I thought about doing something like that with a old mac cold air intake and procharger hat but haven't had time to make something that doesn't look crappy yet.

cool thanks alot. I hope to get one ordered next weekend. I think I'm going to use the 157 tooth bellhousing I think I may actually have one in the parts pile.

no1 has any idea? It's about time to order the tranny and I'm scared i'm going to order the wrong one if I guess.

If you have never done this u might had better get someone who has with u. The springs can fly out and hurt you or even kill you. It's happened more than once. Just be safe The first time I tried the chain I was using sliped and the spring came out so fast it took me a few mins to fig out...

Ok on the dip stick issue personaly I would just drill out the hole on the block to accept it.

I've not goten to that part yet. I did however locate the flywheel you need lastnight. Ebay sells a aluminum 28oz that should work for u. Do a search on "mustang flywheel " will find it. although it's kinda high$ But owning a mustang can be expencive @ times.

You could however take the route I took with my build. Sence all the issues seemed to fall on the balance weight I desided to go with a C4 tranny. all the other stuff will work timing cover ect. I just used a 87 model cover with no hole 4 fuel pump and got another holley red pump to feed a...

Dads can be like that sometimes. My first car was a 87 gt. I wasn't allowed to do much of anything to it except drive and wash it. I was 16 at that time and a freshman in HS. The next year in school I was able to get into auto shop. I did alot of work on the car there using there tools out...

I never have nor heard that eather. Am I missing something? I can say I've never had a problem with vibration after a u joint change.

Firing order is defined by the cam. Atleast I assume it is. I used a 302 cam in a 351 once by changing the firing order of 351 to the 302 firing order. It worked gr8t so this makes me think it is defined by the cam. Here is another issue the balancers are different weights. I think they...

yeah go ahead ur cool u might need to change paper sooner thats it.

pops off be very careful not to bend it though. A wide putty knife works well or those multi tools they sell for removing trip and installing the clip on window cranks. The metal sections can and will bend if your not gentle.

Auto parts store should have it near paint. I own a powder coating shop so this is up my alley.lol I would use wetdry with all the paper. What exactly are you cleaning up? After all that work is done I'd zoop seal it. It will keep the nastys from coming back. U can also have it clear...

Nutcase has a good point. being yor total stock U could gain a fair amount just by bolt ons and exhaust. Then when u do drop heads on it your making that much more power. Rear gears would be where I would start. That will make your car feel 100% stronger. + gears are way cheaper

u checked timing? Mine did that when I first built it. Although it's a carb setup. I put it on the dyno and played alittle and got it adjusted out by playing with the timing and carb. This made me have to do some adjustment to the timing retard I use when I arm my nitrous system.

around 75hp give or take a few IMHO but maybe more

Hmm Maybe flywheel is untrue? My LX had a vibration in it for awhile I tried 3 diff things. New clutch setup New driveshaft New balancer. I think the driveshaft and balancer made the most differance. Was the vibration felt thru the car or in the shifter? I've heard of sloppy old...

just a note on LT headers. If your car is as low as my 89 lx u might have problems. I bent the hell out of the drivers side LT I had on mine when I first rebuilt it. I caught the collector on a speed bump ingles had just had put in. Needless to say they fixed it but it did render the car...

I'd test my valve springs. My ol ladys gt was droping off power when it shouldn't have been. At fist I thought I was sucking the fuel line dry. I installed a fix for that and same problem. I desided to put in better springs and it gave the car it's pep back. May just be worn parts.

Did u miss a gear or something?
