I had this weird dream last night about my 1996 Mustang GT and figured I would write this little rant about the "SLOWNESS FACTOR". :-D I had so much pride in that car and I loved every minute of it but it was by far the slowest car in the world!!
I installed every bolt on to make this thing...
I am an Apten man myself and I wish Ken and the boys much luck and success in future ventures. Apten brought everything to the public for us during the early stages of the ported eatons and I look forward to seeing a very successful future for them along with MD.
Here is some information I...
Ok guys.
I have brand new 55# Injectors and Harness's in my closet collecting dust.
Along with a Pro-M 92mm MAF calibrated for them possibly being ordered.
I am looking at installing these more as a safety blanket for my vehicle but do you guys think I can pull any more ponies out of the...

What size belt should I use for a 3.50 (13lb.) inch upper and 4# lower crank pulley on a KB or Whipple?
There will be no aux. idlers in the setup..
Thanks,

First, please read my previous post (ignore the ignorant arguing and focus on the direct points):

I now feel obligated to explain to everyone why this thread was started. I really did not want to release this information...
Dirty Sanchez, I am glad you brought this up. Especially with all the recent upper/lower pulley combos and high boost applications like myself. This is a great question considering that out of all the post responses to my upper/lower combo results, not one person brought up the detrimental...
Ok guys. Just to bring back a little information from the past to refresh your memories:
I did the Apten Port job a couple of months ago as you all know. I posted my results on here and I cant say I wasnt satisfied. My horsepower numbers were encroaching 500rwhp and my torque was "OK". I lost...
Anyone that is using MJ's Mafxtender, what do you have the DIP setting on?
Would you use the ONE DIP SETTING that extends the MAF range to 5.0 - 5.5 volts?
Or the TWO DIP SETTING that extends the maf range to 5.5 - 6.0 volts?
I plan on installing and tuning my 4# lower setup tomorrow...
Guys.
Theoretically speaking lets say you had a ported eaton car with a 2.93 upper/4# lower combo. You had 55lb. injectors, the mafxtender, and fuel pumps.
What is the largest nitrous shot theoretically and safely possible?

Guys.
November 5th as some of you already know I will be testing out my idea about increasing the boost on the Apten Oval Port to see if this cures my low torque numbers and puts me in the 500/500 club.
I will be installing a LFP 4# lower pulley kit w/78" Gatorback Belt.
Also, I will be...
The thread title speaks for itself.
I am just curious..
The cost of your average dyno if you were to purchase them for a shop or garage setup. I mean what are we looking at here? $10, $15K ??
Guys.
If you are thinking of ordering a clutch quadrant/firewall adjuster kit and buying the PREMIUM AFTERMARKET CABLE DO NOT DO IT!
Only order the Firewall Adjuster and actual Clutch Quadrant. DONT BUY THE CABLE. The OEM Ford cable is the best around.
I put the aftermarket cable/kit in and...
This might have been posted already but I know many of you including myself have been having a weird surge almost like a misfire at part throttle in the RPM range from 1400 to 1900.
This started @ around 500 miles for me after the CAI and Pulley swap. I had dealt with it for a long time...
Guys I want to stress that I cooked this up on my editing software in like 30 minutes. I WANT TO APOLOGIZE FOR THE POOR VIDEO QUALITY AND ANGLES

Ok guys. As you all know I was supposed to get my 4# lower installed and tuned today. However, it still hasnt arrived in the mail. I was planning on going to Mustang Magic anyway so I decided to do some other installs because I am a very impatient person and NEED MORE MODS. haha
Ok here are...

Guys with a 2.93 upper and 4lb. lower is the underdrive alternator pulley needed to reduce overspinning and destroying it?
Also, what gatorback or gates belt would fit this setup with no idlers?
Thanks in advance.

What do you guys think? Can I put maybe a 1/4 bottle of water wetter in the supercharger intercooler tank? Or would it be detrimental to the intercooler?

How long has your terminator been ticking?
Mine has been ticking for 9500 miles and shes been fullly modded since 300 miles on the odometer.

What do you guys think?
Will I be safe on the street running the extra 4lb lower with 18lbs. of boost without changing the MAF, Fuel Pumps and Injectors?
Thanks.
