Default random question

Does anyone here know why when I am looking up things like headers and etc. for my 1996 f150 5.0 that they will have headers and things like that for up to a 1995 f150 5.0 but the 1996 models are a little harder to find parts for does anyone know why this is is there something different between a 1995 and a 96 f150 with a 5.0?

MAF allows more Air intake modification while staying within the EEC's parameters. Also comes w/ SFI (Sequential Fuel Injection), a step up from EFI ( Left/right bank fired)

Do you mean MAF to MAP? http://www.dunne-rite.com/ As I said , this was a transitional period , do you have a MAF sensor unit between the air cleaner housing and the air intake manifold? If so, your already there! Including the SFI.

Summit. Just do this & you'll stop thinking about the other stuff: http://fullsizebronco.com/forum/show...ht=timing+bump If you have a distributor ignition system. If not, you have to Mod it EEC.
