my buddy has a 87 mustang 5.0 lx in my parking lot we are doing a 5spd and mass air conversion on it. We havent done the 5pd swap yet but when i start it and give it quick gas it has a sticky pedal and it bogs a little and pops before it revs up and it does not rev up very fast. I have a stock 88 and it reves up alot faster. Any ideas why it revs up really slowly or has a loss of power?

p.s. i have the timeing at 10 degrees advance just to make sure it's not because of the timeing.

check your throttle linkage for the "sticky pedal"

give the computer time to adjust, if it doesnt feel better check for dirty maf, and vacuum leaks

I'd run the codes after the computer has had some time to adjust.
