Thats my concern. I was looking to see if I could find a radiator with an additional core and a oil cooler as those two items could help but cant find anything. I plan to tow around 7,000 lbs. Only due it once a year but its a 12 hour drive both ways in the South during the summer.

I just got a fully welded aluminum piece with both engine oil and tranny coolers built in ... 2 core off EBay.

theres a couple ways of doing it, theres usually "meets" where Justin comes out and you drive around for a little and he reads off your computer and fine tunes everything, or if you cant find a meet near where you live, you can do a mail order tune.. you dont need anything besides money lol

edit: looked up to see where they would be at next and i know they just moved to Cali, so he wont be traveling soon.. best bet is to mail order..

no problem.. why couldn't you get your original motor rebuilt? those limited are some special, and with a recon motor, idk if the value will stay once you sell it

I priced a rebuild and the crate was going to run about the same if I needed new heads (read alot of stories of the vortec heads cracking). I am under the impression that the motor is a normal 350...is there a difference between the 99 Hoe 350 adn the 00 limited's 350??

The fact the rims are a Limitied Hoe only item is why I havent upgraded to chrome.

I am not overly concern with resale...I paid $7000 for it 5 years ago and other then intake gaskets, water pump and the dread fuel pump I havent done anything to her other then change the oil and replace the tires! I plan to keep her for another 5 years or more. I still have a 91 Mustang 5.0L LX in the driveway I have had since 96. I get attached to my vehicles, they are like kids, I cant get rid of them. LOL
