The mod pile (and the mod bug) is growing

Ported E7 heads, Explorer GT40 intake, FRPP throttle body, underdrive pulleys....not pictured, Pypes off road x-pipe, and right now im trying to decide on what cam to get. :mrgreen:

cool! I was just reading a 5.0 ford build up today, aparently explorer parts are great!

almost as good as trick flow parts :wink:

the GT40 makes more power up to about 5300rpm, thats where the trick flow starts to overcome it...but i wish i knew you had the damn thing before i boguht this other intake. i actually have it for sale on corral just in case someone wants it lol

when r u putting that on the car?

FIX THE TRANS!!!!!!!!!!!!











then buy my 3.73s lol

i don't see the driver mod in the pile, so you are still screwed :p

when i get a cam and all the necessary stuff (rockers, pushrods, gaskets, etc) and find someone that wants to do it.

and paul....eventually ill fix it :lol:

who says i cant drive? ive driven multiple peoples cars faster than they could

the GT-40 intake is a great factory piece, dont get me wrong, but if you cam the motor its gonna want some more air :)

You know you are speaking in greek to most of the people on this site.. lol! Ian is correct depending on the cam your intake may be undersized. The 302 really likes to spin so anything you can do to get it up there will help. The last customers' Mustang I did picked up a bunch when we went to a bigger intake and plenum. Should run good if your combo is right.

Nice! You should be able to break 200 rwhp with those mods, right?:wink:

i'd sure hope so :lol: shooting for at least 250 at the wheels, hopefully closer to 300. I found out why i dynoed 184hp (besides it being a crappy dyno) my dist. rotor was bad, causing it to misfire, changed that and it runs mint now. hopefully ill be able to get it all together for the dyno day in march.

so .. what? Just cause its not a GM motor we don't know anything about it? :mrgreen:

diaf

Nice collection! Me and Alex hit up GI today, they had a few mustangs but nothing had any mass air stuff

I see your new lightweight spare on the top right corner of the picture also....

I did say most didnt I?

well yea you did BG Sr., hence the smiley at the end ..... like this ..... :mrgreen:

haha yeah im gonna run 2 of those on the front for skinnies

i actually do have a set of stock 15" 10 hole wheels sitting in the garage at work, for whenever i get drag radials

looking good Matt....Fox Bodies are god to ppl down here so if there are any parts up there you need and cant find let me know man

NEVER underestimate that little 5.0 Ford. With some spit and polish his car would humiliate close to half this board. Good luck with it, but get yourself the trickflow intake, the 302 like high RPM

im gonna try to, need to see what the wallet looks like after i buy all the valvetrain parts i need. im trying to run 12's with less than $1500 into the car...so far im sitting at about 600 with the heads and intake, and ive got all the stuff for the valvetrain at around 800, and the gasket set is around 100...so...im right at 1500

Personally if it was me I would do the intake and such now, maybe the cam, and save up for a good set of aluminum heads. I see alot of mid-low 12 5.0's that have just the trickflow top end and a cam (I'd have to find out what cam for you if you want to know). But I think if just 12's is what you are after you aren't going to have a problem with what you have. I think if the heads are done right that is an easy 12.7 in a GT.
