    Please Explain Bigger Fuel Pump Logic!!

    Vipersix Thanks for the thorough explanation. I have often wondered why you need a new pump with 300% of the volume, for an engine making 40% more HP. This question is raised constantly. And it drives me nuts when the answer is usually...................... "Because a 255lph pump only...

    question about thumper heads, wrong info maybe

    Absolutely. And it would be pretty boring if we all went fast the exact same way. I have huge respect for a guy that can go damn near as fast with half the parts. I am putting together one of the cookie cutter aluminum combos with used parts. Partially because I don't think I have the...

    Relocating battery to trunk

    Make certain you use heavy enough cable for your application. A 347 with 11-1 compression needs far more amperage than a 302 at 8-1. Voltage drop is really hard on starter life. I burned a few up in short order, many moons ago. Be nice to just go huge on the cable and be done with it, but...

    Relocating battery to trunk

    I agree Troy. The closer you get to 50/50 weight bias, the better off you generally are. That's a principle of suspension tuning. Moving 1% of the cars total weight rearward is probably not going to a huge difference in handling in any event. Nothing you couldn't tune out anyway.

    AFR 165 heads or T5swap?

    Maybe that's why we told him not to install those tranny bustin AFR heads. :D Just kidding, you make a good point. I was kinda thinking he would find a deal on all the T-5 stuff used for a good price. It wouldn't make sense to wrap up too much cash in a new T-5, when stronger tranny is...

    Avg age of sn95 owner Poll!

    My hair has gone a little thin on top, but at least it isn't grey on the sides. :rlaugh: I'm two years older than the first Mustang.

    AFR 165 heads or T5swap?

    T-5, then gears. Heads and a custom cam dialed in to the wrong stuff would just have to be fixed later.

    Cylinder Compression Questions

    Shawn That sounds like real good news. :nice: Glad it worked out. You can do a wet test. I guarantee all your cylinders will go up, thereby proving your engine isn't brand new. You already knew that I bet? Provided you got reasonable oil pressure, I'd mod away if you so desire.

    Are GT-40X Turbo Swirl Aluminum Heads from FRP a good bolt on?

    That's an interesting approach. How big were your Y ports after the porting? Flow numbers? I noticed FRP is advertising 240I & 170E flow rates for the X heads in the newest catalog. That's considerably better than I had previously seen from various web sources. I wonder if the casting is...

    Cost of T5 rebuild?

    I'm gonna hazard a guess. He meant "bench". You remove and replace the transmission yourself.

    Cylinder Compression Questions

    You guys might check the 94-95 tech forum. Thread is getting a response there now.

    GT-40's are back from the shop with flow numbers.

    All Ford parts suck. Just let it go Tom. :D J/K of course. You and your friends are putting down some very impressive numbers with the factory stuff.

    About to order heads...

    To state that either head is "not good" is just ludicrous. WAAAAY too many of both heads are part of a proven 300HP+ combo. This horse is beaten to death, but it comes down to a proper combo period. I bet you could take two side by side 300HP combos. One AFR-One TW, switch nothing but the...

    Cylinder Compression Questions

    Shawn Definitely heed Hissin50 advice. You should always test warm, with the throttle propped open, and a strong battery. Pull all spark plugs out, and then test. Be careful who you are comparing compression data with. Even a small difference in cam timing can make a pretty substantial...

    What other uses is there for a Tweecer than "beefing" up an aode.

    "I'll also be switching over to an a9l setup which has waaaayyyyyy less restrictions. So what else can a tweecer do for my car?" You're gonna be in big trouble when Grady sees this thread. :rlaugh: Tweecer will allow your ECM to grow with your car as you perform mods. You can dial in the...

    Find me a 94/95 GT and win $50

    Patrick I saw the car in 5.0 MAG. I thought that might be you. You trade them even faster than I thought. :) I know modding isn't for everyone. I have to do it. The car isn't "mine" until i do. Thanks for the QC forum link. I'll check in there when I get a chance.

    Find me a 94/95 GT and win $50

    Patrick, Yes this is Dewayne. Last we talked you were were getting a Turbo Fox 2.3 or something. That ever happen? Now that you've test drove them all, you really need to pick out something you like. When you get tired of it, throw some mods at it. You've seen my garage. I'd help you...

    Who makes a timing cover / water pump bolt kit for 94-95 GT's???

    "These are all 12 point, black oxide 5/16-18 bolts." Rick's way is a MUCH better plan. Or any plated high strength fastener. Those will keep proper torque, and come back out years later without an issue. I'd still throw a little neversieze on them due to the steel on aluminum contact.

    Blueovalnews.com 94-95 article

    Quite a few of the writers points have some truth to them. (And I too have read of numerous balancer failures on various Mustang tech forums. It seems to be pretty common). However, even if everything stated is true, SN95 enthusiasts have already found a cure for most all of the shortcomings...

    I know where there is a clean 94GT just a few minutes from your house. No wait.........., you've already owned that one. Seriously. :rlaugh:
