Here we go again.

What a pain in the arse!

I feel so empty inside.

Wanna buy a tranny?

Out with the old and in with the rebuilt

What is the best method of sliding the new one in?

Here is the final pics of the engine before I put the hood back on.

hows your engine vacuum with your cam and under a full pressure panic stop on dry roads to a COMPLETE stop? I didnt like the way mine felt (mine is differently setup though) and adding a vacuum pump teed in the the booster line worked and now the brakes are touchier than stock

It's not bad at all. I'm running 31" Baja Claws so braking wasn't as good as stock to begin with. I did away with the EGR so there is a slight bit of extra vacuum power there.

The next step in my plan is to upgrade to 02-05 Sport/Sport trac 12.8" front brakes and knuckles, maybe slotted rotors if the price is right. I may replace the master cylinder at that time too since the stocker is now about 12 years old.
