    too much oil!?!?!

    I changed the oil in my motor few days ago. I pulled both sump plugs and the filter and let them drain for a few min. Put the plugs back in, pored about a quart of oil in the new filter and wiped a ring of oil on the filter's rubber seal. I put 4 quarts in the motor, so I have 5 quarts in there...

    My 5.0 won't start...HELP!

    check to see if you're getting 12v at both wires on your inertia switch (its in your trunk, behind drivers side taillight). If you only get 12v at your red wire and not the red w/ black stripe, your inertia switch is open or fried. try pushing the reset button on top, make sure its plugged in...

    I know I'm new, but I need a little help....Cooling problems?

    are you sure no head or intake gaskets were blocking a coolant port? When I just installed my engine last month I had a bad cooling problem and it was my radiator. When it sat off the car for 2 months it got rusty/clogged. I only replaced it with a little 2core stock replacement and it fixed my...

    Rear-End gears

    going from 2.73's to 4.10's in a 5speed is supposed to shave off about .4sec +/-. It makes a huge SOTP difference. :flag: Oh, and I used some red RTV silicone to seal the rear cover. and go to walmart, they have a gear oil pump that screws to the top of the bottle and pumps the gear lube through...

    where does the ground go?

    I believe it grounds to the driver side block or head, just under the A/C compressor.

    mass air conversion problem!?!?

    I turn the key on and I get no voltage anywhere... 0v at inertia, 0v at FP relay...all through the whole fuel pump circuit, nothing. So I think I have a bad fusable link somewhere. I'm just gonna put the SD wire harness back in and run it with the #24 injectors with SD till I get the wire...

    Guys with F cams

    If you have the money, get a custom grind cam made just for your setup. I like my alphabet cam though. I run a B-303 cam wich only has .480 lift but has a nice 224 duration. I run it with speed density right now and it pulls hard after 3000. the F-303 has .512lift and 226* duration. It will have...

    #24 injectors with speed density ? anyone

    THANKS! thats what I wanted to hear lol. I'll still try to get my mass air conversion done today, but its nice to know that if I need to, I can just hook the SD stuff back up if I need to drive the car. Thanks man, I think my problem with the mass air conversion is that the wire harness is from...

    anyone have bigger injectors with their speed density? I have a power managment system and AFPR so I could probably fix any lean/rich problems probably.... you think 24's will work ok?
