    Old Dude Comes Back.

    Hey Stangers! How many of my old buddies are still around? I still drive the '65 TT Fastback although the paint is chipped now it still hauls! I live near Sonora CA now and I am still fooling around with motors and wheels! Eric. AKA TT331FB

    Injector offset or Volts vs adder

    Hi Tuners, It's been a while but I'm back fooling with my TT Vintage Mustang. I want to check my understanding of this function. First, its easy to find charts showing volts vs offset for many injectors. The Tweecer tuning guide suggests values that get smaller as the injecto gets larger...

    Versailles bearing design, rotor flange thickness and tire rub

    Stangers, I am looking at either Mustang Steve’s Cobra brackets or the Explorer setup. Either one requires the stock axel flange, and outer seal to be pressed off. Neither brake kits use a seal in the bearing retainer. Why did Ford use a seal in the bearing retainer? Do modern replacement...

    Fixed bucking problem!

    I have two cars with Tweecers. One is a TT '65 FB and the other is a '94 Vert. I want to share what worked for my Vert. Hopefully, it will work on my TT as well as it does this worse than the Vert. The symtom was bucking/surging just off idle under slight accel or decel conditions. Typical...

    Hurt my '94 Vert on the Dyno :(

    I went to the local dynojet yesterday to try to get a baseline for my mild 331 daily driver. I had a premonition that the day wouldn't end well. First run went 288HP/342T. A/F was 11-12. I took out 10% fuel, and went 297/345 but A/F was unexpectedly 13.5-14. We didn't hear any pinging. We...

    ICS and TPS question

    Hi Tuners, If you disconnect your ICS, will your engine die? If yes, does it slowly die or do it as sson as your ICS disconnects? I am asking this as the refrences I have reviewed say to log your TB air flow this way. They also say that the engine should run with ICS disconnected. How...

    CBAZA Trends timing not following tables

    Hi Tuners, I'm pulling my hair out, and I don't have much left! I am setting timing use base table, altitude and MBT table set to 55, all adders and retards zeroed out. Global adder=0, multiplier=1, load switch 0. I researched Gradys website, reviewed his tune, compared to mine and I can't...

    Chasing idle issue may be a MAF problem?

    Hi Tuners, My car is a '94 T4MO, 331 mild stroker. I'm running a 76MM C&L. My idle is stable except until the fan comes on. Once in a while, the ICS catches the additional load but most of the time, the engine dies. I data logged this and saw that the MAF voltage went up as the RPMs went...

    Lifter preload procedure differences

    Hi Stangers, I am doing some research to get ready for dealing with lifter noise on a new engine I just finished. The symtoms are a noise that comes on about 1000 RPM and goes away at about 2000 rpm. The noise gets less as the engine warms. At best, it's till load enough to cause me...

    Surging idle: What worked for me

    Hi Guys, I recently completed a new engine, for my $600 Vert and it's on the road. It has been running for two weeks now but the idle was so bad, I didn't drive it anywhere. I am running a 331 with GT40Y heads, Cobra intake, 1.72:1 rockers C&L 77MM cold air with 24# calibration and TFS stage...

    Cheap speedo solution for 3.55:1 or larger

    Hey Stangers, If you are running 3.55:1 or larger gears, and a T5, you will not be able to get the right speedo gear to make your speedometer correct. The largest driven gear, for T5s, is 21 teeth and you need a 23 teeth gear to work with the drive gear found in our 94-95 cars...

    Oil level sensor

    Guys, 1. If I use a pan w/o this sensor, how to I keep the light from being on? 2. If I have a replacement sensor, can I install it in a pan that does not already have the hole for it? I don't know if I can tap the pan or what. Eric

    yep, another help me with a cam choice question

    Ok Guys, My big summit order arrived and a made a mistake. Instead of a E303cam, I ordered the B303 cam. I have done some research and I need to decide if this cam will work for me. I am running a 331, 9.7:1 KB forged, GT40Y with a mild port and cleanup, FMS springs good for .650 lift, BBK...

    Fox vs SN95 decel observations

    I have owned four Fox mustangs and now I have my first SN95. All of my Foxes, Auto or stick, would decel as soon as you let off the throttle. The SN95 seems to wait a while before the ICS allows the RPMs to drop. Maybe it's the difference in the tunes used by the A9X family vs the Sn95...

    Clutch not adjusted = cruise control problems

    FYI, My cruise control started working after I adjusted the clutch. I sispect the clutch switch was telling the cruise to be off. Eric

    .030 milled from a GT40Y head OK?

    Stangers, I have a set of Y303 heads that were O-ringed. I want to mill off the O-ring groves and use them on my '94 5.0L. When this is done, the heads will have had .030 milled from them. I would like to know if I can still use these heads and what problems I need to watch out for.

    $600 Vert Saga, Chapt 2

    Hi Mustangers, I had a full day to work on the Vert. I fixed a few things and found some problems, here is the run down. I learned that resetting a 52 air bag code does not clear out the 82 code. After I cleared the 52, the 82 showed up. I decided to clear again and it went away. I guess...

    Need a measurement from a Vert

    I'm trying to figure out how much drop these H&Rs have done to my Vert. Will someone measure a stock Vert for me? Measure from the highest point of the wheel well openings to the pavement, both front and back. I think these H&Rs have dropped me over 2"! I high center on everything...
