    4.6 swap...

    LOL unfortunately I did see that episode... if I remember correctly they cut a big chunk of the cross-member away to clear the pan, or maybe that was on another "build" they take the torch to so many it is difficult to keep track :/

    What is involved/how feasible is it to swap the 4.6 from a '97 Mk into a mid-70's Ford pick-up? Thanks

    not hot and not cold

    thanks, I will check them out! I found a really good posting on one of the other forums, can't remember which one at the moment, with step-by-step photos and it looks less daunting than I had anticipated just rather time consuming.

    not hot and not cold

    Thanks! Just looking online- the actuator replacement looks pretty involved/time consuming. Where is the best place to source one?

    not hot and not cold

    UGHHH- My 97 LSC has decided to stop blowing anything but air... no a/c and no heat- just the ambient temp air. Any suggestions on where to start?

    Help on my 98 lsc please!!!

    I recently cut the mufflers off my 97 LSC and replaced with straight pipes. The rest of the system is stock with the cats and everything. It has a nice sound, not overly loud but throaty, and doesn't drone on long trips . Try it as a starting point.

    Whats yours?

    Just rolled over 305,000 . The guy I bought it from owned it from day one- he bought it off his lease when it was up. He used it for long distance business trips and was meticulous with maintenance- synthetic every 5,000 miles etc. I have put 3,500 miles on it and not used a drop of oil yet. The...

    Magnaflow sound?

    My order is more a matter of convenience than anything: some pipe, a couple of hangers and a few clamps, a sawzall and an hour of my time is all I have invested. I have to say that the mod has proven detrimental to my mpg's lol, before I just tooled around and now I am a bit heavier with the...

    Magnaflow sound?

    Thanks! The interior noise is not excessive at all, def not intrusive on conversations or listening to the radio at normal levels. I do like the idea of x-pipe and magnaflows, and while the Pypes tips look nice my stock tips are in good shape so I really want to go with them again.

    Magnaflow sound?

    Thanks for the advice everyone. Exhaust note is, as with most things, subjective. I had some freetime the other day so I removed the mufflers and installed some straight 2"dia sections in their place, just to get an idea. I must say that it does not sound at all harsh or "blabbery" though I...

    Magnaflow sound?

    With my cat's and everything being intact still I am thinking that I won't get a noticeable increase in exhaust note. Might not be worth the investment at this point. Though while I am sitting at a stop light the one muffler rattle is rather annoying :(

    Magnaflow sound?

    I am just going for some rumble right now, have to do it in in steps as budget permits so cat and x-pipe will have to be at a later date :(
