I like the look of the standard better, but will order HID. I much prefer the better light output, whiter light, and the sharp cut off you get with projectors. Putting HID bulbs in standard housings is what causes that blindness to oncoming traffic. Projectors give you that sharp cut-off...

I've been building '11 GT premiums for days now. I eventually want a pretty well modded 5.0. Probably end up with a blower on it eventually. I've also learned that I can usually save a bunch money buying factory options from the aftermarket and upgrading myself. I'd want premium 401A 5.0 6...

Ahhh, good call, I remember TFI's being an issue on past cars. I'll put a new one in and check the TPS.

Thanks, I'll give that a shot. Anyone know the proper voltage range it should read and the testing procedure?

Been resurecting a ford 5.8L GT40 "proboss" ski boat engine. It's just a 5.8 with GT40 heads, intake, and the rest is all standard 5.0L EFI stuff, but with 24lb injectors. I've replaced the fuel pumps, filter, and injectors. It has 38psi of fuel pressure. Replaced cap/rotor/plugs/wires...

I figured it out! It's a fuel injector plug! Same thing. Now I just need a fuel injector pigtail...

Here's what the plug looks like...

I'm working on a ski boat with a 5.8L GT40 motor in it. It has the high pressure fuel pump mounted to the engine on a bracket (standard 5.0 type fuel pump). The electrical connector is toast and I need a replacement. Is there anywhere to find one? What kind of connector is it? I was hoping...

Yikes, that's not what I'd want to do. Looks like I'd option out the factory nav as well. Thanks for the information so far.

I've been playing with the "build your own" mustang website for a while now. I like turning my own wrenches, modifying my own cars, and always to the same upgrades to all my vehicles: Full audio:nav head unit/amps/speakers/sub, sways/springs/shocks, intake/exhaust. How do the factory...

Okay, wasn't the spout, it was just luck. I tried to start again and this time the engine wouldn't crank over. This with a full battery on a 40amp charger. Hmmmm.... I got spark doing the "rotate the distributor" trick- which didn't work before. So I went through and re-did all the...

Yeeeehaaaaw!!!!! Runs without the spout connector! I never heard of these things frying. Autoparts store item?

TFI was just replaced too. I'll try to start without the spout connected and also check the TPS voltage. Codes were IAC and coolant temp out of range (engine was 32 degrees) and my typical 80's codes for my not-hooked up thermactor/emission relays.

I just changed it out for a reman unit today- no difference.

Yes I went through the checklist I found after a search here. Here's what I got: Ford 5.0HO engine with the full ford motorsport setup for swap into a jeep. Harness, mass air, sensors, etc. Been running fine for a few years, then the alternators started blowing diodes (GM 1 wire types). I...

Ok, the million dollar question- what cam, lifters, rockers to use then? I need MAX torque from off idle to around 3000rpm- almost never go past 5000rpm. Highway cruise is 2900rpm. Are new pushrods needed too? Running 4.56 gears with 33" tires with a world class T-5 overdrive.

I built up a 5.0HO engine for my jeep with some nice goodies: blue printed/balanced, forged flattop pistons, Edelbrock performer heads, performer intake, cobra throttle body, stock cam, BBK shorty headers, stock distributor w/ MSD coil. I've used the entire Ford Motorsport mass air...

I have a 5.0HO swapped into my CJ-7 Jeep. I'm running BBK headers to dual 2 1/4" exhaust through 3 chamber flowmasters. No balance tube. It sounds like a normal V-8. I want that deep throaty mustang sound. What am I missing? Do I need an X-pipe? Different type of muffler? Is it because...

Anyone know where I can get a police interceptor crown vic cooling fan? I saw somewhere that the part number is RF-39. Attached is a picture of what I'm looking for.
