    4.6 4v Teardown & Build Thread

    I don’t blame the shed for the paint. I blame the shed for the interior mold. The paint is mostly from me not having enough garage space for more than one vehicle and too much tree cover of the driveway for too many years. In 2019 I bought a 2017 Sierra 1500 Denali and that took the garage spot...

    4.6 4v Teardown & Build Thread

    Thanks. That pic was taken a while ago. It’s in pretty terrible shape right now. [emoji20] I had an unfortunate situation where I put it in my shed when the forecast was calling for hail and decided to leave it since I didn’t have garage space at the time. Unfortunately there apparently wasn’t...

    4.6 4v Teardown & Build Thread

    Oh, I also forgot to mention the IMRC delete. If you’re not using a cobra pcm and harness there are no electronics to run the IMRC. So I took them off, removed the blades from the shaft and put them back on. Someone used to (and may still) make a billet delete plate, but it was expensive and I...

    4.6 4v Teardown & Build Thread

    Yeah, mine is white too, that’s why I was thinking of it as well. I have white wheels and white accents on the interior, so I figured, carrying that through under the hood would be nice. The swap was honestly pretty straightforward and easy. The main thing that I had to modify were adding a...

    4.6 4v Teardown & Build Thread

    I'll be following this thread. I've been planning to build mine for years. Hopefully I'll get started soon. Mine was originally a GT that I did cobra swap on about 10 years ago. Interestingly enough, I also had the idea of powder coating the block black and valve covers white. I'll be...

    MM coil overs leaking

    So I've had the MM coil overs (bilstein/hypercoil) since late 2011. Last year the right rear shock started leaking, so I got it replaced under warranty. A month or so ago the left rear started leaking and has since leaked all the fluid out and needs to be replaced. I have an IRS in the car, so...

    Fuel injector leak testing

    What's the best way to check for leaking fuel injectors?

    Losing fuel pressure.

    Since there's no specific expedition section and it's the same engine/chassis, I figured I'd post this here. I have a 2002 expedition. 4WD 5.4. It's losing fuel pressure when it sits. Sometimes quickly, sometime it takes a while. For instance, the other day I took it to pick up some parts and...

    E85 questions

    So, I figured I'd consult the masses of knowledge, here, on this. I notice that a good number of people retune to be able to run E85. Many times with a result of more power. Can someone explain to me the pros and cons of running E85, when it's beneficial and when it's not, etc. Are turbo guys...

    WTB cobra front calipers and brackets

    Exactly what the title says. I need front calipers and brackets.

    Another brake question

    Is there any difference in the front calipers of a terminator and an SN95 cobra? And if so, what all would be needed to make the terminator calipers work on an SN95?

    Brake fitment question

    Will a GT front caliper work with a cobra rotor if I have the caliper bracket from a cobra? I know the piston in the cobra caliper is a little bigger, but will the GT caliper work if I have the cobra bracket?

    DBA T2 rotors

    Does anyone have any experience with these rotors? I'm thinking about getting a set, but I don't want to spend $200 on garbage. I definitely want something that's vented, though, cause I'm getting really tired of heavily warped rotors.

    T45 sealing cap

    Anyone know where I can get a sealing cap for a T45? I gotta replace my release bearing but I don't want to lose a bunch of fluid out of the trans while the driveshaft is out.

    iMac and VM gurus, I have some questions

    Hey guys, I've spent the last couple days researching online and I can't find any current info on this (2007 was the most recent I could find). Here's the deal... I ordered a new 21.5" iMac a week ago (anxiously awaiting its arrival). For some of the programs and things I use for school, and for...
