    My 72 Mach 1 ongoing Project Thread

    It was a while back now but I did get this thing out racing a 3rd time a while back; ended up 3rd in points in the street class for the year (one round away from 2nd but I red lit by just a hair) I did manage a [email protected] mph out of the bolt on low compression 4v cleveland, not too shabby, and a...

    Get Mach1 into 12.5 second zone

    Awesome thread, from what I see by your mph the launch is holding you back a bit but not too terribly, my 4v OC cleveland ran 14.5 @99.8mph with a DA around 2700 (stock heads and bottom end, headers, torker intake ezefi throttle body) this year with worse 60' then you; I know that my main issue...

    My 72 Mach 1 ongoing Project Thread

    Got up to Calgary over the weekend and hit the pick n pull and came out with a 3.50 gear 31 spline 9" posi center section that will fit right in the mustang for $100. Plan on swapping it in after the next race weekend to keep it going while I look at re clutching the posi that's in it now with...

    The strips website put up a decent little shot of me just before the burn out too. Thought it was worth sharing. Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    My 72 Mach 1 ongoing Project Thread

    Been a while so I have some more updates I got the car running much better since switching to a different distributor with large cap adapter and re-curving it, and put in a start retard computer to get my initial timing up and took it back to the strip; The little changes made up the grunt I...

    My 72 Mach 1 ongoing Project Thread

    Well I took the Mach 1 to the strip; I was expecting it to run pretty slow but it was even a bit slower then I was expecting. The car has a pretty good sized Erson cam (I don't have the card but I believe the specs to be a hydraulic 296* duration cam with .545 lift on a 108* lobe separation...

    Who is using EFI in their cars

    I'm running fast efi 1.0 The car runs better then it did with the 750dp but still has a few quirks due to the low vacuum (6-7inHg at idle). Cold start is ok but you need to keep it running for the first 15 seconds or so. the system supports up to 650hp. I'm running on a 4v OC Cleveland with...

    Self learning EFI settings for Cleveland

    They have come a long way and the 2.0 system is much nicer then what I have, I am still very happy with how its performing for the money I've spent though. My setup cant control timing electronically; in the future I may look at getting a programmable ignition box though, for the time being I...

    Self learning EFI settings for Cleveland

    It has a map sensor but no controls in the system I have. The 1.0 system really is pretty bare bones as it was one of the first reliable setups on the market. You can get a handheld upgrade that opens up some additional setting options though; and it's a much nicer touch screen. I got the...

    Self learning EFI settings for Cleveland

    I never considered the differences in ratios for e10 fuels jbojo; I currently would have a mix of E10 and pure gas in my car (closest station to me has the up to 10% ethanol stickers on the pumps, but the previous gas was straight gas) Some great info there. The ezefi 1.0 doesn't have cam...

    Self learning EFI settings for Cleveland

    Vacuum gauge sounds like a good idea to me. I have one handy and ready to go. This thing only pulled like 8in of vacuum off the holley 750dp the sensor is according to where it should be and I just did good gaskets for safe measure Sent from my SM-G920W8 using Tapatalk

    Self learning EFI settings for Cleveland

    I run my supercharged 4 cylinder cougar at 14.7 at cruise, this car just doesn't seem to like it. I may try leaning it out too and see what works best. My system can't control timing, and I'm running of a dizzy without vacuum advance at the moment. I'd have to put the light on it to get exact...

    Self learning EFI settings for Cleveland

    Hi, with more and more people utilising the growing market of bolt on efi options I thought it would be an interesting idea to share what everyone is using for settings. Mine is: FAST Ezefi 1.0 4v open chamber headed cleveland with flat top pistons Edlebrock Torker intake Hooker longtube...

    My 72 Mach 1 ongoing Project Thread

    Got some pictures of putting the interior back in the car; My headliner is in....but not good; The aftermarket sunroof in this car made it a real challenge. I decided to just deal with some creasing as this is a car for myself to have fun in. the carpet and fold downs went smoothly, I dont...

    351C vs 429

    There is a few things to the swap but the parts are available. You'll need a different transmission for the big block belhousing, exhaust manifolds/headers, mounts..... ideally small hands

    Holley Sniper EFI and RobbMC Surge Tank, 351c and FMX

    I also installed 02 sensor just after the flange for my longtube headers on the passenger side. Ideal would have been just before the collector (in the header itself) but it is just far less work to remove the exhaust pipe to work on then the header. Less gaskets for the exhaust to flow through...

    My 72 Mach 1 ongoing Project Thread

    Misfire solved, revs strong now to 5900 (as far as I wanted to go for now) It was either old gas or the rpm module in the msd box. I added some 91 octane and pulled the 8000rpm module that was in the 6al and it ran great. Just finishing up the interior now, do a bit of body work to seal it up...
