    bought a sn93 S/C today i need some tips on things reguiarding it

    30# injectors at stock fuel pressure with no fmu safely made 429 rwhp at 10 psi for me, and it was still pretty rich (11.8) why the crap does everyone go so overboard with fuel?? It's not 10000 horsepower, I bet the stock 19's with an FMU will be great

    Got a 93 5.0 that will not turn up!

    I have my timing at 0 base right now, its not as sensitive as you'd think. I've run as low as 2 degrees retarded, and as high as 22 degrees advanced. It's definately a possibility, though. I would personally suspect a bad MAF element. Also, make sure the BAP sensor is not connected to anything...

    Head/Gasket problem

    Same identical problem, 2 different cars... Drive it easy to moderate, no problems at all. Hammer it and it blows antifreeze right out the radiator cap, overflows the bottle, and makes a huge mess. Fill it back up, all better. Drive all day long. No misfire, no coolant in the oil, no smoke...

    94/95 5.0 in fox? Pros and cons

    SN = shorter accessories, bent intake, and cast pistons. Same amount of power. Heads, cam, rockers, block, crank, mains, all the same. The lower intake doesnt have the provision for the intake temp sensor but is otherwise the same and will allow an older plenum to bolt on to it. Headers and...

    turbo gsr civic vs nitrous mustang??

    I've driven a H22A civic and thats by far the biggest misconception ever. How can putting MORE weight on the front wheels make it not want to turn. That's insane. I have no idea why everyone thinks that that makes the car handle bad. This was one of the best handling FWD car's I've EVER gotten...

    Reliability

    I drove my car to florida last july, drove it to new york last weekend, and take it whenever and wherever I want to go, the fox is a damn reliable vehicle, especially if you dont race it, but even if you do.

    Posi, good or bad?

    Thats why so many awesome cars are one leggers... cause most people dont know how to drive em. If you can handle going sideways and know how to deal with it, in the rain AND snow, 2 tires spinning will always always always give you more going power, its impossible for it not to. But yes, if its...

    did you all NOT see what my reply says right up top before you even asked?? I'll get you the Timken part number tomorrow if you need to know more info but I thought I was pretty clear about it. I got a 1978 mazda 4 banger pickup bearing and it works perfect. And correct... the 4 banger mustang...

    Bout to buy 88-93 Mustang GT what to look for?

    Places where rust will typically first appear: Around the radio antenna Under the door handles Towards the top of the A pilliars Near the hatch hinges Check the harmonic balancer to see if its been replaced or if its coming off its rubber, pull a spark plug if you can to see how its...

    turbo gsr civic vs nitrous mustang??

    B20 is the CRV motor, preludes have the H22A... and the H22A is the king of motor swap setups, trust me. As far as if you can beat him... car for car, no you cant. He should be running solid 12's, maybe faster, and you should be running solid 13's. But if the car runs bad (like a TON of turbo...

    88 5.0 cuts out... whats the problem?

    I'd be willing to say its fuel pump time. When you took that corner, the pump might have grabbed some air, and on an old pump, that's sometimes enough to do it in since it over-revs.

    Best clutch for ~300rwhp

    Spec stage 1, good on the street, engages just hard enough, and doesnt chatter. Stage 2 will shock the crap outta the drivetrain if you ask it to, but still doesnt chatter and works well. King Cobra's overheat if you powershift or drive/launch hard repeatedly. Centerforces work great but...
