Hey Folks,
This is an engine that I had built for my 69 Bronco. Here is the run down. 351 Windsor, stock bottom end except hyper 9.5 pistons, trick flow heads with 2.02 and 1.6 valves, Trick flow 5.8 intake with 1" pheno spacer, it is the intake designed for the 1,500 to 5k range not the high rpm. 70MM throttle body and egr, 73MM C&L mass air, 24 # FMS injectors, stock 5.0 fuel rails with an aeromotive adjustable pressure regulator. I put a Accell 5.8 TFI dizzy on it, with the TFI module for the 5.0 computer. My cam specs are 112 degrees seperation 215 duration at 50, .530 lift on intake and exhaust. I am running long tube headers with the O2 sensors in the collectors. My computer is an A9L and it is all wired in through a FMS harness from 92 Stang. All this stuff is brand new except the computer, which was running my stock 5.0 perfectly before I pulled it. The problem, I had to remark my balancer for TDC, did this by finding TDC on the compression stroke on #1 and remarking the balancer with timing tape. I set the initial timing with the spout pulled at 12 BTDC. When I put the spout back in the computer advances it very far and it starts backfiring and running terrible. I don't think this combo should give an A9L much difficulty? I can get it running good by putting the spout in and adjusting the timing to where it smooths out by ear, which is around 30 degrees, but then it has trouble starting, but once going it runs great. My fuel pressure is at 42 with the motor off and 38 at idle, which is right where I think it should be. Any ideas Help. Thanks
