    Valve cover (when is the change?)

    I did an H.O. swap onto my 89 renix machine and the renix valve cover doesnt quite fit right, I got it to seal so I could drive it, but it isn't seating right? I posted in the WTB section but I need to know if any old H.O. cover will work or not, FWIW the head is a '96 I believe. Thanks Josh

    Valve cover H.O. (H.O. swap left me uncovered!)

    I am wondering if a late model compressor will bolt onto an 89 4.0? I am aware that you can conver from r12 to 134, but I also know that the pumps usually don't last as long being as they arent designed for the 134. I would like to swap in a newer pump so I can be assured that it won't crap...

    Ballancing engine during Rebuild?? Yes/No?

    Engine (4.0) is at the machine shop being punched .040 over, having cam bearings installed and New pistons pressed onto the rods.

    I am wondering what kind of drivability I can expect out of a set of 21 or 24lb injectors, on an otherwise stock 4.0L. Reason I am asking is that my injectors are pretty shot, and starting to leak (at the body itself, not the o-rings) and I am going to be building a stroker come mid summer. I...
