    new motor, couple questions

    With that combo i wouldn't go higher than 24#ers. I'm running 24#er's on my car with no issues for fuel. 30#ers will be over kill and you will need to have a fuel pressure regulator to lower the pressure. That will result in poor performance and lower gas mileage(gas mileage, that's funny)...

    After TFS h/c/i swap, car runs rich + stalling...

    I wouldn't think about running 30# injectors on my combo. That would be some serious over kill, ether that or get a fuel pressure regulator and turn the pressure way down.

    Loosing power @ WOT above 3000 RPM - need help

    I have a dumb thought, what GAP did you put your plugs at? It almost sounds like your losing spark or something at WOT after 3000 - 4500 RPM's. Perhaps the air rushing in is blowing out the spark before it gets to ignite (sp.)

    Still ****ing Overheating!!!!!!!!!

    If the headers are getting red then you are probably running pretty lean. You are running twisted wedge heads, what size injectors are you running, What's the fuel pressure, is the engine pinging?

    ECT Sensor Location

    Guys - I think that i removed the ECT sensor, i still have the plug in the wiring harness though. I removed my heater core and heater tubes, so i'm guessing that i removed the ECT sensor as well. That's going to pose a problem, am i going to have to tap a new hole in the manifold and put the...

    Well if you totally want to know then put the engine at TDC then put the dizzy in pointing the toward the firewall and see if it starts, then put the engine at TDC on the compression stroke and see if she starts.

    Major Problems after intake swap on carb'd 5.0

    Umm. If that picture is correct on the first page of this and your putting the distr cap on and that's were the rotor hit for TDC then you are totally 180* out and need to change it. The rotor should point just about at the #1 cylinder at TDC on the compression stroke. That picture shows the...

Don't know if you did it or not, but when i change the exhaust on my car you need to bolt the exhaust up losely, get it lined up, then using a jack/jack up the h-pipe, then tighten the exhaust. That's the way i...
