    FMS 351w swap headers, questions

    yeah. i will be running my si-blower on this engine eventually also. which will help things along, but lt's and mid-pipe will cause my catback not to work also. so it goes from 0 cost to around $1000 for decent stuff. pretty big investment, for how much gain?

    FMS 351w swap headers, questions

    they are from a friend. i am not gonna take parts to flip them like that. the reviews i found (from 2002) implied they were so :poo:ty it wasn't even worth taking them.

    FMS 351w swap headers, questions

    i had a 393 stroker fall into my lap basically. i can also get some fms swap headers for a 351 for free. i did some quick searches online, how horrible are these really if anyone has used them? i haven't seen them in person. appears they are 1.75 primary to 2.5 collectors? i was also told they...

    How would you use a $10k budget?

    if you already know what you want as an end result.. dont be stupid and buy it already done. i just spent over 10k on my engine build/supporting mods. buy the entire car done and cut the cost in half or less.

    A little bummed out today

    consider yourself lucky. these are pics of how my $3500 shortblock arrived. this is exactly how it sat when i arrived to pick it up. this is after the freight company lost it for 5 days. over $1000 in damages, freight company refused to pay for it. so i got bent the hell over.

    highest flowing factory mufflers

    not sure if there different or not, but the 11 gt stock mufflers are super super quiet. no power is gained from catbacks, so they obviously flow good.

    Mystery 03 Cobra Terminator tuned by Horsepower by Hermann - help needed.

    i live within reason of you.. do not have anyone locally retune that car. there is nobody near the reputation/ability of that tuner who did the work.

    Drove a new 5.0....

    12.31 @ 116.89 with a 1.97 short time. :shock: mods; stock tires, wheel hop, steeda CAI and tuner. 91 octane steeda tune. 11's will be easy with some tires on it.

    Project Snowball underway

    my new 11' kinda took some of my drive away from this. new engine is not going as planned, so i've done lots of other things. new wheel hubs, new door hinges, new alarm hidden, re-wrapped all my wiring harnesses, did a little more sound deadening, got my ceramic lts and 3" exhaust parts here...

    TFS Id

    old school tfs heads with no markings on the end, are STILL marked. on the exhaust port face, between the 2nd and 3rd port iirc. toward the top where the valve cover deck is, there is a number. i called tfs with my casting # and he identified them for me.

    The Fox got lonely..

    thanks, it seems to be a like it or hate it color for most. when i saw it in pictures, i didnt like it at all. it is either white, gold, orange, or yellow depending on the light in person. lots of metallic to it. time will tell how accurate the 27 hwy mpg rating is. that was one of, if not...

    engine is toast

    yeah, usually local makes sense.. sometimes it works out where you use another builder though. ad performance seems to have some good shortblocks from what i've seen. guy in portland area is using one with a turbo, car runs strong thus far. btw, rick is building me a 331, not a 347 :D

    The Fox got lonely..

    yea... its crossed my mind. however, i loved my fox before i got it. just a bad time to put car head to head. one is a paid for project, the other is a big monthly payment. once the engine is back and i can get through the remaining, ill have a 600whp toy that will be a blast. this will stop...

    The Fox got lonely..

    thanks, the fox is taking the mod $$ now. im truthfully getting burnt out on it, badly. it just keeps finding ways for stupid **** to take my money. some of it im deciding to, some of it the damn thing just keeps robbing me. perks of a 20 year old car. once its done, if i can even make it...
