building a mild 4.0l need some help.
hello there its been a while since ive been on here.
i have been throwing the idea of building a mild 4.0 and building my trans.
basicly just do a normal rebuild throw a cam and valve train upgrade, maybe do the heads. i rember reading about a guy doing a cam in his while it was in the truck. comp cams makes two different cams cant rember why but most people go with the 410 cam anything wrong with the 422?
also dont know if im asking too much but im getting 16-17 mpg ritre now
(97 4.0l rebuilt 5r55e and 3.08 gears with an x cal from rouge tuning) i want to atleast keet that mileage.
also do i have to get special push rods made to fit the cam, if i rember rite the thread i saw he had to get them made to fit. if so anyone know the leingths?
