im lookin to hopefully add some stuff to my 4.2. im having some trouble finding performance parts for it. anybody know of a website where i can find anything. and anyone have any suggestions of what might help. im 17 and i have about 1500 saved up.

 

and im lookin at gears
how do i know which rear end i have.
im rather new to this

 

needs 2 more cylnders mod

 

i work at chic-fil-a man

 

a 4.6 is a dime a dozen man


reason i say it is ive got a friend in austin. ported head comp cam. ported intake manifold intake exhaust mods. a tune and a 75 shot and the best he could run is a 15.8

 

I have a V6 with 131K miles on it and it will still bark the tires in 2nd. I have raced and beat v8 Tahoes and many other V8 vehicles even though I have 265/75/16(very tall) tires.

To get power, add a K&N filter(drop-in is cheaper, with slightly less performance). I also bought a tuner off of ebay for $50. It increases gas mileage and adds power. I have yet to install my underdrive pulley of which I had great results on my previous V6 Ranger as far as added horsepower and gas mileage. You can also install electric fans to lessen the parasitic loss of horsepower on the engine. If you raise the gear ratio IE: 3.73 to 4.10, you will gain acceleration, but loose gas mileage and top end.

I hope this helps!

Remember: V6's have more fun.
