    What Will It Make.....

    No boost here. Think I will just stick with the stock cam and save the dough. Now the question is 1.6 or 1.7 Rockers? Any real advantage to that extra .1?

    Guys with SVO calipers on a fox need some input

    Ok, thats what I figured. I think ill try it and see and then maybe move to the booster. I would think it would give a decent improvement in braking.

    Running Rich issue

    If you had that much fuel in your oil then you probably washed the rings. The fuel washes away the oil in the cylinder and damages the piston rings. If you were smoking as much as you say then you may need to check those rings out.

    Having trouble with my 5.0!!

    I would have the battery tested and starter tested. A starter with a motor that is binding when turning will cause a slow or no starting condition. If your not comforatble with doing this yourself than most auto parts stores will check the battery and starter load test.

    Sure it could be done, its not gonna be a simple as drill and bolt there are angles involved and if you drill the taper out you will have to no play at all in the knuckle. I trust a taper more then a straight through design anyday. You would be messing with the steering system however I would...

    loss of power over 3k RPMS

    Check TFI as said above. If you have good power then falls at 3000 rpms then you more than likely have an ignition issue like the TFI a compression check is not the next logical step.

    factory spec oil pressure is 40-60psi when hot at 2000 rpms. You should check with a mechinal guage and if it is still low than you may have an issue thats pretty low.

    5.0 Mustang - Battery drains while running

    What does your amp meter in the car say when its running? If your battery is very old then it may not be able to hold a charge anymore and may discharge due to heat after driving for a while.

    Was your stock Master cyl. leaking? It may of leaked into the booster, have you tried to bleed your brakes, it could be air in the lines.
