    Quick question regarding emissions

    If you have no codes, it'll pass. With that being said, the car needs a certain number of "drive cycles" to pass, as well. If you just cleared the codes, it will probably fail. However, if you actually disabled the rear O2 sensors in the tune, it will pass.

    Cant leave well enough alone....

    I've had a misfire before after cleaning the engine bay. What I did was drive it until it was nice and hot, then put it away for the night with the hood open to let it dry out thoroughly. The next morning, I started it up to drive to work, and the misfire was gone.

    96 mustang differential fill plug

    I used Mobil 1 without friction modifier in my diff, and it has never given me trouble. You don't need to use friction modifier with Mobil 1 gear oil; it says so right on the bottle.

    Tank_567 Turbo build

    What he said. Sorry to hear about that, man. I was terrified of something like that happening to my brand new motor, so I plunked down the cash for a TSS billet oil pump. You can get them from Modular Head Shop, if you're interested.

    Sub mix up what would you do?

    Not to be a debbie downer, but you should have contacted the company who sent the wrong parts and let them know. They probably would have let you keep the 12s, but then at least they would know why their inventory doesn't match up.

    And you would win that bet. :nice:

    96 mustang differential fill plug

    The fill plug should be on the driver's side of the housing itself, facing the front of the car, and can be removed with a 3/8" drive ratchet.

    Injector question

    Stock injectors are either 19 lb (orange) or 24 lb (light blue) depending on the year. Those 30 lb injectors should be red assuming they're OEM Ford equipment.

    a WTF moment brought to you by Night Shifter

    As much as I'd love to join in criticizing this guy, I've forded water that deep in my Mustang, too. I've also driven it in about 20 inches of snow, plowing a path with my front bumper along the way. Since it was my daily driver (and will be again when I get the build done), I've asked it to...

    Progress Thread Flghtmstr1's 700 Rwhp Build

    I know what you mean; I'll be sure to post updates as soon as they happen. It took a long time for Modular Head Shop to ship my heads (~7 months) so that's why there weren't any updates for so long. Now that everything is in order, I'm confident I'll have it together by the end of the summer.

    I'm not sure yet. I'll probably either mount it directly on the driver's side fuel rail, on the driver's side strut tower, or on the firewall if there's room. I'm going to wait until the new engine is in to see what makes the most sense.

    I thought MagnaPacks are Loud !?!?! ummmm no

    Unfortunately, no. My friend took a bunch of videos of me at the drag strip when I was running 12.2s, but unfortunately he lost the tape. When I get my new build finished, I'll be sure to post videos, though. I'm running Bassani mid-length headers, a Bassani catted X pipe, and Magnapacks.

    Thanks Tank, but those twin 255s should be sufficient for the amount of power I'll be making. As Gearbanger said, perhaps the rest of your brother's fuel system wasn't up to snuff. Those Walbro 255s are just as good as, if not better than, the Ford GT pumps. I'm using a Fore hat, AN-8 fuel...

    Progress Thread Flghtmstr1's 700 Rwhp Build

    Oh, I also decided to go with a return-style fuel system, so I got a Terminator tank, Fore hat with twin Walbro 255s, and 60 lb injectors. I've already assembled the tank, but I can't assemble the rest of the fuel system until I drop the new engine in. I'll make sure to post those updates, as...

    I'm going to try to sell it; I think it's a bit too big for the Miata, considering it displaces more than the engine :rlaugh:. It seems like Tork Tech will sell their kits piecemeal, so if you told them you had an MP112, I'm sure they'd be happy to send you a blower-less kit. Why, are you...

    Alright, I know it's been many months, but I finally have some updates. It took a while for the heads to arrive: I know those pictures aren't terrific, but hopefully you get a good idea of what the porting job looks like. I'm impressed with the workmanship. In case anyone's wondering...

    I thought MagnaPacks are Loud !?!?! ummmm no

    My friends have told me that my car is the loudest muffled and catted car they have ever heard. When I took a test drive after putting on the 'Packs, I was worried I would get nasty letters the next day for waking up the neighborhood. With that being said, they did get a little bit louder...
