Not every thing is what it appears to be. I snapped these because it makes it look as if I'm hiding a roots supercharger under the tarp.

Well I started the car tonight. Started right off after I got everything put back together. I ran out of day light so no pics yet. Plus I still have some small things to finish up. Like the electric fan.

I found out there is alot of room under the hood of these cars after you remove the smog pump and all the lines.

Funny it still has the SO bottom end right now. Yup still has the mustang factory header. I do have a set of Headman long tube that need installed still.

Cobra intake with a 70mm BBK TB, and 70mm Air meter. I'm having problem with it idleing and running. I have afew things to check still fuel pressure, and coil.

Looks good:cool: . Is your TPS set to .98 volts? That might help solve your problem.

It spits and sputter and back fires so I still have some things to work out.

70mm BBK TB


TB is too big :( 60mm would run better...

Looks like I need to change the fuel pump and regulater. I'm only getting about 20psi of fuel at all times.

Anyone know what I'm supposed to have?
