    BBK Performance SSI Intake

    BBK Performance SSI Intake

    Cam swap w\ AC

    89GT. How much of a nightmare is a cam swap with the AC condensor in the way? can it be dropped enuf to get the cam in over it? without disconnecting it? Jack up the engine? Are there any tricks to get around it? Thanks,

    Summit MAF OK?

    Anyone out there ever get a MAF sensor SummitRacing brand? Looks like thats my only choice for a 75mm 24lb calibrated sensor. Granatelli and Ford Racing dont make em that small. Pro-M is the only one that makes the same size sensor and Ive never heard of them. At least thats all Summit and...

    Dang conflicting part sites! In the middle of a project, Ive got a BBK #1557 cold air kit sitting on the floor, because of situation change I need to upgrade my fuel injectors and MAF. The BBK site says this cold air kit wont fit aftermarket MAFs. The summit site says that the Granatelli MAF...

    89GT w GT40x top end kit

    extra Id always planned to do the water pump also. I settled on the FR as well. But Ive read that Performance thermostats and EFI dont go together well so I was going to see how it went first with stock thermostat. Basicly I like this kit because its $1k cheaper than trick flow...

    GT40X kit info?

    more parts ? After reading the description for the pushrod tool, I get it now. Ive got my parts list together. Couple more newbie EFI questions. Does the MAF sensor size need to be the same as the throttle body? On Summit I didnt see a 65mm MAF, just 75mm. But the recommended throttle...

    GT40X kit info?

    gt40x install Id be doing the install. Thats why Im asking. It will be my first, lone, EFI tear down. I put an edelbrock performer top end kit on my 69 351W and that presented its own challenges and setbacks as any project does. As a friend of mine says. One step forward, two steps back. :D

    GT40X kit info?

    Cant find anything usefull on fordracing.com these days. This kit comes without roller lifters, with 1.7" roller rockers. First off, just curious if it will give significant gains on the low end. Throttle response, torque, etc. Will the high lift be too much for a smooth running street...
