Yeah the plug faces down and the the MAF faces forward -

I have some pics of intakes I made in the past - but I sold them and haven't made another yet - The pic on the bottom is where your MAF should be ..

 

Also Matt you may want to reset the computer after you change the MAF's position.

Hey jbrew i saw your email,i'll write back later

 

No Problem - It wouldn't have anything to do with working 80 hours a week would it ?



I 'm just waiting for the JB Weld to dry anyways..

 

That very well could have something to do with it Oh well i like having 40 hours of overtime I got done early today though!

What are ya JB welding?and did put those high flows on yet?

 

U have mail -

 

i finally got the boot replaced it cost $156 installed...i let someone else do it because i didnt want to risk anything since im goin on a road trip on wednesday...

 

hey Jbrew....i started pricing some spark plugs and i went to advance auto parts and i asked for NGK and they told me those are a horrible choice for my truck they are for import cars...they said autolite are the best for my truck...or they just full of it or something...?

 

Yeah , Don't listen to them - this is a Ford f150 5.4L,4.6L and 4.2L specific site .
They think just because Honeywell manufactures Motorcraft for Ford and that Honeywell also makes Autolite that there the same plug.

They are NOT.. Don't bother arguing, just go somewhere where they sell Motorcraft .

Motorcraft IS the OEM plug for these motors . The difference between the two are the heat ranges.

Motorcrafts are made to EXACT Ford specs. Autolites are not.

If you want the truck to run the way it was engineered - get the plug that they were dynoed with and tested with at the factory..

The Autolites heat up terribly , I tried them once, look at the discoloration. Thes plugs lasted 40 miles before it started to misfire..

 

i think im going to go with NGK like you said to begin with

 

Yeah , but I said I would only use those (I think there TR6's) if my truck was moded - more extreme than it is now . When I add a blower , I will run the NGK's but not before.

Maybe I didn't explain that clearly enough..

 

o ok i misunderstand you...thanks for your help...but still stay away from Bosch?

 

Yes , there the worst plug you could possibly put in these motors..

Just get the Motorcraft , you can't go wrong with those..

 

jbrew, what's your opinion on the Denso Iridiums that Troyer sells? I see Motorcraft has iridiums now too.

 

There good plugs - same catagory as NGK's. But again, I don't think we need a plug like that unless we can take advantage of the extra performance.

The lightning or any blown motor , stage 2 or 3 heads can make good use of these plugs .

A lightly moded motor really doesn't need them.
