    Split Port, Windstar Intake, Injector Swap, Swap MAF?

    I did a split port head swap, along with a windstar intake and 21# injectors. I'm trying to tune part/wide open throttle using SCT Advantage but I'm having issues with it adjustments to the MAF transfer function not affecting AFR at all. When you guys do this swap, do you also use a windstar or...

    SCT Advantage Tuning Software Setup

    I just got the Advantage III software for my 3.8 Mustang, and when I start with the JPA1 tune I see a very limited parameter list, mostly auto transmission controls. Is this just because of the JPA1 processor code I'm using, is there a better code to start with? I used JPA1 because that is what...

    Wiring Aftermarket Cooling Fan without factory fuse box

    I'm trying to wire an aftermarket cooling fan using the factory PCM cooling fan output wire to trigger the cooling fan relay. I don't have the factory fuse box under the hood, just a simply relay to control the cooling fan. Using the tuner I adjusted the cooling fan to turn on at 205°F, but...

    1997 3.8L Priming Oil System on Fresh Rebuild

    Thanks, but it doesn't show what direction it actually spins. From what I can see the camshaft is spinning clockwise, and if the gear is in front of the camshaft gear, it would spin clockwise. If behind, it would be counterclockwise. But I can't see the orientation of where the gear on the...

    I'm going to prime my 1997 3.8L engine and I just wanted to verify, I would spin the priming tool counterclockwise with my drill to prime the oil system? Or would it be clockwise? Thank you.

    Need Advice on Tuning 3.8

    No PCM inputs are different, only the emissions components that are deleted. It has the stock MAF sensor. I looked into the Mongoose Flash Cable and it is about $450, is that the one you are talking about?

    Water Pump Pulley With 6-Rib Pattern?

    We are running only the water pump and aftermarket alternator on our 3.8 engine. The current water pump pulley we have is just flat (no grooves), so we would need to run an idler pulley on the opposite side to make it work. If we could find a 6-rib pulley then we can setup the belt easily. Do...

    3.8L Retrofit Tuning Questions

    It sounds good, but at about $750 that is out of my budget. I liked the quarterhorse and tunerpro RT or EEC Editor combo, because it was under $300. Have you used those before?
