I have a 65 falcon w/87 mustang speed density fuel injection. i just put power brakes on this vehicle off a geo metro. the vehicle ran good before installing brakes..it now hesitates and falls on its face when i accelerate. i checked fuel pressure..40 lbs...i also put a cold air intake on it. engine is a 69 h.o. from 69 falcon..it has been bored out .060. i have a 65 mm throttle body.
any ideas
thanks
