PI cams will be mine!

ujslost · May 2nd, 2007, 12:27 AM

Hooked up with a local stang banger out of B'ham and Im picking up a set of PI cams w/ gears and bolts thursday evening for $60!!!

MustangMatt96GT · May 2nd, 2007, 12:28 AM

Sweet! Hope they go in well! Cant wait for a review! My intake got shipped today and it take 3-5 days to get here! Cant wait for that either!

ujslost · May 2nd, 2007, 12:32 AM

Well since I am getting the cams and a set of 4.10 gears. Im gonna put the cams in first. I want to see what differance they make alone using my seat of the pants dyno! Although I can put the gears in myself quicker than the cams. I want to see what the cams are really gonna do for me. I will be glad to share any pics that I can get also along the way. I will be using my coach Casper and my online bookmarks on this!

MustangMatt96GT · May 2nd, 2007, 12:36 AM

Yeah! I want to know how it goes! PI aftermarket cams are next on my list after 4.10s! And you are going to do the 4.10s yourself? That is the one thing that I have decided to leave to a shop!

I just relized that I will have to take my strut brace tower off to do my intake! Same with you for doing the cams!

ujslost · May 2nd, 2007, 12:38 AM

yeah ive done 2 gears before.
I know about that damn brace. when i bought my car it had the cracked POS stock intake on it. So i have done an intake swap already, just not PI.

MustangMatt96GT · May 2nd, 2007, 12:41 AM

Ooo I see! How long did it roughly take you? I am really looking forward to doing this! All I ever want to do is throw down some wrenches! I have never really done a job this big on a large motor! I have done plenty of goped motors and lawnmowers, but those have gotten to be a little boring! I even have a friend that wants to come over and help me out!

ujslost · May 2nd, 2007, 12:43 AM

well to swap the plastic NPI over to the aluminum crossover NPI it took about an hour.

MustangMatt96GT · May 2nd, 2007, 12:47 AM

Thats it! Sweet I think I will budget around 5 hours though just because of the little more work involved and since its my first time doing a major mod on a motor! I am no dumby to working on cars, but it just makes me a little nervous the first time! Owel I want to learn and I will have a lot of fun doing it! And I believe that my intake might be crack slightly, because my intake seems to be leaking just a hair!

HOPEFULLY the write up will come saturday afternoon / night.

jaamfoster · May 2nd, 2007, 09:50 AM

Took me about five hours Matt. Hope you got all the tool to take the fuel line off.

Casper98GT · May 2nd, 2007, 10:19 AM

yeah if you can change that intake in an hour maybe even IM doing soemthing wrong.

ujslost · May 2nd, 2007, 01:50 PM

i didnt disconnect the fuel lines to swap the intake, just the the FI and FR off the intake and laid it back towards the windshield.
