    new short block on the way

    That would be the short dowel...all late model Fords use the short. I'd gently set the pin in with the cam in place. Make sure you check the cam end play once installed...its .004 -.008 installed. Install the thrust plate & gear, no chain and TQ to spec then use a dial indicator to check the...

    Fox throttle body swap questions

    Its all good Bro... :nice: I'd have to hunt for the graphs... I just brought the 75 to see the dif and I knew it was a 15 minute swap on the dyno...Think I lost TQ but gained a few ponies...That wasnt on this 331 though.

    Fox throttle body swap questions

    One dyno session I swapped to a GT40 tubular intake to see the gains and when done, I swapped out my 65 to a 75 Accu on the spot and gained a whooping 2 ponies with no other change....:D I been running the Fox swap forever myself..was one of the first round here to do it and wouldn't go...

    idle problems help

    Mines gone as well along with the smog tubes to the back of the heads...everything....As I mentioned....you set the EGR plunger 1/2 way & secure...puter see's all is fine...never had a CEL. You have a sensor that plugs into the factory EGR plug that does the same I guess??

    idle problems help

    Been there had that...clutch in, it dies. Check the voltage then do the other steps...odds are the TPS is fine..I find they very rarely move once set. Clutch in and it stall is more in the later portion of the reset...it needs to learn to idle with a load on it. Do you have a stock IAC to...

    idle problems help

    Try this link... its worked on mine. Id recommend all the steps if you never set the idle or TPS voltage. My Fox swap has been problem free on the idle and such and your mods shouldn't be doing jack to hurt it or throw things off. The Corral

    Bought a new car, now what to do with the '95

    Nice choice...Been spending this Winter on Ebay watching 99-2000 Vette's my self...had the itch for years to get one. I'm torn between a Vette or maybe going old school and saying screw it to computer, sensors and all that crazy stuff that makes new stuff such a pain... I was thinking...

    Newbie Build

    Those are OEM stiffeners... they go on the outside when you bolt the pan up. If your running a stock pan them use em...no sense asking for a oilpan leak.

    GT40 intake swap help

    What he said...You have to re-jive all the vac stuff as the GT40 ports differ.. If your running stock valve covers you should be fine there.

    Gear Install - Backlash Question

    Exactly...your hardware and those gears. My first set I swapped was a used set of 355s and all came right into spec. The worst part is crushing that bearing and creeping up on the preload. It takes a chitload of wrenching to get the bearing to start to crush...just do some and feel for...

    Gear Install - Backlash Question

    On FRPP gears I always swap whatever pinion shim is on there over to the new pinion and so far it came into spec everytime as Ford runs a master dimension on gear sets. I torque up the pinion nut...slowly... and once I like it I throw my indicator inside for "in/out" freeplay....freeplay means...

    new short block on the way

    I'd head to a salvage yard if ones close by, plenty of 5 liters around. Most the OEM bolts have the intergral washers, which work the best...you can clean/paint if you like. You have a complete timing/waterpump set... intake set, VC's ?? Your correct...the little things kill you. I sold my...
