Engine Gurus - Need some thoughts and opinions

[Baron Von Crowder]

We were running that same cam in our lemons mustang, tons of torque.

[Snatch Napkin]

Sweet!

Why are you running 42# injectors?

Cool. That's what I am looking for.

I was going to have to buy new ones anyway so why not go with ones that will be able to handle a bigger hp engine down the road? Duty cycles will be minimal with the hp this motor will produce and the required output of the injectors.

Trying to spend money once on some stuff and still plan for future upgrades.

Nice car. Should run good.

That's what I figured. Are you still running the factory computer or have you switched over to something better to tune with?

[91GriggsGT]

It has an A9L in it with a custom tune from HPP. i believe Manny used an SCT chip when I first had him tune the car a couple years ago. Will be making another trip to Manny when I get the motor back in.

Do you know the guy with the coupe this color (not as nice) that is road race set up? Looks a lot like this but a coupe. It was at the TRue Street dyno day.

[91GriggsGT]

No clue.

[Z06killinsbf]

No clue.

Well why not? I gave you a ton of info!! After I posted that I was like "wtf?".

Your really going to put a ford motor back into a mustang? Well at least it will be safe



Just kidding, that looks like a very cool ride and good build.

Yeah, it is probably that guy that did that thing at that place that one time. I did get a good chuckle from your post though.

Yeah, I know guys say put an LS in it. To me that is kind of sacrilegious. Plus I did not want to have to dump a bunch of money in the swap. Same reason why I did not put a mod motor in.

I am into this one for minimal money, and hope to get a couple years out of it before I drop a crate motor in.

Pfft, I'm doing a DOHC 4.6 in mine under a Lemons budget.
