You've routed your pcv hoses backwards. The passenger side goes to the vacuum source behind the throttle body and the drivers side goes to the plenum tube between the air filter and the throttle body. What you are hearing is air sucking in past the rear crank seal. When you pull vacuum on the fresh air side of the pcv system instead of the vacuum side it closes the pcv valve which operates like a simple check valve and the crank case cannot get fresh air unless it pulls it from a seal somewhere. Apparently the easiest seal to pull air past was the rear main crank seal. Reverse the two pcv hoses and the problem will stop. However you may have created an oil leak somewhere else as well.

Since the whine went away when you replaced the vent tube with a filter it'd be my guess that the whine was caused by the vent tube being clogged. You might try a vent tube with a built-in filter, but the vent filter is good enough.

The V6 Radiator may be enough to cool the V8 depending on the fan you put on it and it should bolt up. I used a factory 91 Fox Body Radiator originally when the 302 was in it, but I had to modify the radiator support and frame rails for it to fit. Good luck with the 347.

I installed a 91-92 Ranger 8.8 rear end in my 89, it's a direct fit. If you tried putting that in an '03, it would be 2" narrower.

I have a temp paint booth, not collapsible but I can break it down and put it back together. My issue with it is the overspray sticks to the plastic, I have the heavy duty stuff, so I take a water bucket and a wet cloth and wipe the overspray from the inside walls. IDK how the thinner plastic would work with that, but the overspray sticking to the plastic is a thing... trust me! I like the collapsible booth thought, I may try it in my garage, mine is in the basement right now.

These kinds of purpose built projects are always fun to do. You could reduce the wobble by inserting square cut wood (cut from 2x4's) the full length of each upright. Of course that adds weight, effort, and cost. I think I would have simply bought 2 each 12'x12' cheap pop-up canopies with walls from Walmart ... placed end to end ... zip-tied them together ... and thrown plastic drop cloths over the join. Cheers Bud.
@scmotorsports
@scmotorsports 3 ай бұрын
Yeah, I thought about the pop up canopies too. I've seen how people use those and they work pretty good. I didn't see any that would fit my application. Almost all of them have a peak on the roof which would hit my ceiling or I would have to lower it but then it might not be tall enough for what I'm painting. I also wanted to make sure the booth was as high as possible but low enough to be able to open the garage door too. I guess it all depends on the space you have to work with and what you intend to use it for. Thanks for watching.

One thing I can think of is your pipe diameter. 3 inch is more mellow and less raspy than a 2.5" also for as quiet as your looking for a straight through muffler like most of the ones you tried are not going to work. I have a chambered flowmaster on my 5.3 swapped blazer and it's nice sounding at idle and normal driving. But once you get spirited with the pedal it gets louder.

Going with a 3" exhaust did cross my mind. I figured if the Mustang comes factory with 2.5", that would work for me. Plus 2.5" is good size for that HP level. The Magnaflow XL's i originally had on the truck are Chambered mufflers and when I tried them, they were slightly louder than the Flowmaster Flow FX. Trial and Error I guess. :) Thanks for watching.

I have a 10 part series on the build of this truck if you want to watch how I did it. The biggest part of the job was replacing the front suspension and building custom headers. If you have a 93 Ranger and newer, I don't think you will have to touch the suspension, because it is IFS. Mine is an 89 with the Twin I-Beam. The steering box gets in the way of the alternator. Space is limited everywhere but I got it to fit. Good luck with your swap.

spintech 6000 series or the 9000xl series are said to sound similarly and I got some for my benz but have yet to install. cherrybomb vortec sounded good on my 04 silverado 4.8. Hooker aero chamber sounded alright on my 350tbi 2door tahoe. I ended up getting an 09 silverado and put blackwidow 250 and are pretty decent sounding for my 4.8l. All dual mufflers. I wanted to have it idle nice and mellow but have a nice loud roar when I floored them. All x pipes except 09 with Borla SwitchFire Resonator Delete X-Pipe for a mustang (it fit like a glove). I looked at some gibson MWA there are two versions but those go in the loud direction but do sound really, distinct. I'd get away from the flowmasters. that's such an old-man-90's thing now. same with hooker but, the aerochamber is a fun design. If you enjoyed the xpipe more than the hpipe, check out the above models. They all kind of have similar designs in mind and I think you'll see what I'm talking about. thank you for the video. I don't even like fords but it's fun anyways.

Sound is totally subjective. Had Flowmaster American Thunder on a Mustang and a Bronco in the 90s. Had the same on an 07 Mustang. Currently have a Magnaflow on an 03 Ranger with the FlexFuel 3.0. Planning a 302 swap, supercharged with Flowmasters. I think Flowmaster sounds the best overall and definitely sounded best on your truck.

Question? Where did you connect the Ford Red/Green 12V switched wire from the coil and C110 plug? You mentioned in the video to run it to the kick panel side to a wire, is the wire the same Red/Green wire at the kick panel?
@scmotorsports
@scmotorsports 5 ай бұрын
If I remember, that wire gets powered from the Ignition switch on the steering column. Then supplies switched 12V (while cranking) to the coil, distributor, and ECM power relay in the Passenger side kick panel. I left the wire going to the passenger side kick panel there as a good spare power supply. The Red/Green wire should run from that 4 way connection by the brake booster all the way over to the kick panel. I hope that helps.

Thanks for watching. I guess multiple reasons I went with Automatic: wanted anyone to be able to drive it, i already had an auto in it before this swap, I didn't want to have to redo the center console, I got a really good deal on the Auto trans. I was trying to keep the swap as budget friendly as possible too. Funny thing is, the truck was originally a 5 speed manual. As for the gauge cluster, I was hoping to keep it as stock looking as possible. I had thought about a custom cluster but space is kind of at a premium, cluster isn't that big. I could have gone with a all electric screen as my cluster but same with gauges, the price starts to add up quick.
