currently not running maf. 88 speed density. if i want to use the 24's i'll need a maf?

also, i got the lower intake installed, gaskets and sealant. on the heads (stock) there is a small hole, looks to be just drilled out and goes nowhere that is dead center near the top of each head. the hole does not go all the way through the head, and there arent any other passageways for the holes. my main concern is when the lower is on, a bit of the hole is showing above the intake. is that ok????? gaskets are on and torqued per specs. ((didnt snap a bolt this time)). when i had the lower first off, the hole was full of gunk/dirt. problems??

well after looking around, found out the the other injectors that i thought were 24's are actually 19's. so ok. now i think one of the pindle pieces coming off the stock stang injectors ended up breaking. from what i think i read before, its trashed now. correct? any issue in mixing the 2 different 19# injectors or just use all the ones from the explorer

got the upper on now. very slow, taking time process.

i obviously know that i want to use the larger 65mm explorer tb, but since the stock egr block is a bit smaller than thet 65mm, Will the air flow be obstructed when it goes through the tb and then hits the smaller egr?

thinking that the smoother airflow from the stock tb may be better but asking sugg/opinions.

You can mix and match the injectors, but it would be best to use all from one car.

You more than likely can't use the Explorer TB, without modifing it. There is a difference in the linkage I believe. Google it.

i've been through those links. i just put all the explorer injectors on. the explorer tb will have to be modified a little. nothing too much but was concerned about the airflow using the 65mm tb with mustang stock egr that is smaller than the 65mm.
