    Hell yea! I started installing the cam and longtubes on my 93 gt. I ran into a snag though .........a bolt had broken of in one of the heads. Tried to drill it out but no go so i had a machine shop fix it. Cmk knows....... it was ugly. New gaskets from the heads up. It will fire up sunday evening. It will be glorius. I will love running the rpms at 2000 for 10-15 minutes with open headers. 😄 My neighbors will love it!!!!!!:icon_thumright: So it is official sunday will be a new holiday.

    Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car
    Oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
    Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall
    Torque is how far you take the wall with you

          Heres some pics for ya wes. As for the intake and stuff that will be next winters project. The headers are MAC 1 5/8 and the cam is ford racing E-303
          (282 duration and .498 lift). Im curious how much the Hp and torque will increase. Guess i'll have just have to wait until theis white stuff off the roads.

            Good stuff, it would be interesting to dyno before/after and see what the difference is.

              just fyi- but there is no need to run that @ 2000 RPMs for 15 min, it's a hyd roller, and I'm pretty sure you haven't replaced the lifters, so a warmup cycle, check for leaks and a few revs in the middle and your done. Been there done that, oh, a whole bunch!:) It may not run quite right either if you have no pipe behind the header, the O2s cool off so fast they become inaccurate and can stay stuck in open loop, or read inconsistently.

                Yeah I agree with Andy done plenty of 5.0 motor's and dont need to break in the cam just start and look for leaks on a roller. What are you doing with your old h-pipe?

                  I did replace the lifters guy and the timing chain and gears. As for the pipes i have the matching H-pipe just no cat-back system. I appericeiate all of the info though. Christian when i bought the car last summer it had a ghettofied cat-back sys. No h-pipe just individual pipes welded to the shorties.

                      Its all done! Ran it, checked for leaks.......lil coolant but it was fixed. Other than that it sounds sweet. You would never know it has a cam in it. 🙂
