Here’s where I got the reman motor: http://www.teamblitz.com/

I have a full set on a 1985 I think. Whole truck is for sale but I have extra wheels for it

I acquired a 1985 Ford Ranger long bed standard cab 4x2 a couple of years ago as a project. It's in great shape as far as body/interior. No rusted panels, good interior. Been stored in a heated warehouse since I got it. Has just over 100k miles on it. I set about buying all of the bits...

Been since mid-December since I’ve been able to get much done due to work load. Three weeks ago the water pump went out on the way back from Cinci. Second time in 220k miles, but I hate that job on a 4.0......got it replaced and then unloaded the commercial oven I’d brought back. Noticed the...

I’ve had three occasions where I got off without a ticket. Was in Vegas on an expense account. Rented a Z06 Corvette convertible from Hertz. GF and I were headed to see Hoover Dam. Was going 120+ when we passed a NHP trooper coming at us. Lights n siren as he did the classic movie sliding U...

If you’re buying BBQ tanks exchange at the grocery or hardware store around here it’s $20 for a standard exchange. You get 4 gallons (actually less, 15 lbs is the average). At $2.50 a gallon retail, that’s $10 in fuel cost, and $10 gross profit. You’re paying for convenience. I used to lug the...

Don’t confuse gallons w lbs. Propane weighs 4 lbs per gallon.......small tanks are measured by the pound, large (over 120 lb capacity) are by the gallon. Price delivered is between $2.25-$2.50/gallon right now. BBQ tanks typically only have 4 gallons of propane to allow for tank age and thermal...

That’s about what I pay, delivered. I’m on the second year with two bottles. I’m not in my shop every day normally but I was about 6 hrs a day all thru Dec & Jan. Based on a SWAG, I’d say it’s about 150 hrs of burn time per bottle on the high setting. The thing I like about the HF heaters is...

I have a 2000 sq ft shop in a warehouse with 12 ft ceilings. It’s 50 yrs old, cinder block with a flat roof. Zero insulation. The only thing that works for me are propane radiant heaters. I have 4 120 lb propane tanks, each fitted with a dual head unit from harbor freight. I can run as many as...

Mustang rims work w 1” spacers. Mine are 18x9 rims. Got em on craigslist for $500 with practically brand new tires. Mine are Bullitt which look like TorqThrusts. Black spoke machined rims.

Ya sure

You get a full build sheet with all the specs, cylinder pressures, etc. Like I said, very professional.

They build using a stock cam. If you want something else, they can do it during the build you pay extra. My long block had already been built, so I’m gonna pull out the stock cam and put in a stage 1 from Comp Cams before I install the motor.

Here’s their standard build: REMANUFACTURED 2800cc V6 Cologne Motor! 2.8L Six Cylinder Long Block built to tough Ford OE specifications. Carefully assembled and machined to ensure long service life. Complete Rotating Assembly, internally balanced, timed, and ready for dressing. Bored, honed...

They use top quality parts, full machine job, very professionally done. Somewhere in one of my posts is a list of what all they do. They’ll do minor stuff like a mild cam, etc. if you get it ordered before building. I bought already built so I’ll put the cam in myself. Soon hopefully but it...
