mass air conversion
hi guy's, This is my first time using this forum. It seems to be a great place to find out stuff about ford trucks. I have a problem and i hope there is someone out there that can HELP ME. I just purchased a 1996 F250 WITH A 351W. I would like to know if there is a mass air conversion kit that i can install. As of right know, I have the speed density system which i was told that i can't upgrade my injectors to 24lbs as the engine won't perform properly. In the future i would like to upgrade the engine to a strocker engine. If there is anybody out there that might know, please help me!

With a stroker and good heads, those 24lbs/hr will be too small anyway. I'd go for around 36lbs/hr ones for a 392/408. You do not want your injector duty cycles over 80% typically

If you have a big metal thing attached to it and then goes to the throttle bodies then you are MAF. Like a big "Y".
If you have two seperate tubes from air box to the throttle bodies you are Speed Density.
Also...I think the factory MAF trucks with the 302 are a 1-3-7-2-6-5-4-8 firing order like the 351W and HO 302.

I have every bolt-on currently on my truck.A 4R70W is an excellent trans...basically all the shortcomings of the AOD are in this: lower gears, bigger OD drum+band, stronger internals, bigged 3rd drum. Just stick a TransGo shift kit in there and it will shift great.
Also, since it is electronic you can get a custom burned chip that will let you set your shift points to whatever you want. Stupid AOD can only get to 5500rpms without manually holding gears. I need to get a TransGo governor kit that goes to 5500rpms and play with it to see how to lighten the weight to get the shifts up.

well its that its electronic that worries me cuz that means its too smart for its own dang good. Plus lately when i'm just barely on the gas pedal it shudders. as for what i'm thinking of adding under the hood i have sum AFR heads in mind & if i can convert it to use a single throttlebody either GT-40 intake or a Mustang Cobra intake & then i'll start to really git evil on it
