    What was the first year of body stile before the fox body?? got money on this one!!!!

    Yup. It has 5-lug wheels and a 7.5 inch rear. 3.45's or 3.73's were the order of the day.

    What was the first year of body stile before the fox body?? got money on this one!!!!

    The '94 models were actually released later than the traditional October of preceeding calender year release dates for most vehicles. (I believe January or February '94). They were all termed '94 models.

    GT40p motor questions..

    The "cobra" and "explorer" intakes flow, for all practical purposes, the same. It all depends which day they were cast. Tom Moss is the guy's name. He's been around a while and has as much experience with Explorer intakes as anyone. Kudos indeed. I see you are from Mobile. What area...

    GT40p motor questions..

    Good point 2002BLGT. Make sure you check to see if it does have the internal EGR intake if he needs to pass emissions. If not, you'll need to either disable the EGR in the EEC via chip or find another intake. Since you've run one before, I'm probably stating the obvious, IntenseBlue, I...

    Emissions GT40 vs GT40P

    These aren't marine GT40's are they? BIG combustion chambers (70cc or something like that). I'm pretty sure all GT40 heads for passenger cars have the passages. Hummm...

    Quick question: AOD to T5 swap

    First, you can use the A9P (AT computer) with the manual tranny. As a matter of fact, the timing is a little more agressive on the A9P, but the rev limiter and everything else is the same. The whole problem with running the 5 sp. (C3W, X3Z et al) computer on an AOD harness is because pin 30 of...

    Why is the LS1 so much better than a 351W?

    Why DOESN'T a 40-year-old-design engine outperform a 10-year-old design? What would have happened if someone had said, "By God, Henry got it right the first time. You can make just as much power with a flathead as a small-block....Why not just mod that flathead?...blah, blah, blah..."? I...

    My explorer motor/gt40p buildup and drop into 86gt Vert PICS!!!

    A lot of people have used 90 deg. boots and a short plug to make standard headers fit. I just bought the FRPP pieces and let it be. Your money and/or time.

    My explorer motor/gt40p buildup and drop into 86gt Vert PICS!!!

    They are pedistal type (factory Cobra). I used the covers off an SVO crate engine to clear them since the cast aluminum covers wouldn't.

    My explorer motor/gt40p buildup and drop into 86gt Vert PICS!!!

    Fixed. Not all intakes have to be painted or polished. I actually bought this one new out of the original Ford packaging on Ebay. It was a bit expensive, but it has that sleeper look I love. BTW, the ear on the intake was for a throttle cable mount I think. I just left it.

    My explorer motor/gt40p buildup and drop into 86gt Vert PICS!!!

    A pic of my almost finished project (no intake cover now). It's designed to look stock yet carry a pretty mean punch. Specs in sig. Never been to the track or dyno. I only see it about once a year, but man does it ever get wrung out when I do.

    I need new muffler bearings

    Mike, the Duratec, NOT the 1st gen. SHO architecture, actually formed the basis for the SHO V8. The intake and heads on the V8, as you said, were Yamaha designed. The block is good ol' FoMoCo. Even the pistons and connecting rods are the same as the 2.5 liter Duratec V6.

    Let's get a discussion on what is a better means to show potential: Dyno or Track?

    The whole reason I said what I did earlier was that this thread seemed to be more about post whoring and penis length rather than getting an actual discussion going. I guess the discussion has begun in earnest, so I can finally chat away... That being said, a chassis dyno may or may not give...

    Let's get a discussion on what is a better means to show potential: Dyno or Track?

    I'll quote Ed Curtis here: "Talk is cheap. Take it to the track and prove your point!" This is an absolutely pointless discussion.

    I need new muffler bearings

    If I'm not mistaken, it's built with the same architecture as the Duratec (albeit with 2 extra cylinders). It supposedly saved on the cost, but it sure was a turd compared to the first generation V6, wasn't it? BTW, I got to drive one of those V6's in 1992. The sound of that V6 going to...
