So my stang started running like shit. Sounded like an exhaust leak and it kept bogging down. I pulled coils and spark plugs, thinking the bogging problem was a misfiring problem. God damn they looked like shit and shit as in REALLY REALLY BAD. Corrosion every were lol., I Also pulled out the injectors and they fell apart….lame

Then I started trying to find that hissing leak. I put my hands over her voluptuous tail pipes earlier and heard no leeks but it only hissed when I was accelerating. I still checked my headers and piping n shit just to make sure they were good. They were, so I started tinkering and found the gaskets on my intake manifold were shit. Like eaten through. Chunks of aluminum were missing around the lower intake manifold to totally top off my night of corrosion.
Then I noticed some seepage from my valve covers. My valve cover seals are shit too.

So since I tore her down that far im not putting her back together till I get the fallowing.

Iridium Spark Plugs
Motoblues performance coils
Stage 2 CAMS from CRANE
Valve springs/seals
New Head Gasket
I’m porting/polishing when I pull the cams.
New fuel injectors.*
Might need new vacuum hoses too god damn it.

So what kinda fuel injectors would work best with what I got going so far.


Any advice at all would be sweet. On anything.
I’m tired been up all night with all these surprises so sorry for any typos.

Oh ya. I learned so far to NOT forget to to drain your coolant before for start fucken with the manifold

i would think 42 lb fuel injectors would be good. where do you live that has that much corrosion.

42lb injectors would be too much, stock would even work for ya. I was using stock with my built motor, heads and cams. I upgraded to 30lb just because of the nitrous

[barksdaleammo]

i stand corrected by the master.

live in SLC utah.

what bout 32 lb for a mildly built block. I plan on TT'ing some t3/t4's to her later in the summer at low boost so will 32-36lb work for both tt and a stock block? Have my own turbo build in the making (based maily from sts) but i'll post that up when i start it.
Thanks for the replies. Im stoked i finally started.

[barksdaleammo]

that sucks you had much corrosion. i definitly would be a lil pissed. im think about going to hpperformance and getting their twin-turbo as soon as i get some bills paid.

Nice bro. well race n see who can get it done first lol
should i get a new lower manifold or would a good gasket work. No half assen
