This past winter I installed the NAPA XDT. The specs were comparable to the other highly rated batteries. Great starting with all the sub-freezing days we had.

Almost done cleaning parts & ready to start re-assembly. Still need some misc hardware.
Anyone have thoughts on using copper spray gasket with metal head gaskets? (3.5 engine)

My '65 runs a EFI 4.2 and from what I've read If you run high flow cats, or no cats in my case, then backing out the sensors tricks it into running more efficiently. I was growing tired of 10mpg and had an hour to spare so i figured i'd give it a shot.
I thought that was for rear O2s. Does your 4.2 have rear or just front? If it's for the front, would like a pic of what you did & hear what your results are in the future.
I heard spark plug non foulers could be modified for the same purpose.
the cost of the one's online seemed outrageous for what they are. I just welded a 12mm X 1.25 nut (same thread as sensor) on about 3/4 in of pipe, then welded the pipes to the sensor ports. Need to fill the tank up today and then see how it does. I'm probably just wasting my time but i thought i'd entertain myself. Just have two sensors to make the 14CUX happy.
Finally started to re-assemble the 3.5 liters of fury. Cam & timing gear in. Hopefully the rain will hold off tomorrow so I can get more put together.
here's the inside from last weekend
That doesn't look too bad. It just looks like you're replacing the heater core and the headliner.
I need a headlight switch.
i replaced the engine coolant temp sensor, verdict is out seems to be happier

I can pull a headlight switch for you. New ones are cheapish…. $30 at AB.
What was the reason for replacing the temp sensor?

I got most of the engine put back together. I should be able to finish it up today and then move on to the gauge installs.
ESPN radio app was great to listen to the World Cup matches while working in the driveway. It has a major broadcast delay… about 10 minutes from actual match time.
