    Turbo Rebuild Kit

    I was hoping you had the Banks turbo when I clicked on this thread, that is what I have. I have been interested in getting rid of the big giant banks square turbo air intake, and I think I read somewhere that an ATS hat would replace that big square intake. Anyone comment on that?

    Centurion Bronco build

    I have no fab skills, but to my untrained eye, it seems harder to build from scratch, than using a frame that already exists. One of these days I may be good enough to 1/4 of that... :)

    Anyone local to southern California want to time a truck

    No, automatic. E40d. Not sure if it is relevant or not, but for a when this first started happening, a short time later there was a additional sound, coming from the bottom of the engine, bell housing area (where you could hear it easiest) that sounded like a loose piece of sheet metal or...

    Anyone local to southern California want to time a truck

    One more thing, there is a slight vibration in the frame as it passes the point where it stops and starts, when it reaches that point if you rev the engine past that point and then let it fall back to idle. I havent been driving it much, dont want to make a problem worse when it might be an...

    Anyone local to southern California want to time a truck

    It is a bit hard to describe, but will try. At idle or just above, there is what sounds like cross between something loose and a vibration. At higher rpm it seems to go away, or maybe it is just not apparent because of engine noise or movement. I live near whittier, ca.

    Rattle and vibration - not typical - at idle and around 1350 rpm

    All the bolts on the cowl are tight across the width of the car, just that one corner that is making that noise... is there a spacer or shim that is supposed to be in the corner that it butts up against when tightened in? the passenger side is fine...

    Rattle and vibration - not typical - at idle and around 1350 rpm

    It does not seem to be touching anywhere. Literally, it seems to be that piece I am tapping in my video and something below it as well. I don't see what holds in that louvered piece at all to tighten it, maybe under the windshield, going to poke around more tomorrow. too late tonight, too...

    Rattle and vibration - not typical - at idle and around 1350 rpm

    Seems cross frame support at the firewall is an issue on obs trucks around my year, think this could be related to that? If not, what is down there that could be loose?

    ANOTHER E4OD Thread? Rebuilt, Sat a Year, Now.....

    Wish I could find a good trans shop down here in my neck of the woods. Had a rec for a shop from my old mechanic, they said my trans on my last ford was bad, dropping metal everywhere and might go a couple of months if lucky. That was a year and a half ago. I might have had them replace it at...

    Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. Two very long work days, but say the notes and wanted to get back to both of you. I bought new bolts for the inspection cover, not the flex plate. They were so tight and rounded off that I had to get a tool to back them out. I think you already...

    So moving the torque converter back and forth is ok? I thought I messed things up maybe by getting things out of line moving the torque converter back and forth... thought I recalled reading online that if you put it in the wrong direction, it messes up the values and alignment and then...
