Thanks for all the information.I knew I could get the answers I needed here.I guess what I'm going to do is take the advice given and find a good set of shorties and go from there. Thanks again for all the help.

I've been trying to find a set of long tube headers for my '88 F150 with a 5.0. The problem is that my truck has a 4 speed and all the long tubes I have found are designed to be used with an auto. trans. Thanks in advance for any help... Johnny

Congrats man...life is good.

Had a friend with the same exact problem with his '95,and he drove the truck everyday and pulled a boat on weekends without OD and never had any problems....Would be driving it now if the barley and hopps had not caught up with him....

great looking truck, congrats..

Welcome to the site..I'm sure you will be very happy with the help you get, All you need to do is ask..

Thanks again for your help, As it turns out the spout connector was within 6" of the dist. I actually found it after I droped a socket and was trying to find it. It is better to be lucky than good. Johnny.

Tune-up almost complete on '88, 5.0, Unable to locate the SPOUT connector so I can set the timing, I checked the shop manual and it does not show it, Or at least I did not see it...

Prayers from NC... Johnny

thoughts and prayers to family and friends.. Johnny

Sorry I left out important information, engine does turn,I checked and do have fire at the plug, also getting fuel to the plugs, also brought #1 cyl. to TDC and checked location of rotory button and it is on #1. Tried a shot of starting fulid still no change.

i have a '88 f150 with a 5.0 that will not start. I have changed plugs, plug wires, dist. cap, and fuel filter,still nothing. I took the Ignition control Mod off and had it tested at Auto Zone ,they said it was bad so I replaced it too. I really need to know how to the the test codes so I will...

I'm Happy to be here,I have a '88 F-150,and a '08 F-150.
