    cam vs. 1.7 rr

    I have the pheads on a stock cam with 1.77rr I had the exact same setup with an e303 about 3months ago, and the stock cam is way more fun to drive around town. There is night and day difference in the low end power and torque, tell you the truth I sometimes think I lost a tad power up...

    The flywheel was Not resurfaced when we put it on, was a time thing.. bolt on bolt off bolt on drop in bolt on, go. Heh, Drive shaft is an aluminum, not rusted. Can the throw out bearing cause that much vibration? Are those holes in the back of the flywheel stock?

    Taking the Tremec out, did I miss something?

    I removed the shifter handle.. I couldnt get those extra two bolts in the front of the base, my hands are too fat or something.. but I figured I could at least get the tranny out a couple inches and then drop it down some to get it out.. but as of today its basically still bolted to the housing...

    Help How do i make my 95 5.0 fast for cheap

    Gears might be optional...but will certainly be an instant kick in the pants difference. Id say start with gears. Depending on if you have an auto or not, you'll need a converter. Should port your lower intake yourself, there is a few DIY writeups floating around. Then save... and buy a turbo...

    cam and intake

    Dont get the e303, there are better cams for the same price. Look around and try and find a 5.0 explorer motor..should be able to get one for less than 500 bucks. You can get heads, intake, throttle body, and still sell the block or other parts back to the junk yard. Those three components are...

    H/C/I vs. Supercharger

    Well I dont think anyone has a 400hp H/C/I in mind, to do that.. is kinda a straight glory factor that costs too much to be practical. Like I said earlier, a HCI is cheap. Grab an explorer motor, 400bucks. Take the heads, tb, intake, to a shop get it all cleaned. Thats what 150? If that much...
