go to napa or partstrain.com jegs look arounf for a 4.2 crank as this is the crank for the stroked 4.5-7 engine. this site should answer all your questions http://www.ajeepthing.com/stroker-motor.html
most of my buds say its a jeep thing... ive heard i think it was here that some guy makes a wiring kit that will change all that.. not sure where i read it on here though
well I'm not gonna get that one cause my mechanic friend has 44's front and rear ou tof a grandwagoneer and i said ill give him $200 for em and i think he likes the sound of that! think they are too wide? and did the 60's have drums up front?
thats a pretty lookin engine! :eek: :popcorn: could stare at it all day! not to familiar with buick engine mostly chevy's and atv engines. speaking of atvs.. if anyone wants a 87 Tecate 4 (250 2-cycle power valves, 6sp, ect) ill be selling it in the spring!
ahh sorry about making you seem like a fart. ive never heard a 3.8 called a 3800. i see it as if its an off roader why not make it loud? but thats just me.
what engine is the 3800? 327 mark III or 350, 305, 383, 405 or big block? us new englander care more of what a car/truck sounds like than what it looks like, but I'm also 16 and not grown up.
well, the theory is that longer exhaust means more low end power and a shorter exhaust means more horsepower. but if you want to run a high flow muffler and cat then your going to get more ho and more torque. when you do this you can use stock diameter tubing and you then run the glasspack backwards if you choose that or you can just go down in the size of tubing you use. i wouldnt say your gonna loose any torque but then iv never run a stock exhaust and had it on a dyno vs. a truck with a shorter one on a dyno to see torque differences. but from my time of hanging around dragstrips and racecar drivers that shorter exhaust is better.
Well in New Hampshire, (I'm not sure about fl) you can have the exhaust stop anywhere after the "passenger area" probably in Florida too. If i were you id just put on the muffler and then have the exhaust come out behind the cab. You can buy all the tubing you need to do it online or at an exhaust shop. Also it would be cheaper to have it done that way if you hire someone to do it.
just put in dome pistons and a torque cam and a edlebrock 650 or 750 dual feed and then say its got no power! injection systems work too. if you can try to get a chevy 4.3 as they are a very nice engine and arent to hard to come by. someone should make the conversion for the tranny.
