPP cast aluminum finned valve covers, but to get them to fit, I needed to remove the baffle and grind down the bosses. Well now...

    How to replace rear brake shoes

    One thing I would suggest when you tackle this job, is only do one side at a time! You can use the other side to see how it all goes back together if you get stuck half way through. It's kind of a jigsaw thing - put this thing here, pull that spring there - I am at a loss for how someone...

    Requesting pics: GT500 rims on a fox!

    That's a sweet looking mustang ruined with the GT500 wheels. I am finishing up my 5 lug conversion and looked at the GT500s and FR500s - both look like ass IMHO - the only other wheel that I looked at was this one - the 10th anniversary wheels. Don't know if you can get it in 4 lug. I ended up...

    Is a Factory Five roadster a mustang?

    With regard to emissions of a Factory Five roadster, it will depend on your states regulations - it will vary from state to state - some are real easy like WA state, and some are pretty strict. In some states you can register it as a '65 and be exempt, and in others it has to be registered the...
