    Mach 1 1st Dyno Pull

    sorry to threat hijack...... you definately need to get to a mustang dyno or a dynojet. Unfortunately unless you're not driving it all hard, with DR's only running high 13's... those dyno numbers do sorta correspond with your ET and trap.

    Mach 1 1st Dyno Pull

    CAI, roller rockers, and exhaust. Thats IT. Stock heads, cam, intake, TB, PCM, everything. Its an 89 motor from the junkyard with about 100k on it. I got a good one. And yes, dynojet. Its on the printout. Heres an overlay of CAI, no intake, and a pull to 6,000. when you see the power fall...

    Mach 1 1st Dyno Pull

    explanation: if it were a GT that was turned into a mach 1 clone (like tons of people do) than maybe those are more appropriate dyno numbers <--- sarcastic remark But just for comparison, the horsepower curve and numbers are very similair to my 5.0 when it was NA and thats really strange...

    injectors maxing out

    ding ding ding we have a winner! The stock fuel lines cant support 42's never mind bigger. If you had a gauge you could watch during the pull, I bet you're losing at least 20 psi fuel pressure by the time you hit 5 grand. This is what happens when you have stock fuel lines/rails. They just...

    Vacuum in 5.0 at idle?

    I see about 8-9 at idle, the brakes are just starting to get hard... I have just learned to downshift to get the vacuum up and I dont even notice...

    302 for airplane

    Advance the cam, brings the low end power way up. And a roots supercharger would provide more than enough low end power, but may be too heavy.

    mexicano block!!

    who needs a mexican block?? We run mercury mountaineer blocks (97 up) and have reliably made 500+ at the wheels for a long time. I've built a bunch of em. My personal setup has 217 passes and over 12k miles on the street with mounty motor. Best power/value I've ever seen...

    Water pump or fan?

    I run a 3.8L tauras fan. It has a shroud built in and takes up most of the radiator. Cools mint...... I'd suspect the fan.... unless you have underdrive pulleys which I dont think you can since you have a blower

    Go fast tips for the track

    seriously you can not run good times on 2.73's and just take the air filter out when you get to the track

    injectors maxing out

    How much power are you making, you shouldnt be even close to max... I run stock lines, stock filter, one pump in tank, and stock rails and I'm just maxing out now... A FMU is a tuning band-aid that comes with the kit. Its not a permanent, nor a good solution.

    Mini spool anyone?

    With little tires (225, 245 street compound) you almost dont notice it unless you're going into a parking spor or doing very low speed manuvers. Otherwise its great. Sick donuts too With big tires and/or drag radials, it binds up just like everyone says. But hey if you want it, why not.

    At what point do you need to consider a good tune?

    I dont have a chip, tuner, btm, or anything. Drives like stock, better on gas than stock, runs excellent, no surges or flat spots, reliable as hell. It all depends on how lucky you are, whether or not you need a tune/tuner. Sure, I'd have a cleaner looking A/F curve with a tune but you know...

    I was Wrong about EGR and Part Throttle Detonation

    Thats correct. Everything is still in place and could be operational if I ever wanted to. ( no I never want it to work ever ) I have disconnected and removed the vacuum soleniod but still have the EGR position sensor connected, so the PCM knows that its not working, and thankfully I do not get a...

    quick gt40p question, side specific?

    They ARE side specific. Look at the cooling jackets, they are different. The back of the head has an additional port that the front does not have. If you put em on backwards you will have all sorts of cooling issues. Ask me how I know..... edit... apon re-read I used cobra GT40 heads, not P...

    Where did you guys buy your new IAC from?

    It doesnt matter which way its pointed, it either allows airflow between the 2 holes or it doesnt. Thats how it works.
