explorer 8.8 in an a-body: experience needed

"Somewhat" sure works well, no disrespect, but I'd rather let my pedal tell me what's right or wrong then some uptight tech who's from 3k miles away up at 2am who has never driven my car flaming me. I'm sticking to my story, I sleep well at night.

Thanks for the info, alternate sides and weld a little at a time then, no need to condescend. Hey that rhymes! :D
