    F or B cam for my explorer motor

    I am NO cam guru, or anyhting even close. for the combo that was listed, and the two, or three cams suggested, i gave my honest opinion. yours, with an nx 264, i would say it should idle and drive great. power may be a bit on the short side seeing how you are using a small poRt, very...

    gear preload ??

    no. you would HAVE to remove the crush sleeve, and start over. the only way adding some torque can be done without total remove of the pinion gear, is if you use a solid pinion spacer. then loosen, and retorque.... so, i assume you tightened the pinion nut till the slevve crushed, and all...

    most boost on stock motor?

    not really honestly. on a stock shortblock, with forged pistons, if you run say 12lbs of boost, and too much timing, and/or too low octane fuel, your going to break something. the hyper may go faster, but if your tune is far off enough to detonate, you will break either piston.

    most boost on stock motor?

    and with iron heads etc........... anyway, i would say solely due to the fact you have no experience with it, i would run a conservative 7-9 lbs max on a stock longblock. add aluminum heads, up that to 9-11..........as you go along, and learn more, you can go as crazy as you want. just...

    Can i keep my Mast.Cylinder with 95cobra front brakes and keep my drums in rear?

    yes you can. it is NOT optimum to say the least. you will make the one wheel lockup in the front much worse.......... be warned. i ran that for 2 years btw

    F or B cam for my explorer motor

    bfd, i have had 15 stangs........15. the last 89 ran 17lbs of boost, with what most here would call stage three or four tw heads (300 @ .600, and 200 @ .600ex), c4, 4500 stall, 4.10's.....as for trapping.......start thinkin low 120's i could go on for hours about other cars.........i wont...

    Flat top piston ?'s....

    it has a dish. i have held them in my hands. same with the probes the compression height was becuase to get the dish shaped right, the compression was too low, thus they changed where they drilled the pin hole, this brings the piston up to deck, and maybe slightly out depending on too...

    How much more boost before needing a retune

    at the very least, make a pull with a WBO2 on it to verify your still safe. i would also pull 2 degrees of total timing, leave the base timing alone tho. good luck

    Msd system now MAJOR blow by?

    totally unrelated. looks elsewhere for your problem. i would advise a leakdown test personally.......at the VERY LEAST, a compression test.

    In a rush and need info on tires.

    they will if they are drag radials. if they are nt555's...........it would depend on if your other tires were bricks or now........they are all i run on stangs fwiw (other than nitto dr on the back sometimes).....

    Ideal A/F ratio

    only accurate if you have a GOOD wideband......those standard widebands and guages are not accurate, or even fast enough to tune with,... that being said, your question has MANY correct answers. for N/A, shoot for 12.9-13.5 at WOT. for some heads, you can go as lean as 15:1-16:1 at...
