    Why am i....?? gear related

    Here we go RPM= 87.42 * 3.23 *336 = 94875.1776 / 21" (guess) = 4517rpms when I crossed the line in 3rd (1:1)... Fill it in and see what RPM you should have. We'll then go from there.

    Power loss in lower RPMS

    MAF is located upstream of the throttle body on top of the mass air flow housing. I wish mine were held in by philips. (stupid star w/ dot in the middle)

    Why am i....?? gear related

    Yeah something doesn't sound right... Stock tack??? Look for a rpm's @ mph w/ X gear ratio calculator on the net. That should tell you how off you are. With my crapy time on the left i barely needed 3rd (1:1)

    anyone build motors? i need to beat a honda.

    Guy, guys guys, he's not bsing. He's talking the 1/8th. lol. Or the bike above. But if your friends have hondas in the 10's then they have serious cash. So if you want to play you have to pay. Go spend 20k (about 1/2 what they paid) on a motor and you'll beat em.

    Computer wiring fun!!

    I fabbed my own wiring harness and when I got it all done, i set it in place on top of everything to make sure everything would fit right and I had all the connectors in the right spot. This way if anything doesn't fit like it should you can fix it w/o having to take it off again. Oh and I...

    What next?

    If you do a stroker, you will need the h/c/i to compliment it for the most gains, as said above the stroker kit will net you some good hp, but the h/c/i on top is what will make the real power. I would do the h/c/i because just the stroker wont get you 350hp. H/C/I is gonna cost a bit so is a...

    Computer wiring fun!!

    The EEC Power Relay should be over by your battery. That's where it was on my 86 at least. There are other relays right next to where the wiring goes through the firewall, could it be one of those? That diagram shows it should be inside the car, but it also shows the fuel pump realy in the...

    yes just in the upper, I'm actualy using a 98 explorer lower and a 95 cobra upper because it ended up being cheaper that way.

    Well he also could have ment his horse, which happened to be a mustang, which also would have beaten the j.a.p. crap. (still will) :D But on the note of the plane, I would love to get a chance to fly a p51d. Those things are bad ass.
