MTQuest

Thanks Tux. I found the right up finally. The search engine on here is terrible BTW lol. Here is the link for the BBK this guy made. I wish I had the time and the tooling to be able to fab up a bracket as nice as his. http://www.starquestclub.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=117699&view=&hl=crown vic&fromsearch=1

On the revolution site there are two different sizes for the from 302mm and 330mm. Is this actually front and rear and just a typo? Also, I cannot find the write up on the 300zx brake bracket how to anywhere. Any one have that link?

Hey, I'm trying to find a passenger side fender. Im Located in Missoula MT. I don't care what color just looking for a straight, low to no rust fender. I know shipping on those flimsy things is just about impossible so I'm hoping to find one that is near Montana. I have one but someone has bonded the hell out of it and it is creased at the door. Thanks in advance. Send me an Email at anythingtech22@gmail.com if someone has one!

I'm sure some one else will pipe in for your concern BandY but while I'm on here... The vac advance has a little arm, that very brittle, possible that it fell off/broke off inside of the distributer and there for is not pulling on the distributer throws. Or, I've heard of the distributer throws/arms/weights, the moving parts that let the distributer advance or retard, , get gunked up and will not move freely when placed under vacuum.

Thanks for the simple break down MikeC. Didn't even think to try and manually pull the vaccume down. That's what ill try out today. All most positive I was sold a defective part. I am correct in saying that the vac port closest to the front of the engine in the row of three is the correct port for the advance pot right? Ive went through and deleted all vac lines except for the advance, aftermarket BOV, and Vac storage can for the heater controls.

I gave them my info, but it was 'BautoZone. Everything matches up way to closely if it is possible lol.

To my understanding the vacuum advance on our vehicles is supposed to retard timing under boost. Doesn't make much sense to call it a vacuum advance but it seems that mine is doing the opposite of what it should. Advancing under vacuum not retarding. If my previous statement doesn't make any sense.

So awhile back my vac advance went out. Start doing the horrible clackity clack on acceleration. Checked timing, was right on the money. Good vacuum source coming from the first of the three vac ports on the TB. So off to the parts store to buy a new vac advance pot. The noise was still there, if anything it was worse. Checked the timing while raising the idle until the noise started to come back and I noticed the timing was steadily advancing the timing as it saw more vacuum, and off the charts, Like 30-40 degrees ATDC. This was even before the noise which starts about 2000rpms. (I know that the knock sensor will cause it to retard) Not even 15 miles later (limping it home) it wiped out my cam. Full rebuild time. Rebuild completed. The noise came back with my new cams after the cam break in procedure. Decided before I took it out, I would try disconnecting and plugging the vac advance. PROBLEM SOLVED. So the question is then, was I sold a vacuum retard pot instead of the vacuum advance pot, or a faulty one? Is it even possible to install the vac pot wrong, seems pretty dumby proof. Distributer is fairly new, and the throws move freely. Any help would be much appreciated !

Amazing JOE! Very clean. Brings the bay back to a 60-70's euro car

Looks like you still have the front bumper foam? If so ill take it! Shipping to 59803?

Was just looking to cure this problem on my Quest as well. I love this site! Ill take one! PM me for your Papal if you still have one.

In all honesty I really like the sound of it with its cats, and stock pipe to just after the axle. The muffler rattle off the day after I bought her and have been running that way ever since. But its so danm restrictive! Ill be going MPI down the road its just that there are no tuning shops any where near me. Were talking like a thousand miles... Just seems like 3" would be overkill and hollow sounding but these cars do have there own distinct sound that cant be compared to most any other 4 banger.

I plan on a 2.5" straight pipe. Has any one used a resonator to reduce rasp before the muffler? likes dislikes on the matter? Secondly what is every one running for a muffler? I personally lean towards Magnaflow from past builds...though Ive heard some really crappy Magnaflow cans too lol
