I really don't care if you don't like the 3.0 but, As I've told clueless, bashing the 3.0 is bashing Rangers and that I take offense to.
The 3.0 was put into the taurus and the probe also, drama queen.

this thread is hilarious. it takes about all I've got to not reply to dusty ranger's dumbass but I will say this-if you don't have a 3.0 why are you posting in the 3.0 forum? telling people you learned how to turn a bolt when you were eight shows nothing for your intelligence. if you grew up in a shop, why are you going to collEge? you could be making money now wrenchin on cars rather than pumping gas. as for me staying in school, I'm on my way to a bachelors and I've got an associates of engineering science to prove it. do us all a favor and stop tryin to dumb us up with your worthless posts.

I am in no way bashing rangers, if you ever talk to anyone I know personally, they'll tell you I'm a ranger fan through and through. I bleed blue. I'm just having a little trouble with my particular motor right now and thought I'd be able to tap into the aftermarket a little. I'll look into getting a custom ground cam but it'll probably be outta my preferred price range. If I pull it apart and the cam is visually OK I'll probably just replace the lifters and call it good.

Ive been reading all your posts knocking the 3.0L Vulcan, just becasue it is not a prefered off road engine, does not make it a turd, infact judgeing by your posts, a ranger with a stock engine in general is not going to cut it with you, From my personal expereince a 4.0L is not all that impressive either.

And before you comment im not claiming to 3.0 to be a powerhouse, but like most would agree with what it lacks in power it more than makes up in reliability.
And from the looks of your truck {which i do like}you're already all but killing what power the Vulcan has to offer

Now with that said the only point i want to get across is just because the Vulcan dont fit you particular appilcation doenst make it any less of an engine


who cares if i have a 3.0L im 100% positive my 2.9L will run circles around you
That might be since i dont know your truck but i'm 100% positive Mine will still be running circles , when yours is only a memory
