    Stock Valve Covers

    I have TFS heads & intake with Ford Motorsport 1.6 RR and the stock valve covers will not fit. The actually don't even come close. I just recently ordered a set of valve covers from Anderson Ford Motorsport that will clear them and they look nice if that's any help.

    Valve cover clearance problem

    I do have the thicker rubber gasket on there although it seems as though I would need a little more room even if I went with a thinner gasket. Here are the pics of how close the 65mm throttle body is (which is fine) and the power pipe rubber boot that hits. The 70mm throttle body only sits down...

    Valve cover clearance problem

    I have the Trick Flow "street burner" intake with a 1" spacer. The throttle body is a edelbrock/BBK and it's linkage just hits the valve cover. If I had another 1/2", it would be fine although the power pipe boot still hits the valve cover. I had to put the 65mm throttle body back on until I...

    Need Help Diagnosing Engine Problem (Video Included)

    Do you have any drivability problems? Any loss of power? It's hard to tell what the noise is from the video, but have you checked the vacuum hose going to the smog pump?

    TWEECER VS. FMU??

    I actually just had the same response. I just completed putting on a S-trim w/42lb inj. and was looking to get it dyno-tuned and have a chip burned for it. I called a very reputable Mustang shop and was told to NOT ditch the FMU and MSD 6btm. He told me he has lots of customers out there running...

    Radiator preference

    Thanks for the info guys - I just ordered the FMS aluminum. It was more in my price range - $250. I just hope there's enough clearance between my electric fan and the pulleys because of the thicker radiator.

    Radiator preference

    I just supercharged my stang and I now need a good radiator. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is it worth it to buy a Fluidyne, Be Cool, or Griffin radiator? I know the cooler the engine runs - the better, but these radiators are around $500 - $600. Are there any other radiators out there that...

    Vortech installation problem

    Thanks for your help guys. I ended up cutting the end of the bolt and it only touches the water neck housing a little bit. I think it will be fine. I bought the Vortech kit used so I'm guessing the seller didn't supply the shorter bolt.

    Vortech installation problem

    I'm in the middle of installing a Vortech S-trim on my 5.0 and I'm having a clearance problem where the belt tensioner bolt/nut is hitting the water neck housing on the lower intake. Am I missing something? Has anyone had this problem before?

    Injectors/mass air with S-trim

    I recently bought an S-trim for my '91 5.0 and was wondering what size injectors and mass air I should go with. It seems most go with the 42lb and 80mm, so is this sufficient? What about the lightning 90mm mass air? Engine Mods include Anderson N-31 cam, TFS heads ported and polished, TFS intake.
