    Convert From Show To Go (seek Advice)

    I've pulled the engine to freshen up as well as make Brake and Clutch changes. I want to simplify my setup for X-cross and open road racing. I no longer have use for all the amenities this original 1992 LX had and I'm in the process of labeling and removing unnecessary wires, bundles, and the...

    SOLD On3 Performance Turbo System (new/used)

    On3 Single Turbo System for Foxbody. I purchased this kit from another guy who only used it once to move a car from one location to another. You really cannot tell that it's been used at all since there is no exhaust soot or the like. It may be used,but it is in mint (like-new) condition. I've...

    Electrical Gremlin

    Yes sir, extensive rewiring and changes everywhere... and I follow your thinking. For many months, I ran without issues, which gives me confidence in the Instrument Cluster (IC) not being root cause. More recently however, I replaced the wideband O2 gauge and "intended" to address a flickering...

    Electrical Gremlin

    1992 Mustang LX Convertible: I'm experiencing a bizarre behavior, but perhaps someone could add light or schematic to my issues. 1 - Press the Brake pedal, headlights -and- Brake lights come on 2 - Dimmer switch : must turn on dome lights in order for instrument cluster to illuminate

    Drivetrain Tko600 Clutch Adjustment Issue

    For many years now, you have weighed in. Truly grateful to have your feedback. #1 - I no longer have my old parts. They were sold with the older motor. I dropped the tranny yesterday, inspected all the relatively new components and all looks well. Upon reinstallation, I only removed the...

    Drivetrain Tko600 Clutch Adjustment Issue

    I installed a TKO600 into my 92 foxbody. I'm using an Aluminum flywheel and a Spec 2+ clutch. The problem is that I must put quite a bit of preload onto the Clutch Adjuster at the firewall in order to allow the car to shift. It's my understanding that I should have some 'play' in this...

    Zoom Clutch -- Be Warned

    Good News ! I didn't want to disparage the vendor, but since they're taking care of me, I only have good things to say. Summit Racing has flagged my order as returnable, provided I return it within 4 weeks. So, I gotta suffer through this 104 degree heat and get started on the work. I have...

    Zoom Clutch -- Be Warned

    I called the popular online parts vendors, told them I was going to make 50oFt.Lbs. and needed a full clutch kit for Road racing/autocross. I acquired recommendations and listened to guys at this website rave about this clutch and so I went with a Zoom HP48-1S. It's rated for 500FtLbs. There...

    Engine Unique Intake Setup N/A (363 Stroker)

    No argument necessary brother, here's a couple facts for the discussion #1 ) Ford Cobras, Shelby/Shelby 500's, and Coyote engines are all aluminum blocks ! All high-end GM Stuff (Camaro's, Vette's, Caddies) are all using aluminum blocks. #2) Aluminum blocks typically use...

    Engine Unique Intake Setup N/A (363 Stroker)

    For Road Racing --- this block alone is 110 lbs less than it's iron brethren. With a K-member/Control-arm install, I'm removing "150lbs" from the front-end. To suggest that an aluminum block cannot produce the same HP as a comparable iron block is just advertising a lack of knowledge I'm...

    Engine Unique Intake Setup N/A (363 Stroker)

    Gents, I'm building a 363" off a new Man-o-war aluminum SBF block for a naturally aspirated, EFI, setup. All SCAT 4340 internals zero balanced, Aluminum flywheel. With my Cam selection, my sweet spot is expected to be in the 6000-6500 range. Application: 50% Road Race, 50% hopper. In...

    Help me identify these wires (tmoss)

    I've already been to the Tmoss website, but I'm still struggling to clearly identify these 2 distinct wires/circuits. The first one labeled (wip2) is a 2 wire, white plug. It currently runs along the drivers side. The wires appear to be tan with black stripe -and- yellow with white stripe...

    Battery draw - How much it too much ?

    Apologies to the forum --- I should have done a search before submitting this recent post. There is already a lot of good information and ideas. If I could delete this post, I would....

    Battery draw - How much it too much ?

    I have no proof just yet, but I'm curious if I have a constant draw on my battery while the car is not running and Key-off/removed. I understand items like the radio clock and Memory in the computer require a constant supply of voltage to maintain their settings. Do you have any idea how I...

    Turn Over - No Start - Followed Checklist -

    Problem Solved ! As mentioned in my initial comments, headlights and dual-electric fan installed. I tapped a key-on/hot line for the electric fan. Didn't realize it was the line going to the coil. So basically, I tapped into the YELLOW line going into the coil and connected to the relay...

    Turn Over - No Start - Followed Checklist -

    Car was running -- pulled heads -- reinstalled them -- fire up engine -- after a little while 1 or 2 rockers got noisy, so I pulled the upper intake and valve covers, relashed valves and put everything back together. Historically, I've gone through this a few times without issue... until now...

    Engine 347 Na Crate Engine Questions

    I too have a T&L 347 and my 30lb injectors are working just fine. T&L are now out of business...have been a for a little while now. If you google it, you'll find a wake of dudes who are or were not happy. I recently checked my compression and found 2 weak cylinders. I followed up with a...

    Stalling

    Theory: Possible "crap" tune. There are fuel injection tables which control idle air at startup...and they can be Time and/or Engine temperature (ECT) based... which means the engine needs to run for "so" many seconds and/or at a certain temperature before a revised fuel-map is used. In your...

    Need Help With Random Idle Surge

    First things first... If you suspect you have a vacuum leak, then get a gauge on there to confirm. Visually 'looking' at hoses is a poor use of your time and likely to be wasted. I don't know where you live, but many parts stores rent such a tool. If you find your vacuum is low, I would...
