What's up guys finally got her running...kind of. Motor cranked but wouldn't start. Had fuel pressure at the rail. Getting spark. Nothing. Then shot some fuel in the intake and she fired up. Once we got ur running we kept adding fuel in the intake and it would keep running. It has to be somewhere in the injection. Let me know what u guys think. Thanks

sounds like your IAC is stuck open. I blocked mine off with a small piece of hose crammed inside the opening of the IAC.....

www.buystifflers.com has your crossmember for GM T56 to `94 up Mustang. It's a real nice part. This is what I am using.

Thanks guys appreciate it! I had it street tuned not dyno. Estimated 380ish. Way different car then with the 4.6 it had. I did just purchased an ls6 intake which should help a little. I dunno what to do next. Either 243 and a bigger cam or I want to go turbo. Who knows got all winter to decide!

I used to have a 04 gt that made 400 rwhp, but it had cams, bolt ons, AND a 100 shot. I often used to think it would have been the perfect car if it had a LS1 in it, and here you went and did exactly that lol

Ya man its a blast..the thing is the mustang guys are like well I'm pushing 400. And I'm like ya but look at all the stuff u got done. I'm not far over stock. The Ls motors just have so much more potential. Its amazing.

I owned an S351 for a few years and for a while that was the best car I've ever owned. You should call that an S346. That'll **** off the blue oval guys

This winter I have picked up an ls6 intake, 243 heads, 238/240 comp cam, PRC 650 dual springs and monster clutch. I re did my wiring harness with all new wire wrap. Re painted my engine bay. Now to get it all back together and have some fun. Pics should be coming soon. I'll also post pics.of how I did my hydrolic clutch conversion and all those goodies! Thanks guys!
