Most of the 5.0 supercharger kits I see are geared towards carburetor setups. Does anyone know of one to be used with the explorer injection setup? So little information out there on this topic

Have a chance to pick one up with 150K miles, 4.0 Supposedly needs an oil pump. I'm guessing it will need a new engine. Trying to decide if picking it up could be profitable or not. If it were a normal ranger, Its in nice enough shape to fetch 4K ish. But I'm not sure if the thunderbolt...

Mild build 5.0 engine Explorer 8.8 rear end with disc brakes. I bought the rear end with a 3.55 Switch it over to 3.73 And noticed a bit of a difference, but it wasn't earth-shattering. Since I likely won't be doing any long-distance driving with it anymore, been thinking about switching to...

I have a stick shift ranger 3.0, it is eating fuel. 15 MPG or less. Used to get about 25 plus depending on driving habits and city/highway. Stock tire size, no check engine light. Runs Great. Engine is tight, no ticks knocks or anything. Stock exhaust. Truck drives straight as an arrow, no...

OK. SO. I ditched the stock explorer cam and went with a comp cams xtreme energy cam. The cam is 4 degrees advanced, and when using the cam sync tool, the syncro is pointed slightly off to the passenger side when it is lined up (as opposed to straight ahead with a stock cam). This would mean...

I know stock replacement headers are limited. Torque Monster is the only one I have heard of. And I hear they are no longer building them. Are there any other direct replacement options like the TMH headers? Otherwise, if I want headers building a new exhaust system would be the only option...

Ok so I have an 02 / 3.0 / manual trans. Started misfiring on cylinder 5 recently. As the problem progressed, I noticed the speedometers bouncing up to maximum speed and the odometer whirring by. This was accompanied with an engine code that said I was going too fast/ revving too high. After...

Anyone have any recommendations for a 5.0 Ranger tune with an SCT X3? Fred at Rogue is supposed to be doing it, but we got started and he disappeared on me. over a month ago. Been trying to get it tuned properly since I got my truck done, and I have had no luck. Need it done RIGHT, tired of...

Join Date: Sep 2012 Posts: 2 Vehicle Specs (Original Poster) v8 recommended performance mods? I am swapping a 98 5.0 Explorer drivetrain into my ranger, and I dont want to drop it in completely stock. I am assuming the motor is already set up with roller lifters? I was thinking a Cam...
