that detroit better hold up

as far as o2's i still dont understand what that means lol

 

Where did u get that manifold? I hate my stock one.

 

where are all the pictures, thats what id like to know!

 

:P im sorry guys just waitint for a friend to have time to help me. im not even gonna try lowering that motor in place all by myself. also, i think my OP sensor should be in thurs so i can hook that up before i lower it in while its nice n easy.

u wanna see my work on the front axle tube joey? lol

 

id like to see anything

 

lol well here, i did something while waiting for help and finishing parts like a autometer guage or 2. figured oil pressure was easier to do with the motor out.
8.8 axles in 97 had the axle vent on the tube itself, allowing oil to easily heat up and blow out the vent. quite annoying on long trips

 

sorry didnt see this, its a lightning/harley edition manifold. there use to be a ton of them floating thru e-bay.

 

Any of that ton left? Is that the top and the bottom pieces? I'd like to have a good torque manifold that flows well.

 

havent seen any since i havnt been lookin much. looked yesterday and i didnt see anything like i use to. just oddball parts and very few of them. i found the supercharger for one but no manifold.

 

You put things out there at a good price and it will sell till it's gone. There's a 5.4L aluminum manifold coming soon since the guy's 4.6 went so well. You would think Edelbrock would make one.

 

uhm, no offense to edelbrock fans but they seem to enjoy GM vehicles more than ford. everyone always has

 

Seems like most companies are that way. Why make stuff for a Volvo when there's so many chevies out there. They make things for Ford to keep customers. At least the mod motors are getting there. I worked on GenIII engines at GM after working on 4.6's first. I wasn't at all impressed with the GenIII with exception they put the exhaust valves in right like a Ford. They did carry over the buick style port they found that worked. I had a street engine I had had the ports done like that and they kicked butt.

 

some parts showed up, been busy helping parents move and arguing with the ex about custody issues.. i digress. back to the fun.

 

thats a start!

 

One is an oil guage but I can't make out the other. What iz it?
