Well, if you want to cam it, you'll need to upgrade your valve springs, and at that point, with over 100k on them, have them looked at to see if the guides and seats and everything are within spec. Also, youll want to do a timing chain and water pump while you're down there,have your intakes...

if I must reuse my harness, the wires are brittle in some spots and cracking, wouldn't it be best to just save the connectors and redo all the wiring at that point. but then that's a time consuming task and time is something im limited to. where would be the best place to get a new harness? and...

i bought the car without cats and figured the system is pointless without them... im just trying to save money to get it working for now then add on

ThatBear... 1. I was thinking the same thing 2. If I can find a nice set, Ill try to get the gt40 irons... already found a set on CL off a 93 cobra for 350 3. me either lol 4.I found a harness and a9l on CL for 200 i could give a shot maybe 5.I find those intakes everywhere but I want to...

I'm rebuilding my 86 vert and i'm running into some issues. Before I decided to rebuild, the car ran like crap. I tore the motor apart and each piston was coated in carbon due to misfires and detonation... I assumed the pcm was bad due to getting wet. After that, wires started breaking in my...

Lol my only problem is that i need a wire harness which i will not buy 25 year old copper even if my life depended on me; a brand new harness costs about 600... i have a stock intake setup off my 86 along with all brand new sensors. I need to buy cats as i don't have any, and i will also need an...

I just bought an 88 coupe and i plan on making it a track car... Before anyone bashes, I want to explain that the EFI setup has been removed from the previous owner (Harness, ECU, upper and lower intakes and distributor) Since I want to make this a track car, I will be overhauling/ rebuilding...

lol the pcm wont communicate with anything. no test light/paper clip worked either. led to wiring issue or just a :poo:ty computer. and it smokes all bad colors lol black blue and white

im in the process of rebuilding the motor... head gaskets were bad along with intake gaskets. you can resuse guide seals onces they are removed, so yes i got new seals. i got a 3 angle valve job for about 16 dollars at my school, they did a great job too. cylinder leak test showed to be good...

a carb/intake/cleaner assy. runs about 480.... 600 with vac secondaries. Right now, the mustang has bad wiring problems (runs extremely rich, poor idle, bad hesitation, hard starting, misfire/backfire, etc). the wiring harness isnt in good shape (bad connectors, old cracked wires, stiff) and...

as a few people may know, my 86 has some problems. i recently found out i have a newer speed density engine (87-88) but have been tracking for problems since last december. ive been told i have ground and power issues and i think the best thing to do first is check all my grounds. does anyone...

I've just been basing my search off of CL, not the best place in the world. I haven't checked local yards either. My biggest mistake was letting go of my 98 mountaineer, probably the best SUV i've been in IMO. I just don't like the P heads as the plug angle is straight and I would need to get...

i dont have to rebuild them, just new guide seals and they cost less than any sensor. I can port and polish myself as i have the tools but its just a little time consuming. i cant find any gt40s under 250 around here in decent shape. rebuilding them would cost a bit as well. im not planning on...

It is a HO 5.0... from what i can see it is off an 87, but looking behind the starter is a pain. It may sound dumb to many, but I took off the e7 heads and i'm in the process of rebuilding them as I don't feel like buying used gt40s and rebuilding those. so far so good, to me, I think these...

my original plans were to swap to maf, but my wire harness is in such bad shape all corroded and stiff being that it's over 20 years old. also, most of my electrical connectors are broken and a lot of things have grounding issues. a new harness is about 600 with maf pigtail and the maf...

i have an 86 mustang i bought last year, thinking everything was original. yesterday i decided to tear the engine apart to rebuild and prepare for a carb swap. when i took the heads off, i noticed the pistons arent the "true flat top" pistons they say the 86 mustang uses, so i flipped the heads...

im posting my next find in a new thread stay tuned and dont be surpised!

i also looked at the wiring and none of it seemed chewed up or melted, but i know thats not the case. also, i checked the oil level and again, its about 3/4 to an inch higher than it should be on the dip, and smells like gas. all the injectors are new and i highly doubt theyre all stuck open...

when reading resistance between battery ground and black/white wire on obd port, i got (1 .) i dont know why it had so many spaces. but it jumped really quick past like 80 ohms and leveled at (1 .) what does that mean?

Okay i tried the test light way... nothing. pushed my foot to the floor on the clutch and still nothing. whoever had the car before me deleted the neutral safety switch, could that be an issue?
