    checking pushord length with hydraulic lifters

    How do you guys check what length you need? I have the pushrod length checker tool but doesn't the lifter need some preload so would I need to buy pushrods a little longer than what I measured or would buying pushrods at the measurement I take be fine?

    I just bought a set of gt40p heads today for my 86 mustang at a bargain! I'm wondering what cams are a good choice for the gt40p? Is it possible to keep the stock valvetrain and get something with better lift over stock? I know I have the flat top pistons and I'm going to get that addressed...

    My car is running very rich

    Like the title says, it's running rich. The car also misfires at idle and cruising. I hooked up a scope to look at my 02 sensors and both banks read the same. The sensors weren't switching at all. Both of them had the same readings. They're 3 wire sensors and I'm not sure which one is the...

    controlling aftermarket fuel pumps.

    I was wondering on these high flow fuel pumps does or has anyone used a rheostat or some other form of resistor to control the flow rate of the pump? I was thinking these high flow models on stock cars will create more evap emissions and heat up the gas more by continuously flowing excess...

    I'm just wondering. I'm taking my car to my school's shop. I've been having serious braking problems and if we diagnose the problem to be the master cylinder I'd like to buy an 87-93 master cylinder since my shop uses a power bleeder that only works with the modern nylon/plastic reservoirs.

    turbocharging a speed density Mustang

    I was wondering if anyone has turbocharged a speed density 5.0. Would it be possible to remap the ecm with a moates system and function with a turbo? Would the map sensor still work fine under boost? I know systems like megasquirt work just fine with a map sensor under boost. How well would...
