    e-cam vs. 1.7's

    I agree. My crane 2040 (same as the e-cam) makes good power for the street. I don't understand why so many people bash it. It is really not a bad cam at all. It may be outdated and there are better cams out there, but it still works... Although I do wish I went with a better cam...

    e-cam vs. 1.7's

    There are many cams out there that will pass CA smog. I would consider the crane 2031 or TFS stage 1 cam over the e-cam... I wish I had when I did my cam swap.

    Should I get a scattershield?

    Rick- Summit sells the FMS/Mcleod bellhousing for $350. Do you know of anywhere that sells it cheaper? Thanks.

    sudden drop in oil pressure??? what could cause this

    I'd say as long as it stays above 25psi at warm idle, and raises as the rpms increase, then you are fine...

    Should I get a scattershield?

    I checked out Mustangs Unlimited and X2C and they only sell the Lakewood. I looked on the D&D website and it says they have an SFI approved bellhousing for $299, but it does not state which brand it is.

    sudden drop in oil pressure??? what could cause this

    When my car is warm I get about 25-35psi at idle and 50-55psi when driving. No problems.

    Power gains from A/C delete?

    I think I'll keep it in there then. Maybe I'll remove it when it dies someday.

    Should I get a scattershield?

    I think I'll get one just for the extra insurance. What is the best one to get? MCleod? Lakewood? FMS? What is the best place online to buy one?

    Power gains from A/C delete?

    My A/C works fine, but I hardly use it as my top is always down. Is it worth it to delete it? Will I feel a SOTP increase? Would deleting it shave a few pounds off my front end?

    Should I get a scattershield?

    So should I get one? I don't plan on running 10.99 or lower in my daily driven convertible. My car has never seen the track, but I do plan to run it in the future just to see what it will run. I'm shooting for mid-high 12's with the supercharger. So, should I spend the extra $$ on a...

    Should I get a scattershield?

    In the near future I'll be getting a TKO500, which means I'll need a new bellhousing. People have told me I should get a scattersheild which to my knowledge is an SFI approved bellhousing. My question is, do I really need a scattershield? Right now all I have are Edelbrock heads/intake with...

    New parts arrived. Good day for me!

    I've never run a MAC cold air intake and I never intend to. My friend had an e-cam and swapped to TFS stage 1 and noticed a suprisingly big difference. I could also feel the difference. Ever notice that no one on this thread agrees with you? But hey, whatever. It's not worth argueing over...

    New parts arrived. Good day for me!

    TFS stage 1 is no better than an E-cam? What have you been smoking my friend? The stage 1 is dual pattern and actually works better with the 302 Ford than the e-cam does. After driving my friends car who has pretty much the same setup as me, except with the stage 1 and not the crane 2040...

    Replacing a few sensors, have a few questions...

    I'm going to be replacing my IAC sensor, TPS sensor, and 02 sensors to help make my car run better. All my sensors are original and my car is about to hit 60,000 miles, so I feel the time has come. My car has also been idling really bad lately (very bouncy, and sometimes idles at 1500rpms), so...

    150 miles and my gas is gone

    No, they are more than 13.8. I just dumped 14.115 gallons or something like that in my tank today.

    331 vs 347

    I would just do a 306. Most people seem to favor a good ole 302 or stout 306 over a 347. A built 306 with your combo and maybe a little boost would be heaven. Just my .02

    150 miles and my gas is gone

    I just gased up my nearly empty tank today. I reset the odo everytime I gas up so I know what kind of mileage I'm getting. Today it read 166, which was with no highway driving all week. Last year I drove my car 5 hours on the highway to NY and only used a half tank of gas. On that tank I...

    Difference between blowers

    I know; I have already looked at other ones and judging by feedback from friends, etc., I seem to be leaning towards Vortech.
