Would I also have to get a bigger MAF? Or just the tune?

Anyone recall who had a set of rusty OBX LT's. The picture was posted in this thread somewhere. Not having much luck finding it. I thought it was from someone who frequents this thread a lot.

Also, a couple standard questions and lightning swap questions.

I tested the resistance on the 42# lightning injectors and they all read 28-30 ohms. The Haynes manual said they should read13.5-19. I thought that was the difference between sizes but the navi injectors also read the same(29). What gives?

What degree thermostat should I run with the swap? 160?

Should I get a stock size lower pulley ring to run instead of the 4 and 6 # rings I currently have?

What coolant does the intercooler system take?

Finally should turn the knock sensor off in the tune or just unplug it?

Those just sound like high impedance injectors. I'm using low impedance and the ohm out at 9-10 ohms. Run a 160 t-stat. No doubt not turn the knock sensor off. It's a vital component for timing. Don't wanna see you blister a piston.

Ok, can the tuner adjust the knock sensor for the rotor noise?

Also, Planning on TR6 plugs gapped to .035?

And unless stated on the shroud cover, the waterpump nut is NOT reverse threaded correct?

I went over a list of things I'll need and it's still staggering.
Throttle cable
Water pump o-ring
Injector orings (lost mine new ones during the move
Wiring for the IC pump (another lost during move)
Coil holder for IC pump
Waterpump pulley wrench set
Allen headed bolts for Hub to harmonic balancer
Spark plugs
new iat sensor
Tubing for boost gauge.
Teflon tape
New coolant
Di-electric grease
Coolant for IC system (still unsure what kind to use)


Also where is cheapest place to get motorcraft parts. I'll need a few new sensors along the way.

Working on mocking up the heat exchanger and pump today
