    They are easy to work on, just takes some time. Takes about 4.5 hours to do an intake job if you know what you are doing (which the guy I use does). Cleaning and assembling takes up the most time but everything is pretty easy. The guy can do heads and cam in a day if he stays at it... on a...

    Here are pictures of the install. Old stuff - New Stuff - Stock cylinder head intake ports - TrickFlow Lower Intake - Another view of the whole intake - I have tons of bottom end, so I still need to get the drag shocks and lift bars. The...

    Personally with your setup, I wouldn't go less than 70mm TB.. You might not feel it as much if you upgrade from the 65mm but you should gain some more mid-range. I thought the Holley ports were big, and I was on TF website.. I seen the BOX-R Intake.. makes power from 2,500 to 7,900rpm.. my...

    Yeah, the TF Rep said they were highport gaskets. John said the ports on this intake were not as big compared to the Holley.. which makes sense because it doesn't make it into the 6500 rpm range like the holley does. I'm going to have tons of bottom power and more mid-range. I guess the rest...

    hmm, I called trickflow today and told them what I ordered. They said the TF gaskets that I ordered would probably work, but were made for ported heads.. hence the taller and wider gasket ports. The recommended application is the fel-pro 1250.. well I finally found someone in town that had them...

    Yeah, the FPP-1250 is what it suggests but I ordered the TrickFlow intake gaskets that have bigger port openings just to make sure it was gonna fit plus they were cheaper than the FPP-1250 so I ordered them overnight. I called around today and asked if anyone had them, everyone said they...

    Well that sucks.. new intake didn't come with intake gaskets and we couldn't get anything to match up at the auto stores. SOOO.. I have to overnight TrickFlow gaskets to get them here on saturday so we can install everything. Cost me frickin $40 bucks for gaskets+shipping.

    Freezing MY NUTS OFF

    The last good snow storm here that I can remember was in 1988 when we got 16 inches. Most of the time we get tons of Sleet that forms into ICE sheets and thats a PITA! Last year I think we got a few inches, but nothing ever significant in forms of snow.

    No, you are correct. The gears are a lot lower than normal, but adding the intake/tb will lean out the gears and they won't seem as steep. You loose a bit of torque when you change to a bigger intake.

    Not necessarily. I know you aren't talking bad about anyone. I didn't have any worse traction in my convertible with the same specs and 3.55's.

    Well, not necessarilly what I predict. I know what the car is capable of because my convertible ran a 11.58 with the same mods (except with 3.55). If I can get one good run in without my 2nd gear syncronizers screaming at me then I expect 11.5 or below. The lower gear ratio in this car with the...

    Did you get accepted Jason ? Helty - thats cool, one less modular to put up with... j/k.. I know what you mean with a debit card and all alone, thats how I ended up needing my intake, tb and adapter. Do it for the speed, glory, and the all american muscle car.... but mostly for the speed. GO...

    Just like the LT1 is still a great engine compared to the LS1. I think the only differences there is aluminum block vs iron. NOT sure though.

    maybe supply and demand will change the price of their parts also. You would think that 9 years of the 4.6 would bring down the parts price. I know the 5.0was made longer but still, you can get a set of headers and a cold air kit for the 5.0 for the same price you can get a set of headers for...

    You can usually pick up some PI heads and cams set off classifieds.stangnet.com for about $400 plus shipping. Awesome deal for getting the power of the 99-04 in a 96-98. Other than that, I don't know for a 4.6.
