    Problem With TAD/TAB Solenoids Codes 81/82. PLEASE HELP.

    No that doesn't have anything to do with the TAD and TAB I would double check to make sure they are connected to the right valves

    e303, sniper, afr heads

    Given that the car will be a cruiser and your 18 years old on a budget I would suggest just picking up a set of used gt40 heads and having them gone through. Upgrade the springs and bolt them on with an explorer or cobra intake and 65mm throttle body. Keep the stock injectors, stock cam and...

    Horse Power Gains?

    You should be in the 12's now and the combo your fellow racer mentioned probably wouldn't gain you anything over your current setup. What rear tires? play with the tire pressure a bit, unbolt one side of your front swaybar for more weight transfer while at the track and practice.

    Popping/Extreme Loss of Power/Misfire under load?? 1989 HCI 302.

    what kind of vacuum readings were you getting at idle before you tore it apart? Fuel pressure steady? no code 21 present? compression check or at least a cylinder balance test comes to mind if it were my car just throwing that out there

    What's the difference?

    Drove my grandfathers 87 escourt gt once in a while when I first got my license and it was a fun car to putt around in. The car had something like 171k on it when he passed away and was sold. He had zero issues with it and I wish I could have that car today

    Steering wheel install

    I doubt that has the required space to retain the clock spring. Haven't seen one made yet that does. You'll have to run without one and deal with the ugly space/gap or fab up a cover. Others have cut up there clockspring and bolted it back in to take up the gap but I would advise against...

    Progress Thread Progress Thread kinda stalled- looking to get it back going again!

    I can see what your saying about the white walls like. I don't have any good pictures of them on my red coupe but here is one with them on my daily driver which the wheels originally were purchased for. I felt the polished lip broke up the black and dark shadow blue Oh sweet you went with...

    Foxbody Wing, have you seen this one? Info needed

    I've always thought they looked like crap and didn't follow the lines of the foxbody at all but go for it. I've never seen one on a 79

    Nice, yeah I've had the black with machined polished lip FR500 combo on my coupe for about six years now. I went with the polished lips to break up all the black. You'll like wheels when you get them and yeah the black chrome looks pretty sweet in person

    Foxbody Wing, have you seen this one? Info needed

    lol I know people ran it but not many and that hood you speak of I've seen plenty of people back in the day rocking them. They were called twin turbo hoods and they were terrible looking. Something that that iroc owners should have had. Yeah your from NJ right? I am too i've spent allot of my...

    What wheels are you waiting on? and couldn't you just pick up a cheap set of bullets or waffle wheels to drive the car on for the fall season?

    Thinking about buying this car

    I agree and have seen it first hand as well. I personally though, even though I do not like verts much at all would probably give it a shot. Given the rear window motors most likely don't work, floor pans are probably crusty, the lower rad support is beat as we can see, various surface rusted...

    Thinking about buying this car

    If you wanted it as a beater to cruise in then i'd use the crusty suspension parts and gasket failures to your advantage and get it cheap.. Do the maintenance and a few gasket and cruise it providing it runs and shifts well but the looks of that lower rad support would tell me she's got even...

    Engine Help with Trickflow Lower Intake manifold

    My systemax2 lower doesn't have both of those only the passenger one which I put a plug in. *edit - General is correct, the passenger side is the coolant port for the EGR spacer. I did away with the coolant lines to mine years go so just plugged it

    Engine Overheating issues

    I would make sure to bleed all the possible air out of the cooling system and then look at that efan real hard. Pull some numbers off it and do research to see what kind of cfm it is tossing.. if you can't find anything on it junk it and toss stock clutch setup back on or go with a known...
