As for the motor, we hit a snag. We first found that we needed to run valve guides to prevent the rockers from moving. We found Comp guides locally. Anyone ever been to Harrisons Machine Shop?:eek: It is a tinyass shop packed to the gills with random old perfomance parts. It is over behind House of Tires.
Anyhow, once I installed the guides, the bottom of the rocker would bottom out on the stud (screw in studs) I have been using a Dremel to take out some material on the bottom of every rocker. It is getting there.
Brandon, I hope to have your hoist and stand back this weekend or at latest, next weekend. Thanks alot.
It is part of Warns hidden mount lineup. I think they make them for the Big 3. Unfortunately, for the F150, you have to run a special XD9000 with a shorter drum that only allows for 50 ft. I was able to fit 60ft of rope on it though.Quote:

How long would it take to just turn down the lip on a mill/lathe? It just seems that w/ it being recessed, it would be a bit stronger.Quote:

ah, didnt know that... back to optimistic position.
you make up your own mind, if they taco i dont want you blaming me.
***, I may just get the big grinder out and take the lips off and be done w/ it.
Got alot done today but have alot to do. I bought a new 36 and got it mounted it up. I paid for the 6 ply, and it was labeled with the 6ply part number, but says 10 ply on the tire.:gigem:
I got some new Flowtech headers for $58 through Kyle at advance. They were discontinued. I got them mounted and found that the drivers side exhaust does not match up to the new header (ran stock mustang manifolds before), so I need to fix that.
Other than that, I got the plugs in, some brackets bolted up, the fuel rail on with new o-rings and stems. Put in a new o2 sensor as well. Still alot left to do but getting there.
sweet, thanks for the tip, we'll be picking up a set for the f150 tomorrow, thats just too good of a deal to pass up.Quote:
