    replacing head studs

    thats kinda what i was thinking. I think ill just pull the valve covers and check the torque to make sure nothing loosened up and then ill just get a new set when the heads come back off. Ill probably be upgrading heads within a year or so unless i blow her apart sooner. LOL Thanks for the...

    replacing head studs

    I'm currently running gt40p's with ARP head bolts and 6psi of boost. I will so be increasing the boost level. I was told that I should look into replacing them with head studs instead. I was hoping to be able to replace one at a time so I wouldn't have to pull heads and replace the head...

    Another HP guestamate!

    i think money would be best spent elsewhere... I don't think your going to see drastic improvements with that cam because of the heads. If your on a budget, pick-up a set of gt40p's, and use a TFS1 and you'll see an easy 30-40 at the wheel...

    v3 vortech alignment issues?

    Anyone install a v3 vortech setup on a 87-93 fox? I'm having alignment issues on the serpentine setup and some of the directions seem a little vague from Vortech. My issue lies somewhere with the tensioner and the a/c idler. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Jim

    Vortech Problem

    as it turns out, i guess it would be important for your tuner to know the difference between 10* after TDC and 10* before TDC; which also would explain why he burned the finish off my $350 headers...

    Vortech Problem

    i would think that if it was clutch related it would be making some noises or something, no? I know the rear is fine because it was rebuilt and leaves nice dual patches... i'm starting to wonder if it's in the tune as well...

    Fuel Pump Walbro 255 LPH

    my pump was like that also, i think it may be an aftermarket pickup...all i did to get the pump to fit in is cut one side of the ring around the bottom and spread it open a little... with the hose connected it sits in there really nice... i've ran a few different pumps that way with no issues...

    Taurus fan guys in here...pics please (other e-fans too)

    um, I believe it was a 93 V6 I pulled it out of... I'm only running it on low speed and it cools perfect... using a flexalite fan temp control and a universal 30 amp relay from napa. It required some minor trimming and then i made 2 brackets that run the length of each side top to bottom and...
