Going to. Still have the pan to remove and rear timing cover. Gave my intake over to a buddy for some work. Deleting the banks pressure box and seal, will help with plumbing in the cac. Recycling a mustang part, he's gonna remove the casting for the screen and tig a plate and the mustang power pipe to the intake. Mock up of it. If they're swollen they may break on you. Cheap off brand plugs tend to do that on their own with out help from a chitty relay or wiring issues.

Thanks buddy. Got so many irons in the fire on this 1 vehicle it's frustrating me. Trying to locate a rear dually axle on top of every thing else.

Another "iron in the fire". 5" exhaust. Just for sound, and annoy neighbors. Piece that got pulled from a truck.

Stocker runs .258" @ the lifter. Have to press on the spacer, fuel pump eccentric, gear onto the new cam. Kinda wish I had a degree wheel to compare the duration change.

Probably should hook a mech gauge up and see where's it's really at. Hot idle. Been this way for some time.

hmm, that's low pressure . I need to look into how to modify the stock cluster to read pressure instead of being an idiot light with a needle... might as well do that to the Ranger while it's down for a transplant...

Looks spendy. Wish I had a slush box again every once in a while.

Oil pressure could be the sending unit, gauge, plugged/plugging turbo oil feed line for all I know. Haven't put a verified accurate gauge on it. Just keep the oil changed and seems to be fine. Probably gonna run the 4" PAC exhaust brake. Works fine, think the 5" needs a cylinder, the small one needs to soak in pen oil to free up. Have comp 910's coming to deal with the back pressure from brake use.
