    is it really this slow?

    The regulator is black and there is one line hooked up and another hole on top next to it. What is the tube that goes from the valve cover to the throttle body, mine doesnt have it? I will be changing the fuel filter this weekend.

    is it really this slow?

    So I went and drove it again and noticed that it does feel like it is taking off in second. It barely spun the tires and slowly got up to 3k rpm's and then took off. On the way home was going maybe 20mph(not sure cause speedo is messed up) floored it and the car downshifted twice and threw me...

    is it really this slow?

    The transmission is having its own problems. I know swapping trans wont fix the fuel problem. The transmission has trouble downshifting when I slow down and makes a loud clunk noise when it goes into o/d. Also the trans makes the car shake when coming up to a stop. I feel like i got in over my...

    is it really this slow?

    If I were to get the transmission that's in it rebuilt how much do you guys think that should run me. My plans for the car is a dd with some track time. When i am driving it and the car downshifts when i floor it the car feels like it has a ton of power but sometimes hesitates around 3k rpm. I...

    I dont know how old the filter is I haven't changed it since I got the car and I don't know when the previous owner changed it. As soon as I get paid I will change it. Is it difficult to change?

    is it really this slow?

    Since the tranny is going south I think I will save up and do a 5 speed swap. Parts wise how much should it cost. is it something that can be done in a driveway

    is it really this slow?

    I just changed the plugs maybe about 2 weeks ago . One of them were cracked, as far as the timing my stepdad set that for me and he said it was advanced too much causing the motor to ping. now it is set at 14 degrees. I looked on the heads and can't find any numbers or logos. as for the...

    is it really this slow?

    When I raced it I had to leave the shifter in drive because the previous owner put the wrong b and m hammer shifter and it is about to break, so I have no idea what gear it was leaving in. The car feels struggles to get to 3000rpms then takes off and throws me back really hard in the seat

    is it really this slow?

    forgot to mention it has aftermarket heads not sure what kind though. I am going by what he told me, I am new to v8 engines but to me it doesnt sound like a normal 302, i know it sounds crazy . If it isnt a 331 what should it be running as a 302

    is it really this slow?

    I took my mustang to the track and was very dissapointed. First run was 16.9 and after adjusting timing finally ran a 15.4 at 91mph. From what the previous owner told me it should be running quicker. he said in his words the motor is out of a 94 gt and it is now a 331. It has trick flow street...
