    Fastest Totally Stock Engine Fox

    To capri debris I always wanted an 85 capri bubble back. My first car wa a crap brown 79 hatch 4cyl. Motor broke so I got a Junkyard 302 and a C-4, bought the mechanic manual and made the switch. Learned as I went. Funny thing was my older brother's friend still had his 82 capri rs sitting...

    Fastest Totally Stock Engine Fox

    ET Yup, I have a couple but the 89 vert is all motor. 612 RWHP, cost me a ton of $ to build a straight motor that strong.

    heads and cam

    To Mikepotts j/k, btw... ive never had problems clearing an X cam with stock heads and pistons (uncut). just dont use 1.7 rockers with it! you can use either a B or E with 1.7's with no trouble I suggested the flycutting to be safe. I had the X and still flycut. 542 lift... isn't that...

    EFI to CARB. Any input welcome

    1/4 mile has it right he said This has been tested by many mags over the years; taking a stock EFI motor and putting an intake/carb on it to see the differences. I have yet to see one that did not produce more power with a carb. I agree. My friend had an 82 stock heads, small 512 flat...

    Fastest Totally Stock Engine Fox

    Anyone out there have any times comparable to this? Not my car so I'm not bragging. Just wondering how fast people have gone with totally untouched stock motor. These were only mods allowed in his class of racing. untouched motor battery in trunk open headers any rear end any...

    Horsepower guess?

    Heads To me I think they are very important and worth spending money on. I got TFS High Ports CNC ported to the max from Rick at Fox Lake Performance. 2.08 intake 1.65 exhaust. Almost $4000 on heads alone. I figured only buy them once, they are good for 8's if I ever went nuts with the car.

    Blast from the Past... Top 12 Mustangs of all time

    To Gearbanger 101 That cougar probably weighs 3600 3700lbs so High 12's on the street is pretty good man. I like your car, it's different and thats cool. I've been trying to find pics of a 1982 2 door red ford fairmont that J & P Performance had years ago. I even emailed Joe through facebook...

    head selection?

    Heads They used to make the TFS High Ports in cast iron. I don't think they do anymore but they were a great deal for the money

    Blast from the Past... Top 12 Mustangs of all time

    To Gearbanger 101 I noticed you have a cougar, cool. Joes brother Paul had one just like yours. They used to duke it out at the track. Cougar used to run 10.80's @ 128. Had another friend with a supercoupe that was cool too.

    Horsepower guess?

    To mikepotts I had almost the exact same setup as yours at one point and it was great. I don't doubt your HP. I just said the carb was a little small in comparison to the heads, I didn't mean it wasn't good. Assuming the heads are nothing special with 78cc chambers that will lower...

    head selection?

    Heads Your only going to buy them once, so I'd save up and buy TFS High Port. The originals that started it all. Raised exhaust ports, don't even need to port them they flow like mad....

    heads and cam

    Cam If your going to notch the pistons, go for the Z303 cam

    Horsepower guess?

    have to agree with Tanner91 Really strange combo....... Is it still a 302 with 351 heads? What year are the heads? What's the duration of the cam at 050? Big lift cam with dual plane intake and small carb and shorties? I'll assume the heads are stock, off of anything with huge...

    Blast from the Past... Top 12 Mustangs of all time

    To Gearbanger 101 About Joe DaSilva his son is racing now. I haven't talked to joe in a while but I've known him since he started his shop in 1989. I remember his son about 3 or 4 running all over the place. Funny thing, before I met him I was at the track in my 79 I converted to 5.0 from...

    EFI to CARB. Any input welcome

    Smog testing I don't have much to add but the distibutor gear for the cam has to be changed that was already said. I had a hell of a time finding mine. I have one thing to say about emissions? Everyone say you cant have this cam, or these heads or whatever because you wont pass smog test...
