Hey guys, I've got a build going and I'm at the point where I need to buy a throttle body and all related components. I'm going to get the 75mm accufab and egr spacer (I'm not using egr). I installed the terminator x 937f kit. Should I stick with motorcraft iac and tps? Or do something different that is more terminator friendly? (If such things exist)

Gm iac , I haven’t tried to mess with the ford again since the early years where no one could it get to respond like it should. There is plenty of info now out there but every car I do gets a gm and I have had no issues with it

TPs you use your motorcraft and either make an adapter and use the pigtail from your stock harness for the iac or change it to a gm weather pack on the TPs and call it a day. I’ve done it both ways

I am going to post this here:

Would be cool to see somebody here, Win it though :D

Looking at this electronic dash makes me think of how cool the cable driven tachs were in C2 corvettes.....

Thank you very much! When you say GM IAC... what part number do you use? I imagine there are several.
I also came across this. See attached.

The none f kits are terminated for GM sensors aren't they? That's like almost free in a you pull it. Kind of depends on what your running and how you want to run it.. If your going hi ram intake I wouldn't bother with an f kit since you can get those with the LS flange top and just run a cheap billet 92 or 102 LS style manual t body,. Only difference between those and the Holley branded ones are a $4 radial shaft seal and the engraving. I think someone figured out a cap/ adapter to run the TFI distributer on an 8.2 with those to using an AMC cap and rotor but don't remember the exact details.

The 937 f kit from Holley I did still had gm stuff except the iac which I re ran for a gm anyway. Usually I use the universal harness. The f harness did make it easier not having to move around the sensor wires to reach

Stick with OEM TPS, but some people use a GM IAC with an Accufab adapter I’m thinking of making that change when I take my Fox to my tuner.
