    Rocker arm issues

    Once all 16 rocker arms are installed to “snug” turn the engine over, clockwise to top dead center (the timing pointer pointed at “0” on the crankshaft) and check the number one cylinder intake and exhaust valves. They should both be closed (you should be able to spin the pushrod). If they are...

    NOS Back Fire Issues. Any Ideas on amount of Retard????

    I would be concerned where you base timing is set at. Also you don't want the N2o to engage below 3k rpms.

    Pulled plugs, 1 is oil fouled

    Not to be the bearer of bad news, but to me this sounds like a valve seal. Basically when the car sits, the oil leaks down into the cylinder. Fouling the plug. When the car is running there is not a substantial amount of oil dripping down, so you will not see it burning. Another possibility...

    Cam Timing Question

    Not trying to add fuel to your fire, but I can't believe that this is still going on. I read this thread a few weeks back. Sorry to hear about all this. Receipt or not, they should be willing to take back a faulty BBK part. Maybe its time you provide them with a receipt. wink,wink.

    The best way to make your stock 5.0 fast?

    Nice work, let me see if I can add anything else for you. You need to find about 40 more horses to get to the 12's but your close. 1) Short Belt ? - I would pull the A/C and Smog stuff this will shorten the belt. If you just drive this car to the track and don't have to pull into parking...

    taking stripes off

    They do make exact fit stickers, I would check CJ Pony Parts or LRS. I would think they may have white, I will see if I can find them for you. EDIT: For the price this sounds good to me. http://www.latemodelrestoration.com/products/1987-93-Mustang-Body-Stripes

    1.7 roller and springs

    With the 1.6's your total lift will be as advertised - .498. Going from 1.7 to 1.6 will increase PTV clearance. Stock springs can handle up to .500 lift so you will be running on the edge of tolerance.

    Mustang Cowl Removal

    How to drain fuel tank

    If you jumper the relay any junk in the tank is going to run thru your pump and possible clog your pump and sock. Just get a siphon.

    trying to get my motor running

    Yes 100% grounds. You need to get all grounds taken care of or it will never run. You would benefit from a $20 Chilton manual, that will help you immensely.
