    Finished Pics Of My Gt40p Swap

    Thanks guys, I just masked off the accessories and gave them 3 coats of engine enamel from the hardware store, so far so good with just a little peeling on the EGR valve. Also, the idle issues turned out to be from the exhaust leak, must've been misleading the oxygen sensors and causing...

    Finished Pics Of My Gt40p Swap

    Hey folks, first of all thanks to everyone who gave advice along the way. Still have hanging idle/stalling issues but am thinking it may be due to an exhaust leak at my pass side flange I haven't had time to screw around with. Remanufactured GT40p heads, tubular GT40 intake, MAC P specific...

    Engine Gt40p Setup Won't Idle

    My point exactly, that was my understanding. More air in with the same fuel as stock = lean condition = adjustment to fuel load due to O2 readings. I agree a tune is always going to be the best idea for optimization, but a GT40p/GT40 intake/stock cam setup should be able to at least idle on...

    Engine Gt40p Setup Won't Idle

    Hmmm, I was under the impression that the EEC would re-learn conditions for subtle mods like GT40p heads and a GT40 intake, I remember reading of folks getting by fine with the stock cam. That's unfortunate if I'll need a tune... I purposely left the stock cam for now until I had the time/money...

    Engine Gt40p Setup Won't Idle

    I've also got an exhaust leak at my passenger side header flange that I plan to work on when I get access to a lift, would that affect the idle at all?

    Engine Gt40p Setup Won't Idle

    So I cleaned my IAC, followed the base idle reset, checked my TPS voltage (which was at 1.2, so to be safe I did some notching on the stock TPS and lowered it to 0.95, though it seems this is irrelevant on SN95s as they zero the sensor every start) and still I'm having idle issues. Timing was...

    Engine Gt40p Setup Won't Idle

    Hey folks, I swapped on GT40p heads and a tubular GT40 intake (stock cam and stock throttle body) onto my '94 and am having trouble getting it to idle. It runs through the RPMs nicely and feels strong, but as soon as I pull up to a light the idle slowly drops to about 500 rpm and oscillates...

    Engine Valve Cover Vent Hose Necessary?

    It's baffled and I ran 1/2" heater hose from it to the nipple on the intake, still a closed system. It actually looks great with classic chrome valve covers :)

    Thanks, I picked up something like this from the parts store and it should work!

    Engine Valve Cover Vent Hose Necessary?

    Hey folks, doing a head swap and my new valve covers don't have a fill neck with a nipple for the vent hose. Should I look for a cap with a hose or would I be fine deleting it? Doesn't the PCV take care of venting?

    Engine Tubular Gt40 & Gt40p's With Internal Egr

    Hey folks, about a year later than I had hoped but I'm FINALLY getting around to doing my head/intake swap this weekend :) I noticed the GT40p heads I've got have provisions for internal EGR, as does my tubular GT40 manifold, so I was wondering what best way to block it off is. If I don't block...

    convertible motor kicked the bucket. What years are compatible?

    So I ended up fixing my problem, great alternative to a $200 motor/pump assembly :) I removed the two bolts on the end of the motor (towards the passengers side of the car) and removed the motor housing. Inside was a bunch of black dust, I blew it out thoroughly with some compressed air and...

    convertible motor kicked the bucket. What years are compatible?

    Hey guys, my top motor stopped working tonight :notnice: (the relays still click but the motor doesn't run, seems common), are top components shared from 94 to 04? Couldn't find anything searchbarring. I'm just trying to see if I can broaden my search when comparing prices on a new one. Cheers

    GT40p swap, E7 springs and rockers?

    Hey Folks, I'm going to be starting my gt40p swap in the next couple months. I'm swapping my E7s with a pair of remanufactured P heads, a tubular gt40 intake, and retaining the stock cam. The heads came with springs and stamped rockers, presumably stock gt40p pieces. I know these springs...

    99-04Gt Verse 95Gt

    I was in the same dilemma a few years ago when I was a highschool senior looking to buy my first Mustang, 1994-1995 5.0 vs 1999+ 4.6. I found my '94 convertible gt in excellent condition for a good bit cheaper than average shape hardtop new-edges were going for. Whichever you decide on, I...

    GT40 tubular intake pics

    Hey folks, so I was in the market for a sn95 cobra intake but ended up impulse-buying a polished tubular gt40 on ebay. If you've got any pics of this intake mated to an elbow adapter in our engine bays, please post them up, I'm trying to get an idea of how this is going to look. I may decide to...
