    Who's paying over 60K?

    $5K over invoice I guy at work just bought one for $5K over invoice here in Michigan (Detroit metro area). I agree with others that with a lot of 2008's coming that the prices will be at MSRP soon, and in a year probably a little below. I think another factor that will take the curent luster...

    Which Carburetor?

    750 Holley DP Holley 750 DP with mechanical secondaries. That cam will use it. 10:1 with pistons is no problem, or milling the heads, or a thinner head gasket.

    Need advice! 351C fouls plugs....

    Darn Holleys!! The engine was running great and the plugs were cleaning off, BUT NO, I couldn't leave well enough alone and had to jet the carb back up to the original 72's and change the power valve to a 4.5. In the process I must have crushed the PV gasket or got some debris in the float bowl...

    Need advice! 351C fouls plugs....

    Some adjustments... My idle screws were improperly adjusted. they were about 1 3/4's turns out in front and about 1 1/2 in back. Wilson carbs recommended 1/2 to 1 turn. When I got done adjusting them they were all about 3/4's of a turn and the idle speed increased. I also reduced the primary...

    Need advice! 351C fouls plugs....

    The problem is that my engine seems to foul plugs and I am running out of ideas. I have a 950 Holley HP and I think it might be too big for my application. With a new set of plugs the engine runs great, but within 1/2 an hour it begins to lose performance and chug. I was running Motorcraft ASF...

    D.Hearne is right on the GT-40's...... Sell the GT-40's for $400-$500 and buy a set of AFR 185's, you won't be disappointed.

    How many s197 GT's built since inception?

    Was just wondering if anyone knew how many of the GT's with the 3 valve 4.6's had been built since 2005. I bet probably 1 out of 3 are v8's and the rest are the v6 models. Just curious.

    Dyno results Underdrive pulleys

    I've read, and been told, that 80%+ of all the RWHP gains from U/D pulleys comes from the lighter weight of the after-market aluminum pullies versus the steel OEM pullies. Lower weight of the recipricating assembly always frees uo horsepower. It therefore might make sense to run stock aluminum...

    4.6 3v and 5.4 3v heads the same?

    The dealership that I spoke with said that the 5.4 3v heads have a different part number than the 4.6 mustang heads, though he could not confirm that the heads were different in any way. He speculated that they must be with the different part numbers but could not confirm it. :shrug:
