V8 exaust and intake

[djacks222]

I thought I would start a new thread, as the last one we were posting in is no longer about my cams lol.

Does anyone know the size of the T.B, and the MAF housing?
This is what I see and the area I am focusing on.
B.B vacume line connects to the rear of the surge tank, pcv is at the egr location, and another egr in the rear of the surge tank.
My issue, and theory...
I don't like 6 intake ports suckling 6 different angles as it disturbs the natural air flow. And it seems as if cylinders 1,2,5,6 are starving for air.

My philosophy and judjement
My f150 xlt has all the vacume lines in one are, and I like that.
It also had the pcv valve connected through a separate filter like a fuel filter lol,

So I'm installing t's and connecting them into two vacume ports and connecting them to where the pcv valve is connected at. The pcv valve I'll be connecting to the new hole that'll be drilled into the surge tank by cyl 5 intake port.

The B.B vacume line will be changed and connected to a new drilled hole right before the 90* egr mess. This is to hopefully help my therory.


The reason I'm trying things like this is because I hate our intake surge tank with a bloody passion lol.. so much that I want to cut the oNE side off and make a dual t.b. setup... It just needs MORE AIR and a lot more... like heck it's a rocket machiNE at high speeds roaring like a dragon having sex. Lol

Though in it's time, I believe this was true, I think it's only those truly passionate about the Gen 3 that still feel this way, even if the average joe doesn't. I drive around with no rub strips (chunks of magnet strips covering the holes - new 6061 strips on the way and nearly complete), a few minor bubbling/rust spots on trunk, and badly bubbling tint. But I feel like I'm a king with every commute. Don't be surprised if you see your quote above in somebody's sig!

As for your post, I hope we can get a quantitative comparison of before and after in terms of airflow and/or power.

Wow, what an "entousiasm" member maybe more than me, I will let you my member name. (Djacks222)

I remember something I rode before concerning more air in the intake somewhere here about retuning the motor (Kirk Doucette post maybe). He say that the best compression ratio to add hp on this car is around 12:1 or 13:1. If we give a lot more air to the motor, will he always compensate to have the stock 10:1 ratio ?

And read another thing about the motor. Ford limited it's rpm because of the auxiliaries (p/s pump, alt, etc.) but the motor itself can turn at 9000 rpm...

P.S. Don't know the housing for the TB but it's the same part for F150 in the similar years...
