I just had a Ford Racing Gt-40 crate motor with b-cam installed in my 93 Gt Mustang. I'm running C&L 76mm MAF with 24lb injectors. My car is street legal, not a daily driver, used for drag racing mainly.
Do these settings look good?
I have my timing at 15 advanced, fuel pressure at 39, and my idle at about 800rpms.
Should I set the idle at stock setting or maybe higher like around 1000 rpms?

I also had a Temec 330 torque T-5 installed. Break in is 500 miles. Dexron III transmission fluid is reccomended.
What should I run after break in? I had synthetic Royal Purple trans fluid in my old T-5 and it shifted really smooth. I was thinking of going with Red Line Synthetic, or should I just stick with the Dexron III.

Thanks for the help
 
Each combo is different but you're right in the ballpark. :nice:

For the trans, I couldn't help ya. I'd go with Tremec's recommendation on the fluid, or that of Hanlon, D&D/Walsh Racing, etc for the best fluid for the task (lots of fluids will work, but some are not as correct as others).

Good luck.
