    Can I drive to Dyno tune with 42lb's?

    I see what your saying.... I think might just bring them with me and pay an hour labor and have them install them. (or I could get there early and do it in the parking lot....:) I am thinking bringing them would be the safest bet because I don't want to have to put back in the 19's and...

    Can I drive to Dyno tune with 42lb's?

    I talked with Dan and I am going to get my tune done at Pro-Dyno. I am not sure what way to go with the 42lb injectors. I have to drive about 100 miles the morning of the tune. Dan said that the car might run okay or might not with the 42's and no tune. Would I be better off to just...

    Have horrible squeal at start up after heads and intake?

    Got the problem fixed, I hope. After trying 1 spacer than 2 spacers behind the Vortech bracket, I still had the noise. I took the spacers out and went to Autozone and got a Goodyear belt. No more noise. I have no idea why my brand new Gates belt was making noise, but it is gone with the...

    Have horrible squeal at start up after heads and intake?

    Tried the belt dressing and still have the squeal. I have added some pics. Does anybody see anything that looks out of place. I am almost thinking that my smog pump and alternator bracket needs to come to the front of the car more? What do you guys think?

    Have horrible squeal at start up after heads and intake?

    I will wipe them down then try the belt dressing. The belt is new. I am thinking since it didn't do it right away that it was from the coolant getting on the power steering pump pulley. I was worried after all that work with the heads that I F'd something up, and it turns out to be a...

    Have horrible squeal at start up after heads and intake?

    Yes, you are right. I took the belt off and started up the car and no squeak. When I spin the smog pump pulley there is a little squeak there. Could this thing have went out at the same time I did everything else? I guess anything is possible.... I probably did get some coolant on the...

    I know there are a ton of posts about this but I can't find one that explains exactly how to make a solid lifter out of a hydraulic one. Pics would be cool..... Or is is possible to buy a solid lifter for a Ford that would have the same dimensions? I know this is suppose to be an easy...

    Can I use head-studs with a SN-95 brake booser?

    I am doing a head swap and I am looking at using head studs. My concern is that I will not have enough room to get the driver side head onto the studs due to the brake booster being so big. (From M-2300-K 5 lug swap kit) Has anybody added head studs (with in engine still in the car) and is...

    I am sure this has been answered but I cannot find it searching. I am installing some new heads and wanted to plug the emissions port in the back of the heads. I need to keep the smog pump due to my bassani catted x-pipe. Can I just plug the end of the valve that is after the air check...
