I was going to check my timing and bump it to 14* but i do not see a plunger on the front of my dist, am i just looking in the wrong place?

also another question, would i be better off to buy a gt40p set of heads and intake, or just get a late 90's explorer motor with low miles since my engine has 187k on it?

Click to expand...
It is...

Just undo the spout connector that over by the maf.

Second Question: It depends... Depending on how mechanically inclined you are you could aways just get a rebuild kit and freshen up your motor. (rings, bearings, etc.) If your worried about it.

But if your gonna be basically putting on the same parts anyway it is a matter of which one is worth messing with to you...
