    Tech Help: Valve float, not fully closing? (Long)

    I am exceptionally grateful for everyone's contribution to solving the mystery that my shop has given up on. Since the beginning, I suspected something with regard to how the valves are setup, though the ideas about piston size and ring configuration I guess shouldn't be ruled out without...

    Belt Tensioner moves back and forth every minute or so?

    Thump RRR Racing now is selling a billet version that fits your car...I have the 3 bolt version for mine and now have no belt slippage... I also did change the pulley size to a larger one, since they are relatively universal, and it helped add tension by changing the position of the...

    Tech Help: Valve float, not fully closing? (Long)

    Context: • New engine build, 9:1 compression stock bore, stroke • Stock heads remanufactured and ported by a local machine shop subcontracted by the dyno shop assembling the car • Stock cams, springs • New Kenne Bell 2.1L blower, pulleyed for 15-16 psi (Innovators West 10% overdrive/7.5”...

    New fuel system, need advice

    It's not what I am usually looking into, but if I am not mistaken, Aeromotive makes a voltage control unit to alter flow. I honestly don't know how this is resolved with a returnless style system, but there are sure a lot of newer cobras that have had to deal with the issue...

    odd request/ supercharger help

    great ride. I think that the reason why people weren't able to help is that a blower can spin and flow a set amount of air at a set rpm, but the variable is/was how much your engine can flow. Even across mustangs with the same engine, alterations to exhaust and intake flow, and especially cams...

    New fuel system, need advice

    that system is configured, as pictured, as a return style system but it doesn't mean that you have to configure it that way. The only cheaper system is to buy a used 03/04 Cobra fuel tank and run dual internal pumps via a Fiore Precision fuel hat. The 96-98 tank can only run a single pump...

    Going Cams..Valve Springs?

    speaking as a red mustang owner ;) labor for head rebuilds is high because they are complicated heads, with 32 valves and springs. Not to justify it, since I just got taken for $2k to rebuild a set of heads with a stage 1 port. If I had gotten out the door with only 600 in labor I would...

    o/r x install

    midpipes can be a pain due to a lack of clearance for getting to the flange bolts. For me the passenger side took me hours because I couldn't get a wrench on it. Your car may not have the same problem since mine is the SN95 body style but uses relatively interchangeable parts with yours. I...

    gt supercharger ?

    yes, that was 405 at the wheels. Essentially, I wouldn't suggest beyond 9psi of boost from a twin screw without race gas or meth after the blower. 10 with a good tune is pushing it. Conservative boost is 8 psi. I don't know of any reason to do 6 if you can do 8 psi safely. Beyond that it...

    New fuel system, need advice

    One external Walbro 255 will get you to 400hp and a little beyond, to the point where the stock bottom end will frag. If you want to go beyond that, you will need to run a dual external Walbro setup, run Bosch 044 pump(s), or an Aeromotive setup. Checkout Home - Glenn's Performance for some of...

    gt supercharger ?

    you should first decide the type of blower you want, since there are two different primary categories; centrifugal and twin screw/roots style. Kenne Bell (twin screw) will give you full boost nearly off idle, which makes it a torque monster and a fun toy on the street. If you want traction off...

    Kenne Bell Questions...

    11.8:1 is within the realm of what many tuners target. 360hp at 9psi is on the low side but not outside the realm of reality. Throttlebodies are overrated for a KB car under 450hp. More hp is all in the tune. As long as you aren't seeing detonation with the fuel you are using, there...

    Water or Methanol Injection

    gallons per hour will depend upon nozzle size: they are rated for volumetric flow so the answer is probably closer to you than you think. The nozzle sizes are: 60 ml/min, 100 ml/min, 175 ml/min, 225 ml/min, 375 ml/min, and 625 ml/min. My guess is that you would run dual 225ml nozzles or some...

    snow performance meth injection

    FYI, you may want to install the shut-off selenoid, or else the vacuum can draw the meth from the resevoir when the pump is not on...

    Hello all, I am glad to join you. I purchased a healthy red mustang cobra last week and am having a wonderful time at the kenne bell torque buffet. On Wednesday I will be visiting Brad's Custom Auto for a run through of the car. I do need some interior parts to help restore it, like a...
