500 CFM Holley carb need a 350 CFM carb

 

Dude...someone needs to come over and beat you with some wire loom. Please, for the sake of everything 12V DC, put those wires in some loom!!!

Here's my 2.5 at the peak of it's performance...lol....I later realized I was only getting such awesome gas mileage because I was missing half of the engine;

 

-current
93 ranger

87 tbird


-past
89 ranger

 

yeah i got to find out what wire i need and what wire i don't need. it was a EFI now it's . carbureted and i need to find another carb. this one too big.

 

and you are a turbo nut... love it

 

but then where will the rats live?

got a thing for turbo 4 bangers? you should find an SVO...

 

that's a 89?


it looks a bit newer like a 93 or something. what's up with the grill?
is it custom or am i going to find something new about the ranger.
a 89

 

oh i see
its flat out customed
looks good man

 

 

wow
how does it run?

 

Better than it did N/A, but I am still waiting on a tune so it is really rich and won't run below 2000rpm.

 

i got to see that run!

 

yes, videos or it doesn't exist!

good call kris!

 

The tune should be in in a couple days, I will post videos when I get it. I will probably just make a new thread instead of posting them in the build thread.

 

cool

 

why? my tbird handles better and looks better than an SVO already....
i swapped to a mazda navajo clip. thanks

 

Still has that new engine smell!






9:1 cr pistons



That was my 2.3L :).

 

anyone else? come on 2.3 pic
show your 2 3

 

I'll play, but mine is the 2.3l diesel.

 

MITSU NO COUNT!

 

Double count, just because it sucks diesel

 

i knew they made a 2.3 diesel, but this is the first time i seen one.

yes it counts, and if you got a 2.5 or an old 2.0 show it off!!!

 

Good deal. I fired it up after sitting in 0*F temps for a week, started right up, no problems.
