Well thanks to all u guys , i got it started definite rep up , but im gettin some misses , so im gonna swap tfi n dizzy tomorrow to see if that helps , if not ill be rippin off heads to make sure valves are seating, its getting there though. One more question, on the ecu harness i believe we have to swap pin 11 to 32 n pin 51 to 38 , now what left me lost is that u can switch 51 to 38 ,but there isnt a pin in 11 but a pin already in 32:wtf:so i didnt do pin swap having fear that i might fry somthing, do i really need to?
Yes thats it, someone mentioned to me before that i needed mas air for tfs1 cam ,but i needed to retain tbirds non ho firing order n just let computer adjust ,ill try ho firing , can any one get me the instructions for the maf plug to make sure i didnt mess up there or follow the wrong advise, ive been looking but cant find anything thanks
Well guys i oppted to take supercharger off for now until i can get this thing running, i got the al9 ,maf n injectors calibrated the same,30s or 40s ,bbk throttlebody ,adjustable fuel reg. n went to my buddies junk yard for the maf pig tail. I tried to follow this pdf picture i saw but no luck.:wtf:it took me a bit to figure out that i needed to reconnect neutral safety switch on transmission (lol)for the five speed swap, but i think ive done some thing wrong because i have no mid pipes at the moment n when i try to start it will spit fuel out of shorty n i get a small fire lol. My timing is zeroed out , i left tbirds firing order 1-5-ect... Idk if i followed the right pdf for maf for our cars, so please if anyone can understand my jibberish n point me in the right direction that would be awesome thanks
Thanks again guys, y'all have really been helpful, I thought I'd get bashed for being a noob but this really makes me feel welcome,and I'll be sure to check out the forms mentioned :D
What injectors could I start out with for cam because I want to give the engine a little break in before I just mount the charger n go like 36-46 lb injectors
You'll also need an EEC such as an A9L, and after you get the whole combo where it runs and drives, the best thing would be to take it to someone who works on Mustangs and other 5.0 Fords with forced induction (as opposed to some random "tuner/builder" type) and have at least one, and preferably 2 or 3 tunes burnt to a flip chip, so if you want to or have to run lower octane gas, you won't melt a piston or valve.
And, with that kind of power, don't use a 2.3 T5, step right up to the V8 version, and have that thing worked over some too, steel retainer, updated syncs, hardened input, etc.
That's the basics, after that, once the parts that make the power are burnin' and turnin', you'll want subframe connectors, tubular rear upper and lower control arms, heavier duty shocks, rear gear change (with a T5, I wouldn't go over 3.73 unless you have some massive tires under the back, with an AOD it's pretty normal and effective for 4.11)
I have one but I think it's for a 95gt or cobra dunno if i should try to tackle with that or try to find 89-90 5sp EEC-IV
First off I wanna say hi to all t-bird/cougar lovers out there,I just recently acquired an 87 t-bird that is non h.o :( ,but decided to try n mod anyway.. I have another 302 roller motor I've been working on that has Gt40 tubular intake,ported gt40 cast iron heads/trickflow springs, Tfs1 cam,bbk long tubes,Paxton old school sn2000,n t5 tranny on my budget at the moment.. My questions are being that I'm sd n not h.o can i still do Maf conv. the same as for the h.o or am I in a pickle here? I'm no electrical guru but I get an basic understanding. Also to do the t5 swap would it be better just to find a turbo coupe or stick to my gun here? I've done alittle research n my understanding is that i would need a T C for rear anyway now do to the fact that the tc I have my eye on is manual could I just rip harness out of this one , do swap on tc ,do Maf conv. n be done or just try to build this one?.. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this post and any advise is greatly appreciated I Luv these cars:burnout:
