    dynoed my car today...how'd i do??

    Methanol is an oxygenated fuel! - you can add up to 20% of your total "liquid" (fuel + H2O/Methanol) as H2O/Meth injection. That methanol has energy and burns & adds power just like gasoline. What do you think the alcohol burning race cars burn for fuel anyway?

    dynoed my car today...how'd i do??

    I realize there are a lot of vairables controlling the "backpressure" that you see (i.e. boost), often the cam overlap & minimal exhaust restrictions will lower this "backpressure". But you admitted the gauge showed 12 # - a difference of 3# from the MAP sensor. There are variables associated...

    Fuel pressure too high?

    The ECU will adjust for the lower pressure over time - it's better to get the MAF set up correctly. OTOH, there is no reason to run other than stock 39-40 psi with vacuum line disconnected. If you change it and see a temporary boost in power you will know for sure it's running too rich.

    dynoed my car today...how'd i do??

    So you're making 9.3 psi on a 302 with a 7" crank and a 2.95" blower pulley, while this guy 347 @ 10psi is making 570RWHP with a similar S-Trim combo except that he has a 347 & is making 10 psi with a 7" crank and a 3.15" blower pulley - seems odd to me since he has 45 cu-in bigger motor to...

    A new stock throw out bearing and a centerforce clutch...

    I was wondering that myself before I did it based on confusing info supplied by Centerforce. Seems to be working fine - doesn't hit the centrifugal weights (that was my fear based on their warnings).

    Here are comparison charts from the December 2003 issue of "5.0 Mustang and Super Fords" magazine.http://www.v6z24.com/howto/mufflerchoice I ended up with 18" Magnaflows. Quiet, flow great, no change in sound after 1 year - not sure where that comes from...
