The fender wells aren’t too bad, but small block a body’s , can be a nightmare, them dusters and darts had no room for anything, I did do a 2in individual tube race header small block that was a puzzler lol
I did a mechanical on my 19, I ordered the 2 5/8 gauge from jegs which had the standard adapters, I also had to order the metric Tee that has the 1/8 fitting for the mechanical gauge and the metric port to reattach the factory sensor, have to remove the alternator to get to it and it’s a little...
I got a 3.4 from VMP, idk what that is in metric but is easy to convert through Google, just curious, are you way above sea level to downsize to that pulley? Or just upgrade the performance? I was told going to 3.4 didn’t need any tune revisions, I’m @ about 15ft above sea level.
Amen on antisieze, BUT leave it dry where it seats, the plug needs to be able to GROUND itself, many have had misfires after a plug change and was due to using too much
I would have gone to the dealership and looked for my car and looked to see if the pan was off of even touched, I bet they are trying to scam you, I’d have it taken out of there and go somewhere to have the solenoid installed and drive it and see how it feels, and maybe have a trans fluid...
Oil pressure, Boost, Fuel Pressure are my next to do list, just wondering if anyone added them? Finding a hole in the firewall will seem to be the difficult part to run the tubes
They been great to work with on mine, I also tried the wengerd tuning stuff and eventually asked for my money back and went back to the vmp tune, I went with a Vmp return style e85 fuel system and they said I could run the 3.4 pulley without any revisions on tuning.
I was just watching them vids last night, so I called Driven this morning, I use there oils, and asked about the fr50 and 20, since I am super charged, they said I was fine with the FR50, the Coyote had enough clearances for its high rpm’s, and mentioned a lot of them vids are a little old and...
Back in 90s I was doing a leak down on a race engine ( circle track ) and it had leaking valves, talked to my friend who was a engine machinist and said it was probably carbon, he suggested to fire up the engine and warm it up and recheck, sure enough he was rt, they were all good.
Put a padding on top of the engine and lay across it to reach a lot of the top bolts or nuts, I used factory studs and nuts on mine, lifting lowering rocking over the engine helps, and some scuffed knuckles and hands are a part of it lol
I know my comment may not have much to do with this but back in the 90s when I ran dirt late models with methanol on foggy nights after the races were over we would discuss how much different the engines would run, the conclusions were perhaps the moisture in the air cools the air going into the...
Been this way for years, buy something and mod it and either you keep spending or I sell it only to do it over again, or the let me see what else is out there and trade buy trade and buy, it’s a terrible addiction, I’m doing my damnest to keep what I have and not look to hard at what someone...
