Hey guys, here's the oddities with my 89 GT vert.
Not many mods that affect the drivetrain, mostly suspension. Just (mm FMS wires, Crane coil,
It cranks fine, idles nice and smoothly, runs very smoothly, but.....
It tends to bog a lot below 2000, and when you shift gears, (think major turbo lag...) and it's as if you're asking the world of it to go over 3500. It's really only comfortable between 2000-2800.
Anytime you try to get into it, or accelerate while driving there's a sound like a vacuum leak (doesn't have one) or more like an exhast leak on the headers. (replaced a few times, high quality gaskets.)
Often has a "gasey" smell when you stop. Usually this is noticable if the vents are on.
Dunno it this means anything, but the car has Hooker Super Comp shorties, Mac cat H-Pipe, and Cobra/LX style Flowmaster "American Thunder" catback. BUT, it's very quiet at all RPMS, except between 2000-2800 which is where is is on the freeway (droning incredibly loudly and driving me insane....)
Basically, it's a very reliable and smooth running 5.0, just incredibly unresponsive.....
HELP! any ideas guys? I know it's just something minor, it just feels like something is off and hold ing it back!
