I'm in the process of starting it on mine and want to remove these solenoids. I know the one with the blue vacuum hose is for the idle air. But the rest are all emissions right?
for anyone here that isn't already following my build on facebook and instagram, I figured I'd post it here. Bought this from the original owners nephew. the car has just rolled over 100k kms (60k miles) The cat has been garage stored all its life and had no winters. It was 100% original, down to the factory ler, plugs, wires and even rad hoses. I am slowly building it into a cruising car and will eventually be swapping a 5.3L or 6.0L LS into it but for now I just want to cruise with it and take to shows. so far I have added a full exhaust including BBK 1 5/8 inch headers, 2.5 inch O/R H pipe, 2 chamber lers and 2.5 inch flowmaster LX pipes with 3 inch Magnaflow tips. Got rid of the 3 belts on the front of the engine and switch to a newer serpentine set up and added a blue hose kit. the heater hoses are all going to be braided stainless. since i added the duals i had to get rid of the dual fuel pump set up and installed a 155 LPH Walbro in the tank. (i was very suprised to see the inside of the tank still looks like brand new crazy) I also put chrome17" cobra rims on it with 245/45/17 tires on the front and 275/40/17 tires on the deep dish rears. added my custom A pillar pod and gauge cluster and filled them with Autometer phantom gauges. then installed a B&M Hammer shifter and molded it into the factory console to make it look as factory installed as possible. the engine bay is hideous and covered it Ziebat which i am slowly working at cleaning up. i just ordered new aluminium Ford Racing finned valve covers along with a full tune up kit. i have a rebuilt mustang 8.8 with 3.73s that i will be installing very soon. i will upload a few pics here to give anyone interested in this build an idea of where its going, but if you want to see the full build and follow along I'd say add me on facebook (Rj DeWitt) or instagram (xnitewolf79x) and let me know you're from here so i know to accept you. if you read all this, I'm impressed, sorry its so long lol.
apparently i have been off here so long i cant figure out how to add pics lol
ok I know I should know this but what wires should I be running through the Voltmeter to have the alternator charge. worked perfectly fine before the gauges, and now no power is getting to alternator. jumpered the alternator and it works fine and even changed the regulator. I know it has something to do with how I hooked up the gauges.
Swap your axles over to the 8.8 and you won't need the spacers. I just put a mustang 8.8 in my 1984 TBird and swapped the axles out and kept the proper wheel spacing
Ended up doing a TBSS intake and 30lb injector swap. Also just finished doing an engine bay wire tuck. Have a 92mm TB coming this week for it. It's almost done.
Can't wait to take this thing out and hit the track
