I'm looking for things to try here. My exhaust isn't exactly stock, but exits the stock location. What I can tell you is that I don't have an exhaust leak. With a window down, or the roof open its almost like the smell comes from the back of the cabin. It's surprisingly bad. My exhaust does...

Anyone needing to get in to tight spaces to see whats happening, I want to recommend the endoscopes that plug in to smart phones.. Super cheap, and work really well. Here's a sample pic took with it. I just thought it was worth mentioning as it is super helpful in troubleshooting.

This is a bit out of my price range. 5000Hp Devel Sixteen Price: Top Speed, Engine & Specs Interestingly enough, it's Steve Morris Engines in MI that is doing the motors. Vortech, ProCharger, Turbo engines and systems, Big-Block Chevy, LS, 481X, HEMI, FORD - Steve Morris Engines I wonder if...

Quick background so everyone knows where I'm going here: I have a requirement to go return style fuel arrangement one my 2000 Explorer 5.0 as I need to get fuel pressure down to 40psi. The reason for this is my injector data is out of range for inputting in to the ECU at 60psi fuel pressure. I...

| K and P Engineering For us 5.0 V8 guys, the filter is an S17 The bad? This product carries a price that will bring a tear to your eye when your paying for it. The Good? 1. I can't find one negative review. 2. Over on the YellowBullet the big guys use them, and swear by them. 3. High flow...

I'm abandoning my old thread (My new 347), as the motor has been an epic fail for many reasons. Against any sane reason, I'm trying again. Post #1 is a thread with all parts for my own records. I'll keep adding to this as I have the time and know what parts are being used. New (Used)...

My particular scenario is that I have evacuated my ac a few times, and left components in the open air for quite a while in between motor removals (Different painful story). I have lost oil each evacuation, and understand its best to change it anyway due to moisture in the oil.. Here's what I...

VroomZoomBoom and I have been talking to Bob on and off. Great guy. I asked if he could make me a drivers side header without the 2 piece joiner in the pipe. Four reasons for this: 1. The header can be easily removed and replaced by just loosening up the front accessory bracket and pulling the...

Ok, Obviously the markets are responding very well to the New leadership in the US. I just took advantage of the 2 for 1 membership ( thanks @Rick ) and here was the exchange rate: 1 Canadian Dollar = 0.724219 U.S. Dollars Thanks again for the 2 for 1 deal. Helps ease the pain.

On with my issue of the moment. OD light flashing, code reads P7081 which is a 1-2 shift error Interestingly enough, even with the od light flashing, shifting feels fine, and the truck seems completely drive-able. What to do? I really don't want to drop the trans, so I decided to do what I...

Sold - Thanks Tim. Here's a SCT handheld that was ued with my 2000 Explorer. You can see it has been returned to stock. 1 of 5 marries has now been used. This means it can be married to 4 more pcm's. That's just how SCT devices work. Sale pending locally, but just in case it falls thru I'll...

Vroomzoomboom found a crack. There was no audible exhaust leak I was aware of, although the cam/lifters were noisier than stock because of the higher lift/duration 422 cam. At your own risk. Because of the crack, I'm thinking $50.00 + shipping.

$20.00+shipping. Thinking is that there are lots of guys missing them. They seem to be the first thing that goes when someone breaks in to your vehicle. Ask me how I know. lol.

Here's the head lights that were on the pour old girl. I'm thinking $50.00 + shipping if anyone is interested.

Guys, My 2000 Ex is done. Really done. Long story short, lent it to the outlaws since they were in need and an accident later and running it after blowing the head gasket its officially toast. Literally. Don't ask questions. I'm still more than a bit irritated. Heads..99.9% they are cracked...

I felt I'd start a thread to document for myself and possibly help someone else down the road. After struggling with numerous issues with my 347 (interestingly enough, the rear mount turbo's performance has been flawless), James Henson leaving the business, and some other guys here tuning with...

Since you two are on this thread, and its kind of an sct tuning thread of sorts, Im going to do a quick hijack... When you guys tuned load and boost, did you turn off WOT and follow this method of tuning: http://info.efidynotuning.com/scaling.htm 'Scaling tables for BOOST (greater spark...

I've been struggling with overdrive coming and going. In the midst of this, I've been doing all kinds of other things also. Turbo, 347 motor etc. Now, I 'think' I always had a lockup issue as I am totaly amazed at how low the rpm's go when locked up. I'm pretty well convinced its tuning...

Teaser pic. Should ship today. More to come when I get my hands on it. Where's that hard-on Smilie? :eek: Professionally built stock bottom end by Ford Strokers 28oz imbalance crank Wiseco pistons, shooting for around 9.6 to 1 comp. gt40p heads ported (by Thumper) with 1.94/1.54 SS undercut...

I've been noticing that my rpm's on the highway are indicating that my tc isn't locking up all the time. Im not sure whats different as I do the same drive every day, and some days the tc won't lock up. No codes, No head wind, flat......Whats going on? Is this correct? 4pointslow has a...

So, I filled up with gas, and very quickly had stumbling, trans codes, and all 4 o2 sensors firing codes. Immediately, I felt it must be bad gas. I syphoned it out, and refilled. Within 2 miles the truck ran great. I was sure it was the gas. 2 days later its coming back, intermittently...

As we are bumping performance on our Explorers, were dreaming of a knock sensor that would work with the stock pcm. So, What about the 1996 F-150? It has a knock sensor, and I started wondering how close the PCM is. My guess is that its pretty close. The knock sensor is located at the...

Ok boys, who remembers their math? I've been trying to sort out my analog equation for my AEM digital boost gauge. What I have been looking at is this...

Im not sure where to post this, or even the forum rules, but this does deserve special mention. When I bought my truck, it had a FK-35 fan controller on it. Due to how it was mounted, I ended up breaking off a couple of pins that the thermostat connector mounts to. Clearly my fault. I...

A manififod bolt broke flush with the head. Now, I have a broken manifold bolt in the head with a broken easy out in it. Both flush to the head. I have a feeling this is way over my head. Anyone have any other thoughts other than 'Pull the head'? The good news is that its easy to get...
