    Manifol??????

    Just put the TFS street and a FR 65mm TB on three weeks ago. Lost no bottom end that I can tell and picked up a whole bunch of top. I love it, it is one big dude though. I had to take off strut tower brace and bend A/C line to get on. I used studs for the end instead of the bolts. it made it...

    Ive got them on E7s and no problem. Can't speak for GT40 heads though. E7 use 2 different installed heights for intake and exhaust.If you do use them just make sure you don't mix up the keepers

    gear swap

    Yeah I just put my 3.73s in about 4 months ago. All my bearings checked good so I just reused them. I bought a kit that had pinionshims, side shims, seal and rear gasket from year one was only like $28. I also used solid spacer for my pinion but I do mine myself. It take a little fiddling to...

    whats the best 65 or 70

    I just put on a TFS street intake and FR 65m TB. Didn't lose any bottom and gained a whole lotta top. 70mm may be too much unless you plan on a power adder later

    AOD driving me mad....

    Yeah if something is coming apart it will circulate. Some will be stoped by the filter some wont. The tv valve adds pressure to the system, the higher pressure over comes the spring pressure in the valves. Thats why when at full throttle it shfts later, So if the valve is sticking the...

    AOD driving me mad....

    Sounds like to TV cable or valve is sticking. Disconnect the cable from the TB and see if it moves freely, if it does the TVavle is prob sticking in the valve body. Ive got my cable adj a little tight and it hangs on downshifting out of OD and the lockup clutch is still engaged. Its just like...

    blocking EGR valve vacuum off? bad? why? opinions?

    egr Hey staticc, Don hit it right. The emission system is designed to work all together. However here in FL where there is no emission check you can probably get away with it. On mine I have the crossover blocked at the heads so I have no egr on mine. Ive disconnect all the vacuum hoses and...

    whats the easiest/quickest??

    Hey Bart, if you can get the car up high enough then pulling the trans would be quicker. Make sure to put a new front pump seal on the trans when its out. Also you said that youve had the engine out, but if the the rear seal isn't that new, now would be a good time to change it. Bill

    fuel pressure guage?

    fp gauge If you don't have a adjustable reg then there isno need to have one on the car. Its a good good idea to check your pressure at least with a hand held gauge to make sure your pump and reg are up to specs

    Quick Question on Roller Rockers, Pedestal or Stud?? What do I need?

    I do believe those use te standard 5.0 rocker which would be the pedestal. The stock length pushrods should be close. You always need to check. When you get the rockers on you need to turn the engine over by hand and watch how the roller goes across the valve stem. If it starts at the edge...
