    5.0 6speed

    There is a way to convert a newer T56 to mechanical Speedo, I believe it involves swapping the tail shaft and some hard parts, but take that with a grain of salt, because I have never personally done it… I think you can also get a Speedo driver…

    SUGGESTONS ON A TURBO CAM

    Stock HO roller cam, degreed in and retarded 4 deg with 1.7 ratio rocker arms Cheap (free), idles well, good emissions, good fuel economy, great drivability, and while it may not be quite ideal for max power it will make more power than the rest of your stuff can deal with. You know it’s...

    how to pass emissions???

    Obviously you need to run colder plugs, retarded timing, and higher octane fuel relative to your NA tune when using nitrous… But this is your nitrous tune, when you are driving around off the bottle (or trying to pass emissions) you should be running a tune better fitted to NA. Running...

    how to pass emissions???

    I think you might be confusing Nitrogen Oxides (NOX) with pre-ignition… First off running 93 octane and 9 deg of initial timing is not helping you, if you want to keep your timing down (I would put it at 10 though, unless something very weird) running the 87 octane will help (but not going to...

    how to pass emissions???

    I don’t care if he puts cats on or not, but he needs to fix what wrong with his car. He is 6X the legal limit for HC at idle, something is wrong. Running it this way he is shortening the life of his engine, and if he puts cats on it right now, it might pass, but it will significantly shortens...

    how to pass emissions???

    You can correct me if I had have this backwards, but I am about 99.99% sure that pulling the spout out will retard the timing to the base level (like 10 deg BTDC) and it runs at a higher advance with the plug in at idle.

    how to pass emissions???

    Uhhhh, he doesn’t have to pass NOx emissions, why on earth would he want to do that?:nonono:

    how to pass emissions???

    Since this is my profession I suppose I should weigh in… There is something wrong with your car, you are running pig rich at idle as indicated by your off the chart hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide results (not many people relies that carbon monoxide is formed when the fuel mixture is rich and...

    JUST BECAUSE IT'S IN PRINT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S TRUE

    Of course you can turbo a stock block and it works, but it is also a very good idea to understand a few things when doing such an endeavor: Stress/strain curves SN curves and general fatigue theory Production tolerances Basic Fracture mechanics Just so you know what you are getting...

    Thinking about buying a 96 Cobra, Suggestions Please!

    The “B” series heads can make great power; they flow pretty well but are a little hurting on the low end numbers. The solution, rev them high… The powered rods and hyper pistons are a little weak, but the forged crank and block are very strong. The weak rods and pistons can actually take...

    Another cobra brake clearance thread...

    Alright everyone claims you can’t fit 15” rims over cobra rear brakes without really expensive rear wheels or tons of positive offset. I am planning on upgrading the brakes on my LX and printed off some of the different templates that Baer has on their website for wheel fitment. Here is a...
