If you can't go below 1K rpm I suspect the following: 1. Vacuum leak. Rotted hose or PCV grommet is rotted out 2. stuck butterfly on TB. OR check the size of the idle hole in the TB blade. Maybe someone really drilled it out! 3. Engine may be relying on IAC valve. during idle. 4...

That's kind of where I'm leaning...:bang:

I bought the Holly (stamped). Leaked out the vac port (right out of the box). I bought the Aeromotive + gauge. Never had a problem. I bought the Kirban + gauge for my other stang and never had a problem. Both are quality units.

20 deg BTDC spout out? Seems high. This might indicate a timing chain problem or messed up damper Original timing chain? Maybe stretched / hopped a link. Back your timing back to stock see what happens. Check plugs. What do you see?

I had problems with the dual black magic. Goddamn themostat never worked correctly. Cheap cheap cheap. Plus when it did work there was no historesis or Proportional Integral Derivitave (PID) control. It was simply a binary controller. If I ever go that route again I'm not waisting one...

My budy has a twin turbo GT. Low 9'3 in the quater. Here is his dilema. 1. can not register it for emissions testing. He has now illegally registered it out of town. 2. As a daily driver he is constantly worried about it getting stolen. Huge investment! 3. Several close calls on...

Tell me the procedure you are using to come to this conclusion. I want to know HOW your doing it and WHAT instrumentation your using. What standards are you comparing against? I could tell you to attach a ground strap 12 inches in diameter to your block and battery and you could still...

Trunk Funk do you ever truly listen to what you say? You use broad terms like "they asked for a civilian war" . Who asked for the civilian war? Do you really think those 9/11 terrorists spoke for an entire religion? I don't really think you understand who "they" are. Listen to the anger...

I think some of you are myopic in considering that a nuclear detonation will solve any problems. Get cancer THEN remind us of your position on nuclear detonation. Tribalism is a signifficant portion of our problem. Do you think that by wiping out a culture we will bridge the gap of...

You could temporarily move the battery to the engine compartment and re-ground the batt and connect the + line to the starter solenoid and see what happens. If the problem goes away then you have conduction issues. If not, then start asking Jrichker (real politely) for help. He knows all...

The electric heater is acceptable in Tech as long as it is aiming at the N2O bottle. :D

With regards to the Powermaster card and 93 amps "at Idle"...what was the stated idle RPM? The PA ALT I purchased indicated 90 amps at 900 RPM. It also indicated the performance (current) curve across the RPM band. Devil's in the details.

This post is off track here. I will restate the intent of the post: "What is this car worth AS-IS" If a for sale sign was placed on it what would a reasonable asking price be? I have no plans to keep it or fix it.

I would not recommend any type of glue or tape for use in proximity to your valve train. 5 bucks in glue could cost you big time if it lets go and wrecks your head

Car is for sale. Hi neighbor. I'm in Portland Oregon. Two estimates to fix were $5500 - $6500.....but it doesn't look that bad :shrug: :shrug: :shrug: :shrug: :shrug: :shrug:

why don't you pressure test the cooling system?

:nonono: I put a huge amount of time into the car to bring it back from where it was (when I first got it) and I'd rather not spend anymore effort on it.
