A 12V isn't that big of a monster, and they put them in everything. You might need a BL and 7700 bars though lol

I figured you would need a SAS for that. I would love to swap in a diesel they are just to expensive and I don't want to deal with the electrical bs of a swap and the trans issues. If I can keep it NA and put out 330 fwph and 400 ft/lbs of torque I'll be pretty happy

With a Motorcraft valve correct ? Anything other, and it will most likely use oil. Only Motorcraft valves have the correct margins for these things.

The one I took out was a motorcraft but advanced didn't have a motorcraft one in Stock so I had to get a car quest. I have a motor craft one on order right now that.

Also what's the limitations of a stock 4r70? Am I gonna be fine with a street cam and about a 11.1:1 static CR on a mild tune for a while? My trans has a little over 100k on it

Actually what I pulled out wasn't motor craft. Here's the old valve I originally thought that # said 233 but I was wrong. It doesn't look like it's been sucking oil tho. Regardless I have a new motor craft one going in. If I have time tomorrow I'm gonna pull my whole intake manifold, it's time for a tune up anyways. I'm hoping there is oil all in the intake.

I could have sworn I put a MC in it when I replaced my intake manifold but I guess not. I hope that's my issue
