    Swaping a SBC in place of 231ci

    I did a V-6 to a V-8 swap in an old Ranger a few yrs back. I used the same yr engine because I had it. I ordered 2 Helms manuals 1 for each vehicle. Found which wires were the same and which ones I needed to either add or splice. Both were fuel injected so there was way more wires involved...

    Want to lower the rear...

    I just put a set of Eibach rear springs that said it lowers the rear .8 of an inch. It lowered it an inch nicely, mine are progressive rated so they will bounce back up when you add weight. The ones you have linked are not, so any weight in the back seat or trunk will make the car squat. The...

    If it is not shifting as you go then you have either a module issue or vacumm issue. You should be able to pull it back to 1st and shift manually all the way up to drive. Find where your module vacumm lines come up to the engine and unplug it, it should make the car idle differently. If it...
