well here....http://s163.photobucket.com/albums/t302/88Mustang302/?action=view&current=885.flv

we cut the mufflers off...and its still quite... catz must me clogged...gonna take them off next....

it will idel perfect...after a couple mins of running but if you go to rev it....it wants to die....

but its running better then it was...still dose not like to be revved...i think were gonna have to pull the injectors and get some new ones...

would putting 24lb injectors into my 5.0 be ok? i know there more then i need now but i can pick up a set for 100 that was only used for 1,000 miles...?

you can spend 100 dollars elsewhere and the car and have a bigger effect on the car wholey.. you plain dont need injectors that big.. if you werent so far away i'd hook you up with a catless H pipe

I do things differently, if it were me i would pull the ngine and clean everything. dissamble the engine too. Of course not everyone can pull an engine , tear it down, and put it back together. but hey, you gotta start somewhere. You are going to have a lot of fun restoring it. best of luck to u
