Hey infecteddog, we had a baby so it's been awhile since I've been here, I'm back at it though. Where would I find an OBD-11 computer? And who could tune it once I get everything in? Right now I'm Looking to keep the fuel injection and put on a Edelbrock performer that supports my multi port and...

Thanks, I appreciate that and I'll try a fuel injected forum. Maybe I'll see ya this summer! I'll touch base with you if I can make time to make it over.

Good to know! I'll have to make it over. Do you know any other tricks I can do to a multi port fuel injected 318 without havin to reflash the computer?! (I hear that's more expensive then buying new parts) all the bolt on stuff is done but I want more without having to do a full rebuild. Any...

Any of you interested in Comin up to Canada to ride on the hood of my truck to see if I'm getting the suction I want by holding your hand over my cowl?! I got a blow up mattress in the basement and my wife makes a mean pasta dish!!

Thanks SSBA, I'll check that out for sure, and Rumblefish, my magnum 318 runs so strong right now that I can't justify a re build. I'd love a 408 stroker one day. For now I'm just trying to get the most with simple bolt on. I've got shorty block headers and full exhaust, electric fan, throttle...

Bythe way, thank you guys for your patience and your knowledge!

Rumblefish, I had read the article in that original post and it was awesome! I just don't really have any means of fabricating it myself. Unforunately with a new born and money tight, I was looking for a simpler solution that would find me with some gains. Rather than fabricate like in the...

I was also thinking of plumbing directly off the front. If I cut holes in the metal on either side of the rad, those holes open up directly behind the front grill where there should be tons of air. Tubes from those holes plumbed all the way back to a sealed air box.....thoughts?

Damn, every time I figure it out I get better ideas. Try to picture this.....cowl hood, sealed air box sitting atop my throttle body, two bent 4" pipes running out eifher side offje airbox backwards and up to the opening of the cowl with two conical filters facing each other nose to nose. From...

Hey Mopar56, I've got a 4 speed auto with overdrive (that's pretty much my knowledge of trannys) although 6 weeks after I bought it the tranny blew on it and I had it rebuilt. The guys in Langley asked if I had plans for the truck, I said yes and they rebuilt it supposedly to handle anything I...

Thanks for the words of wisdom! I think I've come up with a great plan. Spectre has 2 intake kits a 762 (dual cannister) and a 7168 (with a 16" air hat). Right now I need performance and I believe either one of these are my best solutions for cold forced air! I just need to see which one has...

For those with more experience than I, I'm hoping to figure out which hood will give me greater airflow. I have a Pro Flo Edelbrock 14" round air cleaner with breathable lid and was wondering if open nostrils in an RT hood would allow more air in than a 3" cowl hood. Hood will be on a 92' D150...

Thank you kindly!

Hey 1970Duster, the intake from summit, any idea of what gains I'd see with that direct bolt on?! The single plane opening also looks like it should be for a 2 Barrell carb....am I just deceived by the picture?

Wow, thanks!! I knew coming to this website would really help me out! I don't have an end goal as of yet just because the motor is currently strong and really not in need of anything, I just got tired of not being able to tinker on it and was looking at another step up. Youve both given me lots...
