I just got your PM, thanks for the shout, expect to hear from me

You don't happen to know a guy in roanoke -works at a fleet shop, I think- building a blown foxbody, do you? I bought his old street burner and he mentioned a guy in bedford that does tuning, can't imagine there's too many of you

There's an easy solution to that issue. Add an extra ground cable from the upper intake to the firewall. You'll be amazed at the difference.
