    cast iron manifolds?

    Okay guys so I've done some thread searching about swapping the 98+ cast-iron exhaust manifolds into my 96 5.0 to get rid of the Leaky tubular Style. I'm getting a complete mix of responses from "it's a great Swap "to "it'll never work with those heads". I don't know who to believe so has anyone...

    5.0 exhaust manifold replacement

    Hey guys as the title says I'm looking to replace the Leaky stock manifolds. I've done some searching and only seem to find write-ups about the passenger side.

    which 4r70w shift kit

    Hello all, I'm searching through shift kits right now but having trouble deciding on which one. I've done plenty of shift kits in GM's but never a ford 4r70w. Trans only has 20k on it so I'd like to take advantage and crack it open early. Trans shifts like it's full of mashed potatoes. Something...

    2wd conversation

    Hello all, just picked up my first explorer. 96 5.0. I needed something smaller with some grunt for towing so I figured one of these was my best option. I've owned a 5.0 before I know how fantastic these engines are. I know this subject has been beating around a little bit around here after...
