Need to know where you are located and what year of Bird you are working on if you want any suggestions on body parts.
I have a 190 LPH Walbro intank pump in my car for over 10 years now. Plenty of fuel for a stock 5.0L HO and it's even quieter then my original factory pump. It was a drop in kit with filter sock, pump, hose, and mounting bracket but I forget where I purchased it. Are you still running factory ignition? If so, it may be breaking down at high rpm. Make sure your spark plug gap isn't too wide first though.
I put a Walbro 255hp in-tank in my '83. It wasn't a "drop-in" replacement, and took a little customization, but it's been working for years.
No details, as it was done a LOOOOONG time ago. I doubt I even have pictures. I know it involved a little cutting, some submersible-rated fuel line (don't cheap out here), and a hose clamp or two to keep the pump in place.
You run the same size at all four corners? If I go to 17’s that’ll give me more clearance from the quads
Yes I do. They're stock wheels off of a 2000 Mustang GT, but I figured that having the specs for them would help out a bit. I also have the car lowered a decent amount, but that shouldn't bear much change on quad shock clearance.
Have you done control arms yet?
I'm running a 245/45/17 on wheels which have 5.75" backspacing. I have about 1.5" between the tire and the quad, and about an inch from the tire to the fender lip.
Floor pans are different.
You'll either need to make your own, or find a clean car to cut floor pans out of.
Anybody know how big of a tire we can fit on these cars with quad shocks in place? I don’t have any on the car, but would like to run them.
Depends on wheel offset as well. What wheels are you planning on running?
