Re: Electric fuel pump

What kind of pump are you running now?

If I remember right, you bought a pro-comp chinese engineered piece of garbage from ebay.

I have a Holley blue pump... it's not loud enough to hear it over the engine.

Re: xxx block

Ok, I was just pointing out that all blocks after a certain year are a roller block. A valley girdle? Complete waste of money. Bolting your intake on will do the same thing that the valley girdle is going to do. And a main girdle isn't going to make the block any stronger. It might save some part's ...

Re: xxx block

Well, all block's after (don't quote me) but I think it's 1986 are a roller block. They just dont have the spider tray or dog bone things in there. A stock block is a stock block. It really depends on what your building, but the only 'slightly' better stock block would be a mexican block. The only r...

Re: My Build Thread

I think that both the box and the seats were a hell of a deal! Your not the only one. I agree. How much does a roll cage like that run? I might have to do that since my truck is kinda fast now :mrgreen: to be able to run at the track. It's a roll bar, not a cage. :) Here it is here [url]http://www....

Re: I've gone Turbo!!!

If you say that the old trucker had a header evac kit and was sucking oil out during acceleration is because I read somewhere that it creates too much vacuum and you have to put a valve in between so that doesn't happen but I'm really not sure but I don't have to worry about that because I'm not cr...

Re: My Build Thread

looks good so far. I like the seats and roll cage. Good luck with it! Thanks. I love the seats. They were a $200 craigslist special that some goofball had in his honda or something. I have always liked rollbars, so what the hell, I'll put one in. And when I go fast, I won't be in trouble at the loc...

Re: I've gone Turbo!!!

Why don't you plumb the lines to vent the crankcase out the front of the valve covers? I have heard of, and know that one person on this site, had a problem with sucking oil out of the back of the valve cover under acceleration. It was rojam (old trucker), but he was also using a header evac kit. I ...

My Build Thread

Well, I made one when I first got my truck about a year ago, but I guess I'll start a new one and try to keep updating it as I go along. So, I bought a 94 Ranger like a year ago and drove it home. Since that time, it looks like a bomb went off in the thing. It's going to be a 302/c4 swap. Just a str...

Re: 347 6-71 blower

I like the white color, look's real good. Hey, if you get the time, would you feel like taking some pictures of the setup you got for your tilt front end? Me and my old man were talking about doing it with mine. I know your's is fiberglass, mine would just be steel but getting all that crap out of t...

Re: Lowered Ranger with a Rear Sway Bar

On a side note, didn't Bronco 2's have a bigger (in diameter) sway bar that will bolt right onto the Ranger?
