    American Racing lists the 4x4.25/4x108 in the 15x7 but it appears, at least everywhere I've looked, lists them as out of stock. I wonder if you can even still order them.... :shrug: It might be a good idea to stop in to a brick and mortar dealer and ask about them, you may still be able to...

    I feel like I'm chasing my tail with this thing

    So I might finally attempt changing the intake gasket this weekend. The Cobra's fuel injection project is stalled and I don't have much more planned aside from moving stuff from my carport to a temporary portable garage so I can get some work done on the house. It's still doing the same stuff as...

    TB Injection Install (Aces Killshot)

    Some info about the ECU issue that may or may not be the cause. Apparently they've had issues with certain style coils when running the ignition through their system. I have an MSD Blaster SS coil that's run through the MSD Digital 6al and he said that that was one of the coils that they know...

    TB Injection Install (Aces Killshot)

    Yeah, I've called them once before and the tech on the line said I was talking to the best person already. Got an email from him shortly after I called, this is where it still sits as of this post: The plan is to give them another call tonight as long as I can get off work on time. :cross:

    TB Injection Install (Aces Killshot)

    On another note, the V belt has been having issues with the 3g alternator, so I'm taking the downtime as an opportunity and swapping pulleys to go with a serpentine belt: https://www.summitracing.com/parts/SDM-PCE415-1025 Fair warning, though - if someone wanted to try using these, they...

    TB Injection Install (Aces Killshot)

    So it's been a couple weeks since I've really given an update on this - I've been in contact with their techs about what seems like a dead ECU. I let it run for a while then gave it a shot again just like in the above videos when it did the same thing. I got in the car and tried to restart but...

    5 lug conversion questions...yes I have searched

    There is a thread in the stickies above under 'Best of Tech...' to give you ideas of what can work. For simplicity, here is that link if you'd like to take a look. https://stangnet.com/mustang-forums/threads/wheel-tire-combos-known-to-fit.373351/

    5 lug conversion questions...yes I have searched

    Welcome to the site! :cheers: I'm almost positive that any 8" carrier will work. As for axles, I don't have any hands on experience, but I've also read that 65-66 axles are ALMOST the same length. If memory serves, there's maybe .25" difference? The advantage of the Yukons would be that they're...

    Exhaust Manifold search

    You should be able to use any old 302 exhaust manifold. Or, if you wanted to spend a little more, you could possibly just do it once and go with Fox body shorty headers. :shrug: DEMOTOR PERFORMANCE Shorty Polished Stainless Steel Headers 1 5/8" for Ford Mustang 1979-1993 5.0L V8...

    Carburetor not getting fuel on cold start (76 Ghia)

    Oh, one more thing - it's possible your float is stuck keeping the needle on the seat and not allowing fuel to enter the carb bowl. It might not be a bad idea to check that as one of the first things.

    Carburetor not getting fuel on cold start (76 Ghia)

    Yes, it would be a pain. You'd have to run a return line, somehow plumb it to return to the tank, and add a regulator to decrease pressure to somewhere around 6-8 psi. Most electric pumps provide a lot more pressure than a carburetor needs and would easily flood it as well as possibly spraying...

    Carburetor not getting fuel on cold start (76 Ghia)

    Here's what I probably should've said yesterday: Have you pulled the line from the pump to the carb to see if there was sufficient flow? I'd pull that line, stick it into some sort of container, crank the engine for a minute then check the container. That'd give you an idea whether or not the...
