:biggthump Poboys!
The problem with the 94-95 5.0's will always be the factory ECM tune (same with the Ex's). You should have been pushing 280+rwhp with that (AFR, Steeda 19) combo with a competent tune. I always enjoyed listening to the runs at Bradenton when I visited Blue Oval.
I guestimated at least 325 or so at the flywheel?? I enjoyed blasting around and hanging with the good peeps of Modern Mustangs of North America in Tampa. Cruisin's, shows, free track days etc. I miss it...
Yeah, it's amazing that our V8 Ex's come with the best heads and intake ever to come from Ford (OEM) for a small block 302, the parts which NMRA Factory Stock racers are now running 10's with and people still think they're junk. More Powah to those who think they're junk! Makes humiliating them all the sweeter!
Yep, If I can find me a rolling chassis Fox I'm going with the P heads to save money. Nowadays Iv'e even pondered an old SVO turbo with the price of gas and all.
Thank you Poboy for the info fella, nice choices on your combo indeed.
My pleasure. I kept my pics, and all the books that I learned stuff from. If things would have gone right for me I was seriously thinking going with a KB blower to complement the cam, but alas such is life..
BTW,
Sorry for the thread hijacktiation, but this thread looked like it was going down hill fast and wouldn't have mattered anyway...
