    Who knows about rod/piston/crank specs?

    I can almost guarantee that you can't use the stroker pistons with your stock length rods. Those stroker pistons almost certainly have a different compression height than stock. What were the pistons for? You might get lucky if they were for a 302 based stroker or something. But that...

    installed new TB

    Put your ground to the black/white wire. Then test the other 2. One should be at around 5 volts, the other won't be. The TPS volts (the one that isn't 5 volts) should be at about 1 volt with the throttle closed, but the specific voltage doesn't actually matter. The comptuer checks the...

    car is running lean...

    Right I don't understand what you're trying to get at here. If the system doesn't output lean code failures when the system goes lean then installing 24# injectors wouldn't be a problem? Of course, SD, MAF, or otherwise, almost every fuel injection method out there assumes a certain...

    3G Alternator Upgrade

    Add a $30 used junkyard alt as a spare, and you don't even need the taxi. May or may not be worth the $30 depending on how nice your family is :D

    89 overheating

    It's normal for engine temp to rise once you park the car, but no so much for it to flood spill over the overflow. That kind of expansion almost has to be air. I would start with a pressure test of your cooling system. Get it up to 15 pounds. It should hold the pressure pretty much all...

    car is running lean...

    Nothing, and it has nothing to do with the readings at the MAP sensor. The Speed Density fuel injection system is based on an assumption of the volumetric efficiency of the engine. When you modify the engine from stock, you're changing it's volumetic efficiency, however the computer cannot...

    SN95 steering wheel on Fox tilt column

    Do the sliding contacts pivot with the wheel? I'm trying to remember but for the life of me I can't. If not, you should be golden. It may be a nusance if they do.

    Can hydroboost be used on a 5.0 engine?

    Yeah I would just go ahead and set it up now. I don't think figuring how to adapt the line to the fox rack will be much of a problem, if you need to adapt it at all.

    Can hydroboost be used on a 5.0 engine?

    Because the v6 uses the same pump as the 93. That means the v6 line from the pump to the booster will work with your fox pump. So really the only thing you have left to figure out, is will the pressure line from the booster to the fox rack fit the fox rack, assumig you're not going with an...

    Can hydroboost be used on a 5.0 engine?

    The 1999 v6, that can come with or without hydroboost, uses the same P/S pump as the 1993 5.0.

    Can hydroboost be used on a 5.0 engine?

    Well the 2000 mustang v8 power steering pump interchanges with the 1996 mustang v8 power steering pump according to car-part's interchange. The 2000 has hydroboost and the 1996 does not. I know I can run a 1996 power steering rack in a fox with a fox 5.0 P/S pump. So if a fox 5.0 pump can...

    Can hydroboost be used on a 5.0 engine?

    I don't see why not. I can use a 1996 power steering rack on a fox. I don't think it's different for 1999. 1999's could come with hydroboost and I'm pretty sure they could come with ABS. What I really don't know is if the difference between the 1999s that had vacuum boost or hydroboost was...

    HELP CODE 92, how to test egr circuit?

    Test out your new EVR because new doesn't always mean good. When you apply vacuum to the EGR can you see it move? If it has a punctured diaphram it won't move under vacuum and you'll need to replace the EGR valve. If it does move and the motor doesn't die or drop in RPMs, you have...

    A/C Bracket Install

    There's no HP increase for ditching the A/C, it freewheels unless it's on, and it turns off at WOT, so you can actually have your A/C on at the drag strip and you're not going to go any slower down the quarter. But for a race car, you can shed a lot of weight by getting rid of the A/C.

    HELP CODE 92, how to test egr circuit?

    Test your EVR. It's on the passenger side Shock tower. It is the larger of the 3 items on the back side of the shock tower, usually above the other two. It is a 2 wire hookup, with 2 vaccum lines also. Like JR stated above, if you do a koeo test, while having a test light hooked up to...

    Baro sensor questions

    I didn't think so. So, without the MAF hooked up, what voltage should I be getting on pin 9 and 50 of the ecu?

    Choosing an Intake???

    Don't get an F cam. An E cam would be better but letter cams are really outdated, you can get a better off the shelf cam from someone like crane, comp cams, etc. Call one of them up and run what they recommend, if you really want a new cam. For the intake, I agree to use an explorer. It...
