    Did I get screwed?

    Can you do me a huge favor.. and take some up close pics of them.. Also, what do you measure from the flank (bottom most part of the lobe), to the tip on the intake and exhaust lobes. I get 2.126" and 2.095".

    Did I get screwed?

    After some searching.. I believe that these are Houston Performance regrinds.. Looks like the lobes have been welded on, or heat treated..

    Did I get screwed?

    I purchased a set of cams from a local guy.. I know the guy, and trust him, so I didn't really take a look at the cams except to give them a quick once over to check for dings/scratches.. They are in Comp boxes.. and he said that they have the following specs.. .531" lift 292* duration 114...

    Building my 2 valve..

    Nah.. she still runs strong.. Just clicked over 80K miles though, so, I figure it's about that time. She gives a little puff of smoke on startup, after sitting for a while.. so, the valvestem seals are probably starting to go as well. No reason to trash a good Windsor motor.. so, I'll rebuild...

    Building my 2 valve..

    Thanks guys.. That gives me right at 9:1 C/R with a 18cc dish.. which is perfect for what I'm doing.

    Building my 2 valve..

    I'll be pulling my windsor 2 valve out this week for a rebuild.. I'm installing a set of manley rods, and pistons.. What is the combustion chamber volume (CC's) for the 2 valve 2000 model PI heads? I have a piston with a 18cc dish.. Travis

    TRACK TIME

    Yup.. 13's should be easily attainable.. I went 13.80 @ 97mph, with a bone stock 2000 GT (with the exception of a K&N filter, which the previous owner had installed), and some MT drag radials.. stock clutch.. stock exhaust..

    12.40 @ 111mph..

    What brand/setup do you recommend? This isn't a full blown drag car.. so I want to keep it reasonable.. just a weekend warrior/daily driver.. soon to be in the 550-600whp range..

    12.40 @ 111mph..

    1.83 was my best effort.. It went something like.. *hop* *hop* and then it grabbed hard.. Time for some coilovers.. I've got my Auburn diff.. just need some Strange axles to finish it off..

    12.40 @ 111mph..

    http://www.fi-r.net/images2/mustangpics/12.40pass.wmv She has more in her.. but, my alternator decided to come apart at about half track.. :( Looks like the rear bearing went south.. wacked the crap out of it with a hammer, tightened the nut back up on the pulley, and drove home.. The 4.10's...

    Blown GT track video footage..

    Went back to the track last night with my 4.10's installed.. But, my alternator decided to explode on me.. Halfway down the track, the thing starts making all sorts of racket.. and locks up.. The car slowed up a bit, and I went 12.30 @ 111mph. I popped the hood, and the nut that holds the...

    Blown GT track video footage..

    I was running a set of 275/40 nittos.. the reason I'm bogging is because of the combination of the tall 1st gear of the T56, and the 3.27's out back.. The car hooks.. but, it can't rev out fast enough to get into the powerband.. so, it takes a sec for it to start moving.. The exporer diff is...

    Earlier Model Mustangs have stronger blocks?

    I've heard that the Windsor built engine's pistons have a thicker top ring land.. is this true?

    Blown GT track video footage..

    I sure hope so.. lol.. It's gotta be hell on the driveline launching at that kind of RPM, and bogging down.. I'm going to pick up some aftermarket axles, and at least rebuild my tracloc while I'm in there.. How strong is the factory posi if it's freshened up? Will it hold decently at the...

    http://www.fi-r.net/images2/mustangpics/NoviMustangTrackNight.wmv Went to the track Saturday evening.. I made a best pass of 12.60 @ 111mph, and my best trap speed was a hair under 113 (112.92). Best 60ft was 1.887. Yes, I know that's horrible.. but, with the 3.27's and the 6spd.. I couldn't...

    Viper-spec T56 installed... what gears?

    Nope.. that's a 130.00 Ebay bar and plate intercooler.. :) They work damn well too.. that same cooler on my buddy's T-trim Saleen, made 680whp!
