    357w: would you do it again??

    Now you got me leaning toward the 351w lol. I have it narrowed down to going 347 Dart or 393w Stock block. I have had my 93 GT since 2001, was my first car and plan to restore and keep it in the family. I do like the idea of doing it right the first time but also like the idea of saving some...

    357w: would you do it again??

    I feel like the more research I do, the more I change my mind. I spoke with someone at a car show recently that had a 351w and he said if he had to do it over again he probably would just do a mild 331/347. Main reason, like Kurt mentioned was just the little nickel and dime items and figuring...

    357w: would you do it again??

    I once had my mind set on a 331 with the paxton 1220. Then I was thinking sell the paxton for a kenne bell. Now I see the advantages of going 351w. Decisions decisions.

    357w: would you do it again??

    Yeah, I'm thinking a 357 or 393 will provide plenty of power and fun yet still be streetable. I worry that a 408 and supporting mods will quickly get to 550+ hp and be more of a track car.

    357w: would you do it again??

    My plan was trick flow 11r heads 190 or 205. Can you suggest a mild cam? So you think the Paxton 1220sl will perform well? Or should I sell it and eventually go with a different blower or turbo? My thinking is 357 or 393 with a supercharger over going n/a 408.

    357w: would you do it again??

    I'm leaning toward doing a 351w swap over a 347. Was considering going all out to a 408, but talked to a few people that said for a more street friendly car they probably would have done a 347 or 357w. I want to see if anyone else has experience on this. Did you build a short block and then...

    PD/roots style blower for Foxbody??

    I was chatting with someone at TPS, he said they had to pay a premium to have them reproduce the KB supercharger. Also said they would be shipping in July/August. $4500 for the flowzilla still seems steep to me. I would like a fun street cruiser that I can drive a few days a week and maybe an...

    PD/roots style blower for Foxbody??

    Thinking the turbo might be the way to go considering how expensive the kenne bell is. Can I keep a/c and power steering with a 351w turbo?

    PD/roots style blower for Foxbody??

    True, guess other routes would add up. If I use my sl1220, I will need bigger injectors, larger fuel pump and of course a tune. What sounds better: 1. Sell the paxton sl 1220 and get the KB. Blowzilla or flowzilla? Put it on a 331 or 306. 2. 351w with single turbo 3. 306 or 331 with paxton...

    PD/roots style blower for Foxbody??

    Awesome! I was wondering why a company didn't take over production of these sooner. Just wish the price range was ~$3000.

    PD/roots style blower for Foxbody??

    Haven't been on here for a long while since I parked my 93 GT, sold the termi and got a 2013 5.0 for my daily. I really miss driving my 93 GT around and hope in the next few months I can start restoring her. In the past was debating the 331 vs 351w, or coyote vs terminator swap. Was leaning...

    Edelbrock Or Vmp Supercharger? Help Me Pick

    I plan to restore my 93 GT one day but been focusing on my 2013 GT. After researching CAI's, intake manifolds, throttle bodies, etc I came across a lot of people skipping these mods and going right to a supercharger. Makes sense considering you won't use a boss intake with a PD supercharger...

    31x19 Griffin Radiator Fitment

    I agree, get the 28 inch. The one I installed was 30.750, had to bend and pry a few pieces. Still was able to use the stock upper supports tho and modified the stock shroud. Save yourself a small headache and get the 28. Also, I went with a summit racing radiator and have no regrets minus the...

    Ignition Or Fuel Problem, Help Please

    Tried the fuel pump test at EEC tester, not sure if I did this right but all I could here was a clicking noise from the relay I believe. I ordered a new fuel pump and filter. Do you think I should replace the relay as well?

    Ignition Or Fuel Problem, Help Please

    I have a 1993 GT. Recently, I was driving on the freeway at about 65 mph everything seemed fine and then all of a sudden it just cut out. I got it towed home and then checked a few things out. Also did a search online and saw that many people have had this happen. However, I'm now stuck and...
