    FORD RACING LONGBLOCKS

    I'm running a GT-40 5.0 long block thats been switched out Performer heads, intake, E-303, roller rockers and a Powerdyne supercharger (6psi). 74,000 miles and still going. Although I don't quite have the faith in it I used to; I'll probably drop in a DSS shortblock sometime in the next year.

    Vacuum and surging idle

    I did notice my throttle plate sticking closed a bit when using the linkage at the TB to bring up the revs. I'm going to installed a Idle Adjustment Spacer from Ford then the throttle plate can stay closed at idle. I will clean it tonight before adding the spacer next week. Thanks for the...

    Vacuum and surging idle

    I checked both leads at the IAC with a test light. One is 'hot', the second only provides ground when the car is running. Is there a way to tell if the IAC motor is working correctly? Also, I ran codes. CODE: 11 (KOEO) - System Pass Engine: 5.0L Year: 86-93 Description: System Passes...

    Vacuum and surging idle

    My idle is surging and I've cleaned everything; IAC, MAF, and verified TPS voltage at .98v. I haven't checked my timing or fuel pressure but last time it was done I set it to 37psi and 10 degrees. Now... if I unplug a vacuum line anywhere in the system the idle smooths out. What the heII does...

    Squealing at idle, releasing pressure when it shuts down, wtf?

    I'll second that suggestion. I had plugged my breather tube that feeds to the intake stream because I was changing around my plumbing MAF setup. Exact same symptoms.

    CA smog and high performance (like oil and water)

    Mine passed with my current list of mods and gutted cats. The first shop refused to test it because of all the aftermarket parts but a local Mustang shop referred me to a test only station that deals mainly with Mustangs.

    Powerdyne BD-11A repair

    The first bearing and washer need to come off to put the belt on. The first rebuild I had to get a 3 jaw puller and grind the jaws until they were narrow enough to get underneath the bearing. This tore the washer underneath. I didn't bother to replace the other bearings. This time I'm getting...

    4 cylinder to 5.0 swap legal in CA???

    Can a 5.0 be swapped into a 2.3 four banger for street use and still pass smog in California? Has anyone here done this? Edit: Now that I think about it, I'm don't think it would get past the visual inspection. Maybe if I painted 2.3L on the intake.

    Subframe connectors......its time,take the poll!!!!!

    How does that work out with putting the interior back in? I can see potential fitment issues with the carpet. Would you say this is a track car friendly mod?

    Subframe connectors......its time,take the poll!!!!!

    Uhh, yeah... 550hp through 1st gear doesn't always hook up so good. :D Glad to hear you can feel a difference. I think we just jacked the thread... Back to subframes.

    Subframe connectors......its time,take the poll!!!!!

    This is the very true. Just about any subframe connector will make a great improvement to any vehicle. Another important thing to consider is future modification issues that may arise from going with a particular design. If you're going to add mini-tubs later the Competition Engineering set...

    Do I have SN95 spindles?

    Okay, so I pulled my wheel off and the studs are pressed into the rotors with the tall metal dust caps. What kind of options do I have for an affordable 13" front kit using these spindles?

    Subframe connectors......its time,take the poll!!!!!

    Okay, I'm two days late to the discussion but maybe I can add a bit of enlightenment. Many people do not understand the significance of the added center support, 'X', brace. Imagine a sheet of paper; very flimsy in all directions. Tape a straw to each of the four edges to simulate a...

    Do I have SN95 spindles?

    I've found pictures of the SN95 spindle. Can anyone post a picture of a Fox spindle for comparison?

    Do I have SN95 spindles?

    My car was converted to 5-lug discs all the way around before I bought it. Is the 94-95 spindle the only way to convert to a 5-lug disc? I'm looking into going with a 13" Cobra set up but I'm not sure if I need to start looking for a set of spindle too. Is there an easy way to tell the...
