    supercharger compression ratio

    I tend to a live a little more on the conservative side. i would stay away from 9 lbs. I am planning on throwing around 9 lbs on my motor and I have a 306 with a 9:1 comp. Vortec makes a kit that is around 6 lbs without an intercooler.

    trickflow trickery?

    I was having this same problem with the F303 cam. I did everything to try and figure it out. It ended up being that the guy who put the intake on before me pinched the lower gasket causing a major internal vacuum leak. In other words the car was running on the air it was pulling in rather...

    Valve Cover Breathers cause MAF Problems

    I am thinking that my problem with my ride might be with the open element air breathers that are on the valve covers. I have half of what I should on the MAF reading. I should be around 8 and I am bouncing between 4.8 and 5.5. I am going to plug these tomorrow, what do you guys think?

    ***HELP***Possible Air Leak Issues

    Okay I figured out the EGR issue. I think I have a later model Explorer intake that does not have the EGR tube in the middle. That explains why the EGR does nothing. Would open breather caps on the valve covers cause an issue? I am going to cap one and then run the other back into the...

    WTF!!!!!Broke my rear axle!

    You can get a used axle for cheap....try and get one with disk brakes and 5 lug if you can afford it and the wheels....if not just get a stocker and swap the gears......

    ***HELP***Possible Air Leak Issues

    The Vacuum is between 15" and 18" but it goes down at an idle. 20" is very high, I have only seen a few cars get that high.

    ***HELP***Possible Air Leak Issues

    I have checked ALL of the wiring. Changed out to 4 different MAF's that were laying around. I will check the vacuum on the intake now.

    ***HELP***Possible Air Leak Issues

    OK, My MAF reading is half of what it should be. I have changed MAF's and made all of the needed adjustments. C&L is telling me that there might be an internal air leak in the intake. The reason that they believe that there is indeed a leak is because, when I activate the EGR...

    WTF!!!!!Broke my rear axle!

    Maryland, i think that you are correct. It sounds like he is talking about the drive shaft and possibly the yoke. Maybe take some pictures for us bro and we can better help you out.

    New Wheel & Tire Set up-- Need Help

    I would go with the 17's. You can fit up to 9's in the front and 9 1/2" on the rear. I have squeezed 305's on the rear of mine.

    WTF!!!!!Broke my rear axle!

    Is the housing broken or is it just the axle. I know that here in LA on craigslit there are many axles that are avail. In fact I was just looking at one from a 93 Cobra with disk brakes for $300...:)

    CAI AND TUNER OR EXHAUST?

    How will a CAI change the exhaust sound? It will change the induction sound, but not exhaust. For me, exhaust is always fist on the list. I love the sounds of a free flowing exhaust. A CAI and a tune will no doubt give you the most performance. I personally don't care for the look of the...

    H&X pipe questions

    So the car is basically running now with out the mufflers, just straight from the headers? The H-pipe had nothing to do with the emissions. Mustangs have a unique exhaust note, different from any other car out there. No matter what the year is, this is due to the cross over pipe. If you are...

    trickflow trickery?

    I have the F-303 Cam and windsor junior heads. My car did not like to idle either. I installed a wide band and check my air/fuel ratio. At an idle I was at 20 (should be around 14.7) and some times more. I had a Holley adjustable fuel regulator that was garbage and I scrapped it for the...

    Explorer Intake Question...different one...I promise

    Is the plaque on top of the Explorer intake the same as the cobra and stock? I would love to change it to a polished one and powder coat my upper black.

    H&X pipe questions

    I am assuming that there is pipe in the mid section and that they are true duals. I would still suggest to have a mid pipe. Remember Ford didn't spend millions of dollars on research for nothing....:) With that said, other then a possible loss of power (and an awesome sound), I don't see how...

    Ashtray fix....anyone try one of these??

    I think that they (the round and bulky cup holder) look way out of place. The lines of the entire fox are linear and that thing is bubbly like the ugly (94 to 98) years of the Stang. They do serve a purpose as a cup holder if that is important to you. I just mostly drink water and they have...

    Cold Air Intakes and Fox Bodies

    Just make sure that you put the filter in the fender. Having an open element next to the motor just sucks up hot air and kills performance. As you can see from Cenok, it is not that difficult to make.
