    Finished H/C/I, having big problems. Take a look.

    I don't see a heat problem with it holding 200 with a 195 stat. What happens with the temp when your foot gets heavy? What temp gauge do you have?

    Fox 87-93 Cobra Questions

    The Cobras were rated at 240, but the 93 GT/LX 5.0 were rated at 215 due to Ford changing the way they rate the power. The 215/240 was with the accessories being driven.

    Whats the deal...my car revs straight to 6250!!

    Let's just say, if any of my cars DIDN'T hit the rev limiter when I floored it I would soon be tearing into it, to see what was broke! Factory stangs give out around 5300-5500, taking it much past that will only slow you down.

    change wires or coil?

    If your wires are OK now then go with the coil.....but, unless something is broke, you wont gain any performance.

    Money I have, what should i get next?

    Brake kits wouldn't come with the axles, only the things needed to get the kit to work on your car(order 5 lug if you have 5 lug currently). You'd have to get SN-95 style spindles up front as well as axles. I have the A-sedan(12"all the way around) and they work MUCH better than stock, I plan...

    aftermarket rockers

    I'd suggest some 1.72, it will get the most lift out of the stock cam. And you'll like the SD till your mods go beyond it's ability to run correctly/make the most power.

    120K mustang boosted=shrapnel?

    If you run moderate boost and have it tuned correctly you shouldn't have any troubles. I suggest the same as above, do a compression check, all cylinders should be within 10% of one another.......recheck the lowest cylinder after pouring about a capfull of oil in the cylinder, if the pressure...

    Nitrous or Super charger?

    You are overlooking a big thing, when it comes time to refill. You can refill your bottle 25 times to make up the extra cost of the blower(1000 difference,$40a fill). Nitrous is a bit harder to tune than a blower due to its all or nothing nature. In your case I would suggest the blower, with...

    the oddest thing...

    The stock intake is your bottleneck here, upgrade this and you'll be 300+FWHP easy.

    Question about intake manifold install.

    I got new ones, purely for aesthetics though. Do as stated above and you'll be fine.

    Mustang still handles like an Ox Cart after many upgrades, why?

    You'd notice a big difference with a panhard bar, MM makes one that fits with full exhuast. Coil overs would help as well. The steering slop is due to the rack, a solid steering shaft may help a tad, but there will still be play. Flaming river makes a power steering rack that is supposed to...

    Tranny, then suspension, then sticky tires, in that order.

    RUnning Rich

    Clean your MAS and replace plugs/cap/rotor/wires if they have not been changed. Check your fuel pressure if you have an adjustable regulator.

    vortech s-trim

    it takes about 17 psi to double the output of the motor at the flywheel. With that in mind the 225 would be 357@flywheel with 10 psi, 370 with 11. You must also keep in mind that this is NOT what the motor is actually generating since it takes power to turn the blower(which is the reason for...

    need a combo

    You wont need much at all to get a TT setup into the 12s, a stock setup can do that. As long as you keep the boost down, the stock block will be OK, just stay far away from detonation! But AFR 165/185s, Edelbrock/Holley intakes and a custom cam would be better than the "TFS head" setup...

    Best compression for street/strip car?

    Higher compression does not ruin the chance at a boost, just not as much of it. I'm seeing more and more cars run higher compression (11:1) with ~18psi instead of 9:1 with 24+psi. This has the advantage of having a better bottom end, and lets you run less boost(which is more efficient due to the...

    Fan keeps rubbing Fan shroud

    Your motor/tranny mounts sound like they need to be checked out.

    help me decide which to build

    You have to ask yourself if the ~50 extra ponies is worth the 500~1000 bux that it takes to get all of the stuff to make the swap.
