    75 mm vs 70 mm TB/plenum

    Get the 70. It will perform better if you stay NA. If you get a blower the difference is small about 2-3 hp. Go to Kenne bells site they have good info on it

    PCV valve

    It is common and not a problem if not excessive. You can build an oil seperator for about thirty bucks with Home Depot parts (do a search) or buy one for sixty from Steeda.

    Transmission broke again!

    If you power shift a T45 or 3650 they will break. The 3650 is good to 360 ft/lbs IF you get a good one. I have been lucky in that mine (3650) has the updated shift forks and has not had the grind problem. I would be afraid to buy a used on though. The TKO 500 actually shifts at high RPM better...

    Kenne Bell Install question

    depends on the amount of boost. Start at 35 and work from there. In high boosy applications a tighter gap will prevent spark blow out. I think they stopped universally recommending Densos but you should have no problem with them.

    what ford says about 5w20 over 5w30

    In an OHC engine it is critical to get the oil up top as quickly as possible to prevent lobe wear. The lighter oil will do this better in lower operating temps. Also, it doesn't hurt to use a light weight when trying to make HP. I am a drag racer from another era (B hotrod record holder...

    Looking for headers

    There have been tests that net only 3-5 HP with shorties and a decrease in torque. For those who think Long Tubes are much better, Ken Belle did extensive testing and only saw 8-10 HP. It seems the 4.6 does not benefit much from headers in the HP dept. ,but they give a distinctive sound and are...

    do miles matter?

    With good maintenance and repairs the car will last as long as you want. Look at all the vinatage muscle cars around. Eventually you will wear out the engine and need a rebuild but that is a long way off. Change the oil and filter every 3-5 K and get the good stuff like mobil 1. My last two...

    Tremec 3650 TSB results

    Seems like the warranty should still apply since it was a preexisting condition. Threaten small claims court.
