    You can use a steptap without pulling the head. A good glob of wheel bearing grease on the starting end of the tap and also in the flutes of it should catch probably 99% of the aluminum flakes and...

    If that plug was from one of those highly complex and difficult to tune carbureted engines, I'd say it was running rich.

    you probably have a bad engine ground, higher resistance means lower amperage. also clean and file the back of the alternator where the long bolt goes into engine. If it is a chrome alternator file...

    The binder spec sheet for my 427r engine calls for the Autolite 605's. Engine was built in 2013. Fred

    Good plan Mike, I was making my recommendation based on someone else's post, which I don't normally do since it could steer you wrong. It is quite possible Roush counterbored the spark plug...

    I know we're not talking FEs, but I will tell you my spark plug story anyway. My engine builder recommended Champion RC9YC5 Spark Plugs, which are one step colder than the plugs Edelbrock recommends...

    Roush dynos their crate motors, like yours. When they go through their tuning process, on the dyno, they will use different heat range plugs until they get the kind of power curve they want. If...

    I found it easier to have the diff sitting vertical on the jack at the lowest part of the aft cover. Jack it slowly and tilt the nose down as it comes up. You want to make sure the jack has a bearing...

    Use one of the Ford 8.8" aluminum IRS center sections out of an Explorer or a T-Bird, an 03/04 SVT Cobra or a MK VIII. Have your local fab shop build the bracketry to mount it. The one on the left...

    If the differential is tapped M14 x 2.00, the only way to tap it to 1.50 mm pitch is to go larger (e.g. M16 x 1.50). As noted by Dominik, the 2.00 mm pitch has a smaller thread root diameter than the...

    I don't know how badly they are scratched and you may have already thought of it but can you clean the up and polish them with some scotch brite or are they that far gone.

    Try adjusting the idle mixture screws to see if this makes a difference.Also make sure they are set the same or very close to the same.
