Part of my winter project consisted of a head swap and installing a trick flow stage 1 cam. When I did the cam install I was very careful about the alignment marks, but.... Here is my problem. I tried to fire off the car and it took a long time messing with the distributor. I Found TDC...

Will an AOD starter work on a T5?

I have 2 motors an various parts that I want to build 1 good street EFI motor for my 65. I would like to shoot for the 350-400hp, but that might be out of reach for now. I have been running the Edelbrock performer upper and lower on a stock motor and it really doesn't pull until higher RPMS...

I bought a set of brand new gt40 heads (they have been in storage for a few years) and want to replace the factory heads. The gt40s are assembled, and I think all I need to do is blot them on. My questions: 1) Can I use my stock push rods and rockers? 2) is there a bennifit to changing...

I have a 65 mustang that I put in a 5.0 and AOD package. I had my AOD rebuilt awhile back, and I have had nothing but problems with the rebuilder and the tranny. I took it to another tranny shop and at least they new how to set the TV cable. However it still has issues, and I am tired of...

as the saying goes, to good to be true!!! http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?paId=247303622 It doesn't mention anything about it being a Roush, however if you look close at the pics, it is a stage 3 roush for $19,000!! I thought i found the motherload. Maybe the guy honestly didn't...

I dropped a 5.0 and AOD into my 65, then had the tranny rebuilt. The tranny builder tried to adjust the TV cable but had some issues. He told he did the factory adjustment by putting the weight on ect... He said it was shifting early, so he kept adjusting the tv outward. Now he is out of...

Anyone have a TV cable bracket that attaches to the tranny they would like to get rid of? I would love to see a pic if someone has one as well. Living in Alaska I have literally checked all the salvage yards up here and I'm coming up empty handed. Is there a mustang salvage yard in the...

I am on vacation an rented an 06 with a V6. I fell in love, however it needs more power. The gears got to turning and I found an 06 GT for $17,000 with only 1600 miles close to home. I called the guy and he said it has a reconstructed title. I guess he bought it with 1000 miles and and...

I looking at taking a trip this fall. Like late oct. or nov. Not really sure where I want to go. I have some friends in North Carolina I was thinking about seeing. It will probablky be about 2 weeks. I would love to see a Mustang or classic car event or any motorsport event for that matter...

Everything is finally up and running in the car. I went to finalize the timing, and there is no pointer!!! So can I time this to vacuum? Salvage yard are worthless up here in AK, where would I find a pointer? What other timing options are there?

Need to figure out which wire is for what. Anyone have diagrams?

I'm still having issues getting this thing to run right. I have gone threw the sticky about the idle, everything seems good so far. no codes, cleaned the iac, checked vac lines, new sensors, relays ect... At times it idles great, other times it idles so rough it just dies. I really can't...

ok, this is round 3 for the day. I think I have everything cleared up except this... At idle it really sounds rough. I think it is missing. I have checked plug wires 3 times now, everything looks ok. Once you give it a little throttle it will coughs and sputters, but will catch it self and...

Have severe idle issues and codes. I tried to pull the spout out to check timing, and the car dies immedatly. I already replace distributor and TFI. wiring all looks good, any thoughts?

Just got the 5.0 EFI cracked off today!! SWEET!! It goes in monday for exhaust, then to the tranny shop to get the TV cable adjusted. It still is running a rough, and won't hardly idle. I think my distributor is bad. Hopefully the 5.0 boys will help me out. Anways, I'm excited and had to...

Ok, I just finished my 5.0 install into my 65. I used a Ford motorsport harness, and pretty sure I have everything wired right. I fired it off, and to my amazement it runs!!! :lol: HOWEVER... It runs rough, and won't seem to idle, and back fires a bit. I pull codes and get code 14 PIP...

I'm trying to put on tranny cooler lines, but it seems there should be a special fitting that goes into the tranny. Where do I find that fitting? I don't have the old lines, and finding parts in a salvage yard is next to impossible. What is the best cooler lines to use?

I have a complete 289 that runs great. It puffs a little smoke on acceleration every now and then. I think it is the valve guides. It is complete, 2bbl intake, carb, flexplate, starter. Living in AK I would like to keep it local. I think it might be spendy to ship to the states. If someone...

I'm trying to finish my swap and the hego harness I have is pretty trashed. I don't think I will have much finding one in a salvage yard up here in Alaska. Anyone have a good harness they want to get rid of?
