    A/C Evaporator Core

    Guys, I have the HVAC box from under the dash out of the car, and would like to remove the A/C evaporator core from it, since I'm deleting A/C, this thing is only in the way. My question is, how do you actually get it out of the box? The only way I can see is to split the HVAC box in half, and...

    pondering

    Hey guys, I am currently putting together my motor, even though the car won't see the light of day for several months, here's my current plan: std bore 347 stroker short block with E7 heads w/ minor porting work done to them. My question is, as I'm starting to look into cam selection, what...

    'vert top frame swap

    Never done it, but I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have to, so I've thought about it a bit. I believe all you have to do is remove the backseat/side panels, and the bolts that hold the entire frame should be in there, just unbolt and swap with the new...I can only imagine that it'll be a bitc*...

    Front Suspension?

    Rod End *should* mean they are adjustable... only effective if you know how to adjust them correctly.

    help identifying mysterious black box

    Yes, I can confirm (since I'm re-wiring the car completely...) that is the module used to control the electric fan on 4cyl cars. Mine was burned up in my car as well, possibly a factory problem, most likely the result of some jackas* trying to incorrectly wire in a switch to their fan however...

    351C

    Guys, I'm rolling ideas around in my head, seemingly making my car that much more expensive to complete, I need to stop and build with what I have, but what fun is that? My question is, what cars came with either the 2V or 4V 351C motor in it?

    Oil primeing tool

    Yeah, you don't want to get too carried away with the drill you're using, just a regular cordless (18V or so). On a side note, make sure you don't pull the little metal clip off the hex shaft if installing a new one with the motor together.... you might miss... and it makes an unsettling...

    Oil primeing tool

    If I remember correctly, any bits you use with a standard cordless drill will have a 1/4" hex, so basically, get one of the extensions for those, leave the bit out, and use the area that the bit would have been in to turn the shaft. One of the better ford designs in my opinion. Of course...

    Wiring Harness Question

    Guys, I think we might be missing something, I believe the problem is that the harness is incorrectly wired. The blue wire on the car side of the harness needs to be attached to the blue/white from the radio side of the harness. I believe this isn't the case in his current wiring, therefore...

    New guy to boards needs help with rear end

    You said you got new mounts in the original post, are either the motor or the trans mounts solid perhaps? This would certainly amplify any vibrations. Also one solid and one regular mount would cause something nasty to happen I'm sure... Just a thought, -KB

    So why wont my steering come back around after turning

    Sounds to me like more of a suspension issue than a steering system issue, the car *should* naturally want to return the wheels to the zero position on its own since you have to insert force to the system to get the wheel to turn... going in a straight line is cake for it. I wouldn't...

    Mustang Alarm

    Chances are its a cheap aftermarket alarm, pull the dash below the steering wheel and look for any boxes that don't look factory. Anything but an absolutely dirtbag alarm will have fuses near the control module, which is usually installed in the above mentioned location. Pull the fuses, and...

    ecu usage

    Electronics are my specialty, my question was is there any way to bypass the ECU and still have proper usage of factory gauges? Are the gauges ECU controlled, or is the ECU simply a jumper point for them? Obviously the ECU will need several of these signals, but does it modify the incoming...

    ecu usage

    Guys, I'm in the process of swapping my 2.3/A4LD to a carbed 302/t5 combo. My question is, I'm trying to make everything as clean as possible, will it be possible to completely remove the ECU and engine wiring harnesses? My concerns are with using original gauges and such. Can anyone tell...

    Had a friend put one on his 93 turbo probe, built it, downloaded default fuel maps and such, put it in... the car started immediately and had 2-3 mpg improvements before tuning even began... I'm sold

    what gears are in this 8.8.

    Figured I'd slightly hijack this thread... By my build tag in the drivers door, I've referenced and it says I have 3.73 gears. Was this even a possibility in my '90 2.3LX Convertible, or am I reading the chart wrong? If I do in fact have these gears, will they be strong enough to...

    No sound on aftermarket deck

    If my theory is correct, you've done the best thing you could have done, however, if there are any others out there with similiar problems, replacing the speakers may not have been "necessary". That being said, aftermarket speakers are definately leaps and bounds better than factory. I would...
