Glad it's looking good!!! Sounds like it's finally coming together👍👍👍

I'm not too concerned of that figure it was showing 15psi at a pretty hot temp (engine coolant @ 200-210°). At the 180° temp its around 20 pounds or...

When you say you have 15lbs at idle, is that with engine and oil up to operating temp? When my truck is hot and oil is not after a good run down the...

Ever considered hydroboost? I would be in line for a kit. Would give Hemi swap guys lots of room and no worries on vacuum for the big lumpy cam guys..

Thanks, yes that's the sole cooling fan it works great throws a good amount of air :biggthumpup:

Nice job. Is that the only electric fan cooling the engine?

Fabbed it myself, it's the 99 Jeep GC fan powered by a Dakota Digital PAC-2750 controller. Yeah I may also have to do that. Might try adding a...

The value is really what the market will bear. For instance, I had a 1986 Mustang SVO with only 20,000 miles on it. When I sold it in 2009, after...

JDream what's that engine cooling fan you're using? Did it come w a shroud or you make that?

The question of "worth" is associated by the majority of buyers to current market standards. In other words "what is something sold or going for...

Lumpy cam. I thought the vacuum might be a little higher, but even so, you may need to add a vacuum motor to your brake system. I am planning on...

How much are you willing to spend?

Hmm so I checked the engine vacuum @ warm idle and it's only like 6" lol. Revving it up a bit and it hits around 15-16" max. Thoughts? Yep, I...

What's AF stand for?

I'm assuming that this one would be more than $22k, considering it's a later model year and the AF RC had about half the production run in 2000...

At auction they can go close to sticker price. A 98 with really low mileage sold for 22K last year.

Were you running a T off the stock gauge source? It looked like the stock gauge was showing higher than 15 psi.

Cool! What kind of vacuum are you getting at idle?

Got it back up and running yesterday, oil looks perfect!! :rockwoot: Got 15 pounds at idle now, much better!

I'm glad I have a lift and an engine hoist now lol.

:biggthumpup: Good luck!

Thanks, doing all that and a few more things. If it works, I'll make a list and post it. If it doesn't work, everything I'm doing has to be done to...

Never tried this job in the truck, but below is a snapshot of the service manual instructions for ya if it helps any...

You can't rent one or find one on craigslist that can be sold after using? I would pull the engine and replace the core plugs while doing the...
