Modded 86 Slower than V6
Here is a run down of the Mods I was told were done:
bored out 30 thousands Motorsport roller cam & roller lifters (282 duration, 498 lift) complete head rebuild (shaved 10 thousands) stock headers (They are not, they look like long pipes) Flowmaster exhaust with H Pipe no cats Hypertech chip K&N drop in air filter World Class T5 In the paperwork I recieved I found some info. Grind Number M-6250-E303 Rocker Arm Ratio: 1.60 Max Lift Intake and Exhaust 110 for both Cam Lift .311 (Int and Exh) Valve Lift .498 (Int and Exh) Cam Timing @ .004 Tappet Lift: Intake Opens 28 BTDC Closes 74 ABDC Dur 282 Exhaust Opens 68 BBDC Closes 34 ATDC Dur 282 Cam Timing @ .050 Tappet lift: Intake Opens 0 BTDC Closes 40 ABDC Dur 220 Exhaust Opens 40 BBDC Closes 0 ATDC Dur 220 The car is SLOW, I thought so before but have been driving faster cars and thought maybe my memory was off. Today on the way home a ratty Neon with dual exhaust and fart cans was lined up at the light, I could just barely beat him and his exhaust smoked at each take off like the rings were shot. The car sounds good, but never seems to kick down or throw you back at all. For now I just want to get it running right, (at least as fast as stock) after awhile I can look into other mods. It also idles between 1000 and 1500, I mean it goes up and down. Also while driving if the RPM's are below 2000, the car kind of jerks or surges. Any ideas what to check? It sounds like Speed Density problems from what I read. Also how do I know what fuel injectors I have? Mine look yellow or orange. (I'm truly "color deficient" I can see colors but varying shades of the same color look the same) Thanks, __________________ Sam Woodson Harvest, AL 1986 Mustang GT Convertible 5spd |
