    Overheating With Ac On

    Its not as easy as people think, basic little things you can do are pretty easy but to do it right you need a dyno ortherwise you must invest in a wideband o2 and log than as well to make any progress. The ford eec strategy is literally as thick as a bible and alot to take in. Also I would opt...

    Engine to Bell Housing Block Plate

    Has anyone run their car without a block plate in between the engine and bell housing? Pretty much tore the car down to redo the rear main seal and check to see what was causing excessive chatter on the clutch. Sure enough it wasn't the clutch itself rather my flywheel weight actually wore a...

    Car is running cold... been through 2 stats. Help?

    sure your sending unit is working right or the gauge is accurate. I actually have the opposite problem I run overheating under load or cruise. I would verify temps some other way like an IR heat probe gun. Could use under drive pulleys to slow the water pump hence making it run hotter and not...

    Manual steering, do you regret it?

    Pretty much my brother and I have identical cars except for he's drag setup (welds/skinneys, manual rack, k-member, etc) mine I designed to be a street setup (ac/all emissions/power steering). The comparison is night and day in terms of drive ability. I absolutely hate driving his car as stated...

    Bad Fuel Pump: Any suggestions before buying a new one?

    Personally I would get the 255lph hp pump since we have return type systems so no fuel is ever wasted going smaller can only hurt i the future.

    Intake Manifolds

    For the budget racer the typhoon intake is the best bang for the buck out there, I still have mine and it's still going strong, anyone that's ever owned one knows their actually good intakes to port despite the casting flash and clean up work, the runners are actually pretty thick, but it gets a...

    MAC or Flowmaster?

    Hmm interesting I was acutally going to go with a new set of mac 3" because I thought they would be easier to install and read they fit well. I know over the years I went through sets of there headers, prochamber mid pipe, offroad pipes and the fit was middle of the road.

    When to ditch the PCV system?

    Yeah I'm in the same boat I researched this topic alot and there are handfulls of different methods but all of them are usually generalized in the sense they work or do to some extent but with side effects. I read of people running -10, or -12 weld bungs with stainless hose to a breather catch...

    When to ditch the PCV system?

    Never really thought about it but what would be a good threshold to switch over to a catch can evac setup versus the stock pcv system. Is it applicable with low boost setups 7lbs or less, does it apply for larger cubes or just higher spinning motors? I know in my case I'm looking to go this...

    QuarterHorse vs. AMS PMS

    This guy is 100% right in his accessment. I've been playing around with tuning for a couple of years now and you really need to be deticated to learning it. I've read the ford eec epc manual about 20 times, the aem tuning guide, both tweecer and eec analyzer/be manuals and follow all the forums...

    TWEECER NEED?

    I run the tweecer rt with eec and bin analyzer as well. The latest one is the moates quarter horse which seems to be a nicer option as you can change parameters on the fly without having to shut the car down and back on. Either way I reccomend going with eec and binary editor over the free cal...
