    questions about pi head swap

    Dont bother with the port and polish, it wont add more than 10-15 as opposed to regular PI heads...unless you are gonna run a power adder in the future. A better investment would be stock PI heads, a VT stage 2 cam, and some LT's. All that together will still be cheaper than a port and polish...

    how hot does your car run?

    Not that hot, never over 105 degrees, but the main reason I posted that is so everyone knows, that stock gauge doesnt do anything...my temp went from 180-240 one day on my autometer gauge, and my stock gauge didnt budge, if you think you are getting at all accurate temps from the stock one...

    how hot does your car run?

    my autometer gauge reads around 200-210 constant during the summer...thats with a 50/50 mix and water wetter....without the water wetter, my car was approaching 250 in july Either way, the stock gauge always reads the exact same from 180-250...so dont trust that thing

    Electronic headquearters?

    Hard to say, never heard of them myself, but that doesnt mean anything, they could be perfectly fine. From my experience, these ebay stores are REALLY slow to ship out a lot of things...if you dont get it within a week or so, I would start questioning it more seriously. Good luck...

    Any 96-98 GT convert owners running ford c springs?

    I have c springs in my 98 vert and yeah, i bottom out a lot, mostly right in the middle on the k member. If I drive slow over speed bumps and ups-and-downs in the road then its not a problem. However, dirt roads around my house, lets just say its not pretty if i am going more than 5 mph

    ANYONE SWAP LED's INTO THEIR CLUSTER??

    I could be wrong but i think all autometer pods (2 1/16 at least) are 194 bulbs, which means you can get the varad led bulbs in whatever color you want from www.sounddomain.com

    98' stock midpipe unistall...

    First off, everything is metric on our cars, so I dont know what an 11/16 equates to in metric, but from what I can remember, the passenger side is a 15mm or 16mm socket, and yes you do need a deep well. As for getting to the other one you cant reach, just try different combinations of tools, I...

    light weight cars wheres the gain?

    I would imagine that you would see the gains throughout all speeds and rpm. Maybe I am wrong, but to me it seems like, if you weigh less, you will accelerate faster, corner better, have less weight to move around at higher speeds. And I have heard what Kilgore said as well, that every 6 lbs or...

    Nitrous Purge Question

    I think the difference in the purge, whether its a big cloud or a thin strip of smoke will greatly depend on the bottle pressure and bottle temperature....bigger pressure would make a bigger cloud. Hope that helps.

    High-mileage 94-98 4.6s...

    Yeah they are pretty good engines, and if there is ever a problem with any internals, there are tons and tons of 4.6 parts laying around new and used on the net so it wouldnt be a problem fixing something for cheap

    What should I do with along with the PI headswap?

    I second that for the water pump and guides, its just making it that much more reliable, I did mine while it was all apart, I painted everything too, valve covers, timing cover, alternator, intake, coolant reservoir and some other stuff I am probably forgetting...anyway, you get the point, do as...

    What should I do with along with the PI headswap?

    I would say cams w/ the springs to match, but you may need (probably need) a tune with the stage 2 cams to get everything out of them. So if you have the extra money for the tune then do it! When I was stockpiling parts last winter for the swap I regret not getting cams and LT's, instead I got...

    PI head swap, too strong?

    It should be fine, I mean, it would probably make the engine a lot better too. Think about it, you are replacing a lot of your gaskets, cleaning up the pistons when the heads are off, new intake, new heads all these things will only make the engine more reliable.
