You can get the same general effect by gluing a block of wood to your right shoe. Cat-back, headers, a bored-out throttlebody, electric fan rather than motor driven, that's about it before you realy have to start opening the ol wallet. Then it's multispark ignition, porting, stroking, and or blower/supercharger.

I dont want it to be poppin wheelies when I take off or anything (no NOS).
I just wanted to see if I could squeeze out a little more without having to spend a bunch of money.

Re: more power from 4.0
These trucks came from the factory with a VERY restrictive exhaust. Mostly the muffler and tailpipe. Some of them even had a 1.875 inch tailpipe, which choked the engine at anything above 3,000rpm. I installed a replacement muffler that used a 2.250 inch outlet and a tailpipe from an older model which was also 2.250 inch. You would not believe what it did for my 3,000 to 5,000rpm power. The NAPA part number for the "Turbo Muffler" I used is 17748 and the tailpipe is 44171. You may need a short piece of straight pipe to go between the muffler and the convertor, and you will need new clamps to attach the tailpipe. A caution, anything less restrictive than a "turbo muffler" type will give you an annoying exhaust sound like some kid driving his ricer with a fart pipe. Bruce |

Re: more power from 4.0
Your talking about the muffler being sensitive someone put a little muffler
on this thing (like on on a car) it has the 2.25 outlet and inlets but the stock one is like huge compared to the one on the truck now.

If it wasn't there before then suspect dirty fuel filter or clogged injectors. Also poor spark will cause problems. If all else is fine have him try one range cooler on the plugs. And don't use platinum or splitfire as they cary too much heat and can cause detination problems. If it was always there then he needs to retard the timing a bit and increase fuel flow with either larger injectors or a higher pressure pump/regulator. Some systems use a seperate injector. -- DougW |

Re: more power from 4.0
Dream on. The push button switch is usually on the shift lever, where
you add whatever HP you wanted by the size of the kit's buttons, usually a hundred horsepower, so you won't be doing wheelies, just maybe making that hill you previously stalled out on.
