Hello all,
I bought my old Mustang back (87 LX) from a buddy. Here is what he has had done:
347, Eagle crank, H-beam rods, froged pistons, 10.5-1 cr, Edelb heads machined to accept 202 valves, 1.6 RR's, 70 mm TB, 75mm Bullit Mass Air, XE274hr, 6AL, BBK Shortys, 24lb injectors, 190 pump, 3.73's, swanson "flip chip", maybe 5k miles on this combo.
He got onto it, lost power, parked it, got pissed at all the money he has invested, sold it to me. Oil in the Anti-freeze and water coming out of #4 hole. Drained everything and cranked it over to get all the water out of the cylinder. Has sat for 3 weeks like this. Do you think it has hurt the engine to sit like this? I am going to have the heads checked while it is apart, but didn't know if I should pull it and replace bearings and such. Any thoughts would be great.
Also, 30lb injectors be a better choice for this combo?
Sorry for the long first post....I will return the favor and help someone else..honest
