really gonna have to Side with Turbo on this one... Never heard of them messing up anything.. but still would love to hear how they mess up the Altenator.

bobb17 · May 21st, 2008, 09:26 PM

yea if it messes up my alternator then nevermind

i was just really looking because i wanted something that looked a little better under the hood

haven't heard of them messing up your alternator but have heard they don't spin the alternator as fast so it doesn't charge as well. I know I had that prob on my 5.0 after putting them on.

u/d pullies really aren't expensive tho.. but i would do some other upgrades first

like the cai, header, cam & valvetrain, etc.

bobb17 · May 26th, 2008, 10:17 PM

yea ive got the cai, and im looking into buying a xr4ti so ill prob jut save for that cuz it needs to be rebuilt when i get it

ive heard that the manley rods and wiseco pistons are the best combination for this engine?

and one more question, what length rod do i need to get for this engine: 5.2", 5.5", 5.7", 5.83", or 5.930"? and should i overbore the engine?
