    Bassani vs Flowmaster

    Spintechs have an interesting sound...you really gotta get yourself accustomed to them. They initially sound AWESOME, imo. Although the strange thing is, either something is wrong with my exhaust, or the spintechs seriously broke in... Because they sounded AWESOME and like a TOTALLY...

    Cam selection?

    The E isn't a bad cam. It's definitely streetable, but still fairly radical for a little 302.. I'm running it right now and it's a nice cam. The powerband is pretty smooth and predictable. It's just old school tech....ie single pattern. I prefer a dual pattern...but that's a tad hard to...

    Knock on start up..........

    It ALL depends on how fast you want to go. I have a new shortblock 302, with cam, heads, intake, etc...but it's a stock shortblock. Only difference is it doesnrt have the old factory forged pistons, it has new hypereutetics. If you wanna go real fast, spend some extra cash on pistons and...

    300 horse?

    I agree there, I'm still running stock 19's on mine and I'm doing ok. 36 is more suited to supercharging IMO. I wouldnt really go bigger than 24 on a streetable N/A motor

    BBK SSI intake

    I gotta admit...like everyone else says..that is a SEXY intake. I love it, I'd take it EASILY over my Cobra. But then, my Cobra is ugly and as far as flow numbers, is outdated and SUCKS! :nonono:

    Knock on start up..........

    I would.... Sounds its knocking under no oil pressure, til it builds up. We see that at work every few weeks or so...and its pretty much always on an old, tired, high mileage motor in need of a rebuild. A motor in good condition will just make valvetrain noise at zero pressure, if that even...

    300 horse?

    Nice mod list, but I dont think 300 horses with stock cam and heads... Until that nitrous....lol. You seriously never know though. My old motor had 155,000 miles, ran 14.5 at 95 with FULL exhaust, smog pump eliminated, electric fan, Cobra intake...... It was slow for what it had but it...

    EGR on Performer RPM heads?

    Well, the computer hookup and assembly CONTROLS the EGR valve's opening and closing...right? So...how about if I just remove the entire sensor hookup backing plate off the valve....right? Because it's removeable and wont cause a vacuum leak.......right? :D Those arent sarcastic btw, those...

    EGR on Performer RPM heads?

    Well I disconnected it this evening and the car runs SO much better. It used to stumble on its face when I revved it...now it revs clean and normal. Instead of "vrmm VRRRRRMMM....it's "VRRRRMMMMMM". So should I reconnect the computer hookup, but leave the vacuum line off, or what? It...

    Cold engine operating problems

    When the car is cold, the motor will idle very eratically for a minute if I put it in gear to soon or change the throttle input around a lot... It basically wants to be left alone to warm up.. Also, if I'm on the gas a little bit when it's still cold, and suddenly back off the gas, it will...

    EGR on Performer RPM heads?

    The specs on my Edel. Performer RPM heads say they are non-EGR heads...however I still have my EGR system connected and it SEEMS to be operating. At least when I disconnect the wiring connector to the EGR valve, the car feels noticeably rougher on throttle changes. I've been thinking about...

    Injectors/MAF Calibration

    Well Im REALLY wanting the dyno tune cause...I'm very NOT stock, and running a VERY stock prom chip. But thanks for the tip man. Yeah from what I've seen, I'm extremely disappointed with this Granatelli unit. Finish quality is rather sloppy.... The price was ungodly.. Its entirely too...

    Injectors/MAF Calibration

    So what you're saying is...if I go to a good shop and get a dyno tune, they can do it there most likely? Sweet...cause this MAF cost almost $300 and I'd hate to have to buy another one, although I'd never buy one like this again. Total POS. Maybe cause its designed for a stock intake I...

    Injectors/MAF Calibration

    I've always understood that all MAF's were calibrated to injector size. So that if you want to swap your fuel injectors, you also have to swap your MAF. I just heard on another board, someone said that all Ford MAF's are calibrated the same...and that the injector calibration is in the...

    Cheap ways for more power

    Well it's hard for me to believe that I haven't passed 6,000 rpms already, especially with my 4.10 gears.... I've never felt any kind of rev limiter so far...it just keeps pulling and pulling... :shrug: Now here's what I'm curious about. I've heard in the past that adding timing adds...

    Cheap ways for more power

    Sorry man, that's not gonna fly.. Remember..bad trans. Adding that much horsepower would make it blow on the dyno....and I think they'd be pretty mad if I ended up shooting tranny fluid all over their nice pretty dyno.. :lol:

    Cheap ways for more power

    Ok guys...this August, I'm putting the car up on a chassis dyno. Thing is, I need a new transmission...always have, still do..it's robbing serious power. I'm running 13.7's at 104 mph with this tranny....and I'm looking to put out some decent dyno numbers, to give me an idea of what to expect...
