I appreciate the offer, but I've already ordered up the CJ from AM. The overnight was $40 and I'd probably spend that in gas coming to get it.

I also decided to do an EVAP delete to try and clean up some of the lines under the car.

Got the wiring loomed up, fuel system is finished, EVAP deleted, and the pulse ring is here. We need to make a bracket for the PS reservoir, but the car should be running in a few hours.

What are you running for an exhaust - truck headers, stock 5.0 Mustang H, which cat back?


Excited to hear it run, hope you've got a potato cam handy.

Mustang manifolds, truck would never fit. Stock H 5.0 H, FR500s with 3V over axles.

She lives! There are some gremlins to sort, and I will post a video later.

Took it out, did some logging, and had a big grin on my face the whole time. Didn't get on it too hard because I'm not sure if the tune is totally safe. I'm sure it is since it is just an FRPP control pack tune, but better safe than sorry. AFR looked good, but I need a second (better) opinion. The AC and reverse lights need to be done tomorrow, the exhaust is getting changed to GTBs because it's so loud. We also need to make sure the speed sensor is working right since its reading way high, despite having the correct gear ratio and tire size. We might have fried it earlier today.

Congrats on getting it running and next sorting out the little things. Then some fun.....

How does it feel compared to a 3v?

So much better. It almost doesn't feel fast because of how smooth it is, but it revs quickly and I'm doing 100+before I know it.

AC works now. Just small things to finish up.

Thanks guys!

Time to choose my badges. I have Mustang badges here and F150 on the way. F150 would be great because it's a truck engine, but I like the Mustang better.

I dunno. Your volt gauge looks to be. 02 volts low. Tear it apart and try again
