    Holy Wheelgap Batman!

    Perhaps not stock rotating assembly; but blocks sure. I've never owned a car before this mustang that had such an expensive and pathetic shortcoming for making power..esp for something that's supposed to be a 'muscle car' or whatever you'd like to brand it. Then we have that wonderful T5 to...

    Holy Wheelgap Batman!

    :) Meh, lack of a decent block for reasonable $ has disgusted me enough to stop dumping copious coin into this and pick up something thats a more capable and fun to drive platform in all aspects. Sentimental value might tell otherwise as its a sick car.....but if the money shows up in the...

    Thanks! It's been a road but I'm actually in the process of selling it and buying a C5 vette.

    can someone explain runner volume plz

    ^^ This is true, but it also depends on the heads you are buying and if you plan to get further port work done. For instance you're never going to outflow a 205 with a 160 etc.

    can someone explain runner volume plz

    With a turbo like you have; it's just going to shove air down it's throat anyhow...so you can eclipse your 550hp goal anyhow. Although the size of the runner is directly related to how much cfm the head will flow; along with being proportionate to the valve size (important and limiting for stock...

    The newest Thoroughbred in the barn Whatcha think

    Geeze someone was hard as ***** up for $...you get the whole car for the shortblock and part of the heads. Can you verify it's actually a 331?

    LRS Economy shortblocks *forged*

    The shortblock I was originally inquiring about; what type of hardware does it use?

    LRS Economy shortblocks *forged*

    Common runner aftermarket 302 heads do not use 1/2" headbolts. Only heads setup for large displacement setups. AFR 165cc & 185cc heads both use 7/16", as do the majority of the mainstream TFS line. 205cc + tend to go with the larger bolts.

    Took the Cobra to the body shop today!

    Great paint and body work never comes cheap man. I had an inside line from a professional body man, doing a cash under the table job; and I got quoted $3500 for a color change; without any custom work. Depending on what you're getting done, 5k isn't rediculously out of line if it's going to be...

    clutch pedal stiffness?

    Has it always been like this? I've actually installed a fox style fork on accident my first go round. It felt like I was bending metal engaging the clutch, it was just alot of bind from the angle. I had purchased a new fork with my cutch kit from summit....tore everything off and threw it in...

    sn95 PCM consistency and PIA factor. Why are the inconsistently a PAIN?

    I know it's a 'cheaper' MAF, but what are your thoughts on the lightening MAF? I know it's able to be cal'd but it is setup for the 42# injectors. I have alot of part throttle, low rpm bucking (1200-2300 Id guess but I havent driven it since last year). The cam is not terribly aggressive; and...

    sn95 PCM consistency and PIA factor. Why are the inconsistently a PAIN?

    I've yet to be in a 94-95 car that didn't have an issue. They have all been tuned, some multiple times by multiple and reputable shops. Me thinks they are all garbage.

    Help me decide on my paint job!!!

    Pretty much if you want that 'as glass' look you will HAVE to colorsand and buff. As long as there is enough clear on it; it shouldn't come out too bad at all...but it sure sucks you have to deal with it. I am the pickiest a$$hole alive when it comes to my paint; and I have paid decent coin...

    LRS Economy shortblocks *forged*

    Yeah, I know it kinda sucks about the block thing. That is a really good deal though on that BOSS setup. I'll have to talk to my machinist and see what it's going to cost for assembly. I see it will need allign honed for the crank and I'm assuming it is a rough bore? The only 'problem' I...
