    Need advice/opinions on my scenario

    I cant go to a taller slick. You actually think my MPH will go down... I am not sure i completely buy into that just because with the 4.10's I am no longer accelerating the last couple hundread feet due to bouncing the rev limiter that entire time. Also i was thinking that with the 3.55's I...

    Help with my blown TBird

    Blk91- The motor had the original head gaskets that come on ford gt-40 crate engines, along with factory head bolts. The motor only has 7500mi on it, I'd say about 150mi with the charger. I was told to use fel-pro 1011-2 now. Also, I can remember about 1 yr ago I had a little issue with my...

    Help with my blown TBird

    Ok, here's my new #'s with the charger. I got a 12.2 @ 117, not too shabby. But I have another problem, I blew the head gasket on the passenger bank, blowing coolant into the cylinder. I am a little confused as to why though. When I went for a dyno tune everything went well a/f is between...

    New #'s in

    Not really shifting slow, consider that i am in a tbird though, which is at least a couple hundred pounds heavier than a mustang. And according to your sig you weigh in a 3200+ lbs, mine is like 3650-3700lbs.

    New #'s in

    i am planning on a re-tune once the clutch is done.. The clutch is not slipping bad at all, in fact to most people they cant even tell. Once the clutch got nice and warm it did start grabbing really good at the dyno too. As far as the et, I was pulling 13.1 @106 without the charger...

    What do ya think of my project tbird ??

    Mike- I do get a little bounce when I am slowing to a stop with the speedo, but i think its just the ford sensor in the tranny. I replaced it once in the begining when I had the factory speedo because of the same problem. Other than that it work very nicely...

    What do ya think of my project tbird ??

    Yes the speedo is electric. And yes it will read from the factory T-5 sensor. It just counts the pulses for 2 miles and converts to MPH.. You actually put it into a calibrate mode, drive the car a measured 2 mile distance, then voila, done. Any gear/tire changes and you got an accurate...
