    4.6 question for those in the know....

    You are correct.

    4.6 question for those in the know....

    Negative ghostrider. The 4V engines were all aluminum block, the Explorer Sport Trac was aluminum block.

    4.6 question for those in the know....

    The 3V has VCT, all of the other 4.6s do not. For the most part, 4.6s are all at least partially interchangeable if you're creative and/or have someone that can tune for the modifications. The really crazy part is that you can mix and match a lot of bits and pieces to make what you want so long...

    351 Cleveland swapped MII

    You're probably going to want 750cfm or more with that tunnel ram on 351cid. Do the heads flow enough for the ram?

    The Tragic Tale of ElSuperPinto

    So... ElSuperPinto no longer exists. The kid that bought it... parted it out a few months later, putting the engine and transmission into a Ford Ranger and selling the hulk on Facebook. I only found out because a friend saw the ad and sent it to me. And... I accidentally have a project car...

    That's almost what I had in mind for ElSuperPinto on the exterior.

    Engine Several blocks past my wits' end... Running, died, won't start.

    The problem is every manufacturer outsourced production of parts to Asia, mainly China. Several Asian countries (especially China) don't give a damn about US patents and IP laws, and sell knock-off parts, manufactured using the knowledge they gained from the American company, frequently of...

    351 Cleveland swapped MII

    I did, and it even kept that .040" 302 from overheating on a 100 degree day when the radiator fan relay failed. The fact that it kept the engine under 220 as long as I was moving and under 240 when I got caught at a light was a testament to it's quality. I was genuinely impressed by it.

    Starters suck. So does the aftermarket!

    I got that same advice years ago on small block Chevy starters. It's served me well for both Ford and GM.

    TB Injection Install (Aces Killshot)

    ElSuperPinto is dead. The jackwagon that bought it yanked the powertrain and slapped it into a Ranger. I'd have never known, but a friend sent me the listing for the roller asking if it was my old car about three months after he bought it.

    Starters suck. So does the aftermarket!

    A '93 Mustang 5.0 Starter with a Dorman starter shim for Ford 302/5.0 works. That's what ElSuperPinto had.

    Raggedy’s F150

    Please tell me you didn't get rid of this jellybean Ford... Also... have you thought of 4.6 4v swapping it? Find a wrecked Mark VIII, Aviator, Cobra... boom, 300hp, bolts right in, sounds like sex...

    Ford E-series vans with the 302 and 351 frequently used GM's Saginaw power steering pumps. Check your local salvage yard and you may find everything you need on one van.

    TB Injection Install (Aces Killshot)

    I think there was another Mustang II guy that went down this road.... spent thousands of dollars on this path... only to eventually go back to a carburetor, sell the EFI system for a loss, and then in a way too late epiphany, realize his alternator wasn't putting out enough amperage... Anyone...

    The Tragic Tale of ElSuperPinto

    Well... that didn't happen. I still have the Sonoma, hell, it has new pads, rotors, wheel bearings, calipers, control arms, and front brake hoses. It's also for sale. I sold my dad the Ranger after his beloved 2013 Hyundai Accent was rear-ended and totalled (it was his first new car, bought it...

    That car looks familiar... I can't remember if it was on .net or one of the FB groups that I couldn't stand and quit after about a week.
