Engine is still ticking. I put the stethescope to the injectors and discovered number 1 sounds different from the others. It almost sounds like it has a really slow pulse to it. I bet I have a bad injector. I didn't know that would make an engine eat the fuel like that, though?

Nah, no 302 for me. I need something that can put up with my abuse. 302's are solid engines but I don't know if a 302 would put up with me or not.

What are you doing up so late anyhow? It's bedtime!

Alright bro. Send me a message when you do, please.

If it's what I think it is I'm excited. I'm an F man first and a J man second.

Ok so it's stock except for the intake and ignition then. Are you using the headers and exhaust as well? I'd say it does have more pep than a stock 302.

Anyway, glad you got it running, that's the main thing. Post some pics of your ride when you get a chance.
