Have not posted in a while, my 1988 is all back together and runs well, few issues to resolve and thought I'd list them here and see what you think, I promise at least some pictures of her soon!
The car is a 1988 with a full Saleen kit and fresh dark green paint, upgraded T-5, 3.73 gears, moser axles, subframe connectors, monster diff cover with girdle, fresh motor build, stock crank/rods, aftermarket pistons, all fresh clevite bearings, E-cam, world junior heads, slightly tweaked cobra upper/lower, aftermarket CAI, throttle body, converted to mass air with 24 lb injectors and matched mass air meter, full MSD ignition, airomotive fpr and professional products fuel rails and harmonic balancer. Rotating assembly was balanced before build and a whole black interior was installed. Car has 245/45/zr16 rear and 245/60/zr16 front with matching Saleen rims. Here is what she still needs:
1. AC pumped down and tested/refilled, I live in FL so it MUST work.
2. She smells rich, really rich, I installed an a/f guage hitched to left 02 sensor computer wire and it says rich when the rpms get up(3500 plus) so that makes no sense, maybe 02s are worn out?
3. pulled codes 33,44,94 and it also said 02s were "sluggish"? hm those are all the codes I can get both running and not running. I suppose thats not bad considering it is the first time I did it all aside from motor assembly, and it is my first stang so its all good...
What do you guys think? Only got 100 miles on her so far so no e.t.'s yet, not till I get 100 or so trouble free, non-rich miles on her...
