    Finished Pics Of My Gt40p Swap

    Hey folks, first of all thanks to everyone who gave advice along the way. Still have hanging idle/stalling issues but am thinking it may be due to an exhaust leak at my pass side flange I haven't had time to screw around with. Remanufactured GT40p heads, tubular GT40 intake, MAC P specific...

    Engine Gt40p Setup Won't Idle

    Hey folks, I swapped on GT40p heads and a tubular GT40 intake (stock cam and stock throttle body) onto my '94 and am having trouble getting it to idle. It runs through the RPMs nicely and feels strong, but as soon as I pull up to a light the idle slowly drops to about 500 rpm and oscillates...

    Engine Valve Cover Vent Hose Necessary?

    Hey folks, doing a head swap and my new valve covers don't have a fill neck with a nipple for the vent hose. Should I look for a cap with a hose or would I be fine deleting it? Doesn't the PCV take care of venting?

    Engine Tubular Gt40 & Gt40p's With Internal Egr

    Hey folks, about a year later than I had hoped but I'm FINALLY getting around to doing my head/intake swap this weekend :) I noticed the GT40p heads I've got have provisions for internal EGR, as does my tubular GT40 manifold, so I was wondering what best way to block it off is. If I don't block...

    convertible motor kicked the bucket. What years are compatible?

    Hey guys, my top motor stopped working tonight :notnice: (the relays still click but the motor doesn't run, seems common), are top components shared from 94 to 04? Couldn't find anything searchbarring. I'm just trying to see if I can broaden my search when comparing prices on a new one. Cheers

    GT40p swap, E7 springs and rockers?

    Hey Folks, I'm going to be starting my gt40p swap in the next couple months. I'm swapping my E7s with a pair of remanufactured P heads, a tubular gt40 intake, and retaining the stock cam. The heads came with springs and stamped rockers, presumably stock gt40p pieces. I know these springs...

    GT40 tubular intake pics

    Hey folks, so I was in the market for a sn95 cobra intake but ended up impulse-buying a polished tubular gt40 on ebay. If you've got any pics of this intake mated to an elbow adapter in our engine bays, please post them up, I'm trying to get an idea of how this is going to look. I may decide to...

    Black Beauty headlights installed, pics inside

    I found it hard to decide on headlights back when I was searching because there wasn't too many pictures around, so I figured I'd post a few of mine :nice: I really liked how they turned out, huuuuge improvement over stock. For those not familiar, the black beauties have a black housing but a...

    Does the finish on the BBK cai last?

    So I've always liked the looks of the BBK cai, and just got my disputed speeding ticket thrown away so I figured I'd treat myself :nice: For those who have one, does the finish hold up over time or does it blemish? How's the overall fit and finish/ quality of the piece?

    Black housing lights or clears... laser red

    Hey guys, I'm torn between the black-housing style headlights (ie: black beauties) and clears. I really dig the smoked look, but I don't plan to go HID anytime soon and I drive at night frequently, so I'm going to keep it between clears or black-housing. What do you think would go best with my...

    Oil burning 5.0, can it be diagnosed without tearing bottom end down?

    So my 5.0 burns oil, about a quart every 600 miles. A little background, the car has 70,000 miles on it, compression is excellent on every cylinder, and one spark plug appeared oil fouled. It only seems to smoke on a hard accel or a downshift, this points to rings but it seems wierd that one...

    Semi-daily driver with trick flow kit

    Hey guys, its that time of year again, the car is off the road for the year and I've saved enough to splurge. I was planning a gt40p oriented setup in the past, but decided to hold off and save a little more for an aluminum setup (think it was a good choice:nice:). In the spring, summer and...

    Tweecer users sharing tunes?

    I was curious, is the tweecer community open to sharing tunes with one another or is this a big no no? It would be cool for a tweecer newbie with say, the trickflow street heat, to use somebody elses trickflow tune as a base tune to work off of so they aren't totally at square one (then, at...

    Aftermarket headunit running through mach 460 amps, how to rewire?

    About a year ago I replaced the stock mach 460 head unit with an alpine, but I believe the stock mach 460 amps are still being used. My volume range goes from 0 to 35 on the head unit, but I never need to turn it up higher than 9 (12 would probably pop the speakers, thats how loud it is), making...

    When I purchased the stang in the fall it had a bad throwout bearing (the signature little squeal when the pedal is not depressed), so I had it replaced. Recently, ive been having an intermittent problem where the clutch pedal begins to vibrate vigourously accompanied by a rattling, squealing...
