    Electrical 94 GT MAF

    DISCLAIMER - the below are just comments and in no way the fix to your code issue. Merely providing my two cents. Checks are free so I'd start with that first before buying / changing anything. 652 & 628 - These are automatic transmission codes. 652 - AOD-E torque convertor clutch solenoid...

    Electrical 94 GT MAF

    Not without some modification. If the 75MM MAF has the 4-bolt flange like the stock 70MM unit you would have to oblong the 4 bolt holes. Still I believe most 75's are longer than the stock unit, don't think it will work honestly. What you can do is buy an air filter with 4 studs and just bolt...

    94 5.0..... Smoke from dipstick (lots)

    Like mentioned, compression test. Normally smoke or even the dipstick pushing up is blow by. If the PCV system is hooked up properly a compression test will tell the tail.

    Electrical 94 GT MAF

    Yes, the car will run horribly when the MAF is unplugged (limp mode). The MAF is telling the ECC how much air is entering the motor. It adjusts fuel accordingly. Run a code scanner and see what codes are stored. Do the free stuff first like checking plugs, plug wires (non burned up by the...

    Anyone Else Buy Stuff You Don't Need?

    Wow, I always wanted one of those for my red 94 but at the time they were hard to come by and pretty pricey. In the end I went 94-95 GT / Cobra Vortech S-Trim which was quite loud, V1.

    Steeda clutch cable is in, well at the least the firewall portion, need to go under the car next. Booster and master cylinder in, well at least the firewall portion. This was a killer but finally it's over. Untitled by jpjr501, on Flickr

    Oh yeah, sure feels like it took me 20 minutes to take it apart and months putting it back together. This friggin booster is fighting me, it's painted and new. The old one I had to beat out with a rubber mallet (broke the mallet). This one just doesn't quite clear the strut tower. It's the...

    When I retire in a few years and kids are on their own I'm moving up by General Kathief (well Dade City) on at least 5 acres. There I"ll build a house for me and the wife but the best part is I'm building a 3-4 bay shop on the property. Must have working facilities such as bathroom with shower...

    Reran the alternator harness from the top of these brackets and moved them under. This cleared up the top of the bracket but it was dirty so wire wheeled it all. Then the coil and coil bracket looked rusty so I removed that and repainted this too. This is why it's taking so long. Same thing...

    The Onion strikes again! The fuel injections wiring harness was so trashed the wire looms were broken inside the electrical tape. On top of that every fuel injector plug was broken one is so bad it'll need to be replaced (see pic). On top of that this car came with the newer style skinny 24...

    SN95 Radiator Recommendations for a 94 Cobra?

    Steeda use to sell C&R radiators which is the brand for NASCAR, Rolex series, etc. My car never went over 185 ever with a 347 Stroker. Now I think they only sell Griffin which I didn't like back then. These pics are from July in South Florida, probably 98 degrees out. The C&R radiator, 180...

    Well I started putting it all back together last night. I"m taking my time, putting looms on this and cleaning up some overspray. That white cable is the clutch cable which is being removed for a Steeda unit. In fact I just need to get under the car to release it. Some over spray is on the...

    SN95 94 GT ride height

    I have them on the white 94GT project car but I don't have the Nitto G2 tires I ordered yet. Here is my previous red 94GT. The rims are 2003 Cobra chrome 17's with 275 tires up front and 315's out back. The drop is subtle. When I get the new tires on the white car I'll post some pics...

    SN95 94 GT ride height

    If you want the slammed look then Progressive Rate springs. I'm too old for a harsh ride like that so opted for FRPP 5300-C springs. It's 1" up front and 3/4" out back, so it's not on the floor. Cutting springs is also a harsh ride. You could buy the 5300-C springs and just put the rear...

    347 horsepower estimate

    Well when on a dyno it registers the horsepower your making at the wheels. Horsepower ratings on cars are rated at the flywheel so the time it goes through the transmission and driveshaft some of the horsepower is lost. Say your car made 100HP from the factory, most likely it would make 80HP...

    The casting on the Chinese Typhoon intakes are horrible. I should know, I have a real Edelbrock RPM upper and it's really hard to pair with chinese lower I have. In fact the ports were so small after laying down the gasket I had to rework on the chambers. It took forever and still all not...
