[QUOTE="blackice, post: 772519, member: 10902"] [im doing a budget minded build] A couple micellaneous questions: I have a 95 GT, put heads off of a 97 explorer on it and the upper and lower intake, a F303 cam (i know there are bettter cams out there for the money..) Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator, 30lb injectors, trick flow elbow adaptor, 75 mm throttle body and an Anderson Ford Motorsports power pipe with a Pro-m mass air meter calibrated for the 30lbinjectors. Car already had Mac shorties, X-pipe, and Mac exhaust all the way back, no cats. 1.) What is the ideal timing for this set up? (with stock heads cam and intake i had it at 14 btdc) 2.) What is the ideal fuel pressure for this set up? (again, stock i had it at around 36-38lbs) 3.) Any advice on how to mount the power pipe in the SN-95? Cut part of the inner fender? Take the fender off? (i just have the mass air mounted to the throttle body with a rubber coupler for now just to set the timing and hear it run... 4.) What headers should i run, apparently the Mac short tubes i have arent meant for the Explorer heads because the spark plug holes come at a different angle and the #4 cylinder spark plug wont go in because it hits the header. (i had to put a big dent in the #4 exhaust tube, i know i shouldnt have but those headers are garbage anyways) 5.) What does the "spout in" chip do? I removed it and set the timing around 14btdc but it was having a hard time keeping idle around 600rpm (a bit low) After i set the timing i put the "spout in" back in and the car starts up but wont idle at all... Sorry for being all over the board here! It fired up and sounded great, cant wait to have it all done so i can put the gears in! [/QUOTE]
