    m90 on 4.0

    another car is gonna be helpful here, cause if you have to keep taking your intake off to size up the manifold, that might be tedious. or i hear getting another manifold helps (for the bolt pattern and holes and such) hardest part for me was lining up the pulleys. you should be fine though

    performance loss with bigger rim?

    darn physics...i got 35 inches, from the post above mine, i couldnt understand it, so i thought he was talking about something about a larger tire or something. so even if the 2 combos (16inch rim with tire, and 20 inch rim with tire) even if they weigh the same amount, the 20 inch is gonna...

    performance loss with bigger rim?

    im trying to make sense of that post? are you saying bigger overall tires (going from 31 to 35 inch tall tires) is what will kill the power? versus the weight of the 31 inch tall tire? i emailed the place that im gonna get the rims from..and they said the rims are approximately 30lbs

    Engine tries to explode after M112

    how do you know that a 9 inch crank is good for your application? you dont want to max out the eaton..you wanna get your power from spinning it as slow as possible

    Engine tries to explode after M112

    my point with the AFR gauge is if you have a 30 dollar one and its not connected into the O2 sensor directly (not even sure if that is possible..) its just going to be a light show.. you need a O2 sensor directly feeding into your AFR gauge, cause the cheap ones are looking for a mathematical...

    Engine tries to explode after M112

    gonna throw my 2 cents in here from another person that has done it. 1) you said your AFR gauge was bouncing back and forth from rich to lean, please tell us/me, that you didnt buy a 30$ gauge, and got the wideband that has the o2 sensor hooked up to it 2) i had a problem with the rpms...

    M5OD ranger spec stage 5, wont disengage at a stop sign

    soo even if i can get the 3 parts seperately..you think just getting all three and doing all three is good? difference between doing the slave and line, and possibly the master later if something goes? i mean the master is not in anything or a pain to get to you know? soo thats why i was just...

    M5OD ranger spec stage 5, wont disengage at a stop sign

    i have never taken the tranny off, i took the engine out, replaced the clutch, so all the lines and such stayed together and then put the built engine in with the new clutch... i guess its said i should get that tranny off! ahah

    M5OD ranger spec stage 5, wont disengage at a stop sign

    i just searched for bench bleeding quickly and found that you "bench bleed" before you install the master. nothing came apart, so i dont think that is nessicary

    M5OD ranger spec stage 5, wont disengage at a stop sign
