Re: Tuesday build progress ...

She had it on her 89 GT. Yes it will be on the dyno at some point in the future.

Re: Tuesday build progress ...

Now you just gotta get an aftermarket mass air meter to finish it off.

guess we'll find out later anyway.

got it running smooth now; had to play nice because of the wet roads, but can already tell it has a lot more power .... just doesn't want to idle ... Trying to sort that out now.

Re: Tuesday build progress ...

Got the idle set now ... all done.

I've only had first hand experience with the one that Tracie had on her GT and after it was installed the car would periodically miss under load. That is the only thing good or bad I can really say about it ... as pointed out earlier we didn't really have time to try and sort out the issues or do any extensive testing.

Periodically? Seems like I remember it was a constant missing along with never being able to get it to idle correctly.

It, for the most part, missed under load usually above 3000 rpm
