    Opinions on buying a truck

    I agree completely. Doing the job properly is 99.9% of the game. Too many people take shortcuts. The heads absolutly need to be checked for cracks and milled completely flat. Use Ford head gaskets, never Victor Reinz (Black Onyx). When you find a good head bulilder it's not a bad idea to...

    Caltracs

    That's exactly how they work. You can actually feel them plant the tires and lift the back of the truck when they leverage themselves on the springs.

    International IDM bottom kit/ ficm half shell

    Question. Does the reapir half have the circuit board and the half of the FICM cover it attaches to and you just bolt the other half of your case to it or ???. I'm trying to understand why these are so much less $$$ than the whole FICM. Pardon my ignorance, I've never had one apart.

    Help! Truck won't start codes

    I'm curious, how much did they want for a new one? Depending on their price you may be better of sending yours into Swamps for repair and getting a PHP tune on it while it's there. Kyle, what does the repair half run? ballpark. edit: Another question, do the FICMs have to be VIN matched to the...

    Loaded tune tranny missed a gear

    I did the same thig when I got my truck back together. I got excited to get out on the road and flog things out and totally forgot about the trans. I kept thinking "Why in the hell is the tranny taking so long to drop into gear?" and "WTF is with this shifting?". It took me a minute to remember...

    Loaded tune tranny missed a gear

    Did you do the initial trans relearn procedure? Shifting from P to R, R to D, D to R, R to P, several times in different combinations before taking off? This makes a huge difference in the amount of time it take the trans to relearn.

    BANG!!

    That was the first thing that popped into my head when I saw the pic. I'm sorry to see the damage. I hope nothing else in the motor got hurt. If you aren't planning on it already, it would be worth taking a look at your main bearings. Guys, Shawn is absolutlely right to be beating the...
