    flamming river help

    Exactly! Chicks dig big arms, trust me! lol, I don't think turning at slow speeds is that hard and I have 255 tires up front. Just takes a little technique which you'll learn right away. Just my opinion.

    flamming river help

    You will want FLA-FR: 1890, 1890Q, 1503, or 1520. I got FLA-FR1890. Here's the differences: 1890 is a complete kit with the steering shaft and tie rod ends 1890Q is the same, except quick ratio 1503 does not have the steering shaft and tie rod ends 1520 is the same, except quick ratio...

    Manual Rack and Pinion OK for street use???

    I agree, very good point, and my fronts are 255 17's, so about the same size as GroverDills.

    Manual Rack and Pinion OK for street use???

    I have a 3400# stang with a T5 and Flaming River manual steering. It's a 95% street driven car. Manual steering doesn't bug me at all, I actually like it better. I lift everyday, so I can't really say what it would be like for somebody smaller than me. I don't mean that as an insult, but at...

    Quick head question

    I'm getting the track heats, they flow the same but have a better valvetrain to allow for larger cams. They're about $100 more I believe. Just food for thought.

    Painting Intake and Valve Covers

    I agree, be very careful to not let anything fall into the lower intake. Bad news.

    Mass air conversion

    If you do use the FR conversion kit, it works fine. The MAF meter was a little small, so I eventually upgraded to a larger unit. I don't remember what size it comes with off the top of my head. As the above post stated, the main component is the computer.

    Manual Rack Questions

    It definitely takes getting used to. I love it now. Just had to get used to getting the car moving before I could turn which can be tricky in tight spaces.

    timing chain verses timing gear

    Don't they make a "noisy" and a "quiet" version? I was looking into them as well, but all the ones I found were over $300. A little too rich for my blood.

    Anyone remove their smog pump and A/C?

    When I still had power steering and removed the smog pump I had to use an idler pulley. The whole smog removal took me probably under 15 minutes. There might be a way around using the idler pulley, however I was content with the idler.

    Anyone remove their smog pump and A/C?

    There is a metal line from the rear of each cylinder head that leads to the smog pump. You'll have to plug the empty holes. Nothing hard though.

    Manual Rack Questions

    I have 255 45 17's up front, a flaming river manual steering conversion. Easy conversion, a couple of hours I think. It feels more solid to me, but thats just my opinion. You'll definitely notice the difference at very slow speeds, I've gotten used to it though. The quick ratio is a personal...

    interior swap 86-87+

    I have an 86 convertible with a complete 1993 interior. You can't tell the interior was replaced. Looks stock. Takes some time to do obviously, but it can be done.

    How far can I go with mods before I run into problems?

    From what you've listed you're improving air flow in and out. The computer will be more than able to compensate. The 19# injectors will be fine for that amount of power.

    Cool setup! I'm hoping to get new pistons, it just depends on funds (like always). Thanks 86gtstang
