    clutch pedal assembly

    pretty sure any 79-93 will do for sure. just make sure you get a pedal assembly from a 5.0 car. the clutch quadrant arm on a 4cyl assembly is a lot shorter.

    How can I tell my pedal assy is a v8 assy and not a 4cyl assy before a T5 swap?

    They are NOT the same. A quadrant made for an 8cyl will not fit on the 4cyl assembly. The only differenece is the bracket the quadrant attaches to. The 4cyl's pedal assembly attaching arm for the clutch quadrant is a lot smaller.

    Questions before valve covers go on

    I just changed all my valve springs. Before I go ahead and put the covers back on, I want to double check some stuff. When a piston is at TDC and I push down on the rocker arm pushrod side, a little gap develops over the valve stem. Is this normal? Could too much clearence cause loud tapping...

    Do I need a by-pass valve?

    I finished the install of a novi 1000 blower kit on my car. The instructions dont really go to deep into the by-pass valve issue. Do I need one? I know exactly what it it used for, just not sure if it is necessary. The kit makes 5-6 psi. thanks

    Any pics of MSD mounting locations in a fox?

    Wire length was exactly the reason why I moved my battery to the inside. I deffinatly did not want to go through splicing and extending igniton wires. I dont know if it would make a huge difference, but my battery was pretty ugly and I figured i might as well kill 2 birds with 1 stone. I got an...
