    I found a TFS-R used locally i am buying. We will see if it fits.

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    It ran 8.50s before the turbo, which is a low 13. It hardly has any chop at idle even in gear at 600rpm.

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    It isn't serious other than the turbo and drivetrain.

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    Who owns the car? I know some people in DFW. I grew up there and moved back 2 summers ago for 7 months. I am not trying to go 8s, but several people have gone 8s with 185s on the turbo forums. I am shooting for 9.20-9.30. I have made some suspension changes that should be good for .3 or...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    This is what has me thinking an RPM2 is a good choice. http://www.dragzine.com/features/interviews/randy-seward-the-crazy-story-behind-4000-miles-in-an-8-sec-stang/ He tried a Victor 5.0 and it hurt bottom end enough he would have restall the converter. He said it would probably go faster...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    I don't need off idle torque. I want it to work between 2500-6000. That is cruise rpm and shift point. I know I will take a hit in milage. I don't think I have conflicting goals at all. I realize i could go up some in compression. It has 9.2 compression ratio now. It already makes over...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    How do you know? What effect will runner length have on rpm range? Are you saying i will not lose any bottom end with a Vic jr? I am way more worried below 3000 than over 3000. Boost increasing airspeed will not help in the 99% of the time running under vacuum.

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    The Vic jr is designed to operate between 3500-7500 while flowing wet. Removing fuel will raise it almost 10% from what I have read. My converter will only flash to 3200 now with a TorkerII and it needs to be tighter. I would like an intake that is designed for what I want it to do. I drive...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    I have not seen any carb style intakes for below 6500. Even the Vic jr is out of my rpm range. I have been running a TorkerII and making good power but I am pretty sure it doesn't flow enough to feed my AFR185s. I would like something that would be efficient. I plan on running e85 and would...

    351w Efi Intake In A 67-68

    Anyone know what will fit under a stock hood? I don't want to rev it much over 6000 rpm. I am looking at a RPM2 or trick flow.

    Camshaft failures

    If you are losing the same lobe everytime you need to check that lifter bore. Lifters have to rotate or they will eat themselves and the lobe. There are oils and oil additives to protect cams. I have been running Joe Gibbs synthetic hot rod oil. Not the cheapest soultion, but with the heat...

    Drivetrain 8.8 Swap

    I had a fox in my car and before I got it running I was given an sn95. The axles and brakes are the only difference. The sn95 is also 1.5" longer overall. I ran mine for about 3 years with street tires, slicks and drag radials with out trouble running high 6's in the eighth. 94-04 wheels work...

    Nice! Is that a normal 60'?

    Custom 1969 Mustang (pics) - What Cam Should I Use?

    Timing and idle mixture can smooth out idle quite a bit. It will never be a smooth as stock, but I believe there is some room for improvement there. What is your initial timing set at?

    Sticky: I6 to V8 conversion

    If all you want is a stock v8, stock worn out suspension, etc, etc, etc, it is probably cheaper to buy a v8 car. I looked a several v8 cars and realized that ALL the drivetrain, suspension and brakes would be modified so I saw no need to search for only v8 cars. I found i6 cars in general were...

    8.8 rear end

    I doubt I am more educated than you and I know you have more experience. It will be Summer before I get a chance to test mine. I hope it hangs together as is.

    8.8 rear end

    I would not count on disk brakes keeping a broken axle in the housing.

    8.8 rear end

    Mike, I looked for info on how much stronger and F150 housing is over a Mustang and did not come up with anything. I know they have a beefier center and 3.25" tubes which are considerably stronger than the 2.875" Mustang tubes. From what I have been able to find the increase in diameter...

    8.8 rear end

    A nodullar case will take some abuse with a big bearing pinion support. They can be found, but most people are proud of them. A lot of people think that any old case out of a junkyard will be fine. I was not trying to rag on 9" rear ends. Properly built they are bullit proof. I am not sure...

    8.8 rear end

    Stock vs stock, I'll take an 8.8. If you put much power to a 9" with a stock case/pinion support you are looking for trouble. They are known for pushing the pinion out the front and ruining the driveshaft and breaking the trans case. Most people in this section are safe with a stock case, but...
