What rear end setup are you running?

I used to run between 12.2 & 12.8 with my '91 Mustang GT. I had upgraded heads, 1.6 roller rockers, Ford B-302 cam, 3.55 gears, shorty headers, Flowmasters and a short throw shifter & Centerforce clutch. I had about 325 HP at the flywheel. Car weighed around 3000 lbs. It was built more as a street car as it also had sub-frame connectors. Car had zero body roll in the twisties. Fun times. My 1/4 times vastly improved once I learned how to power shift.

This what I been waiting for since I found your channel!

I love that textured ABS plastic sheets. I made the whole face of my rangers dash and console with that stuff

Impressive power potential the modern 5.0's have, just wish they didn't sound like European v8's.

I have been following a while. Super impressed by how thorough you are on these videos and how well you think things out. I'm not good at that, so I just live vicariously through you :D. Great work!

Installed one in my '02 Ranger a couple of years ago. Came with Android Auto. Easy install, but needed to fabricate a bezel as the stereo wasn't solidly in there without it. Best upgrade on my Ranger for sure.

What year ranger

What

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.

It might be leaking vacuum around a seal

Cracked line..Squeeking

Bad PCV valve causing high vacuum and it's sucking on the main seal.

Donvict's voice, then MTG's, are far worse.

The reason why it sounds like that is because it's a Ford ! ! 😂😂😂😢😂😂😂...

It’s a trick question. The coyote itself is the most annoying sound in the world

I had the lines from my valve covers wrong and got the same noise. One of my valve covers has a restrictor on one side. Its probably pulling air around the rear main seal.

Did a dual inlet catch can run both valve cover ports to the catch can use one vacuum source from the intake manifold plug off the other vacuum source

Interesting. I knew you would figure it out and will come up with something nice to replace the line. 👍

It’s a ford

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.

What type of front bumper is that on your ford ranger? It doesn't look stock

Ford fucking RANGER 🐎🔧🚗👊💪🇺🇸

I love the vid man, I love what you did. I'm planning on doing somewhat the same thing how much did you spend on the engine and what tips would you recommend?

I love this video!! Can't wait for future videos!

Throwing parts at a problem is always so costly. I don't know how much knowledge the mechanic you're working with actually has, but someone who maintains equipment is a far cry from someone who can diagnose exactly what the problem might be. Learn from your own mistakes and pay attention to detail!

Whatb about Spintechs?

Eventually gonna do this to my 99 ranger, awesome build walk through vids and awesome to see it

I dropping a 347 in my 85 ranger but im trying to figure out what radiator to go with

I have 03 ranger with 2.3 Will rear work with mines

The flow fx is literally a glass pack muffler.

That's NICE! The 4 wheel flat dollies from Harbor Freight would be good if you make a base for those pipes once collapsed. They have two sizes.

I thought about this but ended up making some panels that I attach to hooks on the ceiling when I need to paint. I also thought about running a track around the ceiling and buying one of those heavy plastic curtains to pull around when needed. Your idea works great for your space, well done!

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.

Awesome video! I am looking into doing something similar, I plan on installing a non explosive fan tho not sure what your spraying just a thought, don't want to go boom. Thanks for sharing, great design

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.

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.

How hard was the swap? I plan to do a similar swap for a baja ranger

Sweet ride

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.

Try the FLOWMONSTER straight through oval mufflers they are inexpensive and really quieted my car down significantly give them a try good luck and make a video

You may need to add a J pipe / quarter wave resonater to solve the problem to solve the drone at certain rpm

small block 302 flowmaster 100%

Nice truck. I personally like the Borla S type great sounding not load in the can very clean! Also of you piped out all the way back its going to sound cleaner

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?

Why not vacuum lines for the catch can ( of course oil resistant grade)

Hell ya

So just wondering, with the space and skills you have, why not take body off and have excellent access to everything?

Clearest most comprehensive video about this install hands down. I applaud your attention to detail not just hacking wires everywhere. Question: Did you keep the Thermactor Air Diverter Vacuum Control Solenoid? I’m going to keep my factory A/C and this shares the relay with it. Still intimidating, but I’m slowly getting it.
