    1994 Donor Mustang GT engine swap (is it worth it?)

    Couple thoughts, the mustang front dress can work and you can run a mechanical fan but it's tight. If your running a manual trans and need the stock z bar clutch linkage the mustang block will not have the mounting boss, this is solved easily with a simple bracket sold by the venders. You need a...

    Issues with C4 and new Blueprint 306

    Simple question, are you getting full opening of the carb? Is full throttle opening the butterflies 100%? Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk

    Trying to figure out what lug I need for these older 15x7 slots

    Gorilla lug nuts has a decent online catalog that shows dimensions, only problem I found was the 7/8 hole dia. Probably want to verify that. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk

    Bilstein 5125 questions

    Deavers in front and bronco graveyard deaver copys in rear, the 250/70 was just to light in the front, my shock hoops use same size shock front and rear so I movedvthe 250/70 to the rear and put a set of the 360/80 on the front, for normal use it's pretty good but could still use more damping at...

    Bilstein 5125 questions

    Both appear to be a 255/70 valving, my experience with that in the front with a soft spring (deaver) is that it's too light, I went to the 360/80 valving in the front snd it's pretty decent for an off the shelf shock. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    302 oil pump not pumping?

    Once the pan is off I'd pull at least one main and rod cap and inspect the bearings, if it sat long enough that the oil pump lost its prime and it never made oil pressure then I would expect everything to have been pretty dry. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk

    Fabric prefilter source for cone filter, a proven product for non-restrictive air flow

    Years ago when i had a 7.3 powerstroke the 6673 Donaldson filter was commonly used, i ran one for years, I see that they now have washable versions, if you have room they are big. If you have the flangle style mass air it will probably take some fabrication to make an adapter. I don't know if...

    My Edelbrock Pro-Flo 4 Install

    We did a pro flow 4 on a friends 78 shortbox with a 460 over the winter. Same fuel leak at the pressure sensor. It's had some starting issues on occasion and some times it just didn't seem right, his wife noticed it was showing 67% throttle when just idling down the road, TPS sensor issue...

    Space behind 23 gallon tank?

    Probably won't buy a tank for a year or more, right now I'd rather spend a thousand bucks on air bumps then a tank. Bumper will be raised to compensate for body lift, hoping to have a receiver just below the bumper, old bumper had a hitch that hung down lower and probably dragged at times, 99%...

    Space behind 23 gallon tank?

    Between a 4 1/2" and 7" grinder and the gas axe I got the old welded on bumper off with minimal damage, bottom frame ear had been bent up to fit some channel so needed a bit of massaging to straighten out. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk

    Space behind 23 gallon tank?

    How much room is there behind a 23 gallon tank? I'm getting rid of some ugly homemade( not by me) bumpers and going back to some chrome stock ones, I would like to build a hitch that tucks behind the bumper but I know space is limited there if running a stock or 23 gallon tank. Right now I'm...

    Bump steer and wandering

    I don't believe it was just bronco owners being cheap, I think back then people just accepted that a vehicle wasn't going to drive well once lifted, we have different expectations now. I also think that many times it really wasn't necessary, about 10 years ago I swapped out an old set of...

    Anyone going to the Michigan Bronco/Ford truck swap meet?

    I go most years, I feel that about 4 hours is plenty of time to see everything. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

    91 mustang GT 5.0

    Yes, if manual trans you will need a bracket that the venders sell for the clutch z bar, mustang front dress is tight but can be made to work, flywheel/flexplate and harmonic balancer is 50 oz instead of stock bronco 28 oz. If yours is auto trans the torgue converter may also have to be...

    Ahh, I understood it as you were still running it out the bottom of the shifter but it sounds like it's out the back currently. Sent from my SM-T510 using Tapatalk
