Ryan218 Posted May 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 Appreciate it. Well it's not running 100% when its cold it don't like to idle smooth, or rev. Bogs down and loads up. After it warms up it idles like it should and revs as it should. Gonna to see if I can pull some codes from it and start from there. If not may see about a base tune for it.

Most likely just needs a tune and it will be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan218 Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Running a little better now. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/th_trim.C9395A1B-9800-4D20-A329-A5D93EED208C.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan218 Posted May 14, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 14, 2015 Took it on a 10 mile drive last night. Runs good after its warmed up. Acts like a carbed car when cold. Speedo is off by 20mph for some reason. Time to schedule a tune. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/image_33.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan218 Posted May 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Well a new issue has poped up. Apperently c head swap and c&l intake do not like to clear that factory hood. By a lot. I post a few pictures in the morning. Don't clear where the vent is on the cobra hood on the passenger side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DKilbourne Posted May 16, 2015 Report Share Posted May 16, 2015 Easy enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan218 Posted May 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Easy enough That's my thought. Decided I'm going to start with the suspension now. Decided to start easy. Made a rear shock brace for it. Don't know how much it will help but it was cheap and easy to make. Now to decide if I want to make my own sub frame connectors. Pretty sure when welding them in you are to have the suspension loaded? http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/image_36.jpg Edited May 18, 2015 by Ryan218 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Glad you didn't switch the hood. Looking good. That's the best hood ever put on a mustang factory or aftermarket. Nothing even comes close imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing even comes close imo I agree 100% on that. Gave it the first bath it's had in over a year. Also pulled the diff cover and found it has 4.10's added bonus. Now to correct the speedo. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/image_39.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan218 Posted May 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 (edited) Mustang is getting tuned on Friday. My boss bought a wrecked Mach 1 as a dooner car for its drivetrain for a 63 Galaxy. So I bought the interior from him to swap into my cobra. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/image_40.jpg http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/image_41.jpg Edited May 21, 2015 by Ryan218 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeitgeist57 Posted May 20, 2015 Report Share Posted May 20, 2015 Well, that f**king worked out nicely. :thumbup: No wonder the Mach1 was wrecked...it's an automatic. http://big.assets.huffingtonpost.com/11201crying1.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan218 Posted May 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Yeah my boss bought it out of Kentucky. Not using the cluster though. No way to make the odometer work that I know of. Mustang gets tuned Friday at Brian's. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g226/ryan218/Mobile%20Uploads/th_trim.1C7975CC-8FE4-4663-BD74-55C55B972D62.mp4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
