So i pulled the plugs from my truck to swap out. went to orielly's and they tell me the computer has listed a 3/4 reach plug as the OEM but both...

so you saw me the other day.. :D
I hear ya on the tapered axle thing! got to do the rear breaks today, third F'n time I've had to rent a 12 inch puller. might as well buy one..
I guess performance is relative to condition in this case. seems like unless I switch over to a hemi top end (read $$$) there's not a lot that can...
it's the "three on the tree". I don't know what gear ratio it has currently but it's geared low enough to prolly pull a train if I needed to.....
