    Calling all techies, building a street h/c/i combo

    Im still considering nitrous quite seriously, I mean there was a used zex kit that sold in my area for $450, it included the wet kit (with 75-125 jets), a purge kit and a bottle heater. All I would need to make it super safe would be a window switch, and maybe some colder plugs (i still dont...

    Calling all techies, building a street h/c/i combo

    great replies guys, really insightful... but what else could I expect from the best :nice: Grady, I understand exactly what you were trying to get at with that post.. it is disheartening to loose track of funds in pursuit of power.. then end up with something that doesnt live up to your...

    aluminum vs iron, heads for a street combo

    My thoughts exactly mr. Moss ;) Im looking for 250-280 rwhp from the explorer setup and my HO cam with 1.7s. Aside from peak power, I think this setup will be fun on the street, have streetable manners (two things im looking for) and not kill on gas like a lopey cam combo would. Later down the...

    aluminum vs iron, heads for a street combo

    for a mild street combo, would it be worth stepping up and getting into aluminum heads? I planned to use gt40ps, Im looking for torquey, reliable power and good street manners/ decent mpg for a semi daily driver. I was thinking gt40ps, explorer intakes, stock HO cam with 1.7s. People have told...

    Calling all techies, building a street h/c/i combo

    In the new year I want to take the plunge and do some power mods. Ive decided on a explorer setup (upper and lower intake with gt40p heads, stock HO cam maybe with some 1.7s) Ive done my research, but theres a few things I still have to pick your guys' brains about. Thanks in advance for the...

    squeaky ball joints fix?!

    So, my ball joint(s) are starting to squeak, and its been getting really annoying.. really makes the car sound like a junker. My dads buddy has a shop, so I asked him if they could put the car up on the lift and grease up the ball joints a bit and hopefully relieve the squeaking. I remember...

    My '69 Convertible was Overhauled

    hey dave, sorry to bring up an old thread, but damn, they did an awesome job on this car! (I just watched the episode today, suprisingly I havent seen it yet.. im a huge fan of the show) I love everything about it, it just flows so great. I love the black, and the red really sets the car off...

    whats your favourite stang magazine?

    trust me, id want parts over the mag, but I have a problem telling them "oh sure, just get me a trickflow h/c/i kit.. oh, and how about a tune to go with it" ;) mags are cheap and cool to read when you have some time on your hands

    whats your favourite stang magazine?

    hey guys, my relatives are wondering what Id like for christmas, and I was thinking a subscription to a mustang magazine would be cool. My question is, if you could only have one mag subscription, which one would it be?

    Are these realistic goals?

    Ive heard good things about FTI, and Id imagine that combined with the tw heads (which are very good) and a ported cobra should definately get you 300 rwhp. The only thing that may rob you is the AODE. Also, the vert has nothing to do with power output EDIT: the vert weight will affect your...

    300 rwhp 4.6

    Hey guys, Im just wandering over here from the 94-95 5.0 section to learn more about "that other mustang V8" ;) I was curious what the most popular way to get to 300 rwhp with the 4.6 is, and what it usually costs. Let's assume that we are talking about 99+ or PI swapped 96-98 2 valves. With...

    has anyone raced a stock gsr?

    All nitrous kits operate at full throttle (except in fast n the furious) the reason for this is because the nitrous kit is jetted for wide open throttle operation. Also, the blades of the throttle body at part throttle would interfere with the flow, possibly causing pooling and a nitrous...

    My exhaust journey...

    So which setup did you like the most.. like.. which one kind of gave you the shivers because it sounded so damn good ;) I have flowmasters with the stock H (i know i know..) and Im contemplating going an offroad pipe.

    crate engine questions

    some of the numbers on Grady's little chart there really get me interested in that gt40p/explorer intake/OEM cam with 1.7's combo Ive been contemplating for awhile ;) 260-270ish rwhp is nothing to sneeze at for the couple hundred bucks spent. Probably will net you better fuel economy too once...

    some pretty sweet vids there ;) I like to do the occasional 5-10 second little burnout on my street tires, maybe once every couple of weeks. Is this going to kill them?

    intake plenum?

    you would loose low end due to the decreased runner length. The reason the 5.0 plenum is shaped the way it is with the long runners is so that it generates air velocity = good low end torque (well, this is at least how I understood it) If you run a setup like the one seen in that picture, the...
