    Is mixing 1.7 and 1.6 RR with an E cam a good idea?

    hear me out... have a set of 1.6 and a set of 1.7 RRs along with an E cam sitting around. With a set of GT40s (not P) and a gasket matched cobra intake.. would there an advantage that outweighs any disadvantage, to running a 1.7 on the exhaust and a 1.6 on the intake. This would take the...

    Mixing RR ratios? Worth it?

    Here's another one I have been chewing on. I am running an E cam that I had laying around. I also have an extra set of 1.7 RR along with a set of 1.6 (both the blue FordMotorsports). I've always liked running the 1.6 to keep the geometry the way Ford intended.. but would it hut to run the...

    will 1.6 SVO RR fit under 94/95 valve covers

    I picked up a set of GT40 irons and some SVO 1.6 ped mount roller rockers.. before I get in there and realize there is an issue, will these rockers fit under the 94/95 stock valve covers with just a E cam? I am running a fox body intake, so theoretically, I could just throw on some fox valve...

    Stock 86-93 HO intake to 94/95 issues

    I picked up an extrude honed stock 5.0 fox body intake to put on my "low buck" 95 project. I'm getting an elbow adaptor, will I need to do anthing else with the internal Fox EGR system?

    Where are ABS speed sensors on 94-95?

    I've picked up a down and out '95 from a friend that needed some help. The ABS started acting up when he got the car back from the shop that put his gears in. Do the 94-95 use the speed sensor/ABS rings pressed onto the end of the axles (near the brake) or do they use a "tone ring" inside the...

    Help with UPR catted X pipe

    I picked up a slightly used cheap UPR catted X pipe for my '02 GT. When I search the forums, I read that there is a small extension (?) and a metal gasket (for the passenger side exhaust manifold) that is supposed to be used to not have any leaks. When it arrived I got the 2 pieces of the X...
