    just one word...QUICK....I placed an order for a timing cover at like 6pm last night and it was at my door waiting before I even got up this morning. Now granted I slept until 11am this morning, but still wow :nice:

    Carb fuel inlet question *pic inside*

    87 Mustang GT with a double pumper carb I have this fuel line kit and was needing to know...teflon tape on the threads going into the carb or no? Ive read mixed answers about it some saying yes for the good seal, some saying no because teflon tape makes it too easy to overtighten and tape...

    Insane fuel pressure??

    Took off a dead holley blue fuel pump on my 87GT carbed Installed a Carter P4070 which is supposed to be like 6psi MAX, well it knocked the needle off its seat on the carb, pegged my fuel pressure gauge (over 15psi) and flooded out the engine. Pump says 4070 on it :scratch: When I try to...

    Fuel Pressure Problem *Video Inside*

    87 Mustang GT carbed Holley Blue electric pump Video pretty much says it all. When the pressure goes from the preset 6.5psi down to 2 or 3, Im met with near silence from the pump. (and holley blue pumps are loud normally) Then it bumps back up to 6, pump makes normal sound, then back down to...

    Fuel filter recommendation??

    87 GT carbed...right now I have this filter and Im thinking it might be too small because my FPR is set at 6psi and sometimes it will creep up to 9 and back down to 6 this is the one I have right now...maybe too small causing a restriction?

    Vacuum Advance??

    For any of you who is carbed...do you have your distributor vacuum advance connected to the carb metering block port or full manifold vacuum or just capped off? Ive heard that on cars with a bigger cam they benefit more from full manifold vacuum rather than ported carb vacuum, true or no? thanks

    Bad fuel pressure regulator??

    87 Mustang GT carbed...noticed my exhaust started smelling rich and I checked the fuel pressure (holley fpr has a gauge threaded in) and it was at 10psi :jaw: Last I set it was at 6psi and when I went to lower it, it wasnt loose like it had backed the screw out or anything :shrug: When it...

    Fair price...tailpipe addition??

    Tired of the fumes and interior drone....I dont have a welder, so what would be a fair price to have a local muffler shop hack off my turn downs and weld in these tailpipes? I will have the new tailpipes with me when I go which already have the hanger bar and I bought new hangers/isolators to...

    Electric Fuel pump problem??

    I have a Holley Blue electric fuel pump wired in with a 7.5A fuse per the instructions. After replacing that fuse about 7 times I got sick of it and wired it straight in on a toggle. Heres the weird part. For the past 2 mornings on the way to work it blows the fuse at the same place at the same...

    What does your smaller red wire pigtailed off the battery positive go to? I cant seem to get mine traced out. Mine just seems to go into some relay or something and split off 2 ways :shrug: thanks

    AFM tappet tools

    Just got done swapping out my cam and I'll have to say...these things were a good time saver. Even though I had them I started to worry about dropping a lifter and almost took off my lower anyways but I thought to myself they wouldnt sell those things if they were problematic. Just dropped them...
