    Yeah. It can be calculated if you have the tire sizes.

    3.55's

    Yup. What they said. Hhmm, no one mentioned tires. Larger tires need more gear, or said another way, larger tires reduce the effective ratio. JIC you didn't know that.

    Pedestals, studs, guide plates, and cams ?

    I need some valvetrain guidelines, sort of a Stangers Guide to Setting up your Valvetrain. I have a few books in my library, but they just describe what the parts are, not when they're necessary. I know what a pushrod is. :bang: Here's what I'm looking for: How much cam can pedestal-mount...

    Have a question about the coil packs on a '93

    That's what they do during normal running (but not at startup); the two flame fronts and less pumping losses account for the additional 8-12 ft-lbs I mentioned earlier, and that's how TheShape was able to disconnect a coil pack and it continues to run. To be more precise, four plugs fire...

    Venting about Racer Walsh ...

    I have a Hedman #89370 long tube, ceramic coated, collecting dust in my garage. Don't know if I'm ready to part with it, though. Bought it from www.summitracing.com ; try this part number: HED-48030. It's slightly different than mine. Note the absence of smog fittings (u custom). RW can be...

    Same as mine?

    Stinger, I believe the 95-97 ranger 2.3L uses the same rod as the '98-00 2.5L, that is, 5.4", not 5.2". Weird, huh?

    In a predicament, please help

    Check. EGR valve functions OK. Da Book says the EVR has a constant internal leak by design. The reason why the EGR didn't open in this test is the EVR needs power to open. From the first note we know the vacuum line is OK. Next test would be to check for voltage to the EVR, should be...

    Bassani vs. BBK

    I don't recall modifying my dipstick with my Bassani equals. :scratch: It worked fine for me. Now I have to go look at it again.

    In a predicament, please help

    I hope this helps. I don't know the '91 that well; my maintenance book doesn't mention any difference in the EGR circuit over 89-93. * The purpose of Exhaust Gas Recirculation is to lower combustion temperatures. Thus, less tendency to ping. * Ignition timing on a DIS is just like most...

    MAF/Injector question

    Yep. To get to your goal of 180 HP the torque peak will need to be moved up to, ohhhhh, let's say 5000 RPM and it won't idle below 1000. Still want 180 HP? Food for thought. Say, where's Huff? I believe he also has a slushbox....?

    MAF/Injector question

    Uhhhh........ Freaking, spend some time studying my dyno pulls; we have the same engine and similar goals. Note especially the RPM for peak torque.

    MAF/Injector question

    I have Dyno2000. I'm dyno'ing at ~75% of it's estimate, FWIW. Stinger's correct about the TB. My 50mm '93 flowed 278 CFM, waaaaaay more than those intake ports can pull. Remember, a four cylinder engine has the unique configuration of drawing only one cylinder at a time (every 180*)...
