Doctor! It's alive!

It smoothed out the idle even better than the Street Demon. It idles @725rpm. Took it out Sunday and the throttle response was excellent. On par or better than the SD. Test drive went smooth, no hesitations, surging or what have you.

I recently purchased a SD. How did you like it? Why did you get rid of it? Also, where did you get that throttle/kickdown bracket? Brand and part number would be nice..The one offered by demon is cheap looking, IMO. Your Mirada sounds good with the TBI...

Nothing wrong with the SD. I liked the small primaries/big secondary's. It performed well in street driving. I just wanted an aftermarket EFI on the Mirada.

Also, where did you get that throttle/kickdown bracket? Brand and part number would be nice..

Sucks when you put the gas tank filler grommet on backwards.

Running great though. I will be rigging the cruise cable back up.

What rear gear did these come with? Christ I'm cruising at 60 mph and only turning 2100 rpm at most.

I want 3.73's with a gear vendor's unit.

'77's came with either a 2.45, 2.94 or 3.23:1.
2.76:1 was an option on other years (but I don’t think used in ‘77)

There "should" be a tag on one of the inspection cover bolts, and another tag if it is limited slip.

My ‘86 has a 2.24:1 vs a 3.23:1 in my ‘77.
That is one huge difference to the seat of my pants feeling (or lack thereof).

aspen77rt · Apr 9, 2016

I believe it has the 2.24 the way it cruises. The tag was hard to read. The tires (245/60r14) are only 25.5 inches tall. It cruises like my '77 with a 3.23 and a manual OD trans.

I know the 8.25 I have for it was from a '77 Dippy with 2.45 gears.

The 2.24:1 didn't come out until early 80's

Working on the engine bay plumbing. Cut to length Accel 300 spark plug wires. The initial timing is set a 18 degree BDC, and I'm not running a vac advance right now. The previous vid was 10 BDC.

The cruise cable bracket fit right on top of the Bouchillon bracket with a bolt through an existing hole. It's not hooked up right now.

So do your A/C vents all have runny noses that require them to have tissues handy?

aspen77rt · Apr 13, 2016

Dryer sheets, mice hate them.

Added heat shield because I didn't like the Heat soak on the fuel rails on the TB.

And another useless pic of the display

Darth-Car · Apr 13, 2016

I like the display! I would have one of these in a heartbeat if our cars had an obd II port.

On the last photo above,

That shiney bent bolt going through the Bouchillon bracket, is what's anchoring the cruise cable bracket. I just have to cut it off after the nut.

***USELESS VIDEO ALERT*****

Boring Sunday drive. Messing around with the gopro. The rattling might be the gopro mount.

Looks like beautiful country there.

You must turn heads in that baby.

aspen77rt · Apr 25, 2016

I believe most folks don't even know what it is.

Darth-Car · Apr 25, 2016

It's sounding real nice with that fuel injection.

aspen77rt · May 7, 2016

Decided to take the Mustang out after I pulled the door panel because the power window took a dump.

Have to stop. Thought I had eight poly shackle bushings. Had only four.
