    pull oil pan from bottom, 1996 Explorer 5.0L

    Can you say in more detail just what he did? He pulled the CV's...drive shaft...third member...motor mount screws...dropped the exhaust... He raised the engine only a couple of inches but did he have to remove anything more to do that? Did he have to remove the oil pickup before the pan...

    pull oil pan from bottom, 1996 Explorer 5.0L

    Has anyone ever tried pulling the oil pan from the underside? It looks like with the suspension and the rack removed it would drop out if it didn't get hung on the pickup.

    OK. Here we go. Will the stock quasi GT40 heads do? What about the "Tweecer"? Know anything about it?

    Oops. Please excuse my DA. I meant 90mm "MAF" not "TB". I'm OK with welding and fabrication. If I have to I'll make my own headers. What do you know about "Tweecer" tuners?

    1996 5.0L mods

    My skills and tools are appropriate for carburated engines but the electronics don't scare me. The '96 has the GT40 heads and the tall intake, both of which I think I'll use to keep the cost down. I suppose the cam will change and I'll add headers and a programmer and a 90mm 19lb/hr TB.

    1996 5.0L mods

    I'm interested in getting 300 HP at the crankshaft at about 5500 RPM in a normally aspirated set-up with no NO2. Has anyone had any dyno experience doing something like this to say what kind of parts it takes?

    Remove stock 6 disc changer from 98 XLT

    Scucci, You'd be doing me huge favor if you'd embellish the removal process. I'm missing something.
