    Pinion Angle and Lowering

    Just index it 90* at a time until it smooths out. PITA, but you gotta do it. If the driveshaft is unknown to you too, it might need balancing. Look and make sure the balance weight is still on it up near the transmission yoke. Try indexing the driveshaft first.

    What wrong with this.. (pics)mustang

    Just curious, did you pull any of the valves out of the heads at any point? Even though you torque the rocker nut to a certain value, you still have to shim under the pedestal to get the correct valve lash. I'm sure someone has already taken the time to detail the procedure on here. I'd try a...

    What wrong with this.. (pics)mustang

    Did you use a compression tester that screwed into the spark plug hole, or was it the type you have to force up against the head by hand? No real problem on mixing roller valvetrain parts. Ideally you want to keep everything separated, but it's not a live or die thing. I've played mix and...

    Pinion Angle and Lowering

    Two u-joints combined are capable of forming compound angles. That means unless you have a bad u-joint, pinion angle is not your problem. I would index the driveshaft on the pinion flange to fix your imbalance issue. You're supposed to mark the way the driveshaft is oriented to the flange...

    Line-Lock Installed

    Just curious, but you went in before the proportion valve? For some reason, I was thinking you would need to go in after. Looks good!

    Battery/electrical question

    LOL, I didn't tell him to do it, but you could if you had to. Once the alternator has been excited, it continues to run on it's own. That is my understanding anyway.

    who is running M/T ET drag radials?

    I can't vouch for size, but these tires are the ticket. Hook like a slick at the track for me. Seems a shame to build all that power only to spin the tires. Don't go cheap on the skins. These tires will put a smile on your face!!! Best thing I've run next to an ET Street.

    Battery/electrical question

    What's more likely, that one or both be bad? A bad alternator would cause all of his symptoms, while a bad battery would only do half of what he's experiencing. The law of averages says it's the alternator. That's Einstein talking there, not me. :D Nice chat, TTYL

    best traction setup for the street/strip. what do you run?

    I too have a 1.560 60' best (8th time ever to run this car down the track) on a totally stock '94 suspension. But, I spent the day debating it on Corral. You're welcome to take a look at a link to the post. Good luck! http://www.corral.net/forums/showthread.php?t=778617

    Engine Cuts out when warm.

    A carburetor makes it go away like - snap- J/K, good luck getting it sorted out.

    Battery/electrical question

    The battery is down because the bad alternator hasn't charged it. That's why it dies when the jumpers are removed. Even with a bad battery, the alternator "should" keep the car running after it's started. You should even be able to remove the battery after the car is started. Do I win a...

    :WERD: Make sure it's turning in the right direction too. Should be blowing air onto the motor

    switching from efi to carb

    And there lies the problem. Most guy's are going to take their car to a tuner because they can't do it themselves. You buy into someone else's idea of what you car should be, or do. Granted there are some knowledgable people on here, but the average guy can't do it himself. I think I need an...

    switching from efi to carb

    Orrr..........you could pull all that EFI crap off and throw a carb on it. :D J/K, I'd try to make what you have work. Took mine to several tuners and it would never stay right. Oh happy day, when all that stuff was laying on the garage floor!!! :nice:

    running in the mid 1.5's on stock suspension

    There’s no doubt that at some point you need to upgrade. I’m just not certain when that is. I think allot of guy’s start with the suspension, and believe they’re getting results. More than likely though, any gains they’re seeing are probably a result of seat time more than anything else. The...

    running in the mid 1.5's on stock suspension

    Might be the driver and not the car??? My son and I both run this car. My best 60' is a full .15 better then his. He mashes the pedal to the floor just like I do when the light drops. The individual has allot to do with the 60'. Having said that, the car has to be able to stand up to it.
