interesting way to get the front center cap on.
how far does that dust cap stick out?
penceracing
10-26-2010, 09:26 PM
yea not to much the spindal stick out alittle bit not to bad. if i put the 98 spindal on it will work. but it dont look bad. I would say probley about an inch or so
cool good to know. I have the same set up sitting in my garage waiting to go on, didnt know how far the cones stick out. im going cap less until I get my sn parts

10-26-2010, 10:34 PM
Id just lose the caps. Any 94-98 spindles, hubs, and stuff will fix it. Or just lose the wheels and get the Welds back on it!

10-27-2010, 12:25 AM
i think if u lose the cap u still have to cut the center cap out but not for sure. let me know. i wish i had the money to put welds back on but dont have the money

:lol: c'mon now man, you cant say the car wont transfer weight.. its prob those junk ass tires you are running.. get you some wider tires .. How much timing is in your car? I had a buddy who didnt have much timing in his car and it was slow , he put timing in it and it felt like totally different car.. Theres got to be something up with your car it should run way better than that on street tires.. lke 92mustang dw said, his car is on its nuts and it runs what it does.. my buddys coupe had stock heads cam intake just a gear and exhuast and it went 13.48

It must hear all those quite cars like mine. Lol jfwy.
I've to iron out some shit myself. I'm thinking of switching computers and going to a different NOS set up so I can feel comfortable actually running it. I don't like the system in it now. So I figure I will change those and go to get it tuned.
Doesn't make sense to now. I don't run juice and don't run it hard. In hoping to see 5xx with juice next year. it just depends on cash flow this winter.

Uhh, i'm pretty sure your car didn't come with an e cam stock. I hate when people say that have a stock car, and it ends up being cammed or something. I can tell from the pics you have a cobra upper and a cold air, they didn't come stock with those either, nor a 3:73 gear.

11-14-2010, 01:32 PM
Any aluminum head with with nice ports will help you reguardless of combustion chamber size unless you go to 72 cc or so. Im not to sure what the heads you have look like but if they are just slightly ported 289 heads then most any head will pick you up and also shed a bunch of weight off the front end.
penceracing
11-14-2010, 03:10 PM
yea i know the weight loss would be nice but i think it might be a waste of money and with no pick up. the heads i have now have good port work and being resurfaced helps alot. am not really sure what i will do. maybe the aluminum heads from procomp and the turbo from chad.

as soon i get the money i will get everything. the heads and cam will be first and then the turbo. i was also changing the whole set up on the cam and lifters. maybe hydraulic flat tapped.
What you done lost your mind!!! Why go to that? There is plenty of good hyd roller cams out there and they work 10 times better. Why do you think they went to them in the first place??? Less friction and wear and they create more hp. I think your better off putting on a set of TFS heads and a cam swap then the turbo but hyd. flat tappet cam is nonsense!

call bennet racing or anderson for a custom grind turbo cam it may run you 300 but youll be much happier with the results. the fcam is horrible.
everything i is nonsense to u... then how come no one can tell me a good camshaft to use??
I think you was told.^^^ Nonsense is putting a flat tappet camshaft in! You would pick up power with a solid cam maybe but why not just go with a hyd roller like you have, then you dont have to buy all new pushrods and lifters and shit. You can get a good custom cam for right around $279 and make alot more power with it. The old Ford letter cams were the shit, 10 years ago! There has been so much R&D put into camshafts here lately that there is no comparison. You do what you want since it is your car, but ask a question and you will get an answer. Not always what you or any other wants to hear including myself but these people have been messin with them for years and they know what works. Talk to Mike at DP, Craig @ Cincy Speed or any of the other tuners on here and see what they have to say.

relax man were all just trying to help out! No need to get upset! I agree with draggin5.0 call a reputable tuner and ask for help, ive been fuggin with these cars for over 10 years and still trip over shit, its part of the fun of it. Use the kiss method (keep it simple stupid) the most simple combos usually work the best its when you try to make mismatched stuff work that you end up broke with a slow ass car and alot of expensive parts, been there done that. look at the mods in the fast guys sigs they know there shit. Honestly If I were you id go looking for gt40p heads send them mike at dayton perf. have him port them and your intake, put comp cams 942-16 valve springs on them there cheap and they work i have them on mine and go with an anderson b-31hr cam, NEW oem lifters, and the on3kit. find a set of used 42# injectors and a good meter stay away from C&L there junk and never idle correctly, if you dont make 500hp ill buy the kit from you. This combo made 468whp on my buddies 92 gt with a worn out shortblock so it works. Hope this helps.

Yeah the car really dont run bad for what it is. If ya get some welds and a good set of tires, and get the posi unit fixed, you know you can get into the 12.80 range. I know you dont have alot of money to be spending so just listen to what alot of these people will tell ya and ask. Alot of good info on here and just do some research.

Which cam is that? Im sure its way to big to work with the turbo kit. They dont require a huge camshaft to make big power. Your probably better off with a B cam! You might wanna do some more homework...

Look man we've had several of these cars come out of our camp. The f cam will do great. It's all in your turbo. If you wanna run high 9's low 10's the its all in your turbo. Get a mp70 or 76 and it will make plenty of power and not care what your motor is. Now if you wanna go faster than that then look into big heads and custom cams

But it for a high compression 347 with good heads and induction. Just cause it works good in that motor dont mean it will in yours. Im with Metcalf. Just get the turbo kit and run it. Hell with spending a bunch of money to not go near as fast than if you would just buy a cheap turbo kit.

11-28-2010, 03:32 AM
I know plenty of people who have run them. Kurt has a set but he had the valve train done hisself. Thats what is junk about them. The castings themselves arent bad. When a complete head cost $100 more than a bare casting, that means you have a $100 junk valve train. You might wanna do your homework... You have a stock bottom end with stock pistons and valve reliefs and expect 2.02/1.60 valves and .542 lift to work together... Just tryin to help ya out but thats cool. Its your ride. Im out!

i have talk to someone about the turbo if i keep it at 5lbs i can run the stock fuel pump, injectors, and mass air meter for now and i dont have to have it turned either. so am goin to buy the turbo kit and run it for now until i get the rest of the money to get the other stuff.

11-28-2010, 03:31 PM
My only question is if you turbo it why would you wanna keep it at 5lbs?????? If i have a turbo you bet your ass i am going for atleast 10-15lbs.... I dont care what anybody sayd either if you only have it at 5lbs i still would have it tuned just to be safe......
