And that intake has a huge funnel like thing at the bottom of the front bumper that connects to that air box. I think I've seen that intake on a Cervini ad on a MM&FF mags

Pretty dead here today

I hate working on rust buckets like that 91. Wherever I hit the stupid rivets, there was a rust downpour on the cardboard I was using to crawl under it, and even while taking a shower, I smelled rust Glad my car and my buddies aren't like that.

I actually had part of one, the big piece that goes from filter to fascia, for a little while. got it in a package deal with the supercharger, and sold it along with it.

My first car was an 89 Firebird and I loved the way the seats in that car were. Never have i ever found seats that i was that comfortable in.

My GT's seats all the way down are perfect for me. I hate being in my mom's car and it feeling like I'm looking down at the road.

that reinforcement plate is a b**** to remove. The floorpan is heavily rusted as you can notice.

Note where the brake line was cut and bended. A red neck-ghetto fix indeed. Now, I'll have to redo almost half of the stupid brake line.
Wow. Thank God my floorpans don't look like that.

Seriously though, IDK where all that snow came from. I am about 15 min south of the stadium and there is no snow here at all.
Well that proves it. God is a Cowboys fan, but I guess Jesus is a Pats fan.

Do what i did in a similar situation (though for chemistry)

go buy a 16oz pepsi, or if you prefer, and i know you do , coke

drink 8oz of it

fill defecit with rum

go to class

consume

arin did this for chem once, and passed a 3 hour exam in 20 minutes with a B+. i had gone to 3/5 lectures and only stayed awake for the entire duration once.

if i had done the captain morgan pose while turning it in i would have attained maximum awesomeness. But you, nathan, YOU can correct my mistake. Don't forget the pose!

Later Nathan

I got the BBK CAI in the vert today.

I got the fender style one. It sucked because I had to take the passenger front wheel off and move the wheel well liner out of the way to get up in there to tighten the filter on. It looks so much better in the car. It's shiny for sure.

While I was in there I thoroughly cleaned the throttle body. It was dirty as f***. And I cleaned the MAF housing and I adjusted the TV cable on the throttle body. Then I also did a Sea Foam cleaning in the intake for the injectors.

Impressions...car continues to run better and better. It never ran bad. But it runs **** good for a stock Mustang from 1991.


I also put some Sea Foam in the intake and did that cleaning,

Also...

WTF is up with the silencer thingy. What a piece of **** that thing is. That suckers gone.

And after looking at the MAF housing and the throttle body, these will be upgraded sooner than later. 55mm is freaking small. I'm gonna go with the 73mm MAF housing and the 70mm Throttle body.

Question is do I stay with 19 pound or go to 24 pound injectors.

Stay with the 19 Pounders until you go changing heads cam or intake

that stuffs waaaaay overkill for a stock motor. you wont even need to touch it till you start modding elsewhere. If anything, most folks move up to 65mm and leave it there, unless they go crazy with boost, which i dont think you had in your plans

94-95 Mustangs came stock with 70mm throttle bodies, and 65mm mass air.

Sounds good to me.

So when I change my intake, get my AFR heads, and my E cam next year, then I change to 24's.

How does a person 'tune' these cars. With the '07 you use a handheld tuner and such to adjust the ECM. The '91 still has a ECM, though I'm guessing its much less advanced. I don't see 'tuners' for these cars. Obviously they don't have the OBDII port. That didn't come about till '96 I think. So the ECM is set and there is no changing it. All you can do is adjust throttle linkage, injector size, intake size, and timing, etc.? These cars are only mechanically tuned?
