I'm running the Explorer upper and lower, I never bothered to drill and tap that hole. I laid the sensor on the lower, and it's been there ever since. It runs fine, and I haven't had any issues.

Thanks guys.

ORIGINAL: red95gtconvert

I reused my rockers and pushrods from my stock E7's on my GT40P's when I installed them, they fit perfectly.

you dont happen to know what power your putting down wit those mods do you?
No, I have never had it dynoed before but I can tell you the car "feels" fast now and runs alot stronger than it did when it was stock.

Another question, besides looking for cracks is there any way of telling if there are anything wrong with the heads, they look good just want to make sure. Also how much a resurfacing usually goes for

I stand by my original "You could cut it off and weld it back on the other way, but it's likely not worth it."


haha ya i agree dont waste ur time. it would be much easier to get a mustang TB. i was just sayin you could and gave him the option. i thought about it for a while but screw it.

and id like to kno how much (roughly) it would cost for tanking & decking and maybe a valve job aswell. thanx so that i dont get ripped off
