    Use mech/vac adv distrib w/eec-iv?

    Yeah, silly question, but here's a thought that popped into my head after reading the timing advance tables in an A9P ecu which are very conservative and surely cost power and mileage, with full advance not coming in till around 5k under WOT, and probly not fully optimum under cruise either...

    EDIS to EEC-IV 5.0?

    Saw a thread on here that somebody on this forum knows how to mate up an eec-iv EDIS like off an Explorer with a Mustang type setup with a typical A9x ecu/system. I have a 351 Lightning motor, warmed up, in a mass air-converted 89 Lincoln Mk7 LSC that I would be interested in doing this...

    Where to get milded one piece pan gasket?

    I remember reading about one some time ago, but of course don't remember where. Anybody know what brand, where to get one, etc? Also the thicker milded rubber over steel valve cover gaskets. This is for a 351W. Thanks!

    Amps draw on 3.8 Taurus electric fan???

    Anybody know FOR SURE? The article in Muscle Mustangs about a Junkyard Fan has been reported as being incorrect, and actually copied out of an article about a Mark VIII fan which draws more. I just bought a Flex-A-Lite variable speed controller with soft start etc and now find that...

    Replacing an AOD with a 4R70W?

    A couple of us have been working on this for some time, trying to figure out all the little details. Has anyone done this? If so would appreciate you looking over this link - you'll have to read it thru and carefully cuz it's been updated a few times and not all the references to any...

    Silly ? - poss to switch 89 EEC-IV to 94 EEC (V?) to control 4R70W?

    Silly ? - poss to switch 89 EEC-IV to 94 EEC (V?) - or add it - to control 4R70W? Yeah, no doubt a silly question. I suppose the 94/95's are EEC-V's and have lots more pins in the computer and the whole wiring scheme is different and more complicated? I'd sure like to find a way to...

    Knock Sensors??

    Anybody know of a knock sensor that will work on a Windsor? Even if it does nothing more than light an indicator light. Guess it might have to be adjustable for sensitivity somehow? Thanks for any info / experiences!

    28 oz 351W flexplate for AOD/E - 4R70W??

    Kinda long - sorry. For my warmed up 351, I would like to replace my AOD with a later 4R70W, but so far can't find a 28 oz flexplate for an /E or 4R. Found out there are basically 2 size lockup converters. The larger 12" (which was used with 302's) is only good to about 5400 rpm...

    Cold air filter box for filter that bolts onto meter

    Does anyone make a cold air box for a system where the mass air meter has a 4 bolt filter that bolts up to it like the pro-m "shorty" meters instead of a flange for a hose to go thru the stock filter box opening? Thanks

    Lentech Valve Body Questions

    I'm tired of trying to program up and down shifts to happen at the right rpm and the 1-2-OD shift pattern of my AOD. I've been looking at the Lentech valve bodies, but am confused by different info in different mag articles, and Lentech doesn't really fully explain the differences in his...

    How Bout a Desk Top Dyno Run?

    I'd sure love to know about what my engine puts out for torque at 2500 rpm, anybody care to run it for me? If you're feeling generous, throw in any other results you want, too. :-) 351W, 1.9 Ebrock heads, Cobra top over GT40-351 bottom port matched, 9.2cr with the heads, stock 302 hydr...

    High Idle

    I recently installed a mild 351 using the basic stock efi. For the first several hundred miles of local driving, it idled fine at about 700, and I was able to set it. I did set the tps voltage after setting the warm idle speed. Lately, it's been idling a little over 1000, although...

    351 PS & AC adapter bracket question

    Does that Ford M-8511-B351 bracket totally replace the stock 302 bracket or does anything in the AC mount also need to be used, like anything under the compressor? Thanks!

    Vibration Problems w/Flex Plate or trans, 351

    Installed a 95 351W Lightning in place of an HO 302 in front of an AOD. Front pump went out right away. Finally found out flexplate that came with 351 although it bolted right up incl the converter, positioned the converter 1/4" back further which caused the pump to go out. Was out...

    Caution when going 351 & AOD!

    Last October I finally put in my warmed up 351 Lightning w/Ebrock heads and other assorted goodies, still fairly mild but WAY big improvement over the stock 302! Anyway, the shortblock came with a flexplate. It was the same teeth, the converter bolted up fine, etc. Long story short...

    95 Mustang 2 speed fan for a 351?

    I just swapped a mildly warmed up 351 Lightning into my 89 Mk VII LSC, along with a heavy duty 3 core radiator. Would a 95 Mustang 18" 2 speed fan with a stock Mustang shroud adequately cool this engine? My alternator is 100 amp and I'm hoping this would handle this type of fan. I...
