being a 5.0 and all, there are def mustang headers in store for the Towny. however, being as i ONLY have experience with the tried and true carb setup, i have NO clue where to start with the exhaust swap for the EFI TC.
mine were had enough to swap on my Merc, and that was after the previous owner swapped on a carb. i punctuated on this by removing every part of the emissions bullshit i could. even with that out of the way it was difficult to get the headers in with the A/C in the way.
secondly. my dad has an 88 Fox and has Saleen headers with an offroad H into borla duals. he has a low and pulsing idle due to the fact he hasnt changed any of the computer or MAF sensors. i know the stangs have the O2 sensor and im assuming the Towny does too. so that may also present a problem.
the reason for the swap: the exhaust is shot. its got 3 leaks, 2 of which are BAD. one right at the muffler, one near the back and the pass. side manifold is leaking either at the head or the downpipe. were planning to get factory mustang shortys just as i did to replace the cast manifolds because they suck. since its not a carb i cant straight pipe it like im used to. so we'll probbly be on the lookout for an offroad H to delete those cats because fuck the ozone.
so heres the questions guys.
is there ANY problem with these ROUGH plans?.. what kind of problems are we looking at having to deal with as far as sensors and idle and what would you all say is the preferred or easiest method to swapping those headers on?
thanks in advance, help is always greatly valued.
