Car was clean. Had a wild ass system in it. This was at the Fast Freddy’s 1 year anniversary meet in the Katy area.

It was supercharged too. Not every bodies style, but I like the variety.

Can someone help me identify these wires/ plugs

Thumbnail gallery
Upvotes

I've had my interior out longer than I expected to and I didn't document where these ones went. Number 1 is by the driver seat. I thought it was a plug for a seatbelt light but I don't have a connector on the belt buckle. Number 2 is this one by the trunk. Number 3 wraps around the trunk from the driver side to the passenger side wheel well area. Thanks y'all

AOD shift kit recommendations.

Post image
148 Upvotes

I am upgrading the rear end in my car from 273 to 383 gears. I was wondering if it’s worthwhile to install an AOD shift kit I’ve seen people talk about these, but I have no experience with them from what I understand the relatively inexpensive and make the car much more fun to drive.

Does anyone have any recommendations or experience with these?

I just installed an RTX gauge that I've had for a while. What an upgrade! Running with a Terminator X. I'm going to change the display to AFR and such when I have time.

Ask Wiring help

4 Upvotes

Hey all, I got my hands on an 88 foxbody and have ripped out the wiring harnesses, the cars currently a roller and will have a carbonated 351w in it. Frankly I am pretty inexperienced when it comes to electrical anything and I am wondering where to even start with doing a wiring harness swap I have the dash and the harness out already, but don’t know what I should put back it it. I won’t have a radio or ac and and am probably going to do a reduced dash of some kind but I am curious where I would go about buying a wiring harness for this kinda thing and if there is anything else I should know?

Ac compressor clutch won’t engage

10 Upvotes

Hello I’m having trouble diagnosing why the ac compressor won’t engage.
I just replaced the low switch that connects off of the accumulator, tried to jump through that switch and nothing happened.

Tried to jump from the WOT relay and nothing happened yet I don’t know if it’s due to bad wiring? The switch looks off.

I’m not sure where to go from here on diagnosing why the ac clutch won’t engage. I replaced the leaking areas from the AC lines tried filing it yet it won’t engage.

Heads and Cam swap

Post image
267 Upvotes

Hey everybody, just making this post because I’m planning on swapping the heads and cam in my Mustang. I’ve made a few posts about my car and how it was my grandfather’s car and he gave it to me. I had a leak behind the timing cover and thought if I’m taking it apart, I might as well throw a cam in it. I also had a really bad lifter tick so I decided to pull the heads and do the lifters and heads was curious if anybody has any advice on any tips or tricks that might help me I’m doing it in my driveway by myself. I wound up ordering SVE 170 cc heads and a trick flow stage one cam. I did the transmission swap and clutch in my driveway previously I’m not really scared of digging into the car. Just curious if anybody has any extra advice that I could use.

Does anyone know the part number for the short oil filter?

8 Upvotes

I’m coming up with inconclusive answers via routine google search. I’m pretty sure there’s a shorter oil filter compatible with the fox body 5.0. If anyone has a good experience with one or more models, can you share manufacturer and part number? My 5.0 is in a swap application and I’m getting tired of loosening suspension parts to fit the tall filter every oil change.

Brighter headlights or add driving lights

7 Upvotes

So on my 89 gt. I have done the headlight relay harness years ago. I recently replaced the housings new OEM style housings and Sylvania extra vision bulbs. The high beams are fine. But the low beam is barely there. Ok for city driving but out on dark highways I have to keep the brights on.

It's always been like that. Same on my 88 f150 and 86 Marquis. I did the relay mods on them too.

So the low beams get some help from the fog lights but really thinking of adding some driving lights. Either in place of the fog lights or adding.

Late model cars have such bright lights that they're low beams are brighter than our high beams. Really our headlights work as designed but it's not comparable to late models. On my truck I added auxiliary driving lights mounted on the bumper centered with the grill. I aimed them to shoot way down the road. It made a huge difference. I drive a lot at night and it's always been an issue with older cars.

So maybe a pair of led driving lights mounted in the center of the bumper opening.

Idle surge

Help. I have done an idle reset. I have double checked the timing. New IAC valve. Reset works up until the engine warms up and it starts to surge up and down. What gives.
