    1 Wire Alternator for a fox fit?

    I'm looking for a nice chrome or polished 1 wire alternator. I can find them pretty easily for a fox body car, but not for the 94-95's. Do the fox alternators have the mounting holes in the same location as ours? Since it will be a 1 wire setup there should be no issue with the plugs...

    The old car held together - DYNO NUMBERS

    My fuel pressure regulator seemed to have changed, so I set it back to 39, and have been watching it. Today I went back to the dyno to make sure my a/f ratio was right. I was glad I went. On the first pull, the ratio went up above 13:1 at 5000 rpms. After some tuning and dialing in, I...

    Issues with the adjustable fuel pressure regulator

    Has anyone had issues with their AFPR? I have a BBK one, and I just noticed a few days ago that the pressure looked a little low when I was driving around. So I unplugged the vac line, and the pressure only came up to 30PSI. :notnice: I bumped it up to 39, and got a mechanical gauge for...

    Made it to the drag strip for the first time this year.

    We decided to head to the drag strip this weekend. Drove for 3.5 hours to Tri-state Raceway in Earlville, Iowa. There weren't too many cars there, but it was a good time. I just got some new street wheels and tires for the car, so I figured I would just run those, and not put my other MT ET...

    Snapped a few pictures of my car after the upgrades

    I took the car out and got a couple pics before it started to rain, then I got a couple of pictures while it was raining. I've had the car for going on 4 years, and this is the first year I did something for the exterior, so I thought I would show it off a little. So far the upgrades for...

    How does my clutch and Flywheel look?

    Well I took everything out of the car since I am replacing my bellhousing, and I think the clutch and flywheel look OK to me, but I don't have too much experience on how this stuff should look. So here is the flywheel. There are some shallow groves in it down the center. Here is a...

    Wrong bellhousing or do I need a spacer?

    Hey Guys, A while ago I got a new Mcleod SFI bellhousing from D&D Performance for my T-56. Well I am finally getting around to installing it, and the new one is about an inch shorter than the one that was in there. From the Mcleod website it looks like I am going to need a spacer, but I am...

    Will this shorter belt routing work? (pic inside)

    I am looking to bypass my smog and A/C pulleys with a shorter belt. If I route the belt the way that I have it in the picture, will I have enough contact with the crank pulley? It is only going to be driving the alternator, and the power steering pump. I have an electric water pump, so I...

    Anybody know why my balancer did this? (pics)

    Last week I was adjusting my idle, and I noticed that my HB was wobling a little. There was no vibration or anything, but I decided it would be best to replace it. I put a stock replacement on it figuring that would be OK at least for a while, I put it in and all was well. No viration, and no...

    clutch fork cover for t56

    I just swapped my AODE out for a Viper spec T56. All is looking good so far, but I need a cover for the clutch fork. I've looked at a few places that sell them. (50resto.com and mustangsunlimited.com) They list a clutch cover for years up to 93, then another one for 96 and up. Nothing for...

    Went to the dyno with the new combo.

    Well I finally got to the dyno with my new upgrades. (TW heads, stage 1 cam, intake, Vortech) With the TwEECer I was able to get a/f to about 12 to 1 for the most part. It drops to about 11.5 to 1 at higher rpms. I still have the stock ignition on it, and it appears I was blowing out the...
