    true cold air vs cold air

    Vato, exhaust wrap is probably the best way to go as far as insulating your intake. Another option I've seen is an intake wrap from like the one in this link. HTH. Also the e-fans don't put a heavy load because they don't draw that much current. That shouldn't be a problem. They do, however...

    My 97 Expo's Front Bumper Bummer.

    From what I've seen in prior posts/ threads, to achieve the look you're after, you'd have to change the front bumper and valance, as well as the front grill shell. I'm not sure about anything else, but from what I've seen between the two, that's pretty much it.

    true cold air vs cold air

    To put in my .02 here, I used to have a 90 Integra. The only time I noticed a difference was when I heat wrapped my intake, and took air in from behind my bumper. I know I'm using a honda to compare, but this car was where I picked up most of my knowledge from. Either way, an engine, is an...

    Replacement Shocks

    So far as I can tell, no, you don't need special shocks. For the rear, that is. Do you have the LLS in the rear, or all 4 corners?

    mid captain seat and 2 inch drop on rear

    They do have second row seating for our year Expy. I think it was just available in the Navs of the same year though. Good thing is, if you have the tan leather interior, the Navs interior is the same color. Good luck finding them though.

    bad cats

    Or, as was said on FTE, if your exhaust smells like rotten eggs, and your truck bogs and runs like ass, that's usually a good indication.

    Best place to buy parts

    Way to contribute to the crime. Anyway Kruzer, ^this guy is right about ebay, wrong on the thief tip. Usually, people part out their cars when the engine siezes, they wreck them, whatever, to make as much money as possible instead of selling it to a junk yard for a few hundred dollars. Ebay...

    Powerstroke in an Expy

    Well, I wasn't thinking about just the engine. I was thinking more along the lines of the engine, tranny, rear end, and shortened HD driveshaft, and custom 5 lug axle shafts to take the power the diesel puts out.

    Powerstroke in an Expy

    I know this has probably been discussed before, but what are the chances of being able to shoehorn an 01 Powerstroke engine into an 01 Expy? Also, what kind of cost would one be looking at?

    K&N FIPK Intake and Flowmaster exhaust

    Going back to the stock diameter would definitely help. Like Green said, if it isn't tuned (which of course, is more money) 3" is not worth the trouble. If you want a little reduced back pressure, and the sound, just swap the muffler and use stock piping.

    Performance heads??

    I've heard of people using Navigator heads on the old 2 valve 5.4 blocks. I'm not entirely sure what the swap entails, but it has been done. I've also read in Ford Performance Trucks magazine, of a few Lightning guys doing it, but they worked the hell out of the block and heads.

    20 x 10 inch wheels

    Well that tire calculator I used said I'd be doing 64.something MPH when the speedo said 65. Not much of a difference as well as the RPMs would be a bit lower at that speed compared to stock. I haven't tried it out yet, so this is all just speculation.

    20 x 10 inch wheels

    Let me correct myself. I looked up a tire size calculator and found out that the factory tires on the truck measure over 10 inches wide as is. So the new tire size according to the calculator would be 295/45/20 on the wheels I'm looking at. That width would make the tire about 11.6 inches wide...

    20 x 10 inch wheels

    I'm sure a 305 tire would fit on the rim. I'm just wondering about how far the rim would stick out with the same offset the stock wheels have (which I'm really not sure what the stock offset is). But, with a 305 tire, my guess would be that the tire would be a 305/45/20. BTW thank you...

    20 x 10 inch wheels

    Anyone ever put 10 inch wide wheels on 97-02 Expy's or Gators? And if so, did they stick out at all, and by how much? Also, was there any rubbing issues when turning lock to lock? Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.
