Also about the intakes, the Dorman intakes are nowhere as good as the factory PI Intake

That intake is gonna cost you 20hp or so. Its been dyno proven. You can drill out the coolant port and add a brass nipple. Thats what I did to mine.

I got my permit today and Craig uploads? Hell yeah

Pro tip, You should always measure from the base to the tip.

I can't wait for my headers to come in so I can hear the full proper exhaust setup I'm rolling with in my obs 460 f350 and am rolling with black widow for as long as they make stuff for sure

"I'm going to take a measurement from the tip to the base....Then I'm going to SHORTEN it an half inch"

You ain't kidding about the vic crossmember. Those things like to stay where they are lol. My Dad, brother and I started greasing them up before we put them back in, makes it a lot easier the next time.

A Victor Jr. will fit under the hood

2005+ panthers are drive by wire 👍

The joys of transmission removal with long tube headers! Good times!!

That's always the one that gets em "yeah, why don't you come do it then ,I'll wait " No one ever shows up and you just end up doing it your way anyway.

Finally got my SMK and 909 stickers ordered getting ready to put on my truck

Nine hundred nInth like! What a serendipity- doo- dah.

Literally what I’ve been wanting to do to mine lol already got the headers/stainless exhaust just waiting till I can get a tr3650 eventually when funds allow lol awesome build! Manual in a crown vic is such a dream 💪

I think 1 or 2 catch cans to take the oil out of the vapors being recirculating back into the intake would get rid of that smoke. It also keep the intake runners clean. Check JLT to see if they have catch cans for that car.

They make all aluminum intakes for the vic. Little pricey but its worth it. Maybe a future upgrade for ya.

Make sure no coolant or oil is down in the spark plug holes- also the pcv system likes to collapse the rubber grommets.

Love your work ethic Craig keep grinding! Thanks for being so cool at SEMA. Ford projects coming 😊!
