    How often do valve cover gaskets go bad?

    That should take care of it. The only reason I said about a stone is it will absorb most of the shavings.

    How often do valve cover gaskets go bad?

    I would bet it is. Looks like impact damage. I would try to get a honing stone in there and smooth it off.

    only starts sometimes

    I would check all your ground wires. There should be 3-4 in the engine-bay. Check battery cables at the battery and the alternator/starter.

    69 coupe resto/build-up

    Anyone here interested in a build thread? Or should I just put it in the classic section? My Dad, Brother and I will be doing all the work but the block machining and maybe body work/paint. It's my Dad's car he paid 2300 for it 5 years ago. Since then my brother has trashed a 3 speed, 4...

    Fuel pump question

    Just did one myself. Make sure to buy a walbro. I bought a BBK and it whined as soon as I put it in. Lasted for about 400 miles. Got a walbro 255 in there now. The filler neck grommet will probably break when you try to take it out. 25 bucks at a ford dealer.

    Mustang Tuning / AFR / Timing Help!

    Yeah you will probably clip the stock maf. It's max flow is 900kg, my car hits 1220 kg at 6000rpm. The pro-m 24 maxes at 1247kg so mine would almost max that out.

    Mustang Tuning / AFR / Timing Help!

    It should be fairly easy with a WB. I'm using the keep alive memory (kamrf) which shows up as less then 1 is rich, greater then 1 is lean. Sounds like it idles pretty smooth. When I first did my motor with stock eec and 30# inj with 80mm for 30# it wouldn't idle for more then 5 seconds. I...

    Mustang Tuning / AFR / Timing Help!

    You'll have to fine tune the MAF curve most likely. Especially with that nice CAI setup you have(is that custom). I'm still twEECing mine, it was pretty good except at idle it was terribly lean. Where did you get your MAF curve from? Did pro-m send you the 9 point and you converted it with BE?

    Mustang Tuning / AFR / Timing Help!

    I don't think it matters too much. But why advance it manually when you can do it thru the QH. I have mine set at 10* then I used the global spark adder to add 2 more, which is the whole way across the rpm/load table. Now I'm going back into the tables and adding 1 until I hear it detonate then...

    One more!!! Sorry! Charging issues!

    Mine does the same thing. At 750rpm I get about 13volts at 900 14.4 it's the pulleys.

    My 411rwhp N/A 347 (dyno and vid)

    Nice numbers that tq curve is sick.. Have you had it to the track? Any idea what the duty cycle is on those 36#'s. I almost have my 30#'s maxed out on my combo.

    Fuel Pump problem!

    You are correct about luck favoring the prepared. I had a friend that worked at the local pick and pull. Had him "pick" me a new EEC and CCRM. Fan went out and took the ccrm with it a few weeks later. Glad you got it all working.

    What would you buy, looking for advice

    That's what I would do. Like you said buy this one and fix what might go wrong from being beat on. Or pay alot more for one that might break anyways. Just check over what was done to it previously. My car was 1 owner 70k miles when I bought it in 2000. I knew nothing about SN95's so I...

    Converting to a Carb'd Setup

    I have my car idling fairly decent with the X303 and a twEECer RT. I have never used the QH but it can log more parameters then the tweecer which is always better. Adam95gt has a QH, don't know if he got it all working yet though.

    Rear shock-mount nut

    The problem is I can't get a open end wrench on the nut because it's so close to the bracket. Box end is no chance same with a socket. I'm going to try to find a thin walled wrench or grind one so it fits in there. I have owned the car for 10 years and they were on there when I bought it. So...

    Rear shock-mount nut

    I noticed yesterday that the driverside lower shock-mount is loose. The whole shock-mount moves up and down an 1/8th inch or so when the rear-end moves. So I figured I would try to tighten it. I can't get a wrench on the damn nut between the rear and the shock-mount. Does it take a special...

    Is it getting spark and fuel? Are the plug wires on right? Does it try to run at all?
