Ok so the pistons are metric and none of the local auto parts houses carry the ring I'm guess I'm struck going to Ford.<br><br>Does anyone know if Total Seal makes rings for this engine?<br><br>Plus has anyone installed/used one of 4.0 Performance's Stage 1 cam kit? <p></p><i></i>

Wish I could help you, but engines are definately not my strong suit. Does this mean that the SOHC swap is off? <p></p><i></i>

Due to the fact that Doug explained to me about the HVAC box being in the way and looking at a 2nd gen V-8 and other SOHC HVAC boxes in later "X"s, and there not being compatible with the format, I have decided to rebuild the OHV motor insted.<br><br>We have to have our A/C and heat!<br><br>So in doing so, I'm looking to use Doug's Stage 1 kit and a few other things such as cleaning up the ports on the heads, intake, and exhaust manifolds, free flowing exhaust, and my snorkle, should net me another 40-50hp I hope, not that I ever complained about the lackluster performance of the 155hp OHV just a little extra on tap never hurt.<br><br>Sorry for the buzz kill, but HVAC is a must. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :\ --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":\"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>
