    $2,500 to spend on mods / supercharger ?

    The MAF needs to be bigger then the stock 55mm one. Someone said 75mm TB so 75 or 77mm MAF calibrated for whatever injector size you choose should be fine. It's only as big as the smallest hole. - about $100-$150.

    Rattling noise

    Well I figured it out today, unfortunatly. I had to move it from where it was at and when it started, poof, white smoke. So head gasket/head. I think it has to do with the alt. bracket falling off as it seems it might be cyl #1. Going to be tearing it apart soon, hopefully gasket cause I...

    Rattling noise

    yeah the fuel pump would be cool but the rattling sounds like there's a bunch of ball bearings in the motor. At first I thought it was loose exhaust bolts. It comes from the pass side back of the engine.

    Join the club. My car has broken down(undrivable) in some way every week the past 4 weeks.

    Rattling noise

    When I took it for a drive, it was very hessitant when i floored it. A couple of quick jerks forward. Then away it went like always but slower and then the rattling. By ignition cap you mean the top of the distributor?

    Rattling noise

    And now it doesn't start. I let it sit all day but I needed to move it. I cranks forever but not start. There's spark and fuel that I know.

    Rattling noise

    I would hoppe its not the piston rings as they're new about 1000miles ago. Another thing I found when messing with it is the smoke coming from the oil fill cap smells like exhaust.

    cost to dump

    Ah, I figured the cats would be going as well. That's what I did anyways.

    Rattling noise

    yeah i was already checking for loose bolts but couldn't find any. It's more than that anyways, the car ust isn't running right. Took it for a spin and its a total dog. If i let it idle for 10mins it will die. Also the coolant doesn't heat up very fast at all however the return line is...

    cost to dump

    Yeah and if you find a shop to do it you'd be lucky. It's kinda illegal to take emissions stuff off of peoples cars. Oh and judging by your name, you're not gonna want to do that. Just guessing you'd fail emissions testing there in cali.

    Rattling noise

    Seriously, if anyone knows what to check for tomarrow morning please inform me. I don't want to just start ripping it apart. As far as the code, the only code it gives after the immediate code is the soft egr code i've always had for no egr.

    Oil weight question

    Just a heavier oil. That's what I run right now. If you have realy cold winters you might consider a lighter oil in the winter.

    Posi, good or bad?

    Posi is a GM thing but as was said above it's not done with clutches as traclok is. GM also has a traclok like thing that is not called posi.

    94/95 5.0 in fox? Pros and cons

    if you just want to drop it in keep all the wiring that comes with the 95 , drop the motor in and use the 95 comuter. Using an earlier model computer will require pin relocation. Hood clearance will be more than plenty as the 95 intake is lower than the 86-93. If you do the direct swap...

    emissions chk in IA?

    yes, in places where there is not testing no cats would be a reason for them to either give you another ticket or search your cars for drugs(?) if they can't find any other reason i think. Not like many officers are going to get down on their hands and knees and check under your car to make...

    94/95 5.0 in fox? Pros and cons

    Actually he didn't say he was getting an auto. I just assumed that for some reason. :shrug: Don't know why. If it is an auto that he's getting it will be an AODE.

    nos intallation question.

    Do you mean the Throttle Position Sensor? If you look at your TB on the opposite side of where the gas pedal's cables connect to the TB is where the TPS is.
