    Timing for basicly stock 5.0

    I am curious what everyone is running for timing. Right now mine is set for 13 degree advance, but am having some pinging around 2000 to 3500 rpm. The engine is stock except for C and L 76, K and N, 24 pound injectors, fuel pressure set to 34. I bumped my pressure two pounds thinking that might...

    Convertible hardtop??

    Well, I was on a trip for the past week. When I got to my Mustang at the Phoenix airport, someone was kind enough to have cut through my brand new top and taken my stereo and radar detector. Needless to say, I am extremely pissed off. :mad: My insurance company has been great so far. But it is...

    OT, bizzare street racing story

    Geeze it is bad enough that I have to work with quite a few "light in the loafer" types, now I have to look forward to them cruising around??? :doh: I guess it brings new meaning to the term "drag race..."

    2000 Cobra R hood

    Tehre were one or two companies advertising these hoods a couple of months ago in Mustangs and FF. They were quite a bit cheaper than Cervinis. I don't know about the quality though. I have been thinking of doing the same thing, along with the 2000 Cobra R front bumper. I think that would finish...

    Did I get screwed???

    A call to the Better Business Bureau might be in order. They can let you know if there have been other complaints lodged against this company. You can also lodge one. I would. It seems that he over charged you and did not do what you agreed on...

    94 5.0 GT Convertible Clutch Replacement

    A buddy of mine and I replaced my clutch less than two weeks ago. We put in a King Cobra clutch. I love it. We also replaced the cable, quadrant (definitely need to do this if you haven't already), and put on a firewall adjuster. My car is basically stock, just a few minor mods. I think it is...

    Clutch Swap...Most bizarre thing I have seen

    Thanks, we both thought we were going nuts. On his '86 302 and my '66 289 (since been sold), these holes did not go all the way through. We did seal them up while we were putting them back. Just in case, I guess that was smart. Any reason for the holes to go all the way through? I'm just...

    Clutch Swap...Most bizarre thing I have seen

    My buddy and I finally got around to swapping out my clutch. When we pulled the first (bottom) bolt off of the flywheel, oil poured out. A lot of oil. I just had the oil changed yesterday, this looked old. Since the clutch was being changed, I decided to change the rear main seal too. Thinking...

    CATCO H-Pipes?

    Does anyone have the CATCO H-Pipe setup on thier Mustang? If so, what kind of gain did you get? I just got the new Summit Catalog in the mail and noticed them. I would like to swap out the stock setup, but the normal $400 H/X pipe cost is a little steep right now. (I live in AZ, so I do need...

    New Convertible Top for '95 using '03 material

    I have finally decide to have my top replaced. Has anyone had a top made with the same material as the '03 Cobra Convertibles? (the suede look material) I found a shop here in Tucson that will do it for about $800 installed. They get the top made by one of the Ford suppliers, that uses the '03...

    FR500's

    Anyone have FR500's, 18 X 9, on their 94 through 98's? I am starting to browse from some new wheels and I am curious what these would look like on our cars. Thanks.

    Finally!!!

    Finally got everything squared away with my MAF problems. I did have to change the electronics with the C and L system. The sensor was bad. I put a BBK FPR on. With the 24 pound injectors I am running about 34 pounds of fuel pressure. Everything is finally up and running great. :banana: :spot...

    MAF Questions???

    OK, I am still having problems with my Mass Air set up. I have the C and L on, new 24 # injectors, I know probably too much, new FRP 190 fuel pump, just put on a BBK fuel pres regulator. Ran the codes, Autozone special (Actron code scanner), came up with 157. I also checked the voltage at the...

    Runs like CRAP...

    O.K., really dumb C and L question...Which way does that damn sampling tube go? Angle to front or back??? :shrug: Since C and L forgot to install it in my MAF, they had to drop ship it. They have really bad instructions with the kit, nothing on the correct way to mount the tube. I am looking for...

    Runs like CRAP...

    Joe, how far have you had to rotate the sensor? I have it at a 12 'o clock postion, How far off do you think would do it? I just tried moving it to about the 2 position and it runs the same. Incredibly rich. I still haven't had a chance to pull the codes, too much family stuff going on this...

    Runs like CRAP...

    Yep got it, the kit didn't even come with one. I had to call them to send it out, it is the black one. I wonder if I am pushing too much fuel now, but I thought the electronics would compensate for the increase??? I am used to old school engines. My last Mustang was a '66 Fastback with a...

    Runs like CRAP...

    OK, I went and put on a C & L 76 MM kit, 24 pound injectors, Ford RP 190 fuel pump, and my car runs horrible. It is running incredibly rich. Can't idle worth a s... Surges around 1500 to 1900 RPMS. I know some of you recomended a PRO-M, I regret my decision now. I will pull the codes tomorrow...
