    hydraulic roller lifter ?

    Stock lifters are best. If the heads are the same and your old block wasn't decked, which it probably wasn't, the pushrods should be the same. Heck, even if the block was decked the pushrods would probably still fit.

    stock air box, stay or go???

    I think a cold air kit is worth the money. Putting the maf and air cleaner in the fender well does an excellent job of cooling the intake aircharge. Powerpipes are really good but I cringe when I think of how much they cost.

    Quadshock/tire problem not normal question

    No matter what control arms you get- the rear will sway from side to side a bit. The only real cure is a panhard bar. The lateral movement of the axle is an old 5.0 problem/trait. You would not belive the difference a a panhard bar would make.

    What are some good, inexpensive rear control arms?

    I can't exactly argue with that except that the forgivness in the rubber is slop in the suspension and can make a car a lot less predictable as it won't always act the same way. None the less I will read the article. If rubber were better I would imagine that Steeda, Saleen, MM, Griggs, D&D...

    Best head for bottom end

    I'm not sure of the valve size but the ports are dinky. They make a ton of bottom end. If the deal you're getting on the edelbrocks is that good, what are you waiting for? There is nothing wrong with those. For a nearly stock set up I would stick with a nearly stock head. I have never tried...

    Best head for bottom end

    The TW's have a slightly larger port and a bigger intake valve. Raw power is not what we are looking for in this situation. The AFR would make more lowend tq with a stock cam. The design of the TW's chamber is a lot more effient and from experience I have found the TW's to work a lot...

    Wiring hiding w/gauges.. electrical or mechanical?

    The electrical gauges actually have more exposed junk that goes with them. They have sending units and more wiring. The mechanical gauges only have 1 line that goes out to the engine bay and 2 or three wires that are under the dash. The electric gauges have an awkward sending unit and at...

    Best head for bottom end

    If you wish to retain bottom end the best thing that you can do is go with a head that has a smaller valve. The TFS and AFR's are absolutely out of the question. You can pick up a set of aluminum GT40y's very cheap. They are a direct bolt on- you don't need to change anything. The GT40p's are...

    What are some good, inexpensive rear control arms?

    The D&D arms are very good. They have delrin bushings that are much better and last longer than polys. Steve, you may have to clarify a little. I don't see how a rubber bushing is better than a poly...is that a typo? The rubber causes deflection and suspension bind much worse than...

    At what point do you need to consider a good tune?

    I think a lot of people have the wrong idea about custom tunes. Most of you guys have addressed the best reason- drivability. Alot of people think they are going to pick up 30-40hp with a tune and if a car is already running properly that's not going to happen. A really hard running car could...

    Identifying injector sizes

    I made a deal with the guy and he cashed me out. I think he knew. I'm going to pull them out anyway. I bought FMS 42's. Thanks guys!

    Identifying injector sizes

    I know what color coincides with each typically sized injector. However, I am faced with an unusual situation. I recently bought another Fox body coupe. The injectors have a light blue band which immediately lead me to believe that they were 24's. Any possibility that they are 42's? Does...

    Drag Radial Fitment

    The 255's should fit with room to spare.

    Engine swap question

    The T45 is 3/4 of an inch longer in the SN95. If I read what you posted correctly you have it backwards. I'm not sure how to fix that without changing the input shaft. Also, the pulleys and everything are different.

    Will cobra brakes fit in my wheels?

    The Cobra brakes are the same all the way to 96 if my memory serves me right. Those cars came with a 17" wheel from the factory.

    How hard is it to swap to a 4V motor?

    The engine will bolt in but it's definitely not a direct swap and tune.

    BBK CC Plates?

    There's not a huge difference in designs. They all work well but I say "no way" to BBK's and Mac's because they are made of aluminum. Steeda, MM, or D&D's are made of steel. That's your best bet.
