    Thanks for the info. I've been looking at an A9L computer, eec harness, and injector harness for $199 for an 89 mustang. Is that too much?

    Fuel Inj. Setup Help...

    I'm gonna have to replace the entire harness...it would be a lie to say someone else hacked up my harness previously, but that's not the case here!!! It was me!!! I thought I was gonna go for the carb swap, but changed my mind. :pirate: I think it'll be in my best interest in the future to stick...

    Fuel Inj. Setup Help...

    I have an 86lx 5 speed with soon to be "nothing" in the engine compartment. I think it'll be easier on my budget if I stay fuel injected, rather than go the carb route...I have some questions though concerning parts and what all is needed. Right now it is speed density-I will be removing all...

    Pushrod Length...and Update

    Yeah, I'm glad I got the comp cam checker! I also called several people I know about the valve springs, and it basically came down to two sets with the gt40p heads: -TFS valve spring upgrade kit, and -Crane cams 44308-1 beehive spring and retainer kit I went with the crane kit because it had...

    Pushrod Length...and Update

    It's been a while since I've been on here, but I am finally making some progress on the motor build. It is a 306 with forged speed pro flat top pistons(4 valve reliefs), and the rods, crank, etc. are all stock. Just got my gt40p heads back from the machine shop with fresh valve seals and valve...

    camshaft install...

    So I installed my new cam in the 306, but noticed I can move the cam back and forth a little inside the block with the cam mounting block plate on and bolted. Is this normal?

    which balancer is this?

    I am rebuilding my shortblock on my 306, and wanted to make sure I get the right balancer to the machine shop...turns out, my car had a 50 oz. flywheel mated with a 28 oz. balancer from the previous owner...no wonder it had issues!!

    valve springs

    I was wondering if anyone knows which valve springs I need to run with my Ford b-cam. It's going with stock heads and valves. I am unsure of the spec on the heads (e-7, gt40p, etc) I can't find any identifiers on the heads or numbers. I do believe they are 1985 302 truck heads though, as all the...

    Hey guys, I am going to get a 1989 four banger t-5 for my 86 hatch. I was wondering if the clutch pedal setup that's in the donor car(89) will fit in my 86...also, can I use the clutch fork and/or clutch also? I'm on an extremely tight budget, and am looking to just get the car going at this...
