I have an '88 Coupe that I did a MAF conversion on (after one too many mods caused some driveability issues with the SD setup). Anyway, after upping the idle a bit I attempted to reset the TPS and saw almost no voltage (.0002). This was not an issue with SD so something must have happened during...

Hi, I was wondering if someone could help me. I am in the process of doing a mass air conversion on my '88 with a T-5Z trans, and am stuck on the VSS install. I can get the VSS into the trans without the cable attatched, but then I can't get the correct angle on the cable to get it into the...

Hello all. While gathering the parts for my mass air conversion, I obtained a 94/95 70mm MAF from Advance Auto. Inside the box there is a note advising me to reuse my old plug insulator (the little accordian shaped gasket/grommet that goes between the harness plug and the MAF). Anyone know a...

I have an issue with my '88 speed density coupe. It is heavily modified (cam,heads,intake,etc) and runs awesome but has one issue. Now and then as I slow down to a stop to either pull into my driveway, or make a turn, it will stall. It idles & runs great, but I can't figure out the stalling...

I am looking to purchase this car so if someone with an account could run a carfax for me I'd truly aprreciate it. 1FACP42E2MF195259 Thank you in advance. [email protected]

Hello all! I have an '88 coupe with a fresh 306 (I told the builder I may add a blower later so it has 4 bolt mains, stud girdle, and an appropriate ring gap). It has the following mods: fenderwell K&N (with home-made tubing), 65mm throttle body, 67mm spacer, Explorer intake, Comp Cams XE264HR...

Looking for an idea on a base tune, or maybe someone that has a similar combo, and the tune they used? I have: 1988 5.0 LX Coupe Fresh (500 miles) RNH 306 Explorer intake 65&67/mm TB&EGR Comp XE264HR cam 1.6 RR's Thumper E7's w/GT-40 valves FMS Shorties Off-road H Magnaflow Exhaust...

I finally got my combo together and running. I know the computer needs time to relearn, but I don't want to damage anything in the process. I started off with the fuel pressure set to 44 psi (vacuum line off & plugged), and timing set at 13*. At around 3500 rpm under load / acceleration the car...

Looking for rear gear ratio suggestions to compliment my Thumper E7's (with GT-40 valves), Comp XE264R cam (1500-5500 rpms), and Explorer intake. The car weighs about 3300lbs w/driver and I will be using a T5-Z trans with the 2.95 1st gear (if that means anything). I currently have 3.55's but...

I will be replacing my shortblock soon, and I can't find the torque specs for engine mounts for an '87-'93 5.0L. I used the search function, Google, etc... and have only been able to find specs for 2.3L and 4.6L. I even tried calling Energy Suspension and they said to check the repair manual...

I finally picked up a 96 Explorer intake manifold, but it didn't come with bolts. I know I can buy them at the dealer, but I don't feel like being raped. I was told I can swap the bolts from the factory lower to the explorer lower, but not the uppers. If someone would be kind enough to measure...

Who's got the best price? So far Summit/Jegs have it for $495.xx Anyone know of cheaper?

I had been in contact with him about building a motor for me, but my recent emails and phone calls have not been replied to. Anybody know if he's okay and if he's away on business or vacation or something?

I am going to have a new shortbock built by Rick, and said he prefers to balance his motors 28oz but he can balance it to 50oz so I can use my current (recently replaced) 50oz balancer, and new in the box stock replacement flywheel. Is it worth the extra $$$ of buying a billet 28oz flywheel and...

I am getting a MAC cold air kit that is chrome. I have no other chrome under my hood and I am afraid it will look out of place. Is it possible to paint over the chrome? If so, what do I need to do that?

I got my trans yesterday from Downs Ford. The receipt says part# M-7003-Z T-5 transmission. The trans has TREMEC on the top of the case, and the part number on the box says "T-5 1352-251". It doesn't say M-7003-Z anywhere). After doing a little research I found this info on D&D...

I am getting a set of Thumpers with the upgraded valve springs. I was wondering if, based on my combo, it would be worth it to get the GT-40 valves? > '88 5.0 LX Coupe, 140K, still speed density w/19lb injectors, > Densecharger cold air kit, FMS 65mm tb, FMS 67mm EGR spacer, stock >...

Can someone please do a carfax for me? I saw a nice looking GT at a car show and I'm curious about it's history. 1FABP42E2JF197259

I'm working on a solution to the age old "oil in the intake manifold" and I had an idea of installing "extra" pcv valves in the valve covers, T them together, and run that T to the upper intake opposite where the factory pcv hose mounts, all while leaving the factory setup in place. HOWEVER...
