    anyone tried this

    My query is this: Has anyone swapped out the distributor less ignition on a 5.0 X for one with a distributor and stayed with the factory fuel injection system? I sure there are lots who have done it and went to a carb, If you have did you use the factory wiring harness or did you have to change...

    98 Explorer Questions

    Welcome Congrats on the purchase lets see some pics. As far as forced induction I would check around to what fits your needs. Looks like a supercharger is the cheapest because it would be bolt on with minor fab work but all the turbo's I've seen on this site have been the remote mount or...

    Stock 5.0 cam specs ?

    rr's No do not use the stock stamped steel I've read too many times were even though they are rated at 1.6 most often they fall short of that mark. I been a long time pony guy before makeing the switch to an X and have found that even aftermarket stamped steel are better than the stock ones. So...

    Tuned the Turbo 5.0 Explorer!!

    hows it holding up Justin wanted to see if your still running this combo and if you were still running the awd setup? Just thought I might ask how the driveshafts are holding up to that kind of power or did you upgrade them and the u-joints?

    e 303 cam

    Oh no my truck is shifting at the stock shift points for the factory auto, when I mentioned 6100 rpm I was talking to JT about his X cam'ed 347. As far as other grinds go its really a budget thing surfing E-bay you can pick up an "E" for a third of what the Comp or Crane cams go for. jah was it...

    Stock 5.0 cam specs ?

    1.7 rr's I was checking out your thread and thought I would jump in. Just remember more lift does not always mean more hp. I was reading a pony rag a while back and they tested the theory of rr's vs stamped steel in several different formats on a 306 with P heads and a small cam I think it was...

    How many vin codes for the 5 liter second gen X

    I was looking around at some CAI kits andone of the manufactures listed two vin codes for the 95-97 5.0's one being an " X " and the other being an "E". So I searched the threads here and came up with a "P" code for the 98 and up. Does anyone have one of the other codes, my 97 limited awd has...

    e 303 cam

    I'm running 1.6 pedastel mounts now and I think I read on one pony sites that the 19lb injectors are good for 350. Did some of the (p) motors come with 24lb injectors? Wow an X cam thats good for your 347 but I'm only at a stock bore and stroke your probaly making peak hp around 6100 or 6200 rpm...

    e 303 cam

    I've got a 97 X limited AWD 5.0 (build date 10/96,GT40 heads). Right now I'm running the MAC CAI with FMS headers (swap meet find) two high flow cats and custom y pipe going through a 3" in/out MAC muffler for a Mustang. I'm thinking about a E303 cam but do not know if I will need to get a chip...

    Hi Explorer fans please be easy with the new guy

    Just wanted to post a hello, and give a little background on myself. I'm a converted Mustang owner ( and for those who cannot read between the lines I've now got too many kids to fit in the back seat and the wife always packs to much junk on road trips!) I've been through 5 ponies all 5.0...
