[updated:LAST EDITED ON 21-Nov-02 AT 08:44 PM (EST)]I got my headers today! The exhaust adapter seems to be 2.5 inches and i am going to run 3 inch exhaust, what can i do about this? Well i guess it has to be smaller than your exhaust so it can be bolted on. I got the intake manifold and the heads pulled today, woohoo. Spent alot of time lathing my rotor on my ranger though, damn brake pads. Have to get a new rotor because it is thinner than the discard thickness of .964 in. Crap.
EDIT: This is funny. We had sooooooo much trouble getting the distributor out! We had to use the friggin cherry picker, and it lifted the front end of the truck 7-8 inches off the tires!

Ok, i would really like to make 400 horsepower, what do i need to do that? So far I have headers, performer rpm intake manifold, edelbrock performer 750 cfm carb, i am still prepping the heads to get them ported, then i will get a new cam and a timing gear set, i will be running dual exhaust. What else can i do that is not too radical but will put me over the 400 horsepower mark? Could i find some pistons from a earlier model with a higher compression ratio? I would really love to just have that much horsies.
