    GMS TB + CAI mix & match?

    And just to reiterate here to you Mr. 'Boss' Perhaps I shouldn't have called out the entire forum, but man, what a condescending bunch of BS. This initial thread I started @ 2am my time waiting for my girl to get down a freeway from work. There is nothing wrong with my car whatsoever. I've...

    GMS TB + CAI mix & match?

    Oh I think I can understand how a fucking engine works. I also can grasp I can't adjust shit like air/fuel/spark without some all important plug in device (unless I master some software) Fuck what an asshole. Fuck this stupid forum.

    GMS TB + CAI mix & match?

    There's no venturi tube in either intake (just MAF plugin) They are different diameter (Airaid is larger In diameter) I was curious if the 62 vs 55 mm TB would offset that. I have a tune for the 62 plus the Airaid, but I can't transfer it to my X4 tuner because that function just went AWOL on me...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Pretty much true for the majority of stuff. Then there's a number of things like the factory rear control arms, alternator (or the shifter for that matter) which are ill-designed. I couldn't stand the rubbery feeling factory shifter at all. Even when I got a replacement Hurst short-throw (it...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Yes, the electric pump would be nice to have. They are pushing $550 now last I checked. I was skeptical years back with the electric stuff, until I gat a Holley blue fuel pump that would fill a swimming pool in so many minutes. Even if the belt fails in some way, you're still cooled. Then you...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Or I could get my refund without all that (which is what's already happening) I was just looking for an explanation is all. So issue resolved.

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    I would, but the stock one functions fine. I just picked up the Edelbrock in addition to an aluminum radiator I have yet to drop in. Wonder if there's a weep hole in the electric model Mezieres?

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Really? You think I should have to pay $230 for a water pump and resort to doing that?

    GMS TB + CAI mix & match?

    I've got the 'Ford Performance' replacement TB on the car (essentially the same as the factory 55 mm TB) with Airaid CAI. No problems whatsoever with it running right now on a canned 89 octane tune. Few years back I got a smoking deal on a GMS 62 mm unit off of ebay. This is when my X4 tuner...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Edelbrock pump? First pic is the stocker, second is the Edelbrock. Also as indicated, there's a weep hole on the pump advertised on site @ AM. Honestly, if given some explanation as to perhaps it's not really required somehow, I'd bolt it up to the car vs the refund.

    Calyx for Factory Manifolds.

    Final word on the manifold. Touched down to the high 40s here last night, so early morning condensation & moisture. Opened the hood and zero effect on where I left off on it. So I rubbed more of the product on to cover the entire manifold. Started the car and let it warm to full operating temp...

    Calyx for Factory Manifolds.

    Some thinking out loud as far as the damper pulley goes. It's about on par with the manifolds (just an eye sore whenever you unlatch the hood and peer down the front of the engine) I had intended to just go Rustoleum rusty metal primer with a few coats of Rustoleum satin (semi-gloss) black on...

    Calyx for Factory Manifolds.

    Update on this... Below is after about 20 minutes of rubbing it into the manifold (or less time I spent on hold today to Edelbrock) That's with a teeny, tiny amount out of the container. Calling it a day because I'm getting low on daylight. I have yet to heat cycle it (run the car), but overall...

    Calyx for Factory Manifolds.

    Because everybody's on the edge of their seats, some shots of the big-bad three-valve so far. Last one is of the passenger manifold after being scrubbed down awaiting this magic rub in restorer. You can also see how the blue coating just popped off the lettering on those spendy blue cam covers...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Experiencing high volume calls. Timing I guess. But yeah, the stocker has a weep hole as does the preview of the Edelbrock on the AM site.

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    No freeze plug. Just the four bolt up holes. And to the other commenter, yeah I bought idk how many Edelbrock carbs in the past (never an issue) Only thing odd I can recall, I bought a set of the chromed out autogauge triples back in 1996. Never hooked them up, I went with non-chromed black...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    I dinged that number (press 8 for water pumps) Worse than unemployment. Half hour of listening to the hold jingle before I just hung it up. I've had enough time wasted without that. The entire aftermarket is going like this, from SCT to whoever. I ordered a set of Howards cams from the AM site...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    I've googled up a storm and found nothing. The number I will possibly try later. I'm just curious if I have some rare one-off factory defect or something.

    What is this engine noise? pinging/tapping/knocking

    Take apart and inspect the CAI system nearest the air filter. If worm gear clamps were overly tightened, they can push down into sections of the CAI system, (cracking and forcing them inward) which inhibits air volume. Canned tunes can also generate sounds you'd swear needs to be solved with...

    Alternator Working Intermittently

    You've already been given great advice. My only recommendation (if you can swing it somehow) would be ditch the lead/acid and go AGM (red optima) for the battery. Nice car BTW. I have the same thing (only hardtop with dove interior and factory "18 fan blades) The dove interior is the drawback...

    Calyx for Factory Manifolds.

    Been in the process of freshening up the engine bay on the Mustang ('06 GT). As far as mods go, it's an Airaid + tune (so it's fairly stock beyond that minus suspension mods) I installed the Ford Racing blue cam covers a few years back and am sort of tying in a blue theme under hood. One mention...

    Edelbrock Water Pump No Weep Hole

    Have a 2006 GT and as the thread indicates, I ordered an Edelbrock water pump back in July along with Cold Case radiator (never got around to putting either into the car yet) Anyway on the pump, unlike even the preview shots of it from the vendor (AM) there is no weep hole anywhere on the body...
