    How to; install and removal of crank reluctor

    Well, I taped it with a hammer and it broke free and slid right off. It is not an interference fit, it just slides on and off. Pics;

    How to; install and removal of crank reluctor

    I'm doing a 454 swap in my truck and am adding CNP to the 454 so I need to swap the 4X reluctor with a 24X reluctor. How is the reluctor wheel removed and installed? thanks Neal

    Dash Kits Metra Double Din

    question for you guys with the Metra kit, does the top of the column hit the bezel when the wheel is tilted up? Mine hits pretty hard and is leaving scuffs on the top that can be seen when the wheel is down. I'm going to try and re position the bezel and see if I can resolve this. Was...

    Dash Kits Metra Double Din

    The radio opening in the new bezel is about 1/8" off center to the drivers side, don't really see any way to correct this except to trim the radio mount/clip down and sim the other side. Not sure when I'll pull it out to do this, I think my favorite app is Torque and Dash command with this new...

    Working on installing the Metra DP-3003 and an Android head unit (ebay) but the head unit didn’t fit the opening in the bezel. The opening in the Metra bezel was only 6 ¾” wide and the head unit is 7” so I looked up the size of a DDIN radio, it is supposed to be 7”. Anyone else that used the...

    HELP WITH VOLTAGE DROP!

    Check the voltage at the sensing wire on the alternator, should be brown, while you have it loaded up. The sensed voltage should control the output of the alternator if all is working as it should. If everything is good there then you have a voltage drop issue with the cables. From what I've...

    96 AC help

    If it still has some pressure on it, get a bottle of the kids bubbles like used with the little blow through hoop, put it in a spray bottle and spray everything down with the engine cold and watch for bubbles. I chased mine for a while until I sprayed the suction hose, it was perforated and...

    The 0411 made a noticeable improvement, The tune was also warmed over so between upgrading to the 0411 and the tune it is more fun to drive even with the 5.0 I upgraded the injectors prior to the PCM install I would recommend the PCM upgrade to all, Neal

    L29 engine specs

    I'm running a 0411 PCM now so I'll be ordering another one tuned for the CNP set up along with a warmed over tune for the 7400. That should get it running pretty good, if I have any issues I'll look into a dyno tune to line it out. Neal

    L29 engine specs

    I would think if your upgrading to the point that you have the engine apart then yes if you want to spend the money. I would thing that to upgrade the valve train and have the PCM tuned would be the best option and money well spent. My plans are to keep it as close to factory as possible so...

    Here is a quote form our conversation; I do a stump puller for these. It is 206/220 .470/.420 lift on a 109. Makes around 520#/ft and 350HP. I asked specifically if this set up would work with the factory tune and FI, he commented that he had installed this cam in many of the Mercury EFI...

    Talking with Chris Straub at Straub Technologies he grinds a custom cam that will bring you to around 350HP and 520 TQ with factory FI. I've got a 7400 that I'm converting to CNP and the Straub Tech cam upgrade for my Z71 K1500 Neal

    AC problem :(

    That's only part of it, as I posted above the other reason is to remove the air Neal

    AC problem :(

    Air is non-condensable, you must pull a vacuum anytime the system is opened or it will never work correctly. Air left in the system will always cause extremely high head pressure, The picture you posted of the part leaking appears to be the service port for the gauges, If you have a air...
