    Odd hesitation

    Same thing started bogging down about 40 in 2nd. Up to 3rd. Difference this time was if I kept my foot in the gas a bit I could still speed up slowly. Before I lost all power completely. Evens out about 60 and now on the freeway it stopped bogging down. Very intermittent. 1993 F250 3k in the...

    Odd hesitation

    My trans is new just put in. It was getting around 12mpg and the worse the problem got the worse my mileage seemed to get and my test drive last night was maybe 15 miles and it drank almost a quarter tank. Anyone think a coil could give these symptoms? 1993 F250 3k in the 460-my 1st truck...

    Odd hesitation

    Really the accelerator pump would cause something like that? I didn't realize it would. I already expected a problem with it because when I'd open the rear jets it would hesitate then take off. I was going to order a rebuild kit tomorrow from cliffs high performance, they claim the new pump...

    Odd hesitation

    Ok I've got a 73 K20 that apparently has an 80s 350. Lately it drastically hesitates while going down the road. It started doing it a couple weeks ago but only did it maybe once in a week(when id get fuel) and I thought my carb just needed to be rebuilt but now it does it constantly. Ill be...

    Rebuild suggestions

    Ya it's nuts. I'm not even sure what my fords gearing is right now. After everything I did to the engine it gets about 4mpg. Theres a huge hill by my house and my gas needle always dropped a bit going up then went back up at the top. First pull on the new engine the needle never went back up...

    Rebuild suggestions

    That's kinda what I was thinking that's why I'm thinking bore and stroke. Little more money but I want to replace most of that anyways and it's still cheaper than buying a whole new engine for the truck that already has one in it.

    Rebuild suggestions

    I gotcha. I kinda like the sound of what you got there for the Chevy. It is an auto. I was thinking about swapping to a standard but I'm thinking just to much work. I learned my lesson about converters in high school, I did a medium build and larger cam in a truck with the stock converter and it...

    Thanks for the suggestions. Ya I've heard roller cams are better for bigger power but they cost a lot more so of prefer to stay away. I'm not really sure what size I should be shopping for. I was hoping for at least 400hp and a little more torque. Rpm range uhm I haven't really thought about...

    My 350 is stock. I was planning .030 over and also considering stroking it for some extra power. Do Flat tops work better with the flat tappet cam set up? Also I'm planning on bigger than an RV cam. I have one in my 460 and I wish I had gone bigger. I've heard vortec heads here and there...

    Rebuild suggestions

    Thanks for the responses guys. I feel like I should have added a little more about what I'm looking for. 350hp is ok but honestly I was hoping for more. I was hoping for around $5k to be top number on the engine build but I could save more. I got this truck for very cheap from my cousin and I...

    So I have a 73 K20 with a 350. I'm starting to save for a rebuild so I need to price things out and I definitely want to build it up a bit. What I'm looking for is any advice you can give me. Right now I'm thinking of boring it and probably stroking it. I definitely want a bigger cam but I'm...

    Headlight issue

    I figured out the issue. The ground wire from one of the switches I believe was broke off. Re ground it and now they work fine. 93 F250 3k in rebuilt 460 03 Xterra on 32s-stock for now 2005 Mustang-stock for now

    Headlight issue

    So when I turn the headlights to bright I have only one working light and when I dim them they both come on but barely produce any light at all. Where do I need to start looking? 93 F250 3k in rebuilt 460 03 Xterra on 32s-stock for now 2005 Mustang-stock for now

    Fuel Gauge

    Lately my fuel gauge stays at right around 3/4 no matter how much gas it has, it also stays up there when the truck isn't running. From what I've read it seems the circuit board might have a problem? I'm just not sure where to start looking. I never knew how inconvenient having no fuel gauge...
