    How to go back to EFI?

    Little history, My 88 was a 4-banger at birth. After I blew that up I put in a 351W, carbed. Yanked most of the BS that was needed for the Speed Density set-up (most of the plugs are on the main harness, but no fuel injection harness is left. What is the bare minimum stuff I need to go...

    4 cyl 8.8 rear conversion brake help?

    You could have swapped the metal lines on the 8.8 with the 7.5 lines and you could get a hose from a 4cyl anywhere. -That is the route I took.

    Converting interiors

    Did you pulll the parts from the donor car or were they already out? Curious to find out how the coupes had the shoulder belts bolted in. If you don't end up using them let me know.

    Converting interiors

    Stang89, did you add the rear 3 point belts to the swap, or did you just use lap belts instead? I want to put the shoulder belts in the back of my 88 Coupe so the kids can start riding in the back.

    Do You Insulate a New Fiberglass Hood??

    I had an 80 Camaro with a fiberglass L-88 hood that came off on me while doing 60 on a rural highway. Scared the living crap out of me, and ripped the oil line out of the block which sprayed everywhere. Had pins without cables at the time and someone had stolen them, so I would recommend cables...

    Do You Insulate a New Fiberglass Hood??

    There was a large orange sticker on mine that said to leave it out in the sun for a few days before painting.

    Help with grounding...bolt size question

    Thanks for all the info J. The only thing that I am missing from the first diagram is the ground all the way up to the block from the rear. I have two grounds from the battery, one to the chasis and one to the frame in the rear. In the front I have one from the block to the chasis and one to the...

    Yep! I thought that is just my problem, but I have heard of alot of other people that have no issues like this with the battery in the trunk.

    Looking good!! How do you like the headlights? I was thinking of getting some of the new ones like that.

    Help with grounding...bolt size question

    I may just run one to the front of the car. In all the years that I have been working on cars I was told that the ground should be kept to a maximum length of three feel, so I am leary of running a ground all the way to the front of the car. Is it safe to run the ground under the car? I have...

    Help with grounding...bolt size question

    Got a chance to change the cables in the front, but the voltage is still bouncing a little, above 2500 rpms?? Moves a little at idle but not much, when the gas is goosed, there is a spike in the voltage and then it quickly drops to normal. Gonna check the grounds in the trunk and rear frame...

    There was also one done in a blue. Can't remember the stangnet name though....I was dissapointed because that was the scheme that I was going for originally.

    4 to 5 lug ?

    I wouldn't go the t-bird route anyway. I had a hard time finding a decent selection of rims for my Thunderchicken.....until the wife totalled it anyway.

    Help with grounding...bolt size question

    Didn't get a chance to play with it today. Maybe tomorrow. Found a bolt that will fit all the way through the hole I was trying to mount it to. Now I need a nut, and I should have better ground in the engine compartment. I'll let everyone know how it turns out when I get finished.

    Help with grounding...bolt size question

    Thanks J. I tried a numerous amount of bolts and couldn't find one to fit. I was trying on the passenger side of the bloc, probably in a similar spot. The block probably does have paint on it behind the brackets. I gave up a few hours ago and decided to relay the bricks in the back yard...

    Help with grounding...bolt size question

    The grounds on my 351W at the power steering/ac brackets isn't doing the job. I think because of all the paint and the aluminum the ground sucks so I am switching to the passenger side where there is a tab on the block right below the head, and one on the front of the engine, toward the timing...

    Undercarriage Pic request.....

    I'd like to see pics as well. I had a custom exhaust on mine and am doing a BBk H with Pypes catback. I want to install the hangar to keep the exhaust tight against the chasis, but I cant get it to fit around the 3550 the way that is described above.
