Non-FE Discussion Forum / Ford 8.8 Clutch Pack Minimum Thickness
« on: November 01, 2025, 01:01:48 PM »
Any one have a Ford Document that gives a minimum thickness for a clutch pack? I'm finding videos than mention minimums in the workshop manual, but don't find anything in Alldata or TSBs.

It is a 2001 Ranger 8.8 Track Lock, Door Code R7 Axle Model S333W (at least I think thats what the tag says, someone undercoated it for all the good it did the housing...)

TIA

FE Technical Forum / 67-72 Bumpside LMC Exhaust

#SickofRustyHeaders

Has anyone bought the LMC Dual Exhaust Exhaust lately?

Actually Mandel Bent? Fit OK? Arrived undamaged? If you got turbo mufflers what were they?

I absolutely would not use the same lifters.

FE Technical Forum / Flat Tappet Cam Cores.
« on: August 08, 2025, 08:13:28 AM »
We heard a while back that a lot of these were going away and a lot of flat tappets for various engines went out of stock with no ETAs.

I happened to notice one of the big vendors has Howards "CJ" cams in stock after showing NLA...

Did we get a new core manufacturer and if so are they any good?

(This is purely academic, I'm not buying one.)

AGREE

More specifically based on these numbers installed as ground IVC is 61.5.

You should go look at some of brents cam videos start with the one about common mistakes in picking cams.

I think the group is going to need a definition of "well built" and "close to 10:1" to go further.

Agree with clean dan.

Also have to keep in mind with very few exceptions (like Brent and Powell) the tube of you is  entertainment...

Isn't UT the one that outed the car at Kiwis after he promised not to and got Kiwi in lukewarm water with his customer? Or at least that was the story.

FE Technical Forum / Re: Why is my idle changing???
« on: April 10, 2025, 07:01:40 PM »
I had a car (not an FE) act like that and it was the advance weights sticking.

/in that particular case when it was idling high i could bump the clutch and it would idle down.
