How much boost can I safely do on the stock internals of my 1990 5.0L in my
Ranger?? Do you think it will handle 12 to 14psi without being a bomb??

Re: Project Dropzone..
Why did you cut the fire wall? Why not just move the motor up? Looks like you have lots of room to have been able to move the motor forward..

Re: motor mounts 96 2wd
I used my stock V6 mounts and have never had a problem... Just made the flat plate and can put the motor as far up or as far back as you want... My V6 mounts are still the ones that where put in it in 86..

Re: motor mount plates for 2000 coil suspension??
:) I hope to swap a V8 in my '01 one day. I think a 3V 4.6 would be nice... With one of those whistling intake manifolds. Mine may not be a 4.6, but I do like the whistle/wine it makes.. lol...

Re: Coolant temp sender?
You can also go buy a new t-stat housing for a 90's 5.0 and it will have a plug in it that you can remove and put your sensor in..
