    Stuck PCV Screen...Any Ideas?

    Count me as another vote for the drywall screw method. When I changed mine it was really stuck in there, I tried the needlenoose pliers method as well as a few others that were mentioned with no success. Two tries with a screw and the sucker was out. :nice:

    Well I had no idea I could get so confused by a single sentence. Valve events? Lobe centers? Could you care to elaborate on this stuff?

    Where to buy pistons?

    I'd call him but I work every day from 8am-6pm (usually later).. Are they very prompt at responding to emails? I need to do something very soon. I did find a set of keith black pistons in my jegs catalog that produce a 9.9:1 CR, but I'm wondering if that is too high. ie. will I have to run 93...

    Where to buy pistons?

    I'm working on my engine buildup but I need to get pistons bought so the machine shop can match the cylinder bores to the pistons.. problem is, I don't know where to get the pistons? I want to get about 9.5:1 CR using the stock heads (64cc chamber) and stock stroke. Help!

    Budget rebuild, what to do?

    I'm rebuilding my 5.0 and looking to spend around $1000 tops. What's the best route to go? I have to bore the block so new pistons with a higher compression ratio are a distinct possibility, but will re-use the stock crank/rods. What's the best way to go in this rebuild to get the power up...

    naturally aspirated with blow through

    It'll probably run like crap with non-matching MAF meter and injectors.

    I could be wrong, but 30lb injectors seem like a bit much for your combo..

    rebuild prices?

    I just picked up a 5.0 longblock that I'm going to rebuild and put into my car. Pulled the heads and the cylinder walls look fine, so I'm wondering what it costs to just put in new rings/bearings and have the crank turned? Planning on re-using the stock rods/pistons. Thanks

    Stang seats in Ranger

    I have an '84 Ranger that I put a set of stock fox buckets in. I'm not sure how the bench seat is in a '90, but I had to steal the seat tracks from Ranger bucket seats to make the stang seats work. I also had to drill holes for the inner seat bolts. Not terrible by any means, but it took a...

    Driver's front tire rub?

    Lately my '90 Coupe has developed a noticable rub whenever turning the steering wheel about 1/4 turn clockwise (tire rubs on the front fiberglass fender extension). What could be causing this? The car doesn't sit excessively low like it has a broken spring or worn strut, but it acts like it's...

    Fiberglass hoods....Pins yes or no?

    Yet another vote for hood pins here.. My car had the fiberglass hood when I got it, but I didn't like how it moved around when I drove the car. I didn't want to be the victim of another flying hood so I opted for a set of $15 hood pins when I got my car repainted.

    Cobra motor swap?

    Yeah, it's just the engine.. I hadn't thought about buying a 24lb-hr MAF sensor, but I still think after buying that it would be cheaper than trying to build up my base 5.0 to that kind of horsepower. Worst case scenario, wouldn't I be able to use my 19lb-hr injectors and MAF sensor with the...
