    Makes all that hard work worthwhile doesn't it? I do not think the Gods are frowning at you either. That sounds tough!

    5.0 Fuel Injection

    Fascinating, I have seen high pressure external pumps used, like in Edelbrock's kits, but never a low pressure pump that feeds the high pressure pump. What is the advantage if using this set up?

    5.0 Fuel Injection

    I'm thinking of installing a 5.0 with the fuel injection into a 65 fast back. I am looking for any suggestions on how to design the fuel system. Specifically what kind of pump set up. Any ideas or personal experience feedback would be appreciated.

    T 5 Fluid

    Thanks for the replies guys. I went with the Mercon V. The only problem I had was the defective second gear that broke under no load at all. Then I found out the supplier of the supplier that I got my gears from said they have recieved over 200 defective 2nd gears. I found a second gear that was...

    Oil Pressure, Where's The Oil Pressure?

    Working on an 04 4.6 DOHC engine, has been sitting 5 years, ran when pulled, now has no oil pressure when cranking. It will not fill oil filter. I have not started the engine, just filled with oil and cranked it over. The pick up has a good seal. Any suggestions appreciated.

    T 5 Fluid

    Thanks pissedoff, I've done some reading on it and as far as I can tell it's not a problem to go from III to V. I'm installing a freshly rebuilt T-5 in my 90' and I ran out of Mercon III and have several quarts of the V on the shelf. I've always put in the III before. I forgot to ask the tech...

    New Engine running too cool

    Borrow your wife's of mom's baking thermometer and measure the temp with the engine at it's hottest reading. I'm asuming you have been able to get the rad cap off without spewing coolant everywhere if you can stick your finger in it. What T-stat are you running?

    Cobra intake worth it?

    On my 90' I'm running GTP heads, Explorer intake and 70mm EGR spacer and throttle body with a cold air intake, a 73mm C&L Maf housing and 24# injectors. The bottom end is .030 over with a B303 cam. I couldn't be happier. I gasket matched the lower and head. Smoothed out the radiuses in the lower...

    flywheel bolts shorter than flexplate bolts

    Actually, since the Standard trans flywheel is thicker than the Auto trans flex plate, the flywheel bolts should be longer.

    Cranks, wont start after attempting a KOER test.

    Okydoky. This car was brought to me because of a no crank issue. The owner said the solenoid on the fneder would only click when attempting to start the car. They had replaced the solenoid and the starter with no luck. (93 starters have a solenoid on the starter as well as the one on the fender)...

    Cranks, wont start after attempting a KOER test.

    Thanks for the info jrichker. I noticed the codes I retrieved all share the same signal return circuit back to the PCM at pin 46. I performed the pin point tests you outlined above and have a question. On the ECT test it says I should have continuity between the signal return and Battery...

    Cranks, wont start after attempting a KOER test.

    Okay, riddle me this, I have a 93 GT. The check engine light was coming on immediately after starting whether hot or cold. With the engine cold I ran a KOEO test and it spit out codes 51, 22, 53, 54, 35 and 67 through the check engine light in that order. I used the method of jumping the single...

    Speed Hut Gauges in 67 Gauge Cluster

    I prefer to go with an electronic speedometer when installing aftermarket gauges. It is easy to calibrate them accurately and if you change rear gears at some time all you have to do is re calibrate it. No messing around with different tooth count speedo drive gears.

    67 Brake Light Issues

    The Green light at the brake light switch should have battery voltage to it. The Green/Red wire goes to the Turn signal switch where it is split to feed both rear brake/turn lights. Check the 10 pin connector at the steering collumn that connects to the Turn switch, verify that all the pins in...

    68 Mustang over-heating after upgrades

    I would try setting the initial timing at 10 degrees and then work on the jetting, then go back and tweak the timing some more and if necessary play with the rods and jets again. If your timing is way off it will effect the mixture so get that out of the way first. On the running hot, as I...
