    Shift kit

    Trust me man, its worth it. I have a 3 speed automatic 1970 stang and with that shift kit installed it kicks like downshifting a manual trans. not only that but it gives a much harder jump when shifting under full throttle.

    Edelbrock RPM Performer on 86'?

    How much do you pay for gas?

    here in carlisle pennsylvania, we are at $2.55 for 87. its hard when you have to fill up on a 1970 gas hog. sometimes i wander if I4 turbo would have been the better choice :(

    E303 cam and TFS heads combo?

    so youre saying that the sider the LSA, the more smoother idle it will have, and the more low end power it will put out? and the narrower the LSA, the more rough idle it will have, with more of a mid range output?

    E303 cam and TFS heads combo?

    yeah, i def. am planning on checking the valve piston clearance. i have an important question though, im just now learning about cam specs and i dont quite understand LSA. fromn what i understand the narrower the LSA, the more low end the cam is producing is that correct? and the wider the lsa...

    E303 cam and TFS heads combo?

    thanks, i appriciate the info. i want to make this old beast a red light to red light dominator. So why wouldnt the E303 cam be good with low end torque? ive heard it is great. is the trick flow stage 1 any better than the E303 cam , used with trick flow heads? i read that the E303 has LSA of...

    E303 cam and TFS heads combo?

    Hi im building an 86' 5.0 motor to drop into my 1970 mustang and i want to make it into a low end torque producing power house. Sacrificing top end for low end is not a concern. I have done some research and Ive come to the conclusion that I want to go with the E303 cam, and Twisted Wedge TFS...

    86 5.0 project-need help please!

    If i go with a set of TFS pistons with different valve angles, will that effect the limitations of what type of heads i can get? I was planning on going with roush 351 winsor heads, or trick flow twisted wedge heads. i had the B303 cam in mind, any other ideas ?

    86 5.0 project-need help please!

    Hey I'm building an 86' 5.0 high output motor that I'm dropping into my 70' stang. I'm 17 and I dont have much experience with building a bare block. I'm planning to put aftermarket cam, pistons and heads onto the block. From what I understand, if you replace the stock heads or stock cam in an...
