My '69 Grande coupe build (continued)

Seats are in. Very little left to do underhood, just some cleanup.

Sounds good man! It's idling well, also. So... it runs, but how does it run?

I was surprised, when I put the holley HP ecm on, I had a difficult time getting it setup to be able to idle. Driving was ok, but it was not ever "right". When I fired this one up, I downloaded the base tune, changed the parameters for the ford tfi and a couple small things, and it fired right up and ran well. It still needs some tuning, I want to bring the iac position out a bit so it doesnt stumble when the throttle cracks open, and it is lean in the upper RPM's.

I only drove it about 2 miles then turned around, but on the way back, the back end decided it wanted to be in front after 1-2 shift.

I was going to use it on my 95 with stock 95 shifter

eh, it's only like 30 bucks from ford, that's not worth gas or shipping.

If I remember right I had to cut the bottom mof my column, put a bearing in it and the shaft slid in. Wasn't too complicated to make.

update, they provide a bushing, you have to pull the steering wheel, take out the tube, install the bushing and reassemble.
